You just get a notification when your sms is delivered to the receipient...
HTH
Stefan

it sends you a confirmation SMS when your SMS has been consigned on receiver device (if he's out of coverage or with the device turned off you will not receiive the confirmation until the receiver is became reachable).
tested on Imate JAM, works perfectly.

imate jam already has this built in? check the options out when creating a new message it will have a tick box saying: Request message delivery notification

@gazzaman: yes, but you have to check it every time. This defaults it as checked.

ah cool cheers didnt know that

i wonder to know how to read SMS from SIM card?
anyone knows?

O2 Delivery reports
I don't get delivery reports with O2; I've read about a code that you need to enter before the message but is there any other way to activate it - who watched watchdog tonight o2 got a slatting :-(

O2 Sms delivery reports
To force an SMS delivery report on the O2 UK GSM network prefix the SMS message with *0# followed by the message. Example *0#Hello......
Incidentally, there are codes which can force an SMS message to screen, etc. but it is so long since I used them I have forgotten - anybody remember?

If you use that code to get a delivery report on O2 tho, if the receiever chooses to reply to your SMS, they will not be able to send the message. Not sure why this is, but I had this problem and after a little googling discovered that it's a problem with the way that O2 implements delivery reports!
Why oh why can't O2 just do it the standard way?!? Then we could just use the delivery report check box as well instead of having to type a code!!!

SMS Deliver.cab

Can anyone configure the below app to work with WM5? below is the version for the older handsets.

even better, this one works on my Jasjar.
I tried this one; it works.

Just tried it on my mda pro, doesn't seem to work?

Why on earth would you possibly want to put this cab file onto the phone?
If you go into the Options for Text messages on the phone you tick the box that says request delivery notifications and you will get your delivery reports. Have you not had a look through the options or the manual yet?

yes but the i-mate handsets have never had the option to permenantly keep the Delivery report options on as with other normal handsets, and the above cab files resolve this issue so for every txt msg you send you dont ahve to go to options and select the check box.

For some reason, with the O2 xda Exec, even using the built-in delivery notification option, I don't receive delivery notification even when the text is delivered to another O2 phone. Any ideas?

Did this ever work before on any other handset?
As from what i know o2 dont support delivery reports, for some reason if your on o2 then you need to type *#0 and then your msg, then you will recieve a deliver report, well thats what i have to do on my o2 line.

That's terrible! I'm new to O2, and before on T-Mobile and Orange I could just tick the box. Any other way round it that changing the phone number?

You dont need to change the phone number, in your main msg you need to add the above as text in the beggining. Or you can quicken things up by adding it as a 'My text' feature within the phone.

I understand now, thanks, however if I send a message and the text is, for example:
*#0Hello
The other person receives a text message with "*#0Hello" in it and I get no report back :?

CJS try *0#<space> then your message

Nope, no good already tried it

CJS I've just sent a message using "*0#" and it works no problem mate

Oh! ump001 said "*#0" and then when you said try it with a space I didn't notice you'd corrected it to "*0#". That works just fine, even without a space. Cheers!
Ouch though, all those tests with the wrong code really hit my credit

Re: even better, this one works on my Jasjar.

Does it work on O2, bypassing the need for *0#?

O2 simply don't have delivery reports as per standard on their network. The only way to do it is with the *0# option in the Subject title (thereby ensuring you have the "space"...

CJSnet; sorry, I'm on T-mobile. Delivery reports working fine for me, but I know that KPN NL doesn't support them. I always get a message back that sending was succesfull, even when I know that the phone I'm sending the message is turned off...
Anyway, to go short: I don't have experience with O2

I've never really understood why o2 have to be different and be the only network not to have delivery reports. Could it be cost???? come on o2 stop being cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SMS delivery notification ?

Well, its been a while since I am trying to get sms confirmations but they dont seem to work.
Everytime I enable the checkbox asking for confirmation but all i get is SMS sent message which is almost instantenous. I know there is a tweak to activate sms delviery notification by default so that you dont have to click the checkbox everytime but nothing works.
I saw a program which allows you to get your contact name in the delivery confirmation but in my case I just dont get any confirmations.
Using: qtek 9100 with factory ROM 9/22/05 on cingular.
Or could it be a cingular problem ?
Guys, please let me know

Could be your network operator's problem, could also be a problem with the recipient's network operator. Both networks have to support the feature. Try with somebody else's SIM for an entirely different network - preferably after making sure that it works for them on their phone; assuming your device is SIM-unlocked.. if not, either unlock it (void warranty and whatnot) or just ask Cingular whether it's supported at all (good luck getting an answer beyond template replies)

Thanks for the reply. Well, I see your signature and I have the same device with the same ROM as yours. Do you have this problem ? Are you able to get delivery notifications. IF yes, then please let me know which provider to do connect to.
I tried calling cingular, and they were so dumb that they started giving me solutions like poweroff and on your phone etc. So i just had to cut it short with them.
I wish they had a technical support team.

well, sounds like you got fed "The Script" by cingular... a bunch of places with support sites have their people read a 'script'... it's long, tedious, and very often for people like 'us' who do know what they're doing it'll feel rather ridiculous and pointless. If it's a free number, though, walk through it - if nothing else they'll give you a case file at the end and somebody higher up to talk to. Could ask for the higher-up from the get-go, but they tend to ask you whether you did all the things the lower-down asked you to do, and if you say 'no' or 'yes' (lied), they just send you back
Anyway, on to your question...
Yep - it works fine for me. I'm using a Lebara Mobile SIM, which used to connect to the Telfort NL network, but appears to be connected to the O2 NL network at the moment. I've sent text messages to people in NL on Vodafone and Orange, to one person in the USA on Verizon and one person in Australia whose provider name I don't know They've always worked for me - always getting a "delivery notification" text message - typically just a few seconds after sending, though I've had it happen that it took several minutes as well.

This could well be the network as I had a similar problem when I was back in the UK recently and connected to O2. They don't support deliver confirmations on their network as standard but you could add a 4 digit sequence to each outgoing text message that would then give you a delivery message back. Pain in the ass but it was fine for the week I was back.

I'm on T-Mobile in the UK and I know you can prefix an SMS with *0# to get a delivery report issued. I'm using that quite a bit at the moment as the normal delivery report notifications don't seem to differentiate correctly between pending and fully delivered messages - i.e. on my Vario both report that the message has been delivered, which for a pending message is completely wrong.
Do other people get this problem too, by the way? Using *0# option you can get a full pending or a full delivered message, complete with the actual delivery time/date info and the system's message-ID number so you can match the pending report to the delivered item.

*0# didn't work on my Lebara (from PPC to old phone)
but it did work on Vodafone (from old phone to PPC)
funnily enough the *0# remains part of the text message on both ends
Edit: and looks like vodafone charged me an extra 3 eurocents for the service %)

Did you remember to leave a space after the # ?
I didn't the first time and it was delivered with the message )

Oh this is something I didnt know, so I should try it. Not sure whether cingular supports it or not but lets see. By the way when you say prefix an SMS, do you mean the number to whom we send the sms or the sms text ?
From v8Dave's response I guess you have to prefix the txt with this code. Can you confirm ?

With O2 you prefix your message with it and the network strips this off the message before sending to the recipient. Remember to add a space after it otherwise it does not work and the recipient gets the whole message with the *0# at the start.

Yep - tried that after googling around to see if I'm doing it wrong on the wizard and noticed that somebody mentioned that it was "star zero hash space".. still gets sent along %) Very odd
~ Z

On T-Mobile UK, the *0# (star zero hash) message prefix is correctly stripped off the message whether you use a space afterwards or not. You still lose 3 characters from your 160 maximum, though.
Could someone confirm whether they have the same problem as me with their normal Delivery Reports system though? i.e. when I send an SMS to a phone which is currently switched off, I get a "Delivered" report on my Vario almost immediately, and then another identical "Delivered" report whenever the SMS really is delivered to the recipient's phone. The first report should say "Pending", of course.
It works correctly when I use the *0# method, so I'm wondering whether the T-Mobile software in the Vario is re-wording the delivery report in some way, but getting it wrong for "Pending" status reports?

SMS Delivery notifications on O2 Exec

Since the day I got this new Exec I've never received a 'Delivery notification' after sending SMS messages, as opposed to 'Text message sent' popups.
The 'Request delivery notifications' is checked in the options for Text messages.
Anyone else on O2 have the same problem?

YES! Yes yes yes. I've got precisely the same problem, including having the 'Request delivery notification' checkbox ticked. I've been trying to sort this out for quite a while but had no success as of yet. If anyone has encountered this and fixed it, please post the solution here!
Mach

Surely it must not be something that O2 supports?

How/why could they fail to support SMS delivery reports? Kinda basic innit? Perhaps I'll contact some other friends who use O2 and ask if they get delivery reports using dumber handsets.

I found an interesting post on another forum:

But unfortunately my registry settings have 'SMSDeliveryNotify' already present and set to 1

delivery reports for sms on O2 Network
HI,,
Just a Quicky....
O2 doesnt support delievery reports on the network. Thats why you never get a delievery report even if you tick the relevant option on your handset.
The only way around it is, key *0# before each msg you send (in the body of the msg) & you will recieve the report.
Thanks.

Thanks for the info loodi

Seriously?... Anyone have any idea why this might be? I only switched to O2 a couple of months ago when I got my Exec - always been with Orange before, who were very good to me (yes, including delivery reports!). Is there some sort of cost incurred to the operator perhaps?

Delivery Reports

I like to have delivery reports turned on, however I don't like the fact that it is the same tone as my sms.
Is there a way of assigning a different tone to delivery reports or even have delivery reports turned on, but not receive an audible warning, but just a message only?
Thanks in advance

i put delivery reports on but never get them. think its o2 uk network. i dont think u can change it, as its not in the sound settings as a choice that u can change. maybe there is an app somewhere that gives u more options that u could install.

O2 don't handle delivery reports in the same way as other networks.
You can get round this my putting *0# at the beginning of your text message. It's invisible to the recepient, but tells the GSM network to send you a delivery report.

Vodafone does have the capability and I do like them, just not the same tome or any tone....

thanks tried it and it worked

Can anyone still help with this one please?

This won't work because the delivery report is a SMS too.
The phone do not know that it is a report.
