XDA II SMS Replying Problem?

Hope this is the correct forum... if not mods feel free to move it
Details are:
Network: o2 (UK)
Phone: XDA II
ROM: 1.60.00WWE
Radio: 1.10.00
Protocol V: 1337.18
ExtROm V: 1.60.50
I have this really annoying problem with my o2 XDA II, where I cannot reply to SMS messages without a failure.
If I write a SMS from scratch and select the contact from my contacts list it will enter the contact number as "07799123456" and the text will send without any problems.
however if I was to receive a SMS from someone and hit the reply button (like we all do) and send the SMS I get a lovely "Your SMS message could not be sent" and it goes in to drafts. When replying it would eneter the number as "Name" <+447799123456>;
Then if I go in drafts and try to send it will show the same error... and keeps doing it. So I have to CUT the text from the message, do a new message and select the contact again and send it... this was it will send the message.
Why does it do this? and is there a cure for it? Its really, really annoying.
Any help you can give will be appreciated!
thanks!

I have the same problem occationally, for me it looks like th eproblem occurs when replying to a contact which have another operator than mine (Telia).

Message Centre
Hi there,
The problem could be occurring if you receive a message from another network. The issue is with a setting which would say "Reply using same centre". This means that the message you intend to send will go directly to the message centre of the other network. Obviously your message will not go through because you are not on that network! If this setting is disabled on the sender's phone and then you try to reply to his message you would not encounter this problem.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

ah right ok... bit annoying though cos I cant tell everyone I know(who has this setting enabled) to do this. There is a paticular contact it happens to and she always has a "Reply Request" enabled (i.e. on my old T-Mobile T610 it would say the user has requested a reply after i read all her messages). Could that be sumin to do with it?
Cant I change a setting on my XDA to send the message via the usual route it goes with it sends a message from scratch? This would work surely?
Thanks for your help, appreciate it!
Thanks,
Steve M

Unable to send large sms

hello guys!
i've been having a problem with my 9100. It seems that i cannot send large SMS's, with more than 160 chars. The bubble appears, and the Delivery notification pops up, but the message doesn't go through; i've tried sending to a phone 2 meters away from me, a SMS with 5 parts, several times with no success, although apparently the message was sent.
Im on a G4 with windows mobile 5 stock rom. The same thing happened to my previous qtek, that was as g3 one.
I would appreciate any help, since i've searched online everywhere and i seem the only one with this problem.
bye

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

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

You get one
Go into the SMS Application and hold down on one SMS, which you have sent---> There you see "DeliveryReport". Click on that ---> You can see the status
P.S.: Sry for my bad english

Thanks alot

Nice to hear.....at the first time i serached for along time, too

They don't actually work properly at the moment anyway, they report that the message got to the network OK, but not to the intended recipient.
What the N1 calls delievered, other phones call pending.

[Q] SMS Problem

good night everyone, here's the following.
i have a Xperia X8 with FroyoBread v.016 and there's a little problem with SMS.
i can receive/send SMS and MMS very well, but i think that this has a little bug. When i send a huge message like yesterday something like 30 pages ( i think it's 30 pages because it appeared 6/30 below send button )
i know it's huge but even when i send a 4 page SMS, the phone can't send it.
it says always -> message not send !
i phoned to Vodafone and they say that the huge message is send without any problem and might be a problem with the receiver. my girlfriend has a phone exactly like mine without any problems and with the same ROM. and the problem is exactly the same when she tries to send me a big message.
is this a bug or a Xperia X8 problem ? :s
by the way, excuse for any error and i'm from Portugal, Vodafone Portugal !
Cheers !

Try to use some other messeging app like GO sms Pro (recommended) or Handcent...

i triyed that but the problem continues. For example, when i write something with "ó" or "á" the caracters that i can write decrease a lot and i think that is the problem :s
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

Did you tried "Split large messeges" function?
