SMS Template

[Tex-Twil]

Hello,
is there a way to configure the SMS with a given template ? I want that when I create a new sms, it starts with a *T# by default.

Thanks,
Tex

Nope sorry.

I have never heard of any way to do that.

i dont think so other than keep the *T# copied so you can just paste it. there may be a way in one of the jailbroken aps

Just curious, what does that do?

How about setting up a Contact by the Name of *T# ????

Then that should take care of a lot of the problem.

But maybe this is a dumb answer since I don't know what it does either.

What's *T#?

If I write this at the beginning of a sms I got back a delivery report.

Thats really cool.... I am still reading to find the US AT&T one

You'd think the phone companies would make the SMS delivery confirmation message standard. And charge for it.

On AT&T, I have sent all of the ones listed on the site above to myself.
The only ones that purge the info before the message are:
*N#
*NOT#
*noti#

I sent those to my own number, and received the text without the *N#, *NOT#, or *noti#. All of the others came through. However, I didn't receive any acknowledgment.

Would you mind discussing the delivery report related information in another thread. This one for example. I would like to focus here on how to insert a text from a template

cheers,
Tex

Sorry, I got off track.

To coin a phrase 'You can't get there from here'
I.E. - You can't do it within SMS

However, from email, you can send it by emailing the phonenumber@carrier
You could send an email and keep a copy for forwarding, or place the *T#, or *N# (depending on your carrier).
In email, for AT&T, it would look something like this: (The txt in BOLD is your signature)
To:7777777777@txt.att.net
Subj: blank
Text:
*N# (You could insert your message here)

The only problem is, from email, the person receiving the txt msg can't reply. CORRECTION: Actually, it does reply by sending the reply back to their email.
