Sending contact as Text (SMS)

I'm new to the iphone community.
I would like to send one contact as a vcard or only contact name and phone number to another mobile as a Text/SMS
I tried but didn't figure out how to do it.
Do you know if we can do that ?
If yes any help are welcome
Many thanks

    You can easily do this by downloading an app called Contact Share if it isn't already installed on your phone.

  • IPhone SDK, any way to send/receive a text SMS?

    I've been looking through the iPhone SDK for a way to send a SMS from my application. Also I'd like to inspect the SMS inbox for specfic messages that have been received. Has anyone been able to send/receive a SMS from their application?
    Thanks,
    Tony

    I think this is a limitation of the Beta SDK.
    I've read that there are many limitations in place for 3rd party-developed apps that are designed to maintain integrity of the OS but I can't see Apple being so Dickensian.
    Hopefully, much more will be unleashed with the full release of the SDK.

  • Curve 8520 cannot send/receive calls or SMS when in range of WiFi - since foreign holiday

    Re-posting this in the Curve forum, where it belongs... hoping someone can help.
    Recently the whole family went to Spain for two weeks. All four of our phones (a Google Nexus 4, a BB Curve 9300 and two BBCurve 8520s) worked OK in Spain, connected to local mobile networks, sent and received texts and so on.
    Since returning to the UK, the BlackBerry handsets have all had problems getting re-registered to our home network (giffgaff, which uses the O2 network, as I understand it). The nexus has been fine from the moment we got back, but the BB handsets are not.
    The symptoms: when in range of a registered WiFi connection, the phones cannot send or receive texts (SMS) or make or receive calls, when out of range of WiFi, they do (sometimes) succeed. It is as though the WiFi settings are over-ruling the service books / HRT for the mobile network.
    The 9300 seems to have sorted itself out, thanks (possibly) to an OS upgrade. The 8520s remain basically useless.
    We have tried: battery pulls, SIM pulls, manual network registration, clearing the service books and re-registering, switching SIM cards between the phones (whichever SIM is in the 9300 works OK, whichever SIM is in the 8520 does not work), OS upgrade.
    The network shows on the handset screen, and connection is shown as EDGE. But calls do not get connected and SMS messages fail with "too many retries". Attempts to re-register the handset result in a message being received that the handset has been registered but it makes no difference.
    The network provider (giffgaff) say they have done everything they can, and I should speak to "an engineer" - but it seems very unlikely to me that all three phones suffered a hardware fault while flying home from Spain, and that the 9300 somehow fixed itself. So I'm convinced it is a registration issue, but giffgaff are not exactly confident in their support for BB.
    So - has anyone ever seen this behaviour before, and how can we fix it?
    Thanks

  • Sending contacts via SMS

    Hi!
    I would like to get your expert advice on the issue we are experiencing with our Z10 and Q10 units and this is about sending of contacts/business cards.
    We are not sure if it is a network-related thing.  Tested on two different carriers as well with the same result.
    The issue is that while BB Q10/Z10 have the facility to share a contact via SMS, it seems to be not working.
    We do it by holding a particular contact that we wish to share, then click share icon.
    From the options, we choose 'Text Messaging, fill in the 'To' field, enter a message and then press the send button.
    While the .vcf is seen to be attached, nothing happens and a red clock icon just appears.
    Recipient does not receive the business card.
    Is this a known issue on BB10 devices?
    Thank you.

    Hi manalotomarvin,
    When sending a VCard via SMS, the BlackBerry smartphone switches into MMS mode. If MMS service is not enabled for the device, you will not be able to send the VCard.
    I would recommend testing the MMS service by sending a photo to another contact via SMS, to see if that will send.  If this fails, I would suggest contacting the wireless network provider, to verify MMS service is enabled.
    Thanks.

  • After transferring my contacts on to my iPhone, I cannot send or receive text messages to some of them. Even if they text me, I cannot reply!

    After transferring my contacts to my iPhone, I can no longer send or receive text messages from some of them. Even if they text me, I cannot send a reply!

    Same problem persists also here. Have crosschecked with friend, all same settings, have deleted the contacted, created again, still that number does not receive my SMS (no question on iMessage). Can not even reply her message. This problem persists with few numbers, nothing common, different phones, different countries, different operators. All others, with different operators, in different coutries receive my messages. Even other people can send their SMS to her.

  • Text/SMS to mobiles sending but not being received

    Hi,
    I've upgraded to Skype 7.1 and Mac X Yosemite and can effectively no longer send SMS i.e. I usually send texts/SMS to a distribution list of about 25 mobile numbers and while the history says "sent" and the credit is taken from our account, no-one is receiving the texts.
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks

    you dont know that it has nothing to do with his iPhone thats not guaranteed he could have some glitch causing it..
    Actually, I do. Delayed SMS/MMS delivery is an all too common problem occurring with all carriers, independent of the phone. It's caused by carrier traffic and local signal conditions at both ends.
    The only way the phone could cause it is if it froze and locked up when attempting to send, then mysteriously unfroze hours later, completing the send command. This would have been obvious to the user.

  • How to send a number by SMS from contact list on 2...

    Guys, I cracked my brains to solve how to send a number from contact list by SMS in 2630.
    Maybe there's no such option at all?
    Please help!!!
    Message Edited by berzerk on 16-Dec-2008 09:24 PM

    I don't think there is such an option on a limited phone like the 2630.
    On phones running S60 such as the Nseries and Eseries devices (and a few others) there is an option to copy a number from the contacts into the clipboard and you can subsequently paste it into a new message. Older S40 phones like the 2630 don't have a clipboard facility to do copy/paste actions.

  • Is there a way to send a message with a photo attached using imessages. I am not able to send a photo to one of my contacts because I am sending the contact a message text messages. I don't want to send contacts text messages. I want to send them iMe

    Is there a way to send a message with a photo attached using imessages. I am not able to send a photo to one of my contacts because I am sending the contact a message text messages. I don't want to send contacts text messages. I want to send them iMessages.

    Kolyei, sorry for the late reply.
    Have your brother create a contact in his phone for himself. Inside his own contact, have him add his phone number and his iCloud address.
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive Have your brother select both his phone number and email addresses where he would like to receive iMessages.

  • HT4528 I just bought a new 4s and I can't send or receive texts. Also when anyone calls me it comes up as unknown but I transferred all my contacts. Is this a carrier issue or is this my device?

    I just bought a new 4s and I can't send or receive texts. Also when anyone calls it comes up as "unknown" but I transferred all my contacts. Is this a device issue or a carrier problem?? I've tried everything. Reset the network and some a hard reset but no changes.

    I believe the root cause is IOS5.01. same problem on my iphone4s with IOS5.01. Now I have a expensive I-touch!  wake up steve.............. I suggest you change your sim cark from 64k to 128k. or just waiting next generation IOS.

  • Cannot send photo or contact as text message

    Running the newest update 8.1 (10/22/2014) on a iPhone 5S. I STILL cannot share a contact via text message. I STILL cannot send a photo as a text message when I select a photo directly from my camera roll/photo albums. I can send a photo in an EMAIL directly from the camera roll/photo albums, but not in a text message. I can start a text message and then click on the camera icon and attach the photo. I haven't been able to do this since iOS 8 came out.
    Sharing a contact and a photo via text messages were things I could do with iOS 7.  Anyone else having this problem?

    With iOS 7 you would open your camera roll or album, select the photo you wanted, click on send as a message, then it would take you to the text screen where you could see the photo being sent as it asked you for the recipient's phone. Now when I click on send as a message it takes me to the text screen, but as you can see, the photo is not attached. Same thing with a contact…I can click on "share contact as a text message" but when it takes me to the text screen, nothing is attached.

  • How do I send a group text without having to type in each contact's name?

    I have the Verizon text app and have a group contact of about 30 people to whom I wish to send a group text. I tried pulling up the "contact group" that the 30 are associated with, but it does not come up. Is there any way around having to type in each name individually? 

        Hey there, MissyGross! I'm sure that I can help you set up a group for your messaging needs. First, I need to know which model device you have. Can you share that with me?

    Hi All - I sent an sms using my iphone 5 - It is PAYG and had no money in it. (stupidly)
    It tried to send as an SMS but gave the 'green button reject message'.(no money)
    Step 2 in this stupidity - the phone keeps trying to send the deleted text via SMS and wont stop notifying me of this. Totally ruining the functionallity of my phone, and more so totally annoying. All I want to do is stop the constant re-trying of sending the deleted SMS.
    Any ideas?
    Many Thanks!

    Hi, many thanks for your help - Pressing and holding sleep/reset hasn't worked, the msg is still continually reporting it is failing to send. I can restore to a previous version however I'll lose my paid apps. Is there any way to work around this. I'm only concerned about one app - Epocam HD which I purchased last month. My last backup on PC is 4 March 13 - before I bought the paid app - Itunes advises me I'll have to re-pay to get my apps (app) back. Even though it advises that icloud backed up this morning at 1:30 am (which although it is before the text, I cannot manually select this restore).
    What a mess!

  • Can you send a text (sms) message from a web site form ?

    Anyone know of a reliable script or app that will allow a site visitor to fill out a 'form' and send an instant text message from the site ?  Same as email...but rather than email...type out and send a text message instead ?
    Thanks, Tim

    Tecnically yes. This is because SMS is basically handled just like an email address, ie; [email protected]
    There are services out there that will charge you either flat rate or per message to send them for you as you would need to know what server that number is on. If you want to have people select what carrier that number is on, you just create a mail form with a dropdown with a list of carriers that then set the domain variable in the TO address field. You have to plan that the user doesn't know what carrier that phone number is on, thus where the pay-for sites come in handy.

  • TS4268 My phone has recently stopped sending iMessage even though it has wifi also it has stopped automatically sending it as an SMS when iMessage isn't working I have to manually get it to send as a text message. I haven't changed any settings. Any sugge

    My phone has recently stopped sending iMessage even though it has wifi also it has stopped automatically sending it as an SMS when iMessage isn't working I have to manually get it to send as a text message. I haven't changed any settings. Any suggestions?

    Try the following:
    Go to Settings > Messages > iMessages > disable
    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    let it do it's thing and reset.
    Then go to Settings > Messages > iMessages > enable
    You'll then have to go back to your Wifi and re-enter your router credentials.
