The problem is not related to the Connection Setup, I fixed it by this way:
Insert the SIM card in some Nokia phone and add manual the SMS center number, save it and now everything works (this number is stored in the SIM card's memory).

SIM Card is full message

I have a new Touch HD. I have started to regularly get a message on soft reset saying that the sim card is full, and I won't be able to receive any text messages unless I delete some. The Sim card is patently not full as I can still receive text messages, and there are only a handful of text messages actually on the sim.
I tried looking for some setting to send the SMS to phone instead of SIM but couldn't find anything.
A search on the internet seems to indicate that this is not restricted to the touch HD, but also affects other WM 6.1 devices.
Can anyone help me get rid of this message?
Please help. This continues to pop up everytime I soft reset my phone.

I had exactly the same problem on my HD using a Silvercard with two phone numbers inside.
I solved it with a simcard reader and a simcard editor software.
I found 25 blank SMS in the draft folder (very strange).
After deleting all the blank messages the problem disappeared.

I thought that the outlook connector on the WM devices could access the messages on the SIM and remove them but I'm apparently wrong. I've got the same message popping up and the same 10 messages keep reappearing in my phones inbox every time I reboot.
Unfortunately I don't have SIM editor device / software... My only thought so-far is to put the SIM in an old nokia and delete the messages with that... now can I find an old nokia and persuade it to take a charge, that it the question...

HELP - new HD2 voicemail status icon stuck

Hi,
Hopefully one of you guys may be able to help.
I've just upgraded to a HD2 from my old Diamond. It seems ever since I've had this handset (3days now) there's a status icon always showing that I have a voicemail but when I check I have none and neither do I have any messages in the 'voicemail inbox'.
Tmobile have re-created the voicemail box which cured it for a few hours only for it to come back!!!
Tmobile are suggesting that my SIM card is too old and needs replacing. Before I go and do that has anybody here had a similar problem and maybe found a solution?
Cheers.
hiya,
did you get this sorted? im having the same issue
Voicemail stuck
It seems (I think) that if I leave myself a message and then go into voicemail, clear it but stay on the line until the voicemail icon disappears then its cleared but only till the next time I reset the phone and then its back! Best I've got so far...and haven't got the SIM replaced yet but I think that seems doubtful anyway!!
It seems it may be a 'feature' of the ROM I have (1.43) but I'm a little loathed to update the ROM as its tied to Tmobile. What ROM are you?
Cheers,
John
I have exactly the same issue with an Unlocked Toshiba TG01 (originally on Orange) running Windows Mobile 6.5, on T-Mobile UK.
It's rather annoying
Give your service provider ( t-mobile, orange, o2 ect) a call and there can reset your voice mail box.
There will leave you a message and then you hear it and delete it and restart the device and the icon disappears
Hope that works
I have this problem now - I had a voicemail from my old provider and didn't pick it up.
Now got a new provider and the voicemail icon is stuck. I can't get a reset though as my current provider doesn't even offer voicemail!!
Any ideas?
Same Issue
I've got an AT&T HTC Pure and I use YouMail.com.
I have no saved messages, no current messages. I've tried adding a message and deleting it and stil the phone says I have 1 new voicemail.
I have even hard-reset the device and no change. Oh, yeah, I also tried changing the voicemail info. back top AT&T. Still says 1.
Very frustrating.
I have a different problem.
Whenever I get a voicemail I cannot access it by calling my number.
Help please.
Hello
Who is you network service provider
THanks
Try this:
For the longest time my HTC Touch Pro has told me I've got a voicemail, but it's wrong. I don't. It somehow got out of sync. The phone has a way to reset the voicemail indicator, but it's buried pretty well. How to reset the voicemail indicator of your Windows Mobile 6.1 device:
1. Hit the "Phone" button like you would to place a call.
2. Instead of dialing the number, tap "Menu".
3. Tap "Options".
4. Navigate to the "Services" tab.
5. Choose "Voicemail" from the list box.
6. Click "Get Settings..."
7. Hit the "Clear" button.
8. Press "ok" to close the window.
Your main screen should reflect this action immediately, and should not indicate that you have a voicemail!

Hello,
Thank you for the instructions, however, my HTC 8925/WM6.1 does not seem to have any sort of "Clear" button, it just shows two textboxes, one with the SMSC number and the other with my VMB number.. The only options are to change/clear those text fields or click the "OK" box..
If anyone else has had the same issue, here are some workarounds:
Registry:
HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\HiddenDeleteVM = 0
(DWORD, enables the "clear" button if it's not visible)
You can also go in and manually set the count:
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line1\Unread\Count = 0
(DWORD, set it to 0 to clear the VM indicator once and for all)
Hope this helps!
^_^

doesnt work !!
I had this same problem for a long time. I solved it by taking my SIM card out of my HD2 and putting it in another TMOUS phone. I found that I evidently had stored a voicemail on my SIM card, so I erased it. I had also been getting the infamous "129" text message that popped up on an almost daily basis. So, while I had my SIM card in the non-HD2 phone, I also looked for text messages, found one, and erased it. I then called TMOUS customer service, and they took me through a procedure they have for eliminating the "phantom" new voicemail messages. After my procedure and their procedure, problem solved! I no longer get New Voicemail prompts when none in fact exist, and I no longer get the "129" text messages.

I didn't think so either, but I gave it a try. I think the problem for me MAY have originated from my initial use of Visual Voicemail. I had no problem with either the "phantom" New Voicemail alert or the 129 text message when I initially started using my HD2. These problems arose for me after activating Visual Voicemail. Maybe it's that application which initially stored the vmail on the SIM (leading to a continuing New Voicemail alert when I thought I'd erased or saved all incoming voicemails), and the text message was the (Visual Voicemail) system's way of trying to let me know that I still had a voicemail message on the SIM??? Whatever may be the case, the method that I described in my post has worked fine for me. No more new vmail alerts when none in fact exist, and no more 129 text messages

[Q] Getting rid of SIM messages in Messaging

I put Windows Phone 7 on my HD2 last week, and I swear while I was setting it all up there was an option to show or not show SIM messages when looking in Messaging.
However now I am using the phone regularly I can't find it any more! Every time I reboot the phone, the SIM messages are loaded higher up the list than my actual text messages which is really frustrating because it makes it hard to see my current conversations.
Does anyone know where the setting to stop it showing SIM messages is?
Thanks!

Try deleting one of them, and if it is not deleted from the sim, the check box might appear again on next reboot. Else delete what you don't need
Interesting that you can import messages from sim but not save to sim, how many messages are there?
i think what you've seen whilst setting up the phone was the message "import sim contacts now" and not sim sms... there's no setting about that in wp7 afaik
I think there are about 20 or so SIM messages. I deleted one and it went away, but didn't give me any more options to delete any others and the rest of the SIM messages are still there.
Obviously I could just delete them all but I find it annoying there is not the option to just hide them from the messaging view or something.

[Q] Venue Pro Won't send SMS

I have just bought a brand new (unlocked) Dell Venue Pro. It had Windows phone 7.5 pre installed and I have installed all the updates. After I finished setting up my account and settings, checked the marketplace... I tryed to send an SMS - and got a nasty suprise. The phone won't send any SMS messages to anyone. It receives them OK, it can make calls, use data connection and everything but it won't send a damn SMS. When I go to the messaging settings, the messaging center number isn't there. When I enter it and tap save, the field just goes blank again. I have tryed rebooting the phone and reseting it from the about menu but it still won't send an SMS.
So I tryed a different SIM card (the same provider) and here the message center number was entered and the SMS was sen't successfully. So why won't it work with my SIM card?
Settings - > cellular -> edit apn
Set your apn info from your provider.
Also next time search the forums first. There are already a few threads about this
I think that you need to read my question again. NOT MMS! I have trouble sending SMS messages. And those don't need the APN - which is set and the mobile internet is working.
I've seen SMS get screwed up when the MMS settings arent set. The only other possibility is that you need some AT commands sent from your phone.
I have just tried the logical step - I sen't an MMS. The MMS was sent without any problems and was delivered to the other phone. But the damn thing still won't send a bloody SMS.
Call your provider up and have them activate sms on your sim card.
I don't see any reason why they should be deactivated. If I stick my SIM card into my old Motorola Milestone I can normalny send SMS messages.
Well I fixed it. It took a little bit of magic but it is working now.
I took the SIM card out and inserted it into a cheap samsung dumbphone and changed the SMS centre number to an incorrect one (if I entered the correct number it didn't show up), then I inserted it back into the Dell and the incorrect number was shown in the settings. So I changed it into a correct one and this time it remembered the number. So everything is working now.
I have same issue
I tried the SIM trick, I did manage to change the number in a dumbphone, but I still could not read or change the message center number in the DVP. I just did the latest update through zune yesterday, but that had no positive effect.
Any other suggestions? Maybe a hard reset?
