Cannot send SMS with Softbank

I upgraded or changed if you will, form Japanese to English...now everything works fine...but i cannot send SMS.

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 don't think you can send an sms from sb to docomo. isn't she using docomo?

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.

Rogers Canada Cab for GPRS & MMS

I created this Cab originally for myself and I have had some requests for it so here it is. If there are any issues please direct them here and I will look into them.
If people are interested I will soon include a cab with the MMS at default 600k, let me know.
Before Installing cab make sure that you delete your old settings first!
Enjoy!
New Cab for VPN users, settings from mangopudding. I don't use these settings, just made the changes from the settings provided.

Grabbed it, thanks!

The new vision stuff isn't on here, the guy that was doing the testing for that for me went on vacation for a month so I haven't been able to finish that off.
I will keep looking into though.
If you have the base settings or anybody else pm me with them, I will get it done sooner that way.

hi lurch how yu doing. i installed the cab and had already manually entered the settings. my problem is recieving ppicture messaging. i can send but not able to recieve any at all. i'm using the softbank x01ht. do u know a solution that could fix this

Have you manually gone in to look at the settings?
If you have let me know what the differences are from what you entered manually, It is possible that the MMS settings didn't completly override the old settings.

ok do forgive for the little naivety that will be displayed...i check in connections and everything is supposedly set up correctly according to the stettings you had written before you made the cab...i also setup the server when i'm gettin ready to send a mms message...just so you know i'm using the new black shadow rom with radio 1.43 is there somewhere else i'm suppose to make changes...when i go to manage existing connections, do i have to setup anything under proxy settings

No leave the proxy settings alone.
Go to messages, SMS/MMS (forgot you had Shadow running), options, click on MMS, and then the servers tab at the bottom, you should only see one thing there highlighted "Rogers MMS"
If you don't let me know. Or if there is 2 different ones there tell me what they are.

Here's a long shot but have you went to send and receive.
Doesn't make any sense?
I had to try myself on the 17745 build, I sent a message to myself and I received no problem.
Is the problem on the other sending end, send one to yourself, make sure that you put in the number like this 9995554444, no prefix and you have to have the area code in there which in my example is "999".
Sorry that I am writing all this out but there are people out there that don't know this and I am making sure that I am being very clear.

Hard reset works to.
I guess you don't want to waste time.
I am at work, but the PC is on, I usually get the messages fast so I will get you through this.
Once you are up and running install the cab file, no need to hard reset, then send yourself a MMS, look at my previous post. tell me if you get it, you will probably get a screen saying that a download is there, click download anyway.

The settings are absolutly identical.
Question did you have any issues before you changed ROM's.

if i'm not mistaken i was able to send it on the wm5 but think the problem occurred when flashed to wm6...i've only been using black roms so far, there was one time when send/recieve was highlighted but i use to get error synchronizing back then asi notice some people did also but now its just not highlighted at all...other than that no problems

Right now all that I can suggest is to try and manually install the MMS, go to the settings and delete the MMS Rogers that is there and make a new one, you shouldn't have to change the connection settings, and see if send and receive will highlight.

Have you checked the telephone number for sending out your SMS?

yes sure i tried to send to several persons

I don't mean the telephone number of the receipient. I mean the telephone number of the service provider. This is the number that you have when you go to start/setting/personal/phone, then go to the services tab, and the number that you see in Voice Mail and Text Messages.
I once experinced the same problem using someone's perpaid phone card in another country trying to send out sms messages, only to find out that the last digit of the telephone number in that setting was accidentally erased by him, hence there was no way for me to send SMS messages using his SIM card.

thank u eaglesteve this was the problem i knew it would be it but i didnt know where to find the place where i put the sms number
thank u very much mate for ur help

Email light and internet/T-Mo HD2

Hi all, I searched to no end and read just about EVERY post looking for these answers sooo does anyone know of a reg edit where you can have the green light flashing when you receive an email? I already have it checked off in settings to "show on screen (does not do this either) and flash Light for "no limit" (I also put the .cab "LED Enabler on it) and also I'm looking to modd the Internet links and have Opera as default like I did to the XML file on my TP2. Last Question is how can I make TomTom the default for opening GPS in "Foot Prints" Anyone know how this is done on my TMOUS HD2 Thx...Tj

hmm noone knows?

Email light: I know for a fact that this was (and remains...) non-working in all the official ROMs and updates. HTC customer service even goes so far as to deny there's even a problem: they swear their green 'new email' light works just fine.
Several workarounds (I suggest not holding your breath 'til HTC gets around to fixing this...):
- PhoneAlarm. The developer has made a fix that will fire the green light. It's a paid app, but does all sorts of other amazing things though (mute your alarms when you get to a specific cell tower or GPS spot, for instance).
- This app by an XDA member: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636439&page=14

just check the box for messaging in an app called bsb tweaks. it works fine on stock roms.

THANK YOU both for the answers on the problem...Tj
WELL the bSb program messed up the phone. Its now showing 2 SD cards and all my programs are not responding on my T-mo HD2

Re: the second storage card: look in explorer, and find out which one isn't your real one. Delete it. Restart your phone, and you'll be in business again. (Your phone couldn't find the apps you installed on your SD card; not a big deal).

ok.
i dont use push email but i can see that it would be a bummer that it doesnt work straight out of the box

What's this got to do with push mail?

well i just figured that those were the only options of getting email to the phone other than sms and mms.
im not familiar with all the e-mail stuff.
so if its not microsoft direct push, what other means are you guys/gals talking about?

I can't get the LED to flash for NEW Email either. Kinda annoying!

Well at least I'm not the only one...Tj

[Q] SMS multi recipients

I am unable to send a SMS to more than one person at a time. It will not allow me to send a SMS to multi recepients, any body any ideas please.

The solution is simple and crazy .. for some reason its really stupid for the OS to expect what it expects us to do..
Solution :: Keep your Data Connection ON when you send the message and yes wifi wont work ..It needs data connection.. why ... I don't know ..

Thanks for that, but my Data connection is always on??

Think I`ve sorted it now, I had to change my carrier settings!! now it seems to be able to send to multiple recipients.
Just got to wait for Camera/Flash sync to be sorted then jobs a guddun.
