Hi,
Does anyone heard about S/W showing this information?
I tried to get it from the trace logger with trace viewer (more info here:
http://www.xda-developers.com/tracelogview/) and I tried to find it with the AtDbg (AT command viewer, in windows directory), but nothing...
It is important for me... I have it on my Nokia 7650, (from here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/7650-soft/files/Apps/Net Monitor 7650.zip), and I want to compare, to compare the RF behavior.

Ok this is what I've got so far.
There is no software at the moment that can display such info on the
background screen. The reason is because every developer is having
a spasm trying to get the microsoft SMS API to function correctly.
You can turn on the CELL INFO, by using the cell broadcasting feature
located in your phone, however the channels to receive is purely
depending where you are living. In Australia the channel is 50.
However after a while you will get so sick of the delivery method, which
is by SMS. There are people trying to write a software to take this
SMS and display it in a application on the background screen. However
Mircosoft SMS API only allows ONE application to receive SMS messages.
If other applications try to call the function openSms, it will return a failure
code informing that the handler is already currently used. I have tried
to unhook the MS SMS reciver software, however then I am confronted
with the issue of writing the entire software again to store the SMS messages. I do not know how Paragon did it with their SMS name software, but they seem to have more of a clue then I do, they are probablly the best to ask and I wish they would provide the source code
for that free software.
Does this cell broadcast cost the normal SMS charge?
Or is this just how the information is received, in SMS format?
Thanks.
Cell Broadcast is free of charge to receive.
On 'normal' phones the CB messages are usually shown on your main-display as a ticker-tape.
On the XDA / MDA the messages are treated as incoming SMS, which is a bit awkward as for some CB services, you receive a new message every 30 seconds . . .
Hi,
I'm trying to use MMS on my XDA II... Everything seems to be OK to send MMS-messages (my recepient receives my MMS-messages without problems).
When I receive MMS-messages from someone, I could not download them! I re-entered my settings a few times without success! Then I contacted my mobile network provider to see what's happening!
I only receive the header of the MMS-messages, but I could not download that messages!
What I noticed is that I'm using version 1.5.0.7 of the ArcSoft MMS Composer. Do I need an upgrade to receive MMS-messages or what?
I know there is a newer version (1.6.0.9), but I don't know if this will solve my problem.
I took a look at the website of ArcSoft, but could not find any upgrades or patches.
Anyone has a suggestion what to do or had the same problems?
FYI: Every 2 hours I got a notification that I have a new message, but this always the same message...
Thanks,
Sam
A collegue of mine has a similar problem, he can send ok, but does not receive any MMS. His XDA2 when configured for another Telco Provider has no problems. Will revert if I find a solution. Apparently not all Telcos have the same infrastructure setup.
talked to the telco provider, they believe it is their SIM card. Are sending me a new one.
Ok
so I've unlocked my XDA and use a 3 sim. I can make calls just fine, I can receive text messages just fine but I cannot send texts messages.
Also, I cant access my sim contacts either. I can get around this by copying my contacts to the PC and then to the XDA but I use multiple PC's and am always forgetting not to synchronise contacts on any PC's other than the one with the correct data so I keep losing it.
Anyone got any ideas how I can resolve this.
I have an update for you all.......
I've spoken with 3 and they have assurd me (for what it is worth) that they have not imposed any restrictions on sending SMS (I wondered because I know alot of people take the 3 contract for the cheap calls and then don't use any 3 services but use the O2 roam facility that presumably costs 3 money) so I have to assume I have a set up or technical problem with the XDA.
When I try to use SIM Manager I get an error message saying "Sim is busy. Wait 5 seconds and try again.". Well I wait and wait but it doesn't get any better than that.
SIM Toolkit does nothing when I try to use it, not even the graciousness to give me an error message.
3 said just type in the servcie centre number and away you go (they also said to uncheck the "use unicode when necessary" box) but that doesn't seem to help. Also after I type the service centre number in and try to send an SMS, which fails everytime, I go back to where you enter the service centre number and the field is blank again.
The error message I get when I try to send an SMS is "Your SMS message has not been sent because the SIM is invalid. Contact your customer service center for a new SIM" Well, of course my 3 sim is valid,it works just fine in the e616.
The SMS messages appear in the "Sent" directory even though they haven't been sent (and they really haven't or at least they certainly haven't been received)
ROM Version is 3.17.03 Eng (in fact it's the XDA developer ROM)
ROM Date 05/15/03
Radio Version 4.16.00 (I down graded to this to get the thing unlocked)
Protocol Version 32S54
Hi. I am asking this question for my partner who has an iMate Smartflip and she always roasts me for not sending here texts when I know I have. (I have a TyTnII with delivery noti on).
It appears she sends an SMS to me and I answer immediately, her Smartfilp does not pick it up but if she receives one 'out of the blue' it's OK. This is also very hit and miss in the way it fails.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen this. Checked the Forum and can't seem to see anything.
Cheers.
BTW, tried the obvious and put the SIM card in a different phone and it works fine....
Doesn't she use any data connection (GPRS)? The SMS should be delivered even when are connected but I have experienced delays of messages (I recieved SMS's few hours after the sending even my phone was turned on).
No GPRS in use as it's a PAYG SIM. Just the standard service center number.
It's really strange, the messages are not delayed, just don't appear on the phone even if I send them and get back a delivery notification as if its getting certain data it can't handle.
It's probably been fixed in a HTC firmware update but you know how iMate are slow to follow...
You can install any firmware you want to. If it's not a problem for you/her I hope update (which wipe out all user data as well) helps you. The newest firmware from Cingular would be probably the best one. (I dont have phone from Cingular but Im using their fw so it must be the same with iMate)
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which i am having a really irritating SMs problem with.
My dad lives in Cyprus, when he sends me an SMS i can not reply, when i try it just says 'sending' then 'failed' . In order to get the text SMS to send to him i have to delete the message thread, then start a new message and it will send. Now if he then replies, i will need to delete the message thread again in order to be able to send him a new message.
I do not have this issue with any other contacts that i am aware. The only difference with my dad is that he lives abroad in Cyprus, and all my other contacts are here in the UK. Has anyone else had this issue? Know what causes it? I have deleted and recreated the contact but still the same.
Many thanks.
Do you have your dad's number stored in contacts with country code or not ? I was on the verge of smashing my phone when i was abroad, trying to call persons in my native country and i couldn't because i didn't have numbers stored with country code. Maybe that's your issue too
I think the problem is related to what SMS server your dad is using, I had same issue with my X-girls phone, no one could direct reply to SMS...
Hi, thanks for the replies.
Sp1tfire, i have changed the number configuration around several times, all with no success.
Fritz, this sounds plausible, however this would surely affect other phones replying? I don't have this issue when using my iphone 4 so it only happens from the Galaxy2 at the minute. I will try and use a colleagues Android phone to text him and test it.
Somehow you, or TSP (Telephone Service provider), have inserted a sms mail server address that is not valid.
here in my country, there has been scams, "cheaper SMS, enter this server setting" and stuff like that, so there is a setting on you phone that is wrong.

Can't be cause of settings, if he can actually send new sms to that number, but he can't reply from the received sms. His settings are correct as long as he can send sms. Must be something else. Are you using default sms app or a third party software ?

I am using the stock SMS app. I have just wiped the phone and installed the KF2 firmware. Going to see if that helps.
Sp1tfire, thats right, i can only reply to him when i delete the existing thread. I can however send new SMS to him no problem, so long as the thread is deleted before hand. Very frustrating as i lose the history every time.
Update, exactly the same on KF2 Firmware.
Ok, so i tried with a friends HTC desire and he has the same issue. also found my brother who has an iphone 3gs is unable to reply to my Dads number. So at least know its no longer just my phone and that it must be something the other end. Many thanks for the help.
Same problem here
When I reply to my girl it says: failed, when i delete the whole thread it goes.
It's only when I text her, all the other contact go fine
On my old sgs I had it to, but only on stock, when I was on CM7 it was OK.
Cant imagine that its something with the other phone i'm sending it to though

I remember in all the previous phones I've had, there's been a setting in the SMSC Settings allowing the user to specify whether or not to "Reply using the same SMSC" (or something along those lines).
If the option is ticked, the phone attempts to reply to the message through the SMSC that the text originally came from (rather than the one set in your handset).
The cause of the error may be because the SMSC overseas does not recognise your phone/SIM and therefore won't allow the replying message to go through.
And perhaps this may explain why deleting the whole thread and restarting a brand new message works - that is, the new message will go through the SMSC that is set in your phone for your own network.
Although, I've had a look through the settings in my SGS2 and can't seem to find that setting anywhere... (doesnt mean it's not there - it could just be that I don't know my phone well enough because I've only had it for a few days ).
I think your dad's SMS configuration settings is forcing you (or any other person he is sending an SMS to) to reply through his operators message centre
Ask him to check his sms settings and disable any such message centre settings from his side. This should solve the problem.
