Reject calls with text message not working

In the phone options under the advanced Tab there is the option to reject calls and generate an automatic text message; has anybodt got this to work? It simply does nothing for me. Thanks.

Anybody have this issue?
Can somebody confirm that the reject calls text message generate function works on the Diamond......Mine does not and I'm wondering is there a Registry switch. Thanks.

just trying it now, but seems just to send it to the voicemail instead. Maybe we need to turn voicemail divert off first?
would try that, but for some reason, t-mobile doesn't seem to want to let me turn my diverts off!!
Anyone on another network care to try??

How do you turn diverts off??...cant seem to find anywhere in the phone that gives you that option ie options like when busy divert calls, when out of range divert calls etc etc

start>settings>phone>services tab
highlight call forwarding and then tap the get settings button.
Voila, Call divert options

Thanks for that...would have never guessed it would be in there lol

Btw your right, i tried to disable the voicemail feature...and it didnt work...if i press the ignore button it diverts to the voicemail...hmmm strange...

i think we need someone not on t-mobile to try it. t-mo UK is a PITA when it comes to changing stuff like voicemail settings.
Don't still have my O2 sim so couldn't try that, and am working from home for a bit today so i'm kinda stuck.
Might ask one of the guys at work to try one of our other diamonds with an orange SIM and see if that does the trick....

Its strange because on my nokia n95 8gb phone i could easily turn my voicemail on and off whenever i chose.
I did notice after i had unticked the voicemail boxes...pressed ok then exited...went back into the phone settings and saw that the boxes were ticked....as i said its strange. Because sometimes i just want the caller to hear a busy tone or the reject tone...
Hopefully someone can try with a different sim and see what happens.

it could just be that T-Mobile don't like the commands coming from the windows mobile devices then. I've only been with t-mobile since i had WM devices - about 4 years now - and i never really bothered using my other devices on the network. I think i have an old Sony Z5 around somewhere, i might charge it up and turn the voicemail off with that and then see if that helps.

Could be.,..i dont know as the Diamond is my first WM device that ive been impressed with enough to keep it.
Might give tmobile a call later and see what they have to say about it. Although i dont think im going to have much luck as when i rung them uip about mms settings they said they dont support Diamond..so couldnt help me out there.

that sounds about right for T-mo customer services.
If you can get past the usual shower of muppets on first level and get through to the guys in advanced connectivity in Doxford or Greenock, they should either be able to help or refer you to someone who can....
If i have to call them now, i refuse to speak to the lower levels and ask straight for advanced connectivity. Last time i got through (back in the days when i had my magician), was cos they'd changed their MMS settings. Finally got through to AC and they had me sorted in under 2 minutes! it's just the call filterers on levels 1 and sometimes 2 that cause the problems usually.

I have flashed the German 1.93 update to my Touch Diamond without problems and the phone is working well -- however, I don´t have the "advanced" tab in the phone option!! (and before anyone asks, no I also don´t have the German "Erweitert" Tab there).
Anyone know what´s going on here?
I´d like to turn off the short vibration the phone makes when a call is established.
Thanks // Tom

Your text message cannot be sent.

I have an unlocked At&T tilt and my service t-mobile. Lately my text messages have not been able to send. I can recieve text but i cannot reply. I'm thinkin its cuz i dropped my phone before but maybe thats not the case..Does anybody know what the problem is? I have full reception nd everything also when i try to send text. Thanks

Do you have the funds to send it?

Yeah i have unlimited texting. ive had the phone for like 3 months now. nd im just now experiencing this problem

This might be a longshot, but...
Do you happen to know if the people you are having problems with "Replying" to are using a Samsung phone?
I have three contacts in my list and am unable to reply to them. They are all using Samsung phones. Instead I have to create a new message each time I reply to them, which is quite cumbersome as I normaly turn of my phone right after sending, so I'd first read the "Your message could not be sent" notification a day or so later
I've tried replying to them with dumbphones aswell with the same problem, so I don't think it's WM specific though

I have no idea...everytime my message doesnt send, it says "error sychronizing". i dont know what that means but i know it has somethin to do with the active sync

Error sync?
Uhmm... are you sure your not using Outlook or something else? Might be you just selected wrong... But here are the tipical reasons why a mobile cannot send a text message:
-Lack of funds
-Config error (wrong message service center number, but normally config is auto)
-Lack of network connectivity
-Other phone disable, unavailable, disconnected
-Provider error

my phones done that a few times I just wait a few mn then try again and it usually works but on the otherhand trying to send and recive pics has always been a pain for me.

I dont know...i still have this problem. Sometimes it sends, but most of the time it doesnt. it pisses me off. everytime it doesnt send, it always says "error synchronizing". Maybe its cuz i have an unlocked phone?

That my be it. Because you know, you're the only one with an unlocked phone.
Seriously Have you tried a Hard Reset. Back up you stuff first.
You may try another ROM just to see if that ROM has a bug.

Same problem
hi i been having the same problem
steps i tried:
turn phone off and on
soft and hard reset
flashing new roms
inserting a different sim card. and they have no problem texting
take out all sd cards battery and turn phone off and on
and i am still unable to text it works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. full reception and everything i can receive text from everyone but i cant reply to none. girlfriend has a samsung blackjack but we never had a problem texting eachother before and friends with iphones various phones but i still cannot send a text!EVERYTHING ON THE PHONE IS FINE EXCEPT TEXT!!!!

weird, Im having the same problem. Sometimes It says error sending message try again. When I touch the try again it sends again sometimes it doesnt send and sometimes it does send but they person recieves the message like 4 times. Its annoying..it recently started to do this. About 2 weeks ago roughly. I dont really remember. Im thinking about switching radios but I dont know which one to use. Im in Houston any suggestions?

Faced that before too
Either
you don't have good signal
Or
the contact name contains <> brackets as shown or other symbols in his/her name
You can try sending to a number 1st without opening the contacts
If it works, you have no settings problem and try changing the contacts name displayed
if not
try hard resetting
Good luck
EDIT: the above is for cannot be sent msg

I get this message every once in a great while on a stock Tilt. It's frustrating when I've typed in a really long message! Only once have I noticed that I lost my connection/signal.
This problem is almost as annoying as the fact that I can sit perfectly still in my living room, and go from full signal to one bar a dozen times during a conversation.

same thing is happening with me. the last couple days i would get peoples text messages late, and then today it started, where i couldnt sent text messages, and i would get that "cant send text" message.
and ive upgraded to a new rom, then it started to happen, i dunno if its the rom, my phone, or maybe my sim card.

I started having this issue 2 days ago and its driving me nuts. everything else works but I can't seem to send any text messages out. I can get messages from anyone but sending it out... I keep getting"your text message cannot be sent"
I too have flashed 3 different roms, radios, tried other sims all to no avail..
any other suggestions?

I'm having the same problem, anyone have a fix?

I was able to fix mine by turning off 3g. I have an unlocked Tilt on tmobile. Some how 3g in the comm manager got turned on and that was causing my issue. Not sure how it got turned on since I didn't have a 3g button but with Advanced Config I added 3g button turned 3g off and now all my text's work just as they use to.

I have a Tilt unlocked for Tmobile as well and am still having this problem since Friday. How exactly do you add the 3G button to the comm manager? Is there any other way to turn off the 3G setting? Thanks in advance.

Disabling 3G worked for me too. I turned it off using Comm Manager and text messages started to work fine!
For those of you who may not have the same version of Comm Manager, here is the registry key that apparently controls this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\UMTS\OpMode
This is a dword value. Set it to 1 to disable 3G, and to 0 to reenable it.
Remember, that you will need to power cycle the phone after changing this value.
EDIT: It looks like T-Mobile is doing some testing (confirmed for Seattle area) in anticipation of launching 3G network some time in the future. I'm pretty sure that these are related. Looks like all phones that support 3G are having issues with sending text messages.

Eh I had a weird error once. This error happened while I was sending a message and the other person was sending me a message. So what happened, I sent it again after I received the other message. But it stayed in my outbox, so it kept on sending the same message to her every couple minutes lol. I had to like delete the whole messaging inbox to make it stop.

tilt sms problems

I've been searching for the last two days I can't seem to solve my problem. I did a rest on my phone because it keep freezing up on me us the stylus on the bottom of the phone. Now I cant send send text messages but I can receive them. I tried sending them to myself but they never come through I tried sending them to others and it says "Your text message cannot be sent." This is my only phone and I only have one sim. I would rather not cook any roms on my phone because it did work before the reset and I don't want to risk messing anything up.What should I do?

give att a call. they can push those settings for you over the air.

I call att they told me they could not pick up any settings because I was not with their carrier the phone is unlocked to t mobile.

Oh cmon throw him a freakn bone. You should have known to call tmobile and not att.

I dont know if this will help you but it did it for me, try intalling connection settings and you should have all your tmobile settings on your phone. on the second post of this thread there is a connection setup file. see if it helps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412449

I tried calling tmobile they went through everything that they could do but could not help me. Me and my buddy changed phones and it is definitely something with the phone and not the sim card. I cant figure out what is going on the is getting highly irritating. please can somebody help me.

AT&T Tilt Sending Delayed Texts?

Every once in awhile my texts will seem to get lost in space and not arrive at my recipients phone for sometimes a few minutes, but sometimes hours after I've sent it. It *seems* to happen more at night, but that could be because I only get into longer texting conversations at night. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem. I'm still trying to figure out whether it's a problem with my ROM, my radio, my phone or AT&T.
Has anyone had any problems like this? I'm hoping it's AT&T since I've used many different ROMs, radios and recently got my phone replaced under warranty, but I'd still like to find out.

i doubt this has anything to do with the phone itself and more the network you are on...
You can always update your roaming settings with *662 on ATT I think that helped my problem with MMS getting sent in a timely manner

Could you elaborate on this? Do I just dial *662 ?

Its the network, and believe me its being worked on.

Im not sure its *662... Any ATT store should be able to tell you...
KD8DNS- You know its the network? Is it just an ATT thing?

Its a ATT situation that is being worked out. You dont have to believe what I say, but you can take it to the bank.

KD8DNS is 100% right I have already talked to AT&T about this and it's not your PDA I've had the same problem with my Razr and several other phones. Every so often I will have a delay in voicemails arriving as well but not real often.

same problem here too. hopefully they work it out soon

KD8DNS I believe you 100%, but I'm of course obligated to ask the question-- how well is it being worked on? As in, when can people stop yelling at me for responding like 3 hours late to their texts?

1. The tech's are most likely upgrading a tower around you or building one, when I say upgrading I mean 3G. Now when this is done they have to intergrate the new tower/technology into the network so the "hand-off" works. Usually the tower/towers in the area have certain features shut off so network intergration goes without fail. This can take time, and usually takes place at night when there is less network activity. Also the time the features of the tower are shut off like sms, they are being received by the tower and stored, then when the tower is turned back on they get sent.
2. "how well is it being worked on?" I wouldn't have a job if it wasn't
3. Just tell the people what is going on. As for anything that is being developed or upgraded, there is an initial downside.
met3ora-----pm me the city you live/use your phone and ill find out whats going on.

Well, that would explain it pretty nicely and I'm actually kinda mad I didn't think of it! I go to Purdue University, so out here in West Lafayette, Indiana we got 3G pretty recently, I wanna say maybe 3 weeks ago. I really hope AT&T hurries up and gets the towers working correctly (not to yell at you, of course KD8DNS). But the thing that worried me was that I was in Chicago and I was still having this problem. My friends would tell me they only received page 1 of 2 of my texts, some would come through later and some would come throug on time.

I live in Phoenix and have 3G just about everywhere in town no problem, but this explains weird SMS problems at night

when I was in the US last week, I had to use the AT&T network and holy ****, the delays in the messages were horrible. Sometimes my wife wouldn't get them for hours....When I changed it to T-Mobile, at least she got them within a minutes or two...Don't know what carrier I am going to use when I come back to the US....

The other option is try a new sim card, i know it sounds like the typical att b.s. story, but it could help, any ATT corporate store will do this free of charge. Also if you go into a new area like another state. Try resetting your device "power cycle" that will d/l all the up to date provisioning from the tower to your device.
The other idea i just had, is you might have the wrong sms gateway number, this you would have to call att for because there are thousands of them and they are area specific.

Does the gateway matter for both receiving and sending? Here in Central KY SMS are 15m-2h delayed every time for weeks now. We have had 3G for about a year, maybe HSUPA is in the works.

Typically just receive. Also att has been upgrading the "short code" network witch also has a major part to do with send/receive txt mess. I would really suggest anyone with this problem get a new sim card.

Troubleshooting: Some SMS don't get through (German Network)

Hey everyone,
I face a SMS sending problem. I'm texting to Australia quite often and I'm (different to my t-mobile button above) with E-Plus. A long time me and my partner down under had no trouble sending/receiving text messages. But lately only half my texts get through.
We had a problem earlier this year when she was with Optus. All of a sudden my messages did not get through anymore. All of them. Then she changed to Vodafone and it seemed to work. But E-Plus (I'm actually with MedionMobile, just using E-Plus network) made their messages cheaper and now I face this problem!
It's really anoying. Now -
when I have such a problem - does it have anything to do with my Radio / Rom installed on the phone? Or is this just a network fault?
Would changing to Vodafone solve this problem since Vodafone Germany and Vodafone Australia are partner networks?
It's just that E-Plus is so much cheaper (1/3 of the price for a SMS!)
Please try to help me!

Is your operator billing you for the txts? If so, you can be sure they're transferred to your operators server correctly and your phone's alright. But you probably won't be able to get a deeper insight into what happens after that- if and where your txts are lost....
Changing networks MIGHT help, but don't count on it.
You might wanna try sending your txts using an internet-based service?! just to check... and, btw, that might be cheaper, too. I remember seeing a tool that allows you to send txts via internet-based services from your xperia using your data connection. i just can't seem to find it right now.

first: thanks for your help!
My operator is billing me for the text messages, yes. So they send it correctly. I even tried out to get a confirmation for sent items, you know? I always get the message that it has been delivered. But then she does not get the message...
I tried out to send messages from two of my class mates and from my mums phone as well as from my dads phone. Their messages all get through...
I think I know what you mean with internet based SMS sending. Innosend is such a service, huh?
But items sent throught that service do not get stored in my SMS store...But I will try it out, I guess. As well as I try a Vodafone SimCard.
I hope there is nothin wrong with my phone...

Out of interest, what phone does your partner have?

Oh, I think you got me there. Long time it was a Sony Ericsson...older one. But she got a new one two weeks ago or so. But I don't think it's her phone because the fault occured on both, her old and her new phone. I'll write it in here as soon as I know...

Ah ok cool. The reason I was asking: When I got my Xperia I soon realised that my gf was only getting around half the texts I was sending. It drove me crazy as nothing seemed to fix it - I got my phone replaced, she got hers replaced, we both got new SIMs. Just like you, the texts were showing up on bills, and O2 could see them going through their message centre, so they could not identify the problem.
Eventually I figured it out, my gf did not receive my messages when they were longer than a single message. Anything more and it simply did not show up on her phone (LG Renoir), but still seemed to send successfully and show up on my bill. I then realised that the same thing happened when sending long texts to my friend (also an LG, but a Viewty). They can both get long messages from other people, just not me, so I think there must be some sort of incompatibility between the Brands/softwares.
Probably of no help to you really, but maybe you send long messages too?

No, it's fine since I experience such a thing on my own now. Thanks for sharing! I'm gonna ask her what kind of phone she uses now. Today I removed the SIM Card from my phone and replaced it. The Xperia did a new setup on my network and afterwards my 2 sent messages came through. Maybe I just had to do that because I flashed a new Rom and later a new Radio without renewing my network options...
As you, I do not have a clue where the problem is...But also takin my mums T-Mobile Sim Card in my phone she got all messages. I believe it's the operator...I keep you guys updated when I have my Vodafone card or if it should work normally now...
Thanks for your help. Always appreciated!
edit:yes, I experienced that longer messages have less chance to get through. Sometimes they are messed up or just the first part (first 160 characters) get through...hmm
