First question what are the 5 icons that are in row ( once you press a certain one the blue light, lights up under it ) i know the second from the left is the bluetooth icon & the last one on the right is for the brightness what are the other 3 icons for...?

Also im trying to compose a gmail email to send and i see how i can add BCC to the email but how do i add a certain group from my contacts to the BCC.....?

Thank for any help in advance

I think you are talking about the power control widget. They are WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, Sync, and brightness

To add a group as an e-mail contact just type in the name of the group. My phone found the group after that (but I couldn't find a way to selected it from somewhere in e-mail app).

Hope that helps!

thanks that was the power control widget & now i know but i cant get that group contact to come into the BCC line so that i may send an email to 30 people

it seems like to OS wont let me find any group name to place in the BCC line or any address line for that matter, HELP................? I can type a few letters and names in my contact lists will show up but not any group names

i just tried it and it worked for me. after typing in the group name (in any field), just tap somewhere else and it will populate (i.e. [email protected])

Well i have tried every way possible, i click on the gmail widget then the bottom left corner to open up a compose mail page then i add the BCC & then i attempt to type the group name but nothing happens on the BCC line or the CC line or even the SEND TO line , i even changed the group name, started a new group with just one person, nothing

 

[timrock]

did you type the full name?

thats right i tried typing in the whole name of the group ( New Flicks ) and nothing happens, i even tried changing the group name

 

[timrock]

not sure what to tell you. it works on both my nexus and xoom.

ok but do u have a group name with at least 5 people in it or more and if so can you bring up that group name on the BCC line, i had no problem with this with my droid X, made sending emails so much easier & fast

 

[MADDMOE]

but do u have a group name with at least 5 or more people in there with different email addresses that you can bring to the BCC line, i can add seperate email address but i want to bring a group from my contact list to the BCC line i have 36 emails i want to send out all at one time

That group i created has 5 people in it.

I typed in the name of the group I created using the people app and after I entered the name and clicked off of it, it showed up with a red box around the group name. Didn't seem to work until I clicked out of the BCC box.
