At minimum, 5 fiddly clicks from the Today screen to editing a new SMS.
Anyone know a good short-cut?
Please ignore me...
Just found this thread on page 2:

thanks!
this already have an open thread with 2 cabs in it I perfer the cab I posted but anyway try searching first next time buddy!
You may want to check out PocketCM. I love the interface and the Threaded SMS view. Very simple and clean.
You simply click contacts, click the contact and then click SMS. there you will see all sms conversations (which you can scroll) your messages are a different color then the contacts and a text input area at the bottom where you just start typing and click send.
I know this isn't what you were talking about but i have gotten very use to this and found it much faster after using it for a couple of months.

As I mentioned in one of the other threads, what I do is start with the contact... from the Today screen, click contacts, select your contact whichever way you like to do, then select "send text message". You're now at the point of editing a new text message. Since all the steps you did to select a contact you would have had to do anyway, those clicks were all "free". This is actually much shorter than if you had the "new" command that people are clamoring for.
Hi:
I am brand new to the AT&T Tilt. I used to have a Palm Treo 750, so this is very different for me. I have searched the forum but can't seem to find an answer (sorry). Is there a way to turn off that annoying message sent pop-up every time a text message is sent?
Thanks
A part of me wants to reply with the "go SEARCH noob" that I've seen occasionally here and a lot of other forums.
BUT ... since I've gotten so much help here (even if I read till my eyes bled) here's a good way to go about it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333898
Thanks so much. I honestly did search, I tried SMS, SMS disable, SMS notify, and came up with nothing. I didn't even think to search for text. DUH! I am sorry for my stupidity
Is there any SW which will show the Text messages one by one. Mine is showing in a Conversation mode ( Ex- If i send 10 different messages to a person it's showing as a Single message). How will i disable it? Pls help ...
Dear ithehappy,
Let my introduce you to the wonderful search function. Most, if not all, of your questions are already answered you just need to find them. Search is how you will find them.
If you wish to disable Threaded SMS. Do a search for your information and you should find it.
Also, If you notice my Signature has a like to the Kaiser FAQ Wiki. Check it out it has a plethora of information.
Sincerely,
JimmyMcGee

is there a way to add multiple recipients to an sms message

i think what you mean is be able to do a "group" send but i don't think so that is one of the options available under the sms application that comes on kaiser. You could search around for one that does enable that though, as i don't know of any (not that i ever looked for one, only text occassionally ).
when you create a new sms, where you put in the person you send it to, what i do is, hit the hard center button, and that brings up contacts, after you select the contact you want it returns to the send part of the sms, just keep repeating that process till you have all the people that you want to send it to. see if that works for ya or if thats what you wanted.

Cheers - hadn't realised you could do that - was fed up with having to go through each menu everytime. I think I'll try it that way before I put more software on my device
Thanks again
hi there!! i wanted to know if there is possible to sen d an sms to more than one person at the same time... in my older nokia, i could creat group in contacts, or when i sent messages i could check the contact and tick those i wanted to sent messages at the same time for all...
but i don't know how to do it in diamond...
Add Recipient, then go and add next recipient then add next recipient?
if your going to mail all of them often save on in drafts and reuse it
EDIT: In the SMS go to NEW then in right down corner go to menu->Add Recipient
no, that's not the ideia...
what i want is to send one message but not just to one person, for example, i want to send a message saying "good xmas" to 50 persons at the same time...
but i don't know how to do that..
When in the new message, in "To:" click add recipient under menu, find the person you want, add him, and then click add recipient until you get all the recipients you want.
it works the same way as a email in Outlook. (on your PC)
I think this freeware is what you are looking for:

Erm, are u Trolling ?? Diamond is capable of sending to multiple people one SMS in one step, just do a new SMS
then go to menu-> Add recipient for the 1st person
then go to menu-> Add recipient for the 2nd person
then go to menu-> Add recipient for the 3rd person
... and so on
and all will get ur Happy Xmas
as i sayed earlyer ... so whats the prob bro ?
Exactly what I'm looking for as well, although the application posted above is good, is there anything which adds tick boxes to contacts so that you can select more than one contact instead of groups.
I know you can add and then add again but that is just annoying especially when you move from Nokia to WM...
just start writing their name in, then select them when i suggests the right person, and then start writing the next one!

Was that directed at me?
If your read the original request properly, the OP is looking for a way to send messages to many people without having to repeatedly tap "add recipient". You haven't provided a solution.
If you read the link I've posted, you'll see that it adds the ability to select any number of contacts using check boxes without the irritating repetition.

The above application does allow individual contacts with check boxes. After selecting a group, including the "All Contacts" group, the next screen has the check boxes.

I see.
The OP wasn't very clear, I guess I only understood him (or her) because I had been looking for a similar application. He also failed to thank you for your original suggestion.
However, it's best to not to acuse people of trolling just because you haven't understood their question!
sorry guys... i couldn't use my internet for a few days, so i couldn't read alll these messages.... first, i want to thank for the help...
and them maybe i wasn't so explicit as i should be.... but what i want is a way to could send one sms to a lot of people from my contact, but avoid to add recipient, then select one person, then go again to add recipient, then select another contact, and then again add recipient, select another contact, and so on... lets imagine i would like to send the particular message to 50 persons from my contact list... i would take an eternity... so i was looking for a program that allows me to go to add recipient, and inside it i could select those 50 persons that i want to get my message, and no add recipient, select contact, another add recipient, selecet another contact, and again add recipient,bla bla bla....
ok? was i cleared this time? hope so, sorry for my english guys....
i think that way it could be more easy to send mesages to a group of people, right?
