Solution to problems sending sms - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Some modern SIM cards use automatic SMSC, so the SMSC is NOT stored on the sim as delivered from the provider.
HTC Touch Diamond/WM6 can't handle this.
Unfortunately the interface does not allow you to set it (incorrectly reports network error)
Here is a workaround for different OSs, let's start with WP6:
1) Download the nice tool ATcommander from this thread
Url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2715738
2) Unfold exe to the phone
3) Run the exe on the phone
Enter
AT+CSCA?​Click send, verify that the number is not set or incorrect
Enter (substitute your providers SMSC, +4540390999 is danish TDC)
AT+CSCA="+4540390999",145​Click send
(145 indicattes international number, see se eg http://www.developershome.com/sms/cscaCommand.asp)
4)
Boot it, and enjoy!
ADDENDUM I:
In below posts different syntaxes has been reported as needed for other (early Android) phones. Like:
AT+CSCA="004540390999"​ (no type and country code indicated by 00 not +)
AT+CSCA="40390999"​ (no type, and no country code)
Please try to see what works for the chipset and OS of your phone
ADDENDUM II:
For Androids like the Xperia 2011 phones (at least it works with 2.3.4) you can access the SMSC setting with a build in function.
In the dialer enter
*#*#4636*#*# (4636="INFO")​select "Phone information"
Scroll down to SMSC and click "Refresh"
You will see an entry (including the quotes) like
"+4531300040",145​for 3.dk in Denmark
And you can edit/enter the SMSC as needed and press Update
As you might have noticed, the format is identical to the "AT+CSCA" parameters above, so it is most likely just a nice wrapping.

PS this problem has apperantly been around for years, so the problem is most likely WM not HTC.
see e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-242938.html
That describes exactly the same error I got
ER
PPS Keywords, the errormessage:
"Try viewing settings later, or disconnect data connection and try again"

Thank yo very much it worked for me just fine.
I had a problem with my new Xperia x1 and 3G sim from Saudi Arabia telecom Co.
The problem was unability to send SMS messages while I can receive them and sim cannot read sms network settings as well.
WITH YOUR WORKAROUND SOLUTION, I was able to resolve this trouble so, many thanks again and again.

I have HTC HD and had the same issue. About two months I have looked for solution for this problem.
And finally I got it ... here
Thank You so much eske.rahn !!!

Hi, not sure if this is the correct thread for this so sorry if i'm wrong. Have an SMS problem on my phone which is kinda similar to this. I can't send sms messages!!! They just sit in the outbox.
I have a mda IV which is unlocked and am using an O2 sim on it. Everything works great except that now and then I can't send SMS (texts), can receive them ok but not send. Tried my sim in other phones and works ok. Tried other sims in my phone and they don't work either. Also tried soft/hard reset. Have the correct number in the SMS settings and my phone registers on the network ok.
Anyone help please???????
update: i now haven't been able to send a text for 2 days. I don't get any error messages when i try and send.

Sorry for the late reaction, haven't reviewed this thread for ages...
This does indeed sound like the same problem. Can you see/change your SMSC?
If you already have the correct number entered as SMSC the workaround described will not help. The SMSC is provider dependant. There are many lists 'out there' with SMSC's. So google "SMSC" and your providers name, this should provide you with the correct number.

He he, I too wasted a lot of time searching to no avail, until I remembered that this used to be an issue on my old phones a decade ago.

Thanks for this - worked first try on my Diamond which was OK untill I flashed a new ROM (Natalay 2.100). When I tried to check the message centre number I got the cannot read error. It would read other sim cards and another phone could read my sim card (an Orange 3G sim). I tried changing the radio several times and was about to get a new sim card as it was the only other solution I could find that had worked for other people. I can now read the message centre number OK.

I love XDA comunity!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks it worked

big thanks finally my xperia works as it should

really thanx man it helped .... i've been searching for over 6 month for a way i could change by it the message center

Still doesn't work for me, when i'm on andriod..

it didnt worked for me !!!
I'm from romania ..i own a htc diamond and i just did what you told me to do with AT comannder
it went well until i had to send at+csca = "the number it showed",145
and it gives me an error....
i have tried in so mani ways.. even the => start/settings/phone/band
im finding hard to believe that i can't do anything !
Thank you for your time...and hope that someone comes up with a solucion!

thx for this very useful topic. Solved my problem in seconds...

Just to note that for Android this didn't work for me until I changed the number to remove the + sign and substitute 00. Also removed the ,145 at the end.
So, for example:
AT+CSCA="+31653131313",145
Would become:
AT+CSCA="0031653131313"
Not sure if this is the case in all builds, but it certainly fixed mine. The SMS in WM still works with this change, so no harm done.

thanks you are very helpfull

For Vodafone AU the SMSC was stored on the SIM but in +61... format, I alo had to change it to a local only number using:
AT+CSCA="0415011501"
WM still works and Android now works after that. Hopefully I don't need to go overseas for a while...

Thanks its work, with my HTC Diamond and Indosat simcard,
Thx you....

thanks very much! spent many hours hard resetting, talking to my service provider, etc. this finally works.

hi,
i face similar problems with htc diamond, wm6 & nataly rom. sometimes i do not receive some sms. i dont have a problem in the outgoing messages. only in the incoming. any help ?

Happy
I'm glad to see that it had helped people.
And sorry for the delayed reaction, been out of this forum for a few years...
But yes markzb, the implementation of AT-commands of the 'modem' might vary slightly. Thanks for the input on what syntax other phones accepts *ThumbsUp*. I'm not sure if it is an OS or chipset difference, but I would guess chipset...

E-Mail from HTC europe

i received this e-mail this weekend in regards to my breeze always dropping calls. it refers to a new update but only via the support centre
Good Morning,
?
The fact that your calls drops is?not normal, if it does that you should try
to Hard reset the device.
If the hard reset doesn't sort the issue you will need to send the phone to
repair.
Note: hard reset will delete all data from the device, you need to save your
personnal files and synchronize your device first.
I can confirm we have recently released a new ROM update for the Mteor.
?
Due to the complex nature of this ROM update we will not be offering this
download via our website. Instead we are offering it through our network of
repair centres.
?
From the information you have provided your local repair centre are:

HI, just try to deactivate the Umts Bandselection... means don't choose Auto .... just try GSM only....
i have Problems to when have activated the AUTO feature...
steve
i have done, thought it fixed it for a whole day aswell, however it seems to make it happen less but it still happens a few times a day
well got the phone back, they actually replaced it so got a new 1 out of the mix and the fact i bought it off ebay second hand - bonus!
the dropping of calls still occurs but it seems its the 3G orange payg sim i have. i will try and get a new one out of orange on saturday and see if that works, i know its the sim as i tried a orange 2G payg sim and it has no problems whatsoever
so its oranges fault and HTC's for not making it work correctly with the sim.
Dan
No new rom on it then? ;p
the rom had a .3 at the end of it instead of .1
the radio was the same too.
My MTeoR arrived today. I also have a "3G sim" or whatever they are.. the one that came with my Nokia N95. That same sim has worked perfectly in my E50 for the past three months, but in the MTeoR I am frequently being disconnected during calls, and even when the phone is off-call, the display changed from "3G Orange" to "No Service" quite frequently.
This is no good
wow, i know it doesn't help its nice to know its not just me breaking the phone like i seem to do to everything electrical
by the way t-mobile, vodafone sims i have work fine in 3g mode, its obviously a orange problem. i have e-mailed them again asking if its a common problem. all i can say is you do the same and maybe our collective voices will be heard.

TYTN II Missing Calls

Hey guys, I'm new here, and I guess I should start off with "HELLO!" instead of throwing my problems at you...but alas.
I've just recently purchased the TYTN II (factory unlocked from Taiwan), and love it--minus this one, relatively annoying problem: the phone seems to be missing a lot of calls. I could be sitting with full (reception) bars, and the TYTN will send someone straight to voice mail. I've never had any problems dialing out, and just to reiterate, I don't believe that it's a reception problem. This "call rejection" problem seems to occur sporadically, and is usually solved when I make a call out. I'll give you an example of the problem.
1) Friend calls, gets to voice mail.
2) Friend calls my house, I look at my phone, full bars.
3) I have Fido's "Who Called" service, so shortly I get a text saying I missed a call from such and such number. (Oh, yes, text messages don't seem to be affected by this problem)
4) I call my phone, from my house, knowing full will it has full bars and that I just got a text message.
5) I get the damn voice mail, directly.
6) I call my house using the cell--no problems.
7) I call my cell again, and lowe and behold, it works.
The only logical conclusions I've been able to come up with so far are that:
A) for some reason, Fido's (Rogers') towers seem to have a hard time staying connected with my phone...which doesn't make too much sense since I still get text messages problem-free.
B) since they've just recently switched to HSDPA (yes, I'm using WCDMA), that the network has a hard time switching back and fourth from GSM.
C) the "Name Display" service which comes with my value package...(and can't take off separately) is incompatible with my phone, thus causing certain calls to be rejected with an incoming call is received with this data.
D) God forbid, my phone has a problem...and I need to get my friend to go back to Taiwan and fetch me a replacement.
Sorry for my first post being such a lecherous one...but I do hope someone is able to help me out! I'm not to sure what I expect any of you to do...maybe verify that this is some sort of authentic problem...and not scenario "D" so I can pray for a solution to this problem in the.........future (yes, it may be a long and distant future, but for some reason, I'm able to bare with this issue if there is a glimmer of hope). Thank you guys so much!
That problem reminds me back in the days with my wizard, but that issue, the caller would hear rings on their side, but wizard wouldn't get a missed call or ring. That was due to what version radio you had. For that, not sure what it is. You can explore switching radios and seeing if that works. Certain radios work better in certain areas. I have AT&T in the U.S. and rarely have that problem. Sometimes I get that with bad reception...but that is with bad reception, not good reception.
Radio
This is almost certainly a radio issue. There is a thread with every radio currently available stickied at the top of the kaiser upgrading section.
Thanks for the replies so far guys, but if my understanding is correct, and this "radio" problem only effects the output of sound from my TYTN (thus not able to hear the call coming in), then I don't believe that I am experiencing this issue. Like I said, the calls are going DIRECTLY to voice mail. I've held the phone in my hand when getting this "call reject" problem. No sign of an incoming call whatsoever. Thanks again guys!
Radio
Oh, and I also just checked, I have Radio Version: 1.27.15.32, which I believe is more recent than the current radio versions being offered on here...I don't believe 'downdating' will help, will it?
I sometimes get a problem sort of like this. I live in an edge area and this comes up if I'm surfing the net. Sometimes it's like the connection is never released and I have to soft reset the phone before I can make or receive calls again.
It's FIDO's problem ! probably you are in Canada ! I have two kaisers with exactly the same problem !!! try to disable the 3G. go to phone\menu\options\band and change the network type to GSM.
I haven't had any problem so far
Thanks, hma4. That was one of my guesses...sort of makes my data package moot, though. Thanks to everyone who tried to help out!
Oh, and by the way, 'hello fellow members of xda-developoers."

FWIW, "downdating" as you called it, has actually solved many problems with reception and battery life of the Kaiser, and for some has helped with the Camera (How? I dunno... it's still just a slow and laggy camera to me that needs an excessively large amount of light for a decent picture).
So changing your radio could indeed actually help. Now as for which radio is best well... apparently that depends on your area. Most seem to swear by 1.27.11.31 and 1.27.12.17. 1.27.12.10 is a newbie that hasn't been tested much, but people seem to get good results from it as well.

This is a much sought after radio for testing since it's later than any other non-at&t radio. If you could only dump it for the rest of us.
Sure thing, just show me how.

I have an MDA VArios III and have the same issue. Did that suggestion fix your issue?
In addition to this my handset sometimes cannot switch off. It just stays permanently on. Even a soft reset doesnt help. If I leave it for a day, it seems to sort itself out. I've deleted a prog i loaded call "Touch Commander", It hasnt happen since so I am not sure if it has fixed the latter issue.
Cheers

I'm on Fido, and I have the exact same issue. I never missed any calls when I put my sim card in my old Magician. I guessed it was a network problem, but I had no comfirmation.
I'm going to go with compatibility issues between Fido/Rogers and the Tytn II... I'm just praying that this is an 'early' adopter issue for HSDPA enabled phones. I haven't tried to go back to GSM because this problem is so sporadic that it might be days before I figure it out. No missed calls today. Good luck to all of us who have the Fido/Rogers + Tytn II combination.

If you can, use this procedure from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359015
I've added additional steps to help:
Requirements
- Qualcomm QPST software (attached in thread)
- QC diagnostics drivers (attached in thread)
- HardSPL, only needed if you want to dump from a production model
Procedure
1. Restart in tri-color bootloader mode and start MTTY in USB mode
2. Type: rtask a
3. Type: radata Note: What you type is not echoed on screen!!!! (after pressing enter ignore the error message "Parameter error")
4. Type: retuoR Note: What you type is not echoed on screen!!!!
5. Type: rtask c
After step 5. the device will enter QC diagnostics mode and it will install 3 new devices on your PC. Make sure you install the attached drivers. After driver installation look in device manager to find which COM port the QC diag driver uses.
6. Exit MTTY
7. Start "QPST Configuration" and check if the device is recognized and if it is in "download" mode
8. Start "QPST Memory Debug", click "Get Regions" and then "Save To"
9. Upload the dumped files on XDA Devs FTP server
Dump NV Items
The configuration of radio are stored as NV items. It is possible to dump these as follows:
1. Hold down camera button and hit "Reset Phone" in the Memory Debug Application
2. Restart in tri-color bootloader mode and start MTTY in USB mode
3. Type: rtask c
4. Exit MTTY and start "QPST RF NV Item Manager" and select Read from Phone from the File menu followed by Write Only listed Items to .QCN file
5. Also, select Write Only listed Items to .TXT file.
I've already dumped my 1.27.12.32 and uploaded to XDA dev for analysis for the steps needed to rebuild it back into a .nbh that can be reflashed.

Hi all,
I was searching the forums for info on exactly this issue. I am having the same problem using a touch cruise on Fido. arg! is it a 3g thing? any new news or ideas? I certainly hope I don't have to turn 3G off in order to ensure I can receive calls consistently!

How to change SMS Service Centre? Can't send SMS!

Guys,
any idea how to change the SMS service center on Diamond???
when I try to send a SMS I get a message that the message cannot be sent and that I need to check my SMS Service center number.
When I put a different SIM card from the same provider it works normally. Also when I put a SIM card from a different provider everything works OK.
I have searched through Diamond forum and haven't find any relevant information.
However i did notice that people had issues with this one in some other WinMo phones.
I tried 2 ROMs and the same thing happens:
SwiftBL 6.0 and panosha Shine On 1.3
My SIM card works normally in other phones (Samsung etc.)
Any ideas on this one??
Soon I'm gonna start closing instead of moving threads!
Yes i have got the same problem since i have updated the phone to the new 1.93
Since then i turned the phone back to other ROM's but the problem stays.
It is the problem with the Telfort Provider en other providers will send it directly.
Strange problem.
But where is the problem? In the phone or with the provider?

1. Turn back to only stock Radio version (may be Radio v1.00.25.03)

2. Or, change your sim card with a brand new one.

I've got the same problem with a Telfort SIM here in Holland (after flashing from 1.37 stock to custom 1.93 ROM, not sure if it worked on stock). Couldn't find an easy way to change the SMSC myself. It proved hard for me to send an AT+CSCA command to the Diamond. And I haven't found software that uses SmsSetSMSC from the Windows Mobile Version 5.0 SDK. So I could write it myself, but first I'll ask if Telfort will let me try a new SIM and see if it'll send SMS, because I don't want to return to 1.37..
Definitely a new SIM, I don't want to stick to one ROM just because of that...
By the way, provider is Telenor Serbia

I'm back from the Telfort shop. Showed the girl behind the counter how I couldn't send SMS and change SMS settings. Swapped SIM's. She could send SMS with my SIM on her Nokia and I could send SMS with her SIM on my Diamond.. I'll get a new SIM for free, problem solved.

Help - SMS won' work and O2 have no solution atm.

Got my ignito the other day and realised yesterday that I haven't received any texts. The girlfriend also asked why I hadn't replied to her messages, and when I tried to send a message it comes up with:
Your text cannot be sent, check service center address in settings
Click to expand...

Have looked through the settings and cannot find anywhere where to input the service centre number for O2. Also tried t O2 and O2 service settings programs in the program list, and they have problems connecting to retrieve any settings. Also on the O2 customer forum other people don't seem to have this problem.
Also have called customer services and even they are a bit unaware and wern't even in the know that this phone had been released. The data service guy over there hasn't even got any settings to push to the phone and has gone off to look for some.
Any ideas ?
Edit: The technical guy talked me through going into strat->settings and the phone area, then clicking on services and the 'voice mail and text messages' then retriving the settings to get to the message centre number. But when i do this the error thrown up says:
Cannot read settings from the network, try viewing settings later or disconnect data connection and try again.

Tried taking out battery and a hard eset and nothing has helped. The only thin I have done to the phone is update to HARD-SPL but have not flashed a custom ROM yet. Could this be the problem at all, as I didn't test the SMS before updating this ?

Might not help but have you tried removing sim and replacing?

Ye the customer service guy got me to do that, and reset, but still the same. Just tried it again and still nothing. Will try my friends SIM card in the ignito to make sure it isn't my old SIM card.
Just managed to send an MMS to someone on the desk next to me at work, so just seems like MMS. Fiddling with different settings in the MMS, like gateway number ports etc, and MMS still works with a number of possible settings but no SMS.
Really hope I didn't screw it up with the HARD SPL, but will try other versions of that tonight.
Cleaned the SIM and nothing, plus a big thing I CAN RECEIVE TEXTS, but still can't send them. But in the phone settings area I can connect to the network for all the other options like call barring, caller ID, call forwarding, and call waiting, just not the voicemail and SMS option.
Lol comedy of errors.
start>settings>connections>advanced network
SMS Tab
there will be 4 possible settings here.
I sugest you try each of them, with a powercycle between each attempt just for good measure.
I had this on T-Mobile - the Sim didn't input the settings on install.
Go to phone > menu > options > services > voice and text settings and click get settings, you can try to input the service centre if it isn't there or wrong.
Cheers for that boys but still no luck. Tried all the GSM GPRS settings in the SMS tab and still the same.
ericson68, tried that lots the day I realised i was having text problems, plus the guy on the phone from O2 got me to try that, but as soon as i click on the SMS/voicemail settings tab it rejects it and says unable to contact. All other tabs on there can be conected to, like call baring etc, just the texts one which is screwed.
O2 have offered to give me a new one when a courier comes to collect the old one. only problem is my billing address is my parents house where the box is, so have to send the phone back to them tomorrow through our royal fail post system. Special delivery time I think.
Could the hard SPL upgrade have affected this in anyway, Im still running the ROM that came with it though ?
Just out of interest if you do a hard reset and then insert the sim do you get a notification asking to set up o2, or is your phone o2 branded?

The phone is O2 branded and has O2 software on it as well.
I have just hard reset it without the SIM card in and it installs some O2 things going through the progress bar, and also brings up a page to do with O2 GPRS settings and automatically configuring it.
another try
Hi
(sorry, I missed that you alredy tried this)
I have a swedish phone so I am guessing the English meny names.
Maybe you can try this.
Go into settings, select phone, select services, tap "voicemail and sms", tap "get settings from network" and see what happens. You should receive the sms servicec enter number.
Kindest Regards

Change the SIM card
Hi,
if you search the forum you will see that several people have the same problem, including myself...
Anyways, only solution (so far) is to change the SIM card. So just change your SIM card with your provider and it should work (this is probably free or really cheap anyways, you keep the same number etc.).
I have an unlocked Diamond and the same problem. Only my SIM card with Telenor provider does not work. Other Telenor cards work and also cards from different provider work.
So just change the SIM card and it should work (some people already tried it and it worked, I am too lazy to go to the store, but I will do it soon. until then I have another SIM card (different number) which works fine)
Cheers!
was this number ported to o2, or was it a new contract?
i had the same problem in the first 24 hours, worked fine after that.
Hey
Sorry didn't reply. Just after my last post I tried a friends SIM card at work and it worked fine, so must be my old sim card (5 yrs). My contract was an upgrade and have been with O2 for those 5 yrs.
New card on way to me now, thanks for all the help !

You should ask your operator for a new SIM card. I got the same error message and after days trying all kinds of ways, I still couldn't set the SMS center number. Then I read about others having the same problem. In all cases a new SIM card proved to be the only solution. And it also worked for me. So, good luck!
Settings>Personal>Phone>Services>Voice Mail and Text Messages...Get Settings...
You can change the Message Center number there. By default it takes the number from the SIM.
this problem only exist in this phone and my other cellphones didn't have problem with my SIM card I test it on P990 and N6681. Also I test it with 2 other oparators SIM
also when try to get Settings... it said Cannot read settings from the network. Try viewing settings later, or disconnect data connection and try again.

I finally went to the local Telfort shop, after I read about the SIM cause/solution. I showed the same error message and swapped SIM's with the girl behind the counter. Her newer SIM worked on my Diamond and my older SIM worked on her Nokia. That proved the combination of my older SIM and the Diamond was the problem. So I got a new SIM for free and now no more problems getting settings and sending SMS
I test my SIM and SMS Center setting exist in SIM card,
anyone know that this problem is related to SPL, RADIO or OS? or may be SIM Lock?
I can recieve SMS and also call with all 3 SIMs

It could be the radio version.. Apart from that I wouldn't know if it's related to anything specific in the Diamond. It looks like there's nothing wrong with my SIM unlocked Diamond and it looked like there wasn't anything wrong as such with my previous SIM, either, as I could send SMS with it on other devices.
Somehow, it's is the combination of those two together. Like you, except for getting the Voice Mail and Text Messages settings, I could receive SMS, call and get all the other network settings with the old SIM. With the new SIM, I can send SMS and get the Voice Mail and Text Messages settings.
but my problem appear after ROM upgrade, before that I used my SIM and phone for more than 2 month
also I used 2 other sims from other oparators and this operator non of them working

I know. I didn't have a problem either with my previous SIM on the stock 1.37 ROM. The problem appeared after flashing a 1.93 ROM. So if you want to keep using your current SIM's, or can't get a newer SIM, you can also flash back your previous ROM and see if that works for you..
