hi, i just got the 3G service from my local company and it is working fine on my new tilt.
the thing is i have a phone number but i am not able to call it from other phone or receive text msgs. ( i am getting "phone is temporaly unavailable for receiving calls")
i called them and they told me that to have 3g and voice at the same time i have to get another contract for the voice but i will like to use the cards u can buy anywhere.
is there a way i can do it even with the company telling me that i cant ?
also, the guy told me that i have to add a number somewhere in the phone to at least have the text messages services but i cant find where in my tilt.
thanks.
Everytime i recieve a text message it's 4 hours behind what time i'm recieving it or sending one out any idea why the time is off for text messaging ? Att tilt unlocked unit Fido network in canada. Tried sending one from fido's website to my phone, from bell phone and from another fido user alway's 4 hours behind.
Your message is difficult to understand what is happening:
1. When you get a message at noon time it is dated at 8 AM but it was sent at noon time - i.e. you got it right after it was sent but the time on the message is off.
OR
2. four hours after someone send you a message you actually get the message.
If it is option 2 - how often do you have your email set to check for email?

Hi there, I searched around and couldnt really find anything that would help me. I Am using an HTC Tytn 2 and my Service Provider is Rogers. I have a data and phone plan with them so i know i get to send MMS messages, as I have already sent them before. All of a sudden I cannot. They sit trying to send and then just sit in my outbox. Any Ideas?

Same problem here
I have the At&t tilt but unlocked it to work with Tmobile...Can't send or recieve mms. Dont have a data plan but have wifi in my home and it still says i can't download. Help please...Thanks
you guys need to read plain and simple...
so instead of just making a remark, could you not possibly point in the right direction. I bet it would be more useful
I'm on AT&T in the US and I just bought a Diamond a couple days ago. I have unlimited texting/data plan but for some reason, about 80% of the time I try to send text messages, it says "Text message cannot be sent" and doesn't have any details as to why, it just doesn't do it. I then have to click "retry" about 5 times and then it finally sends it.
It only does this if I'm replying to a text, it works 100% of the time when I compose one and send it off to someone I'm not already having a convo with. Also, I know it's not my service because I switched backed to my Sony Ericsson and it works fine, so I'm not sure what's wrong with my Diamond. Anyone know?
It's the Diamond - I get this exact thing all the time and it's as frustrating as hell. I'm using a Sim free on UK T-Mobile. I miss my UIQ phone quite often but I do like my Diamond for the consistency of the OS so can't bring myself to go back to my SE.
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
