  • N73 - Cannot send text messages/Multimedia key not...

    Sent my N73 into the shop to be fixed, and it came back with 2 problems. I cannot send text messages at all. I have heard that this can be solved with the sms accelerator, but I can find NO download link for the N73. I found another one and installed it onto my phone (version 1.0(0)) but the problem persists. ANy ideas or links to where the sms accelerator is for the N73?
    The 2nd problem is the multimedia key is no longer programmable. I press the multimedia key, then select the down arrow (configure) I scroll down to any of the options right, left, top, center, bottom. When I press the center joystick I just am taken back to the multimedia screen. I am not given any choices to reprogram the keys....any ideas there???
    Thanks for the help!

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Often it's just a case of resetting the phone after it comes back from repairs if they've upgraded or simply reflashed the firmware for you.
    Note that these operations will wipe your phone's internal memory so do a backup before proceeding.
    First option: revert to factory defaults. Dial *#7780#.
    Second option: soft reset. Dial *#7370#.
    Third option: hard reset. Switch the phone off and do the following.
    1) Press and hold the green "call", "3" and "*" buttons.
    2) With those buttons pressed down, switch the phone on.
    3) Keep pressing those 3 buttons and only release them once the phone shows signs of life such as the Nokia "hands" logo or the language selection screen.

  • Cannot send text messages

    HI
    Starting 10 days ago, I cannot send text messages. i can still receive text messages.
    I tested my phone with a colleague who has an iphone. He receives a record that I am texting him but the message is null. I also texted a family member on her Android phone and she gets nothing.
    Here's what I have done:
    1. I did a hard reset twice. I removed the battery and even the SIM card in the process.
    2. Soft reset once using the Alt, **bleep**, Del key.
    3. Checked if my BB had the latest sotfware. It did It currently has OS 6 with bundle 2647.
    4. Wind Mobile Canada has reset my PIN
    5. I re-registered my phone as guided by the Wind Mobile tech support. I got an email from BB saying "Your handheld has been registered with the wireless network".
    What else could I try?
    Thanks

    Click on TEXT MESSAGES icon.
    Go to BB Menu and Click OPTIONS
    Sroll down to "Data Coding"
    Choose "7 bit"

  • I just purchased a note 3.  Everything works well except I cannot send text messages.  I can receive them, but I get an error message when I try to send them

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot send text messages on my note 3?   I can receive them, but when I attempt to send them I get an error message unable to send . . .  It's a brand new phone.

        Congratulations on your new phone, Nonaleigh.
    We would love to get to the bottom of your message mystery.
    I'm guessing you are getting the error for all messages you attempt to send, is that correct?
    What type of phone did you upgrade from? We ask because if you have switched from an Apple device (e.g., iPhone) to a non-Apple device (e.g., Android, Blackberry, etc.) and previously used the iMessage service, you may experience issues sending/receiving SMS/MMS messages with Apple device users. You need to deactivate the iMessage service within your Apple account to restore normal SMS/MMS functionality.

  • TS2755 I cannot send text messages form my 4S iphone to other cell phones.

    I cannot send text messages to other cell phones.  Only iPhones accept the messages.

    check to see if you have SMS turned on in the message settings.
    IF that doesn't help contact your phone carrier as they handle messaging and see if they can help resolve the issue.

  • Cannot send text messages to Verizon customers

    Hi
    I cannot send text messages to other verizon customers but can send to non vz. This has been happening since last night. Is there an update I need to perform? I have an iPhone 6 plus. Thanks

    Hi
    Thank you for your message. It seems like it is certain Verizon iPhone users. I did not download any new apps or perform any software updates on my iPhone. The ppl I could send text messages to were non VZ non iPhone users. Today I can only send to some iPhone users. They also had error messages sending text messages to me but not to my daughters iPhone (we r on a VZ family plan). Do I need to perform an update like *228 or something like that? Thank you!

  • Cannot send text message or iMessage?

    I recently upgraded to iOS7 (like everyone else) and today cannot send text messages or iMessage. I can make phone calls and use other internet services. Any ideas?

        Hi shelmig1!
    Sorry to learn of any issues since upgrading to iOS7. Let's try some troubleshooting! Do you find that this issue is only for other iPhone users, or does it happen with all messages? Are you able to receive messages? Please reset your network settings: Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings. Keep us posted on the results, thanks!

  • Just upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2 on my iMac 24 inch and now my Suddenlink POP email account won't accept messages. The message says unable to receive Mail and the warning says: Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove th

    Yesterday I uploaded Yosemite 10.10.2 thinking it was fixed by now. In Mail, my POP account gets this error message: Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove this restriction in the Accounts preferences by setting “Allow insecure authentication”, which could put your password at risk.
    My provider says it's an Apple issue. The gmail accounts are logging in fine. Any help? Something simple?
    Thanks anyone.

    Thanks Csound1. That did work and Mail was able to connect to the internet. Green light status. Is it because of my provider that I may never have had secure connections? Is that an Apple thing or do PCs have the same issues? Appreciate your help. I'll research insecure connections as I am ignorant of the consequences.

  • I saved images from an imessage.  now when I open Imessage, the pictures will not go away. When I press "done" the pictures remain. Cannot send a message

    I saved images from an imessage.  Now when I open Imessage, the pictures are displayed on the screen.  When I click on "done" the images do not go away.
    Therefore, I cannot send a message.

    Quit the app completely and try again. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Or try this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
