Problems sending long SMS on N8

I am having problems sending long SMS texts. Whenever I try to write out a text that is longer than a few sentences, the screen just goes off and the message disappears. The screen just goes back to the inbox and the half written text is nowhere to be seen. It is driving me up the wall! I have updated to the latest software in the last couple of weeks so I don't think it is that. If anyone has any ideas please help!
Thanks

Hi,
I don't know... but could you try this:
Create a very long sms (more than 160 char) via phone UI and save it to phone's drafts folder -> does PC Suite shows that in one message?

Problem sending/ receiveing SMS on a particular port in an intercarrier n/w

I am using JSR 120 to send & receive SMS on a particular port. This works perfectly between 2 devices using the same carrier.
if I try sending & receive inter-carrier SMS, like from T-Mobile device to Cingular device (or vice-versa), my j2me app does not receive any SMS on the port it is listening to.
When the SMS with a port is sent from my app, I get the prompt for permission to send. On pressing OK, the SMS is sent. On the receiving side, the device on the another carrier network receives the SMS in the default inbox, & not by my app.
I am not sure if this is a inter-carrier SMSC issue or something to do with my app.
Pl help.

Has anyone come across the above mentioned problem? Pl let me know if there is any solution.
Question simply put : When a j2me sms midlet sends an sms on a unique port to another j2me sms midlet listening on the same port, but served by a different carrier (cellular operator), why does the sms go to device inbox & not to my midlet?
Thank you

I'm writing one j2me midlet application using WMA library to send and Receive SMS.. Application behavior is : For receiving sms i implemented MessageListner so whenever sms comes, it notify the midlet and in that function i'm creating one thread and receiving sms and doing some parsing.

If i comment out send code then my application is able to receive any number of sms. I have used different connector.open objects like SMSREAD and SMSSEND to store message connection.
Please help me in this. My send and receive part works perfectly if i do send and receive in two different midlets....................
Any hint.....................
Thanks in advance for your kind support...................

Problem sending a SMS message from mobile phone t809

Hello!
I am trying to send a SMS message from my cell phone. This is Samsung t809 phone with CLDC 1.1 and MIDP 2.0
The code that I am using is next:
MessageConnection smsconn = null;
try
smsconn = ( MessageConnection )Connector.open( "sms://:50000" );
TextMessage txtMsg = ( TextMessage )smsconn.newMessage( MessageConnection.TEXT_MESSAGE );
txtMsg.setAddress( "sms://18885552233" );
txtMsg.setPayloadText( "Hello SMS!" );
smsconn.send( txtMsg );
catch( Exception e )
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println( e.getMessage() );
form_main.append( "\nError occured!" );
if( smsconn != null )
try
smsconn.close();
catch( IOException e )
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println( e.getMessage() );
Seems like on cell phone I have an exception because I can see the line "Error occured!"
I have no idea why... :(
Will appreciate any help and comments.
Thank you!
P.S. Oh yes... the phone 18885552233 is not real, I just used my friend cell phone to test. Does not work... :(

hello,
when you use smsconn = ( MessageConnection )Connector.open( "sms://:50000" ); it means that you are trying to connect to a sms server. So if you don't have a sms server on your computer, an exception is thrown !
if you just wanna test sms sending, put the phone number in the string like this
smsconn = ( MessageConnection )Connector.open( "sms://123456789" );<b>reference</b>:

Factory unlocked iPhone 5 having problems sending/receiving sms

Hello,
I recently bought a factory unlocked iPhone 5 from the apple store in the US and I am unable to send/receive any sms/texts using my mobile provider B&YOU located in France.
Can anyone help with ways to solve this issue?
Thanks,
Suligadal

Hello Sk8Dreams,
Thanks for your questions and quick feedback. Yes I turned on SMS & MMS in my settings and yes my plan includes SMS & MMS. I tried something I saw in the forum concerning enabling the "show subject field" and for some strange reason, I am able to send messages after trying this. Seems strange, I am going to disable this "show subject field" and see if it will work or not. SMS should work regardless of if this option is active shouldn't it?
Thanks

I cant send long text messages

I have noticed that everytime I try to send a long text message (over 160 texts) the person never recieves it. In combination with no notificatin of going over 160 characters, not being able to resend or cut and paste this is becoming a big and annoying problem for me. Is there something Im missing or is this just another major inconvience of the iphone? I love some things about the phone but there sure do seem to be some major flaws. Any help/advice?

thank you for such a quick response. Yes the recipient is another at&t customer using a blackberry. I never had a problem sending long text messages before getting my iphone (think the record with my old phone, a sony ecrisson w580i was 10 text messages long). I tried testing it today sending one that was 159 characters and one that was 161 characters, the 159 was recieved while the 161 was not. I tried contacting at&t and recieved a very shady answer (they suggested maybe the signal in the area which I reluctantly accepted at the time, however as time has gone on it has become obivious this is not the problem). I figured it must be another iphone characteristic however the lack of other owners mentioning this problems led me to seek help.

When I send a SMS to a friend's BLACKBERRY, no problem, but when i answer tu him by sms, the message can not go out of my iphone 4s

It seems that i have no problem with other contacts, but with 1 of my best friend, i only can send a SMS by creating a new message. When i try to answer to one of his SMS (like a discussion), my message can not be send. My friend use a Blackberry on SFR Network in France. I m connected to Orange Network in France

Check your phone to make sure MMS is turned on. If it is, check with your cell provider and make sure your phone is provisioned correctly.

How to find out skype user sending me sms?profile....

Hi All.
Its of high importance for me to find out the user id of an unknown person sending my wife SMS's through SKYPE. The number showing up from the sender is +442032892491. Upon googling, i found that this number is linked to Skype so if any user sends a sms without setting a number in profile, the default number shows up as above. Its very important for me to know who has been sending messages to my wife mobile. Can any one please suggest. I also tried sending a message back from my wife mobile to the same number +442032892491 but not sure if its actually reaching there.
Pls help.
Regards
Vishal

I am definetly starting to think I don't actually have a skype name. Now I tried again since the 24 hour restriction went off. First from Skype webpage ->sign in -> forgotten your skype name? ->there I enter my hotmail address ->send mail ->
then it moves off from Skype and into account.live.com, where it's no longer asking anything Skype related:
Why are you having trouble signing in?
I forgot my password
I know my password, but can't sign in
I think someone else is using my Microsoft account
So I obviously choose the second option last time since it's the closest available option for my problem, but then it gives me options:
Get back into your accountWe can help you reset your password and security info. First, enter your Microsoft account and the characters shown.
So again it asked for my address and captcha, and after that I could choose to "verify my identity" by choosing the alt email, but since that is slight garbled and cannot be differented from the primary address, and I was already so pissed off from typing the same address over and over, so at that point I mistakenly wrote the main address again where it wanted to verify it by asking the whole alternative address and thus it never sent the account reset email for the Microsoft/Live account.
But since I originally had no problems with that Microsoft account, all I wanted was the "Skype Name", and since the only way to try to find it jumps into the restore Microsoft account thing, I'm assuming I don't have one which I could use to login to Skype, so all I can use is the Microsoft/Live account.

Issue with recieving long SMS and Caller Name display

Hi,
Im new to the blackberry and have looked around other forums & technical centre and havn't found any way to solve my issues although i did find something about caller id problems.
1) When people send me long SMS i.e over 160 characters long i keep recieving them in separate SMS and it becomes very confusing... i have owned over 7 different phones in the past and this has never been a problem. Is there any way to solve this?
2) Quite often when someone calls me, i only seem to be able to see the callers number and not the Name, this is frustating as i have no idea who is ringing.
Hope you can assist me.
Thanks.

It helps to give ALL the details of yoru device, such as your OS release on the device and your carrier as well.
1. Verizon blocks combined SMS over 160 characters on their BlackBerrys. You should fuss at them. Other carriers don't do this. An alternative for you is the application called "Beyond160", find it in AppWorld.
2. There could be any one of three solutions... Try these:
a. Make sure you set your own country code at Phone Dialer Screen > Options > Smart dialing.
Set your country code in this format: "+xx" where xx = your country code. Some countries have two or three digit Country Codes. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
* In the US, set this Country Code as "+1", and place your loca area code in the proper box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).
b. At the same location, change the National Number Length to the number of digits for your country (since some countries will have less than 10 as set as the default in the BB). Find out the total digits, minus the country code. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
* For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (plus 3 for country code). You would enter "8".
c. You may have "Content Protection" set on your Address Book.
Look at Options > Security > General Settings. Scroll down to Content Protection > Include Address Book = NO.

IMessages being sent as SMS with Send as SMS turned off

I had an unhappy experience with iMessage. I had about a 1 1/2 hour period on 4/9 where my iMessages were being sent as SMS texts. I have Send as SMS set to Off and I have never had this happen before. I don't remember the iMessages screen changing to indicate it was sending as SMS.
Overall very strange since there should be no way that the messages were sent as SMS with Send as SMS turned off. This is a problem because I do not have a messaging plan since I don't use SMS so if it switches to SMS and I don't know it the charges could rack up. The hour and a half cost me $8 in SMS charges as it is.
If having Send as SMS set to off does not insure that messages are not sent as SMS texts then what will?

Yes, they were listed as SMS messages on my bill. I was texting all day with one person but it was only this 1 1/2 hour period that was changed to SMS. Nothing before or after that and it's never happened before to me. All very strange. The problem is that if this happened for a longer period it would get very costly and I would not notice it untill I got the bill.
I'm getting my gf to add her email address to her messages account and I will be messaging that from now on. Hopefully iMessage can't turn that into an SMS.
It would be great if there were some way to actually prevent iMessage from sending SMS, but the Send as SMS setting obviously does not work. The only other thing I can think is that it was sending the texts as MMS messages. There is not much if any documentation on the relationship between MMS, SMS, and iMesssage.

Another problem is that in Bridge (version 2.0.0.975) I can no longer see thumbnails of RAW files from my Canon 40D that I saw before.
Should I upgrade ACR? which is the latest version supported on my Mac?

Problem sending pop email

I have a problem sending (not receiving) pop email.
I am connected directly to my ISP (virgin.net, part of virginmedia.com) on adsl – (ie not trying to connect via another isp) - sharing the internet connection wirelessly via a modem/router to 2 Macs (macbooks), a Vista laptop and wiredly to an XP desktop.
The problem only happens with the Macs, not the Windows machines. One of the Macs is running Tiger with mail 2.1.3, the other Leopard with mail 3.2. Both are affected.
The problem only arises when trying to send longer messages (a few paragraphs - not MB). There is no problem sending short (one or two word) messages. I'm not sure where the cutoff comes.
What happens is that the messages are simply timed out, after a lengthy attempt to send. The error message is generally
‘The server response was: 4.4.2 omf09.hostedemail.com Error: timeout exceeded ‘
but sometimes (more recently, perhaps as a result of all the fiddling I describe below)
‘An error occurred while delivering this message via the SMTP server "(null)" ‘
This started on Friday 30th May. That day we woke up to find we were unable to receive email either. Looking at the mail accounts, I saw that the (incoming) authentication had spontaneously(?) changed from "password" to MD5 challenge response. Since returning it to password, we've been able to receive mail on both machines.
We only noticed the problem with sending a few days later as we hadn’t tried to send any longer messages; so it’s not absolutely certain that it’s related – but it seems likely.
We can send pop email from our googlemail accounts. We can also use virgin’s webmail with no problems.
This is what I’ve tried to resolve the problem:
checked that the server etc settings are configured according to Virgin’s instructions at
http://www.virginmedia.com/help/email/set-up-pop-email.php#OS_X103
(on the advice of support there) deleted one of the affected accounts (and also removed the smtp server from the server list) and recreated it. No effect.
Installed Thunderbird and set up the same account. Same problem there.
Used Connection Doctor – shows connections to all servers as green
Rebooted the modem/ router, and both machines
Repaired permissions
Nothing seems to help.
I’ve done all this on the Tiger mac, on the theory that once I find the solution there is will also apply to the Leopard one ie that it’s not a glitch of some recent Leopard update.
Because the Windows machines (and webmail) work fine, Virgin clearly think that this is simply a Mac problem. I suspect that they have changed something in their setup, as it seems unlikely that it would otherwise affect two Macs running different versions of OSX in the same way.
I’ve only recently persuaded my wife to switch to a Macbook after her experience of Vista so this is not only annoying but embarrassing!

I have a Mac and have had the same problem with Virgin – I have been unable to send emails of more than about 300 words, or any replies or attachments, since May 30, the day Virgin “improved” their email services. Receiving emails and using webmail are not affected. Virgin’s helpline has been totally unhelpful, refusing to accept that it has anything to do with them or that some other Mac users are affected in the same way. Their fault team insists it’s a problem with my computer. I have O.S. 10.5.3 Leopard, having just upgraded, but the problem occurred when I was still on O.S. 10.4. Tiger. My email program is Entourage (which Virgin’s helpline hasn’t even heard of!). When the problem first occurred, I wasn’t able to send any emails, but by changing the Accounts advanced settings to what Virgin recommended when I phoned them, I could at least send short emails. (Their announcement of the email changes said, “Don’t worry, you don’t have to do anything.”) Virgin are trying to put a huge spin on this shabby treatment of Mac customers by saying, “We’re doing lots of things to make your experience with us even better” – but with friends like this, who needs enemies?
