Short Message Transfer Rejected for Bold 9780

There is one person in my contacts that I cannot text. It always comes up with a red x and says "Short message transfer rejected". The person can still text me, though, and I have no trouble calling the number. It only happens with this contact.
I have tried deleting the contact and re-adding, taking out the battery and sim card, but it doesn't work.
Can anyone help?

Hi fireflyfishing
Make sure when you create the contact on your BlackBerry® smartphone, that their mobile number includes the area code.  Most providers require the area code is used when sending SMS messages.
Thanks

  • "Network out of order" and "Short message transfer rejected"

    Guys,
    I have a BB 9300 3G Curve and I have trouble sending SMS. This is a peculiar problem since I
    #1 am able to send an SMS problem free sometime
    #2 get an error message saying "Network out of order"
    #3 get an error message saying "Short message transfer rejected"
    Plus, this problem is not specific to a particular contact number. I get different messages (1,2,3 above) for the same number at different times. I have tried putting my SIM in a different handset and it works perfectly fine.
    Someone please HELP!

    Simply try pulling out the battery and leaving it out for a couple minutes. Usually, that is the fix-all to glitches. If not, you should contact your wireless mobile provider and see if they can help you. Usually, they are very easy to get along with and want to help you. But I think the battery pulling out will help you. It's happened to me before and I had to do that.

  • Exclamation point and short message transfer rejected

    I recieved a short message with an exclamation point, which I googled to be "urgent message", when I tried to reply I got "short message transfer rejected".
    I know that the person messaging me is trying to keep his number secret, which is why I was surprised that he even texted me, could it be because of any of his settings?

  • Short Message Transfer Rejected

    Why does my Blackberry not let me send messages to my dad? I can recieve , messages from him and phone him, but whenever I send a message to him, it comes up with a red 'X' and 'Short message transfer rejected'. 
    Why is this happening and how can I fix it? 

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    If, by "Short Message Transfer", you mean SMS, then please contact your mobile service provider for assistance...SMS is 100% a carrier-provided service, their is nothing in the BB-proprietary services that is involved.
    If, on the other hand, you meant some other messaging service, then please be explicit about what exactly that is.
    Thanks and let us know!

  • "short message transfer rejected" when sending sms.

    Hello
    I recently moved back to Sweden from USA, while there I had a blackberry curve 8900 with Tmobile. Since I was moving and had proof, I broke from the contract and got an unlock pin for my phone so I could use it on any network. The phone was fine until I decided to plug the 8900 into the pc and upgrade the os to 5.xxxx or so. since then I've recieved that error message when trying to send sms. I would call my carrier but I'm in Sweden using pay as you go, so I'm not sure if I can do that.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Fair enough.  OS 5.x isn't very reliable on the 8900 - there are a ton of known bugs with the phone.  Its one of the reason RIM pushed it out only to carries demanding the software upgrade.
    If needed you can obtain earlier releases of the OS and downgrade - just remember to kill the vendor file.  On a flip-note, the Sweeden carrier won't know your outside Sweeden unless you tell them

  • Enhanced Gmail for Bold 9780

    I need to sync my Google contacts with my BB Bold 9780. The way I found to do it is installing Enhanced Gmail but it keep saying that my mobile doesn't meet the requirements.
    What's the solution?
    Thanks

    1. Go here and find your carrier.
    2. Select your BlackBerry device from the dropdown
    3. Look through the list of downloads for either All Language or East Asia
    4. Download the newest one of those available
    5. Install it to your computer
    6. Open BlackBerry Desktop Software
    7. Go to Applications on the left
    8. Find Japanese language support and Japanese input support in the list
    9. Click the + button next to both
    10. Press Apply in the bottom right
    11. Wait for the loading to finish
    12. Once your BlackBerry comes back up, go to Options (with the wrench) > Typing and Input > Language
    13. Select Japanese from the list

  • Pair messages of Bold 9780 with BMW

    Hi!
    I have paired my BB Bold 9780 BES to a BMW idrive professional system. Phone and adressbook pairing works fine, but I'm also supposed to be able to pair email and text messages. This is supposed tow work on my iDrive (2011 model) and same goes for the BB Bold 9780 (OS 6), but I can't seem to be able to get it to work.....
    Does anyone know which settings need to be set in order to get this to work? Potentially, message synchronisation fails because some settings are blocked by my IT department. Therefore I need to know what setting needs to be open so that I can direct the issue directly to them.
    I hope anyone can help!!!
    Thanks,
    Thijs

  • I installed a version of Firefox 6.0. in the Russian program, the social network for sending a short message, I can not insert a file in the message field.

    I installed a version of 6.0. In the Russian program of social network My World by sending a short message, I can not insert a file in the message or photo. How do I solve this key problems?

    I need to access Network Solutions website builder too. It isn't compatible with Internet Explorer v9, Chrome v13, or Firefox v5! I believe Firefox v6 is out now. This is a Network Solution's problem. What's involved in rolling back? Can you still get add-ons, plugins, and extensions for such an older version? You can't save your personal preferences can you?

  • Conversation View for short messages?

    I'm using Nokia features phones for a little time now, and something that I always felt like missing was a “conversation view” for short messages, instead (or aside) of the antique Received/Sent model.
    Today, I watched the promotionnal video for the Nokia 301.
    And it seems that there's finally a proper way to display discussions!
    That's really interesting!
    Now I'm wondering:
    Is this really the new SMS interface from the S40/NokiaOS system, or a specific application for chatting or for Facebook or something else?
    I'm currently using a Nokia 2700 “Classic”, using version 07.80 (18-08-09). Is there a way to update my system to the version with this new conversation view?
    Starting which version of the OS is this view implemented?
    If the 2700 is not compatible with this, is there any third-parties (.jar or something) applications for managing (safely) my SMS in a similar way?
    I plan to update to the C2-01 or the 301 one day, but not right now. For the first one, is this interface also available?
    Thank you for your answers,
    And I'm glad that's the only thing that was wrong with this OS seems to be fixed!
    Have a nice day,
    ~ nicolas

    Like on most other modern phones (including iPhones, Androids and Windows Phones) the conversation view is now the standard messaging view and cannot be changed. The old way of sorting messages in sent and received folders is pretty much a thing of the past.
    All you can really do is get used to it or find a basic phone that still uses the old sorting method. If you are upset about this I suggest you blame Apple as it was them that pretty much forced it to become industry standard.
