Hey i realised something about sending a text to multiple recipients. When they reply how do i know the msg is from who? Its like i send to many ppl new year wishes and they reply but i don't know which msg is from who? Any ideas guys? Can't seem the find the solution in LYN and the web.

@Masamune, When people respond to you, you will know it's from them based on the telephone number the SMS is sent to u from. If it's in ur address book, their name will appear. It just starts another 'conversation'

@Masamune, Er.. mine's not replied in the same conversation. A new conversation starts - perhaps u could make another attempt to test it.

Hey guys..check this out.. I text my friends good luck in their finals. And when they reply its all in the same conversation and never state from who. Only in lockscreen there write their name but what if i don't go out to lockscreen? And for my situation when i check my phone 2 messages arrived from 2 of my friends.. Which is which?

Hmmm ..I am using BiteSMS and yes ... i am having the same issue like you ...
It never starts a new conversation it will go into the same grouped conversation ... it only show when the message arrived... and another funny thing is when i tend to reply to that particular person only (I thought i was)... it actually reply to everyone in that grouped conversation ...

Either use the default SMS app or use another sms called iRealSMS.

BiteSMS only does that .. Plus in BiteSMS, in 2.2 .. if you enable Emoji,  or  will be appeared as emoji .. Eventou they send thru other types of phones .. But in my stock sms app, i just see the : ) in normal mode .. Weird eh? This post has been edited by Fighteden: Jan 22 2009, 09:10 AM

@Masamune, It must be the limitations of the app you're using. I use the default SMS app so I don't face the same issues. Obviously, I don't get nice emoji's (it works but it's very ma fan!) nor do I get to forward smses (which sucks actually) *siGh*

yeah but i think the way this problem for now is after sending to many ppl.. Delete the conversation and let msgs come in as new msgs.
