Just so others can help properly it's worth checking that your text messages are not being received despite the message. For a while I got the message cannot be sent messages but in fact they were being sent!

Oooooh! Not good, hope you they were not sent I ended up with repeated messages sent all over the place. Maybe you could check by sending message to yourself.

well...i sent msg to myself and it works fine, saying "message successfully sent" but all other numbers it still wont go.

I see a reply from qtotter which I don't follow but may well make sense to you. Just in case qtotter does not have the explanation the following may help.
When I had the problem I began to notice that some numbers worked and some did not according to the message sent pop up. (as I said before all were actually being sent).
In my case it turned out to be to do with whether the numbers were on SIM on Phone or had been imported from SIM. As an experiment you could try re entering one of the numbers that appears not to work and saving it. Then try it again, if it's the same as the problem I had you may find the same number now works. Worth a try?
Mike
i guess what qtotter meant was that SMS in Japan is only possible between Softbank(Vodafone) and AU. Docomo doesnt support SMS...
For the x01th (hermes), it is the only phone in Japan without a proper email address connected to the carrier ( at least to my knowledge, maybe Willcom`s awesome W-Zero series has no email...dont know)
About the issue with the sms...i will look into the contact list/ sim issue.
Guess i will send some SMS and Cmails (AU) around.
Thanks for the tipp....

it's more like there is no way to get an address with x01th and use it on x01th by default. firstly, if you put your sim into another sb phone and go to Y!, you can get an account. secondly, if you install an mms client in x01th and set up vodafone/softbank mms setting, you can actually use mms on it. there is still some problem which happens once in awhile, but it works most of the time.
by the way, zero3 comes with an email address.

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.
Andre
*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 # ?

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?
Andre
Can you send to an email account using SMS?
everytime I try I get the error
"Cannot recognize one or more recipients or the address is not valid. Would you like to send the message anyway?"
"Yes or No"
I click "Yes"
and get
"The text message account cannot be used to send email messages"
The reason I am needing to do this, is because my mail servers at work are blocking my MMS mails, but my text messages get through fine, if I reply to one.

I had them "White list" my email account, because 1st it was being blocked because it was all [email protected]. NOW it is being blocked because when you send an MMS message from T-mobile, it attaches GIFs, so the spam blocker don't like that, and still blocks it, but the spam blocker will allow my text messages to come through.
I can't send an actual email because I don't have data on my account.
Alright, well the simple solution that I see it to get just some kinda regular free email adress from somewhere, or use one that you got. The way that T-Mobile's MMS stuff works is just how you described it, they attach GIFs to the messages when you send them, whether they where there or not.
I would just get a Live or AOL email adress and send them that way.
i send emails threw MMS, i dont put a pic in but i type my message were its says "type here" n they get it and are also able to replay.....give that a shot

AHA!!! Therin lies your problem! I did not know that you didnt have a data plan! Well, I just did a little bit of research, the those GIFs that are attached to each of your messages is T-Mobile branding, which I beleive is tied to the T-Mobile ROM.
Which ROM are you using? If it is the official T-Mobile one, than I would suggest trying a cooked ROM from here and seeing what happens.

I believe after a routine startup sync, you should recieve an alert. I get all my voicemails amd missed texts...not too sure I helped, but im puuuurdy sure that unless something is wrong, you should recieve anything missed upon reboot.
Could a senior confirm?
Well this is a little different I was testing a ROM when I was supposed to get a few messages, I didn't, now I'm running DamageControl with the MMS fix but I don't know if I can get these messages now.
If you're on Sprint, you can see all your sent and received MMS messages online. I'd post the link, but this is my first post. Google Sprint PictureMail.

Visual voice mail receives its updates via sms, if the app is installed it will intercept these and you will never see them ...
If you have VVM setup and no longer have the app on the phone due to a custom rom then you will see these messages ...
Easiest thing to do is grab the VVM cab and re-install it ...

thats certainly very interesting. thank you for that however, wouldnt i need to have gotten a voicemail in order for this situation to occur, if we follow your logic?
i have not hasd a voicemail in quite a few days now. iis this a recurring ping via sms or must it be triggered by an actual voicemail?

Yes I do believe it is sort of a "Keep Alive" sort of thing and it may also be a trigger to tell the VVM app to check , or for it to send any changes you have made to the settings ...
i set up vvm, still getting this annoying text. surely i am not the only person to ever get this and surely it must be something?
anyone?

i have gotten these too, ever since i switched to custom roms..... but i've learned to just live with it.... still hoping for a solution though
Weird, I got them Until I setup VVM app, then they went away ...
i get the same thing, almost on a daily basis! i've set up vvm but it still sends me these txt... and for some reason i also get previous txts from my gf with the sim icon next to it as well.
I get them every now and then. I have the stock ROM and did not set up VVM. I learned to ignore them. I don't even delete them anymore.
Hi to all,
Unfortunately,for several days unable to send massages from WildFire.
When i trying to send msg i get notice-"unable send message after multiple attempt".
By the way i tried to enter into a 'Service Center' but there isn't option to change something there.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.
My girlfriend has the same issues with her Wildfire, both using the buildin SMS application and with ChompSMS.
Some times she gets the error too (several times a day) and she has to resend the messages. The really weird stuff is though, that the receiver actually sometimes do get the message the first time resulting in that the receiver gets the message several times.
And I have the exact same issue with my Desire.. Right now I'm searching high and low for a solution. I've talked to my provider (BiBoB, Denmark, using Telenors network), and they've told me that they could not see anything unusual about the message, so it would either be our phones or our SIM cards.
Since some others have problems too, I suspect Android.

I think it something wrong with my sim card,because,if i change the phone to desire i also can't to send sms.and another sim cards works fine with wildfire and desire.
so i need to check with my provider what the problem.
Facebook to blame for identical problem
Had this problem with my wife's Wildfire last night. Turns out, Facebook was to blame.
The number of the person she was sending the text to changed on Facebook to the format "447### ######" instead of "07### ######". The link between the contact on the phone and Facebook meant the Facebook contact number became the default for that person and as the number wasn't valid, it failed when trying to send a text message or dial a voice call.
Fortunately, the contact in question was me so I removed my number from Facebook and the one on the handset started to work again....

Are you trying to send an SMS or MMS ?
For MMS you need to configure the APNs of your provider:
