Can't send SMS. It asks for messaging centre (Mitt...

Hi. Last week I bought a 5800 and tryed to send a SMS but I can't. I wrote a message typed in a recipient in the To field and selected Options > Send.
But instead of sending my SMS it says "Please enter messaging centre" (Hope I translated it correctly. In german it is Mitteilungszentrale). I have never heard of a "messaging centre" and don't know which numbre I have to type in. And I don't know if this is a Nokia thing or from T-Mobile.
Does anybody know what to do? 
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm glad my advice helped you Suntrop.
If you imagine a SMS like a letter you put through the post.
The letter doesn't just leave your hand and go directly to the person you want it to go to, it goes via a post office and then on to the right address.
The Message Centre Number is like the post office, it gets directed there first and then onto the person
My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.
If my posts are helpful, please give me some KUDOS using the green star on the left.

  • CANT SEND SMS ON NEW 6220 - MESSAGE CENTRE ISSUE

    Hi all
    Just got a brand new 6220 on 3 network. my problem is that i cant sent sms but can recieve. when i tried to send an sms at first it asked for a centre no i just put in 1 for some reason and as expected it didnt send.
    how do i manually input my sms centre number which i got off my old 3 phone
    i have tried messeging - settings - text message - message centre in use - message centre
    problem is i cant change centre number
    begging for help

    And, usually, the message centre number is on the SIM card, and the phone reads it automatically.
    Sometimes the SIM can go bad, or the phone has some other trouble reading the number from the SIM card.
    Then you can define/add the number manually, but you do need to ask your network operator (service provider, carrier) whose SIM card you have to give the number. It might also be posted on their web site.

  • 5800 can't send sms

    I have a 5800 XpressMusic V-21.2.025 (the last avaible in my contry)
    From few days ago i can't send sms, I checked the message centre number and it's ok, i try my sim card in another phone and i did send sms, i put in another sim card in my 5800 and i did send sms, when i put my own sim card back into the 5800 i started to send sms but few ours later i couldn't.. i made a hard reset and nothing... what can i do?

    Contact your airtime supplier and ask them to send settings to your phone and install, this normally works.
    Good Luck

  • You can't send SMS or text messages to a non-Apple phone (such as an Android, Windows, or BlackBerry phone), because the messages are sent as iMessage

    You can't send SMS or text messages to a non-Apple phone (such as an Android, Windows, or BlackBerry phone), because the messages are sent as iMessage

    Yes, you can. I do it many, many times a day. If you're trying to send a message to someone who used to have an iPhone and who didn't disable iMessage before switching phones, they will need to unregister their number with iMessage:

    You also need to have SMS enabled with your carrier to send messages to non-iPhones.

  • IPhone 5, I can't send sms to iPhones

    Hello,
    I'm on iPhone 5 IOS 8.1.
    I can't send sms to another iPhone (undistributed message). IMessage is working and I can also send sms to other phones.
    On settings/messages, sms are activated when imessage turns off.
    I need help, how can I fix it ?
    KR,
    lrllt.

    Hey there lrllt,
    Since SMS works to phones other than this one, we should be able to resolve that on the phone. First check to see that your phone number is set to start new conversations, rather than your iCloud email address. 
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
    If your iMessages didn't transmit as SMS when iMessage was unavailable for use
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send as SMS and turn on Send as SMS.
    Select your phone number when Sending iMessages in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start New Conversations From.
    Make sure that you can send SMS with Settings > iMessage turned off.
    If that is not the issue, then use these steps from the same article:
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the contact.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Can't send sms from ipad mini

    can't send sms from ipad mini

    Correct; your iPad mini is not a cellular telephone.
    You can send and receive iMessages to/from other Apple devices, but you cannot send or receive text messages.
    From the Manual:
    Using the Messages app and the built-in iMessage service, you can send unlimited text messages over Wi-Fi or cellular data connections to other iOS and OS X Mountain Lion users. Messages
    can include photos, videos, and other info. You can see when other people are typing, and notify them when you’ve read their messages. iMessages are displayed on all of your iOS devices logged in to the same account, so you can start a conversation on one of your devices, and continue it on another device. iMessages are encrypted for security.

  • I can receive SMS but I can't send SMS

    I have BB 8530 curve.
    I can receive SMS message. But I can't send SMS I have wap data plane only the BIS plane not available in yemen and BB enterprise
    And I wanna know is the mms available. In wap plan wap push and the bbm is it available. In wap plane please help me

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    From what I understand, some level of BB-proprietary plan is required in order for MMS to work, since MMS is actually enabled on the BB via Service Books, and those only arrive from actual BB data plans. But, you need to talk to the mobile service providers for specifics...but I would not, given your information, be hopeful of being able to have MMS.
    Good luck!

  • Galaxy Nexus (jellybean) can't send SMS

    This morning, out of the blue, I can't send text messages on my Nexus. I've tried using my preferred app (GOsms Pro) and the stock messaging app with same result. I've rebooted. I've pulled the battery and sim card. Still no luck. I can make phone calls no problem. Data usage for web and apps is working fine.  Even tried changing network mode from LTE/CDMA to CDMA and back and still no luck. I love this phone, but this is greatly frustrating.
    - keith

    I've been having the same exact problem. It started this morning and it's still a problem now at 1:25am. I can't send sms messages on ANY of my text apps (GO, Handcent, and the stock text app.)  I work in midtown manhattan and live in Queens.   I've rebooted, battery pull, you name it, and still no fix.   I can receive text messages, make calls, etc, but the phone simply wont send any messages. They stay showing "sending."
    This isn't the first time this happened to me with this phone. Last time it happened, I took it to a vzw store they had me do a factory reset on the phone and it still didn't work.  If this is the network, this is unacceptable.  If this is the phone, this is the second time this year this has happened to me which is also completely unacceptable. It's getting beyond the point of simply doing factory resets all the time.   Something needs to be fixed and it's either the network or my phone!!!

  • How Can I send SMS to a Mobile Phone within Oracle

    How Can I send SMS to a Mobile Phone within Oracle

    It depends on how you are planning to use this feature.
    You can set up a mobile using special software in order to interface to it programatically - you can then, via this software interface, use this mobile to send SMS's.
    Some service providers support an e-mail interface. Where you send the SMS as a the e-mail content and the mobile number as the recipient's address, or as the subject of the e-mail. However, many service providers have long since stopped providing this type of mail interface due to abuse. Remember that service providers are there to make money - not offer one a service via bulk SMS's can be send.
    Some service providers have dial-up servers that works like the old style bulletin board systems (BBS's) of the 90's. You use a telnet like interface, dial into this BBS, and is prompted for mobile number, message to deliver, and even delivery confirmation. You can expect the cost of this phone call to this system, to also cover the cost of sending the SMS.
    Some companies provide a software server to interface with one or more service providers - this allows you to fairly easily use this server gateway to send SMS's for you. Such a gateway server will typically support a telnet interface - allowing you to send SMS's via it from inside PL/SQL.
    I've used all these options, and I've found the best one to be the last option. It is the easiest to use from a programming perspective. It comes with various management and reporting tools. So you need to do the very minimal in managing this whole SMS interface.

  • SOST Repeat Send does not ask for new fax number or e-mail address.

    SOST Repeat Send does not ask for new fax number or e-mail address.  It does work for one user but not for any others.  It is supposed to ask you if you want to change the fax number or e-mail address if you were the user that sent the document.  Does anyone know if there are settings that control this somewhere?  Using SAP R/3 vers. 4.7

    Dear Friends,
    Normally, we can change the receipient address, if we send. We can not change the receipient address of another user.
    Check  Note 685164 - Resending with recipient change.
    As per this note Go to SM30 and add parameter "SOST_REC_CHANGE" value "X" in view "SXPARAMS".
    Now, if you click "repeat send" icon, it will ask below two option in dialog box:
    The message is sent again. You can change the recipient before
    sending. The sent message then appears as a
    as a new send request in the list
    Send to same recipients again
    Change recipients before sending
    It is working to me ....

  • My friend recently switched from iphone to blackberry, but my messages to her are still sent as imessage. how can i send it as a normal message? she doesn't receive any of my messages. her phone number is saved in my phone under the phone tab, not iphone.

    My friend recently switched from iphone to blackberry, but my messages to her are still sent as imessage. how can i send it as a normal message? she doesn't receive any of my messages. her phone number is saved in my phone under the phone tab, not iphone.

    Sounds like your friend didn't disable iMessage on his/her iphone before switching.  Have your friend do the following:
    Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
    Log in if not already logged in.
    Click on "edit products"
    Click on the "x" to the right of his/her old iPhone.
    Click "unregister"
    This should unregister it with the iMessage server, which will allow you to send texts as normal SMS.
    On your iPhone make sure you have Settings>Messages>Send As SMS set to ON.
