[Q] Unable reply to SMS - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI,
I bought my S4 earlier this week and found that I had been sent a US Verizon model SCH-I545 - I live in the UK.
It is entirely my fault, I bought the phone from a very reputable seller on Ebay for an excellent price, but failed to see the small print to state what model would be sent (on googling found these all to be US network models).
I have had no issues with the phone - once I managed to change all the settings over - I can access data and send and receive calls, however the only issue remaining is the most annoying!
I can send a text message, I can receive a text message, but I can't reply to one! I assume it is to do with the SMS settings and the fact that a +44 is added to the number I reply to, but I can't figure out if I can change it and how to change it.
Any help or suggestions will be gratefully received - thanks in advance.

Can anyone help ??
Same issue with my Legend from Virgin Mobile in Canada.
Haven't noticed it since I switched to ShoutOut and turned off notifications from the stock app.
same problem with vf uk --

seems to be a signal problem for quite a few of us
I've had the same with using my o2 sim - so I don't think its network dependant.
That new OTA fix contains some 'network reliability fixes' - not sure if that will help us.
I get intermittants bouts of it. Not had it in a while now though....hmmm

Cant send MMS's or send anything Via Bluetooth?

Hello, as the title explains I cannot send MMs's even though I have already contacted O2 to send the settings to my phone, I have sent ACTIVE to 2020 as well & nothing comes back?
My phone is a HD2 which was unlocked from T-mobile to O2, it was 'sim locked' to T-mobile but now i can send messages & receive them without any problems also make & send calls as well as access the internet.
But for some reason I cant send MMS's
Another problem is the Bluetooth feature?, I can find other devices no problem but am unable to send anything at all to these found devices? I can send things to my HD2 phone without any trouble?
Any help would be appreciated

[Q] text messaging is not working for me, anyone else having this problem?

I have an Xperia X2, and thanks to this forum have gotten it working pretty well. I really enjoy the phone most of the time, however I have never been able to get the sms or text messaging working. The phone does not say there is any problem, just no texts sent or received.
I purchased the phone used on Ebay, and it is an imported phone from Europe. I live in the US and am using the phone with At&T.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks!
put at&t configuration in (register messages to at&t)
Thanks for your reply. I did load the att configuration, but that does not seem to have helped. The phone acts and seems like it sent the message, but no one ever gets the messages, nor can i receive any messages. It is strange.
Ok, It is working now! Thank you!

[Q] help me!!! Verizon s5 in UK!

Hello, I currently have a Verizon galaxy s5 with a Three UK SIM, I can access 3g and make calls without a problem BUT my problem is I cannot access 4g data or even send any text messages! I've searched high and low for solutions but have not found anything.
I have managed to troubleshoot the text messaging problem and have discovered that I cannot send anybody a text message when there is a 44 (UK) in front of their number. Which is very annoying as I would have to change people's numbers all the time.
I also have another question that I cannot find an answer for; would it be at all possible to install another firmware (different model number) so that it basically turns my phone into a English handset instead of an American one? or maybe install a custom firmware to remove the original origin of the phone?
I hope this makes sense to you guys as I must have read a zillion websites today, I think my head is about to explode!
You already made a thread about this exact issue

Messages not being sent

Hi guys,
What is wrong with my phone ?
I cannot send TEXT messages, I mean it says they are sent, but the reciever don't get them.
I can normally recieve text messages from anyone. Tested it on 3 different numbers, none got my SMS, I got from all.
Is this my Network Supplier issue, or phone issue?
Best,
Dpool
