MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

I have done the following...

1. Called T-Mobile Technical support...they had me shut off the N900, take out the battery, and the SIM Card; they sent me some "updates" = Unsuccessful.

2. Called Nokia...told me to try resetting the device to original factory settings = Unsuccessful.

So...

1. Is anyone else having this issue?

2. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Note...

My Data based features still work--i.e. E-mail, Instant Messaging, GPS, etc. I ALSO CAN RECEIVE SMS MESSAGES...I just canNOT Send them.

Lemme know...if YOU know.


Easy.

I had that happen once. It fixed itself after about 5 or 6 hours.

Check the SMS Center settings in Conversations App, it should be "use from SIM card"

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

try settings in conversations. does it say use from sim card?

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

I think I took my sim card out and cleaned it also.

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

I will try that. 2 shakes...

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

And if it does not say "Use from SIM Card"...what is the "other" setting it may be set to...?

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

user defined

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

it either says use from sim card or user defined.

try this in user defined +12063130004

Thanks folks...but all suggestions were = unsuccessful. Do you think Nokia would send me a new/another one...? Or do you think this is strictly a T-Mobile issue?

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

This has to be a t-mobile issue, I think.

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

It may be a t-mo issue. I've had several text messages not come in/go out this evening as well. A reboot may have fixed the problem, haven't sent myself a test text.

I got a message about the SMS center as well...

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

The problem is most likely the sim card. I thought I read people were having problems with their batteries draining faster even if their sim card was old or too dirty. Try it in another phone. That will give you the answer you seek.

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

What was the message from the SMS center about...?

Re: MAJOR PROBLEM: No Sending SMS Messages (USA T-Mobile)
 

The thing is...I went to a T-Mobile store today, the Associate put my SIM Card in another device (My Touch), and it sent the SMS Message fine...

I have noticed certain things like to not work on tmobile till I restart the phone. Sometimes I lose the connection to the tower and it never reconnects. I have the 2g/3g connection switcher app too.

When I switched my number from ATT to TMobile took about 2-3 days for SMS to work, while everything else was fine. First I could text to TMobile numbers and then the rest kicked in. TMobile had to do some kind of a network reset (with att, sprint, verizon)
