N95 8GB Newbie question re Text Messaging

Hello Folks,
I live in the USA an have AT&T as a provider. I am just learning my around the N95 8GB. When I try to send a text message I get a screen with two window. One is label "Text message Center" and the other has "message center number" in it. Does anyone have any idea what to put in these windows? I tied calling the local AT&T store and they had no idea.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
John

Thanks for your first reply Sage.
I tried the remove the battery and SIM card suggestion but to no avail.
As mentioned in my first message, the guy at my local AT&T store seemed to have no idea what I was asking for. He said that all text messaging was "mobile to mobile."
Perhaps I need another source at AT&T or perhaps I am going down the wrong track.
If anyone else has a suggestion, please let me know. I am sure I am not the only one in the USA with AT&T who has faced this questions.
Thanks again folks.
John

N95 8gb Newbie question about settings

Hey gang, When I put the phone into my case, it sometimes calls previous contact by inadvertently pushing the green button. What setting do I use to lock the keys when slider is shut? Thanks,

If you goto Security Settings, scroll down to Phone and Sim, then scroll down to Autolock Period and enter the time you want.

N95 8GB SMS question

When I receive a new SMS all I get is "one new message received". I'm sure that with other Nokia's that I've had it tells you who the SMS is from, but not with my N95. I'm on the Three network, is this something to do with the network or settings? Please advise.

That is perfectly normal for an N95 8GB.
Some other nokia models do tell you who the message is from on the main screen but not the N95.
You can add that feature by using one of the programs below. Try the demos and see which you prefer.

Question About Text Message With LG Env3 phone

I'm getting an arrow and it's sending a text from one Verizon phone to another. What does this mean?
<Branched to a new discussion for more exposure.>
Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

Here's my understanding and experience with two Verizon Env3's and other LG phones - the green check means the message was successfully sent to another Verizon (mobile) phone number. The green arrow means the message was successfully sent, but the number is outside the Verizon network. If sending to an iPhone or Android, even if the phone is Verizon, the recipient may be using a texting app rather than regular text messaging. In that case you'd get the green arrow instead of the green check mark.

Question on text message notifications with imessage open vs closed with iOS7

Before the upgrade to iOS7.1 when I received a text message my phone would vibrate both when the application was closed to nofify me of the message and when the application is open (I am looking at the text message) and then when another text would come through with the application still open the phone would vibrate again. Now that I have upgraded to iOS7.1 when the application for text messages is open and someone continues to text me while I am reading the other texts the phone barely (hardly able to feel it at all) vibrates. The problem is that if I leave the application open and am not looking at the phone then I don't realize texts are coming through. Anyway to fix this? I have power cycled the phone, checked all settings (that I can find) and turned off notifications and then back on again and still nothing.
Ideas?
Didn't have this issue before the upgrade.. Phone would vibrate the same with application open or closed. Would like that again.

I have the same thing happening. Any help would be appreciated!

Questions about TEXT MESSAGES on Pearl

I really appreciate any advice, thak you!!!
Ive noticed that my inbox does not save all my text messages (have had the phone for less than a week, I don't think my inbox is full. Does the phone let you know when it is?). For ex, today the 25th, it shows only some of my received txts. Yesterday I only received a few and it shows all of them. How do I automatically hav ALL txts (RECEIVED AND SENT) saved to the phone AND my SIM card? Do I just have to go individually and save the ones I want saved to my phone?
Also, how do I keep new email messages from showing up uder text messages? If I get a new txt, I want it to show up under my txts. If I get a new email, I want it to show up under that folder...right now when i get a new email my txt message icon will pop up
and one more ?. How do I save all my phone numbers to my SIM?
thanks again!!!

Try clearing the device SMS database. To clear the SMS completely check following steps:
Connect the BlackBerry smartphone to the computer.
Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
Double-click Backup and Restore, then click Advanced.
From the list of Device Databases, select the appropriate database. For your problem, select SMS.
Click Clear.
In the Warning window, click OK.
If it fails then you might to consider reinstalling device OS.

Newbie question on text label change according to program

I managed to get the property of the gauge scale (range) changes according to the different measurements selected.BUT the thing is I could not get the text label change and display as differrent measurements is selected. Pls advise

Thanks Kim"
I managed to do it. Yes,the name label cannot be changed but the caption text is possible when selected.
I did it by right-clicking the property node in the REAR(block) diagram. I click on the property and set the caption text. It works now.

N95 8GB Camera question

Hi,
I just got my phone and I love it so far! but I'm puzzled as to why the camera is unprotected? Didn't the earlier version have a shutter?
I'm very careful with it, and really don't want to hide it in a custom "sock" :-) ... I'm just surprised. Why offer 5mp and a Carl Zeiss lens and leave it unprotected?

Incidentally, according to my local nokia shop, they decided not to include the shutter on the N958GB because people complained about the shutter catching on their clothes and opening in their pockets.
Sound like nonsense to you?
To be honest, yes. I've never had my N95's shutter open on its own in my pocket and it sounds more like the bloke was searching for a plausible answer to the question why the shutter was removed.
I think it was simply a way to reduce the production cost of the handset.
Maybe Nokia will consider putting it back on future models if enough people raise the concern.

N95 8GB compatibility question

how comes that almost every application I come accross which is for Symbian system is not compatible with this phone, even if it is compatible with N96 for example (here is an example - the Text-to-speech http://europe.nokia.com/A4286225 and themobile dictionary.
what the *&#$??? it is a real bummer

S60 is the Nokia addition over the Symbian underlying operation system. S60 is the smartphones platform (N and E series, as well as some other series). 3, 3.1, 3.2 means 3rd edition and the .1/.2 means Feature pack (FP). The edition should be though as the version of Windows (XP, for example), while the Feature pack shall be treated as Service pack. While the edition implies major system changes, the feature pack adds some not so dramatic system changes. For example, the 3rd edition of S60 was shipped with changed security, caching, kernel modifications and graphics; S60 5th edition is available for the newer touch devices (5800 and N97). When choosing application, you need to look for those stated as compatible with S60 3rd editions (also written as S60.3 or S60 3). Feature packs built upon the existing edition mostly in terms of applications. Feature pack 1, for example, brought alarm clock with multiple alarms, as well as alarm sounding when the phone is off. In general, simple applications written for given edition will be compatible across the feature packs, but will fail on another edition. So, S60 3.1 applications will probably work on S60 3.2, but not on S60 2 or S60 5. This does not apply for all applications, though. You can read more about S60 here:

N95 8gb notes question

I have a lot of notes on my n95 and was just wondering if I can save them to my laptop somehow then delete them off my phone? Was thinking maybe synch with PC suite or back-up?

Hi, if you have an Ovi Account you can use it to sync your phone , just set phone details, they'll txt the settings to your phone and you can then sync contacts, calendar and notes OTA and save them in your Ovi Account, I use it regularly (plus if you;d deleted them and needed them you can get them back by syncing away from a computer !)
Good Luck

7925 Text messages

Hello. This is a quick question about text messages to 7925.
In my case is working just fine, we receive the text messages and we can read them, but is there a way to save them and read them again later.
Once we read it seems to be deleted, because we are not able to find the message again.
Is this working as design?
Regards

The phone is new and it never displayed text messages in the text app/view. They only displayed in the main hub. And the notifications for texts never worked. It's apparently some issue with the software not recognizing texts correctly.
I called Verizon customer service and they transferred me to Blackberry support. The solution was to reload the operating system. I used Blackberry Link to do a full backup of my phone, reload the OS, then restore my settings (it took about 40 min total). Texts now display correctly and the notifications are working properly.
For anyone who has this problem, connect your phone to your computer and install/open Blackberry Link. Select "Backup and Restore" from the menu on the left under your Blackberry device and do a full backup of your phone. To reload the OS, click on "Preferences" in the upper right corner of BB Link. The Preferences window will open and you can select "Reload the Device Software" from the menu on the left. Then just follow the instructions.

Can't send text message from N95 8GB

I suddenly cannot send anymore text message from my N95 8GB.
"Message cannot be sent" - "Verify network settings" - that's what I get.
Can anyone help? thx.

Hi sonia78,
Do you have enough credit/balance to send texts?
Have you checked the Message Centre number? Contact your service provider to obtain the number, and then update it in Messaging -> Options -> Settings -> Text message -> Message Centres.
Did you try a SIM from another Service provider? If the new one works, contact your service provider for help.
You can try these steps one by one, if the steps above do not help:
1. Turn off your phone, leave your battery and SIM out for 5-10minutes and put everything back in and turn it on .
2. Restore factory settings: type *#7780# at the standby screen. Enter 12345 for the security code or the one you've changed it to.
Before you try the next two steps, backup your phone memory using PC Suite.
3. Soft reset: This will clean up your phone memory. All user data, applications etc stored in the phone memory will be destroyed. Type *#7370#. Enter the security code when prompted
4. Hard reset: This is the last resort. Turn off your phone, press and hold down these keys: 3, * and the call (Green) button. Turn on your phone without releasing them. Leave the keys only after you see the region selection screen.
5. Reinstall the firmware: Download and install the latest Nokia Software Updater from the Nokia website. Connect to the internet, connect your phone to the PC and run NSU. Follow on-screen instructions carefully. Make sure you have a full battery and a stable PC before you proceed.

N95 8GB - incoming message tone

A big frstration with my N95 8GB is that when you receive a text or MMS you get one notifying tone, then nothing. Does anyone know if the N95 has the facility to repeat tones to remind you that there's a message waiting. If so, how do you switch it on?
Thanks

by default incomming messeges has the tones which rings only one time as per messeges tones are created for short warn.. if u want to ring it long then only change the messege tone with a long one. and by default it can´t b repeat.. or only if u have light sensor on ur mobile which can remind u for unlimited time of period of a recieved msgs.

HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. MY question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this aren't working

HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. My question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this, such as using turning off the SMS preview under the "passcode lock", well that option no longer exists, or if it does, I'm somehow missing it.
When I go to the "messages" setting under settings on my phone, I still don't see an option of turning it off.
If I can just get the name of the person sending the message, as I had it before, I'd be happy.
Help!

That option still exists in Settings > Notifications > Messages > Show Prview (OFF) and View in Lock Screen (ON). Here's how to configure your Notifications and Notification Center for iOS 5: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html
