:? i m just trying the new ROM 4.00.11, and everytime i want to forward sms (or send a new message starting from the left down menu "new messages) and pick up the number from my contact list which every mobile number has a prefix +62 (country number), it automatically delete the sign + which cause me to add again manually the sign + to make the mobile number working. Could anybody help?
I have the same problem, without solution yet. But if you tap someone from contact list and click on the ‘Send SMS’ menu item, the ‘+’ will remain at the beginning of the phone number.
HI All - Does anyone know how to force the phone display to show my contacts as <first name> <second name> rather than the other way a round?
I tried the hack available at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41968&sid=b73d9d6aacdea440d7d0dd916618b70c
but it didn't seem to make a difference
Dear stevep,
After installing this hack, you should tap and hold on the name in the contacts window and choose " File as: First Last " from the menu...
Regards and thanks...
Hiya! Are we talking about the same window? I mean the one that appears in the phone application. I think you are talking aobut the 'tap and hold feature' in CONTACTS app NOT the PHONE app. If I 'tap and hold' when in phone mode...I just get a window that shows all that contact's telephone numbers plus an option to send them a text
Thanks anyway
Dear stevep,
I meant that, after installing the hack, if you tap and hold in the contacts on a name and choose " File as: First Last " from the menu, then the name order is changed to First Last and this should also effect the phone window view.Now you should see the same view order in the phone window...
Regards and thanks...
File as <first> <last>
Hi again - Thanks for the reply
This is strange. The names are filed 'First' then 'Last' in Contacts, but in the phone view SOME aren't. I specifically changed one in Contacts to First Last...and when I opened up the phone window it was showing LAST, FIRST
:x
Dear stevep,
i advice you to soft reset after changing the orders to first last, because the phone window doesnt refresh it self till soft reset...May be this helps...
Regards and thanks...
Names 'order' in Contacts
Sorry...it does not appear to do this even after a soft boot. ie I still get LAST FIRST in some contacts in the phone window whilst they are FIRST LAST in Contacts
Thanks
this is probably easy to fix or just an error on my part.
I'm using the official rom with some theme mods.
So when i go to the contact list, click on a contact and then click the "call mobile phone" entry for that contact, the option gets activated/grey background, just to get deactivated half a second later and it never actually dials the number (same with people in the favorites list)
The contacts are stored on the phone and copied over from my blackstone, so I know the numbers are all valid.
Anyone got any ideas? Any help would be appreciated
[edit]
oh and i can dial just fine when i hiz phone on the today screen, go to the menu and choose "open contact"
[edit2]
I just realized, when I'm on the contact page of a contact (where you see there phone numbers and so on), I can click Menu -> Show more information, which takes me to the "old" contact page (as it used to be in wm 6.1), where calling someone works as well.
So there are ways around this, it's just annoying having those 2 more presses just to call a number.
Since yesterday my hero doesn't receive sms, only sends... Any one knows how to set again my operator's number (I'm under 3 Italia)?
just open your phone app and type *#*#4636#*#*
don't call wait for somting to open after that press phone info or soming like that (the top 1 ) afther that scroll down there is a box if you put the number there it wil do and press save
p.s. don't know the real translation of it form dutch
Entering the sms centre number doesn't affect incoming sms does it? Have you spoke to your network provider?
Tried your sim card in another handset?

Thank's to both, but the solution was that you indicated. I had a new rom installed without normal messaging app, and that - I believe - wiped somewhere the center number. Even changing the sim, all continued the same. But reinstalling the center service number in that hidden menu resolved...
This is how we enter the Message Center / SMSC number in the CM7 build ( as the messaging app doesnt allow us to update the sms number )
First Search for your SMS center number from Google
The go to the following link : http://www.twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode
Towards the center there is a section which has Sender reciever and message on the righthandside, now enter your message center number including the + ( ex - +919845087001 ) leave the reciever and the message blank and hit convert.
Now the first 16 digits is SMSC number, note that and follow the steps below on your android phones
Here you are:
1. Go to Phone Dialer, and press: *#*#4636#*#*
2. Select Phone information
3. Scroll down to bottom of the screen, you'll see the field for SMSC setting.
4. [Optional] Click Refresh to see current SMSC number.
5. Change the SMSC number as you want. Then, click Update

Try entering 0791198958004544 and it should work.
I was in a similar situation as somehow my SMSC number was updated to 00 and my SMSs were not getting delivered. Followed the steps from the OP and now all is well
This solution worked for me the best:
Code:
AT+CSCA="+380910440601",145
OK
AT+CSCA?
+CSCA: "+380910440601", 145
OK
The manual for +CSCA command is easily googlable. (can't post actual link because of spam protection)
I could only receive sms and not send. I am glad I found this thread. Followed the instructions from first post exactly and all is well again, and now I know what the smsc setting is for and to not delete it
Thanks anupsnair

I am glad too I found this thread. After following the instructions, I had to do a phone re-boot to get it to work. Now I am able to send sms.
alphabet size must be 8 before converting the normal smsc number.
Worked for me
This solution worked for me like charm.. thanks a ton.. i've looking for solution from quite long time... thanks again
Galaxy SL I9003
Tried this method on galaxy sl with RemiCS. Worked perfectly. Thanks.
It worked for me great!!! I used the first 16 numbers I have A Samsung galaxy Nexus I9250 running CM9 Nightlies ... Thanks again!!!
Thank you! My phone's finally fixed. Although, I'd suggest putting reboot at the end of the steps cuz it didn't work for me until i did that. Anywho, thanks for the advice

Try using quotes.
Source: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/SMSC_Updates#Updating_your_Phone.2FTablet
Or you can try entering your SMSC number through an older phone. Ex: in my s3 i wasn't able to change the number neither from messaging app nor *#*#4636#*#*. So i put my sim card in my older phone (nokia 6131) and tried to send a message and then a popup appeared requesting to type that center number (without quotes) and it was confirmed correctly, sending the message after that.
