Message Centre Number on N96.....

I have recently bought a new N96 on a vodafone contract, and as i was previously on 02 i had to wait a few days for them to transfer my number over.... My number then got transfered over yesterday and i then went to send a text message and it asked for my message centre number which i didnt know at the time so i just put in my mobile number as i didnt have a clue what the message centre number was... I have just got my message centre number from someone over the phone but i keep trying to change it and it just comes up with the message "unable to change settings. Value read from SIM card" can anyone give me any assistance on how to get this properly working...
Cus i've now got a new phone and cant send any texts on it.
Cheers

Vodafone UK : SMS Service Centre number: +447785016005.
This number is used to configure your phone for sending text messages.
For other countries:
http://www.smsfre.com/SMS-Mesaging-Centers.htm
Before that reset ur phone to default factory settings........
*#7780# with default code 12345 but do make a back up
second option: try to create a new message centre number.
messaging->options->text message->message centres->options->new message centre
enter the correct information, then go back to textmessage->message centre in use. and choose the new message centre.
last option left which is to head to the vodafone shop, they will help you configure the phone or change the sim card for you.

  • N96 message centre number

    I have a N96 and it has an incorrect message centre number in. I have requested the settings from O2 but this does not cahnge it. When I try and change it myself it says unable to change settings. value read from sim card. I have only had the phone fot 2 weeks and it has not sent a text yet.

    Call O2 support again, ask them to send your message settings via text to your phone.
    Sounds like the text message settings (how they are sent) is wrong on your phone.

  • Can't change the Message Centre Number in my Nokia...

    I have a 3 day old Nokia X. I can't send text messages due to wrong the message centre number set in my Nokia X device. When I try to change it in settings, a pop-up appears which say "It is bad to change SMSC Number. Do you want to change ?". I choose "Ok". Then nothing changes Message Centre Number is set on "+7" and does not changes. I have tried many things including removing battery and SIM Card without switching off the device and reseting the device to Factory Defaults. But the problem persists. It doesn't changes. I live in New Delhi, India.
    Any help will be appriciated.

    No I am not able to resolve the issue.
    I reset my phone without the SIM Card also but same thing repeats. I can't change the Message Centre Number. It reverts to +7 when I try and change it in settings with the pop up "Changing the SMSC may cause problems sending messages, to confirm the change ?". Then I tap "OK" and nothing changes the Message Centre Number is still +7.

  • Nokia 1661 Message Centre Number

    This morning I was playing around with my Nokia 1661 phone and I accidentally changed the Message Centre Number, which I now know was a stupid thing to do. So I'm asking if anyone knows the Fraser Valley BC number or how I can get the number back? All answers are appreciated.

    You need to contact your network provider.

  • What is my message centre number!!!????!!!

    Nowhere does it mention what my message centre number is. Is it my own phone number or something else? I just want to send simple sms text messages and it seems impossible with this e70.

    Call your network provider customer services and they should be able to tell you the service centre number
    You can also have a look on your providers website. I'm on O2 and I know they have a sevice where they will send your the settings over the air from the website
    Also, if you have a settings wizard in your phone and you work through that (about 1 min), that will set up your sms, mms settings.
    I have an N80, so I am not familliar with E70 but it should similar...

  • Message Centre Number? (6280, o2)

    Turned on my phone, the 6280, this morning to find that the message centre number has been forgotten / deleted so it won't let me send any messages.
    Does anyone have this number?
    Do I have to ring Nokia? Ugh...
    All help greatly appreciated!

    Easiest way to solve this is to ring o2 - if they are anything like Orange they will then send you a SIM update which will then put the SMS/MMS settings back for you as they should of been set up as default.
    Alternatively they may just give you the number to put in, but either way I would suggest for you to contact o2, as Nokia will probably not have that information (although another Nokia 6280 user on o2 in the UK may have this number on here to give to you).

  • 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.

  • 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?

    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.

  • IPhone 5 message centre

    Hello,
    My Iphone wasn't sending txt messages so I called o2 and they helped me changes the message centre number, which works until I turn the phone off and they it goes back to another message centre number, can anyone help me? Thanks!

    An iPhone will not pair via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7722
    If you are attempting to use Handoff/Continuity, that does involve Bluetooth but the devices are NOT paired; Bluetooth just needs to be on and the devices in range of each other. The following may help with Handoff/Continuity issues: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5458

    How can I use my iPhone telephone number with iMessage on my iPad, iPod touch, or Messages for Mac?
    You can link your iPhone telephone number to your Apple ID for use on your iPad, iPod touch, or Messages for Mac by signing into iMessage with your Apple ID in Settings > Messages. Then sign in to the other device with the same Apple ID in these locations:
    iPad and iPod touch: sign in to iMessage in Settings > Messages.
    Messages for Mac: sign in to iMessage in Messages > Preferences > Accounts.
    Linking your iPhone telephone number with iMessage is not available for the iPad (1st generation) and iPod touch (3rd generation).
    Follow these steps for more information or if you are experiencing difficulties linking your iPhone telephone number to your Apple ID.
    If an unknown device registers with your Apple ID and you did not initiate that registration, you can reset your Apple ID password to remove it. You will then need to enter this new password on all devices using iMessage or FaceTime.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Message center number

    hi people ive got the nokia n95 mobile and when i go to send a text message for some reason it keeps asking me for the message center number ive ranged my mobile network and they gave me the number to put it but every time i got to send a text it keeps asking me for the number this has never happened befor does anyone know what to do to stop this from happening

    Usually the number is picked up from the SIM card automatically.
    Otherwise, in the "Messaging" app, you can hit "Options", choose "Settings", then "Text message", then "Message centres" and there hit "Options" again, then "New message centre".
    Then go back to the text message settings and select it for "Message centre in use".

    On your BlackBerry, pres the gree dial key and them enter ##000000 and press the green dial key again. You should get the CDMA Service Edit screen.
    The first line will be your phone number.
    The second line (IMSI_S) should be your service center, and if not, enter the number there and save.
