Help - cannot send or receive texts! - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

Hi
I'm having a problem similar to Dan
My handset is the Imate Jamin.
It doesn't have any customisation I don't think.
I can make and receive phone calls ok but I can't access the messaging services, send or receive text messages. Whenever I try I get the following error message
Phone
The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds and try again. I've waited a lot longer than that with no joy.
Everything was fine til I got new Orange SIM (upgraded contract). Old SIM was fine. New doesn't let me send/receive texts.
They're not interested in helping....not an Orange phone etc. (although the salesman told me the new SIM would work)
I would really really appreciate any help or advice you could give. Orange have tried sending SIM updates but I never get them (until I put the SIM in another phone).
Here's the details
Model: PM300
ROM: 2.13.9.23 WME
23/02/06
Radio: 1_02.20.21
Protocol: 4.1.13.9
Ext ROM: 2.13.9.123
Thanks in advance for any help!

Earlier Radio Stacks to 4.21

Does anyone have any links to early versions of Radio Stacks for the XDA?
I would appreciate it someone could either email me the files, or the link to [email protected]
("upgrading" to 4.21 has screwed my SMS settings) thank you.
Just as an addition - I'm UK based (not an O2 SIM)
Pre 4.21 RS
Hi.
I don't have your pre 4.21 RS, but have ex O2 XDA's on Voda and Orange and both work fine with SMS's. Is there some setting I can help with or is the issue more serious??

It's with a 3 SIM card..... it won't read the SMS centre number from the card/network..... so we can't send texts.
SMS Message Center Number
Can you not stick the sim back in the original 3 phone and read the number off here. You can usually edit it in the sms settings and read the original one. Or give them a call and tell them your real phone has lost its number etc....
Lucky you, there is no sign of 3 coverage anywhere near my place!
I can't - that's the problem. When going into the SMS settings, the phone says "cannot read from network" and doesn't even give me the chance to input the number.
As for asking for a new card.... we're not meant to be using the 3G SIM in a 2G phone.... or something.
Hang on.... its now working.... a restore has spookily done the job!
Thanks for taking the time to read this, and especially those who have replied.

Xda 2 in the USA

I own an O2 XDA II.
I am using the UK ROM version 1.60.00WWE, rom date: 12/03/03, radio version: 1.10.00, protocol version: 1337.18 and ExtROM version: 1.60.50. I am now in the US and I am suscribing to T-Mobile service. I am able to send sms locally as well as internationally, but I am unable to recieve sms whether or not it is local or international. I called T-Mobile customer service and after 30 minutes, they couldn't help me.
When I insert the sim card into a normal mobile, it is able to recieve sms. I have a feeling that the radio version of my ROM does not support the sms needs here. If any of you would be so kind as to help me, your thoughts and opinions will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

SMS texts
Hi,
I ws in Kansas and Chicago 4 weeks ago for about 1 week. I had no problem sending or recieving SMS on my XDAII. I had the same Rom/ Radio loaded as you.
Although I used my UK O2 sim card it seemed to use the T Mobile network for a large percentage of the time. Before I went I checked that all my phone numbers were in internationl format for message centres e.t.c. is it something like that?

Help - no more SMS

Hi there
I've had my Wizard for a couple of years now. The other day the SIM card decided it didn't want to work any longer, so I had to replace it. Since then, with the new SIM card I haven't been able to send nor receive SMS. I've flashed the ROM and have put a more up-to-date one, but that hasn't worked.
All I get is the message: "Phone - The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds and try again." No matter how long I wait, it never wants to send or receive SMS. I know it's not the SIM card as I've plugged it into different phones and I receive SMS without any problems.
Bizarre - but can someone please help?
Thanks
Dan
i'm really new to this but i'll try to help out. do you have cingular? and are you able to send and recieve text? if yeah to both of these q's, i think i'll be able to help out. if now sorry and good luck.
unfortunately the answer is "no" to both.
I'm on Orange (UK) and at present can neither send nor receive SMS messages. I know the problem is with the phone as I can both send and receive when I put my SIM card into another phone.
It must be something bizarre, as it just stopped from one day to the next. I thought a new ROM would work, but it's still the same!
Driving me crazy!!!!

SMS Not working after unlocking

Hi there,
Ive had my mini s over a year now with O2 and decided to jump ship and change network due to customer service issues. I ordered my orange sim card and then unlocked my xda with lokiwiz.
Everything seemed fine once my orange sim was in until i noticed that i had not received any txt msg's. I tried to send a test sms to myself and i got this message: "The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds and try again." also i cannot access the sms settings menu or options menu when on the keypad screen.
I then decided to upgrade the rom to faria's thinking this could solve the problem but still the same.
Is this a radio rom problem occurring due to the different sim provider's and if so would upgrading the radio rom solve it?
thanks for looking!
even more thanks for your help!
Having problems with missed calls as well.
Tried to update with newer radio roms but get the error 300 invalid update tool.
any suggestions?

Hi there. There is no problems with the ROMs. I have got a XDA Mini S CID unlocked. Has been working fine with Orange Sim card for a year until I lost the Sim card in one of my tests, ordered a replacement one and from that point onwards, has been a nightmare. i can make and receive calls but cannot receive or send messages, a flash message comes up saying " your phone is not ready. Please wait 15 seconds and try again". I have been checking the forum and apparently is because the new sim cards are 3g and for it to work on the xdas it has to be a 2g technology. It´s weird, isn´t it? Check this out.

[PROBLEM] Data usage in background?

Hi, I have a prepaid service with telstra (the main telco in aus), and I have a problem with the credit. Whenever I buy more credit, as soon as I activate it, i recieve the messages you get for when you have less than $10 of credit, and the one for when you have less than $1 credit, and then after trying to message somebody (which usually costs me 1c), I get a message from the sms program saying "Message was not sent" (which happens when the account has insufficient funds for the service). Please help me, I have no idea what is going wrong here, I've already lost $30AU to this problem...
I tried using a brand new sim too, and just activated it fresh from box and it did the delete all the credit thing then too, so I don't think that the prepaid account is the problem. I've deduced that it must be something specific to my ROM and software configuration (As this problem never occured when I was running WM5 Ranju 7.6 or Tomal 8.2/8.5), which is why I have posted it here in the universal specific forum.
setup:
Rom: Tomal's 8.71 for Universal
Radio: Unlocked
ExtRom: Unlocked
CID: Unlocked
Software: None installed which have anything to do with gprs or wap or mms. I havn't got any weather apps set up.
GPRS settings: not set, so that no data can be used at 1.5C/KB (ironicly)
Thank you in advance for any information
Turns out either something was bad in my ROM, or Telstra are dishonest theives. Either way, I'm now running Tomal's 8.9 with Virgin Mobile and all is well.
