hello.
HELP ME!
I have done a search for this but it comes back with stuff I have tried so here we go.
When I send a text I get a message back saying "Message undeliverable. make sure the text message address was entered correctly and try again"
So far I have checked the service centre and that is right, then I checked the area code and that is right.
When I put my phone near a speaker I can hear it sending but it has been like this for two days!
Any ideas what this could be?
Oh I have done a soft and hard reset and no change, I am an O2 and have done nothing to this phone for about a month now so no reason why it should not send texts. I can recieve calls, mms, and phone calls to include all GPRS data.
thanks
ok its sorted.
But I am going to leave something here to help others.
If you have the same problem and you are with o2 then what you need to do is check you area code in the contacts this is under options. next check your account service number if this is all correct...
have you had your number changed from another account? if so then o2 have not changed your account properly and you have been banned from the contract service number, try using the pay as you go service number.
hope this helps

I just found your forum and have bee reading throught it for the past few days.
I think this is a great forum as I just purchased an Imate Jam and have resolved several problems from the forum members.
I have one strange occurance on my Jam that I do not know how to fix.
I received SMS's from my service which I do not have the contact number in my address book.
The sms message put's a name from my contacts that is not associtaed with teh SMS. When I deleted teh contact it showed another (The next time I received an SMS).
How to fix this?
It is not a problem...
You mean u got a message from your Service Provider right?
It is possible to send messages without a number in the from field instead it comes with a name. Providers usually send messages like that for conveniance...
It is also possible to do through a software in my Sony Ericsson p910i called iSMS maybe it's one of your friends playing a prank on you...
Let me explain a little bit more.
The message I received is from my service provider 100%.
However, in the SMS inbox it seems to list a name in the from field which belongs to one of my contacts.
Now What I did is remove that contact and waited fro another SMS from my service provoder.
What happened is the from field nows shows some other name that is in my contacts.
My question is, how does the SMS application detrmine the from?
When I had a nokia 6600 it just displayed a number.
Try to find some commonality in the contact like perhaps the first few digits or the last few digits are the same in that case what the provider is doing is that he's sending a message from a special number such as 646, 501 etc... in that case if your numers are not in the international format the phone picks up the nearest alternative name to the number and displays it.. if u save your contact details in international format it does not happen...
e.g +91 ..... in case of numbers from india...
Thanks
Ok I will give that a Try.
How can you tell what number the SMS is from.
When I open it, it just shows the name it has choosen but no number.
ok basically when I input my number on a website and they send me a activation code or test my phone to see if I get their text messages I never get it. The only website that is successful is yahoo but the other ones I'm not especially google or myspace. I tryed it on a wing and on a different phone and no luck I called tmobile and they were no help either. I even changed my number and still no luck. Anyone can help me out please.
what is the phone number that yahoo sent it to?
operators will sometimes disable short codes (or something like that) to prevent spam and stuff, and i'm pretty sure tmobile does that.
Let's say my wife is calling me with her iPhone.
But i am busy or have no network. So my wife decides to hang uop without a speaking a voice mail.
I will get a notification that i have an unanswered call. However... thic call is always logged to the wrong (same) person.
So I get the green 1 in my Favorite Contacts Widget but with the wrong person ?
Is there anybody who knows what i am talking about ? or even better has a cure ?
I had similar problem, at least I think it is similar, because I did not understand you completly.
When you have a missed call while you are unaviable you normaly recieve a text message from your service operator.
Are you trying to say that, every text message you get from your service operator is displayed as if you have recieved it from one (always the same one) contact in your adress book?
i never knew what the green "1" is, i never linked it with missed calls because for me its completely random. for me anyways.
@ bookworm...
That,s exactly what i mean
Does the contact have something stupid in the phone number field on facebook? If you turn off Facebook contact syncing, sign out of facebook and friend stream, restart, sign back in (This is optional), the problem should be solved.
TheOriginalKi is correct. Exactly same thing happened to me.
One of my friends, lets say "Contact A" added "xxx/xxx-xxx" to facebook phone number field. After I linked Contact A from phone to Contact A facebook account, every service message I recieved from my operator was display as if I recieved it from Contact A. After canceling Phone->Facebook link for Contact A, all service messages were adressed correctly.
So your best option is to ask your friend (the one whose name appears in service messages) to edit his facebook phone field correctly, or simply cancel phone-facebook link for that specific contact.
Hope that this helps you with solving your problem.
Cheers
Well now that you mention it.. This person had something weird in his contact. I deleted it (he had a weird telephone number. it was set to unknown) and now everything is fine...

SMSC number is correct and i have tried even wrong ones.
I have tried hard reset and taking battery and SIM Card off.
I have tried different ROMs.
I have tried to restore from backup and use different messaging app.
I am from finland and my operator is Saunalahti.
Hopefully someone can help
I had the same thing once after an RUU install how I fixed it.
Apps>Messages>Menu>Settings>Service Centre Number= you must have a number in this field or you will not be able to send messages.
You can get in contact with your Phone provider to get their number. Or if you have a number it must be the right number for your company..
Hope this is of some help to you.
