8350i: Invalid Service Center when sending SMS

Some time back I followed older posts about enabling the 8350i to copose SMS texts. Prior to that, menu options seemed to allow only MMS and not SMS. Those posts basically involved going into Options->SMS Text and changing the Data Coding to UCS2 and the Service Center to +Personal info removed (originally blank) followed by a battery pull. It all seemed to work find afterwards, that is SMS was then a menu option and sending/receiving SMS was working.
Many weeks have passed and now all of a sudden, I get an "Invalid Service Center" when I try to send an SMS. I can receive just fine but just can't send. I have attempted resetting the Data Coding and Service Center with no luck. Whenever I change the Service Center, it merely reverts back to +1personal info removed. I've tryied a Master Radio Reset with no luck as well.
Any help on what to do is appreciated.

Hey avni0302,
Sorry for the delay in response. Can you please tell me what version of device software you are running on your BlackBerry? Also are you still using the BlackBerry 9300?
Once I have this information I can do some testing.

Change sender's name when sending SMS

Dear Skype supporter,
I would like to use my name which is different from my skype name and forbid the message reply when sending SMS. Whether it works? I found I can either show my skype name or my mobile phone number when sending SMS. Look forward to your kind reply.
Thanks a lot.

We created a skype to send SMS to customers.
When receiving the SMS it currently shows an unknown phone number, is it possible to change this phone number into a company name? If so how can I do this?
Thank you.
Because SMS goes out over mobile phone networks, the messages must be sent from a number. Since Skype does not provide a way to receive SMS messages, the closest you can get to using your own number would be to set up a mobile number (except mobiles in Japan or Mexico) as Caller ID. Then your Skype SMS messages could carry your mobile number, providing a way for people to reply to your messages.

Error Invalid Number message when sending text

Ever since I upgraded to an iPhone 5s I get an Error Invalid Number message when sending a text to a phone number that used to work just fine from my 4s. In fact I can receive a text from this number but when I try to reply to that text I get the error message again.
I deleted the contact info in case there was something broken there and I'm trying it with just the raw phone number but without any luck. What can I do? It's my boss's number so it's important I fix this problem. All other contacts and texts are working just fine, it's just this one phone, a Samsung galaxy on T-mobile if that helps.

I am having the same exact issue with my Nokia Lumia 920 Windows phone. I was texting my son this morning when one text immediately returned a "+1 (112) 161-1611 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send u sing a vlid 10 digit mobile number" message. His contact info looked fine, but I edited it, re-saved it and tried texting again. Same result - except the number reported in the error message showed 2 "1s" in front of his mobile number. I was able to text my wife a couple of times to report this to her and then it happened with her number in exactly the same manner. I am still able to text people I work with - so this leads me to believe it has something to do with phone numbers that have been saved outside of my corporate contact list. I will be monitoring this posting to see if there is a fix.

Contact not selected when sending SMS

Hello,
I am using PC Suite 7.0.8.2 on WinXP Sp3 (standard user or admin: no difference); Nokia 6080; connection: USB.
Evereything seems to be ok but I have problems when composing/sending sms:
if I key in the phone number my sms is sent;
but if I choose a contact name the phone number is not displayed (I just see a semicolon and the sms is not sent (but I do not receive any error message). The same happens if I choose a contect in Contacts and then clic on "Send sms to this contact"
I have tried to uninstall and install PC Suite again, but the problem is not solved
Any idea?
Thanks

ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

Invalid address warning when send email

hi,
I get "Invalid Address" warning when I send email, I do not use Internet email address format, e.g [email protected], I use my Lotus address format, e.g. CN=abc/OU=abc/O=COM, it will have warning in iphone, may I ask how to disable this email address checking feature in iphone?
Thanks

There is no way that I know of to disable the warning. All email addresses have an "@" format equivalent; see if you can use it. (Even Lotus Notes server knows it).

"short message transfer rejected" when sending sms.

Hello
I recently moved back to Sweden from USA, while there I had a blackberry curve 8900 with Tmobile. Since I was moving and had proof, I broke from the contract and got an unlock pin for my phone so I could use it on any network. The phone was fine until I decided to plug the 8900 into the pc and upgrade the os to 5.xxxx or so. since then I've recieved that error message when trying to send sms. I would call my carrier but I'm in Sweden using pay as you go, so I'm not sure if I can do that.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Fair enough. OS 5.x isn't very reliable on the 8900 - there are a ton of known bugs with the phone. Its one of the reason RIM pushed it out only to carries demanding the software upgrade.
If needed you can obtain earlier releases of the OS and downgrade - just remember to kill the vendor file. On a flip-note, the Sweeden carrier won't know your outside Sweeden unless you tell them

N80 phone locks up when sending SMS

Hi!
When I first got the phone I had no problems, but lately my phone has started locking up when I send a SMS message. It stays "locked" (nothing works and it doesn't react to pushing any bottons) for 2-3min until it sends the SMS. Anyone has a similar problem? It is very annoying since you can't use the phone during these 2-3 minutes
I'd appreciate any help

Hi people,
This may relate to all owners of S60 phones.
If you experience slow OS responses from your phone, it may be that you have too many applications running.
1. Press and hold the menu key, which will bring up the programs list.
2. Highlight the application you want to end and press "C"
I recommend ending all applications that are not being used. Please note, DO NOT end the "Standby" application as that refers to your phone.
Hope this helps.
Also a hard reset solved the problem on mine. Just make sure you have a back up of all the contacts etc and don't rely on the backup phone memory as my N80 doesn't do it. I had to restore using PCSuite.
Oh and you can't end Standby either it doen't do anything.
Is that an N95 in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?!?
Life's too important to take seriously.

Outlook 2010 Terminal Services; Error when sending mail "Content within this application coming... "About:Internet"

Hi All,
We have Outlook 2010 running on Terminal Services for one of our clients. Frequently users experience an error when trying to send mail. A message pops up stating the follow (sorry I cannot post pictures or links yet which would make this much easier)
"Content within this application coming from the website listed below is being blocked by Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration." About:Internet
If I try to add this to the Trusted Sites zone it tells me that I have already done so. All users are experiencing this issue. Not sure what can be done from our end to alleviate this problem. Any advice?

Either remove this "About:Internet" or disable Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration on the terminal server:
To disable IE ESC for all users
Close all instances of Internet Explorer.
Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click
Server Manager.
If a User Account Control dialog box appears, click Continue.
Under Security Summary, click Configure IE ESC.
Under Administrators, click Off (Recommended).
Under Users, click Off (Recommended).
Click OK.
Worked for me. Thanks!

Time lags when sending sms

hey gang, got 3250. and since past month its been acting wierd. when i try sending a message, it freezes for a while (1 full minute) and basically i cant do anything else while sending. and sometimes i cant even access the messages until i reboot the phone.
what i did:
updated the software using the online procedure.
took of battery and sim card, cleaned. placed them back
nothing happened. problem still occurs.
trying to restore to default settings, but its asking for password. i tried 1234 and 0000, unfortunatly didnt work.
can anybody provide me with the default password and additional troubleshooting methods. cuz honestly am fed up with this phone acting like a *****

i already did download the latest firmware from http://mea.nokia.com/A4346318
i cant find the sms accelerator that you recommended, if you can provide with link, that will be great.
and now that i installed the new firmware, its even acting more wierd. i cant assign speed dial.
is there a way to get rid of the whole software and reinstal the stuff again?

"Invalid address" only when sending to multiple addresses

I can send an email to <username>@gmail.com and to <username>@mac.com, but if I try to send an email to both recipients at once, my mail server says "Invalid address" even though my colleague can send an email to those addresses without a problem.
Since my colleague can do it, it can't be the server; but I can't figure out the difference between my Mail configuration and his.
Any ideas?

I found my own answer. I didn't have password authentication on for the outgoing server. Weird. I was able to send mail to individuals without a password, but couldn't send to multiple people.
It's working now.

HT2736 Why do I get invalid gift error when sending iTunes gift

How to solve error "invalid gift" enter valid email address?

Hi,
Are you trying to send the gift to a contact on your phone? It requires a fully qualified email address to send the gift to.
E.g. - if your contact for the gift was 'Bob' - you can't send it to him like that. It would need to be his full email address
Hope this helps,
D.

Hide keypad when sending SMS

When creating a SMS is there a way to hide the keyboard when adding mutiple recipients?
When creating a message on the iPhone 4 there are three element to the screen; top field where recipients are added, centre field where text is entered, bottom field = keypad.
After creating the message and adding 6 recipients the '+' symbol to add more recipinets is no longer visible, so is there a way to hide the keypad so that the '+' symbol is accessible?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I just tried this on my phone and I noticed 2 things.
1) when you are adding more recipients and the lists gets down to the keyboard, then list of recipients moves down with the newest one so the + is always visible.
2) you can scroll up and down the list of recipients just like you would scroll up and down an internet screen.

Suit refuses to send SMS to a "invalid recipient"

Sometimes the PC Suit for my Nokia 95 *MB refuses to send text messages to some numbers, for example a number in Israel. The Eerror message says "Recipient (number" is not valid. Can not send message." Who knows what is going on??? The number IS VALID! I called it and it works.

A workaround:
You can export the contacts as a .csv file and manually copy->replace the invalid character->insert a column as the valid numbers. Then you can import the .csv file into pc suite. When sending SMS, you can choose the "valid" number.
Still quite a lot numbers, but with a decent text editor, it's much easier than editing contacts one by one.
What's the law of the jungle?
