first off when i send a text message.....why does it have to vibrate every damn time it sends?? I cant find any way to turn that option off.

how do u send test messages to multiple people??

On a full charge why did my battery last about a day and have like 20% left?

Somehow my wife (the most technically inept person in the world) figured out how to turn that off on her 8525. She doesn't remember what she did, but she had an 8125 before. Keep looking...

i tried and cant find it. i go to the sound and notifications and nothing will do it. If i put the phone on silent yea it does it but i cant figure out how to turn it off when the phone is on vibrate.

When its on silent there is no sound at all.

When its on vibrate it vibrates after i send a text and also shows a little screen saying it sent the message.

most annoying thing ever!! maybe thats why the battery is dying so fast since it vibrates when it sends and recieves text messages.

Go to Start/Settings/Sounds & Notifications on the Personal Tab. Then click on the Notifications tab. Then in the Event dropdown scroll down to all the Messaging menus. Check each one and verify that there is not a checkmark in any of the Vibrate boxes.

Not possible through the menu. If you are comfortable and familiar with editing the registry, then this WILL work.

Many people find the "Message Sent" notification that pops up after a successful text message to be annoying. Here is an easy registry hack to disable it. This will require a registry editor.

Disable the "Message Sent" notification after sending a text message by following these steps:

1. Navigate to: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox
2. Create a new key "Settings"
3. Create a new string value "SMSNoSentMsg" and set the value to 1

fit4cat hermes tweaker....

and as far as multiple recipients, just start typing in their names and they come as a contact.

Battery life? reduce backlight, do less calls and data transfers, etc.

There's a great program out for doing certain registry changes including turning off the text message sent indicator without going into the registries. It's called fit4cat hermes tweaker.
