[Q] Can't send SMS, can answer my phone, call phonecalls. - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I can do everything exept sending a sms.
Can answer, call. Tried three types of SIM-card. And since the new Android, "it finds the sms-server itself."
So, I wanna downgrade maybe, if there is someone that could give me a quick guide, and talk to me like skype/msn meanwhile, im no noob on computer, just got damn tired of reading site after site and cant find my answer.

What have you done to your phone in the first place? if this is a new phone and you have not done anything to it, then go and see your Telco about the SMS setting!
Let us have more details so we can help you out here!

What do you mean with "Telco about the SMS setting"..?
No. Just sometimes, when I talk in my phone, it could happend, it just "restarts" and requires me to enter my PIN again.
What I've done to my phone in the first place, nothing. Downloaded the GoLauncher as another design since the original-design sucks balls. But, can't understand why.
Bought the phone... in january.

Try flashing ur fone a see

What did I do now? Cant send/recieve sms/text messages!

As the title says having trouble sending or receiving texts. I could imagine this could be a number of things so I dont know where to start. I am running dutties software and kaiser tweak... think I tweaked something to stop letting me text?
I installed the O2 SMS Plus program, and for some reason it prevented me from getting texts. Just a thought.
Also, check your radio
Everything seems to be functioning... hmmm. This might be a hard reset issue. Although hopefully not as its a pain to reinstall everything. I turned on sent message notice and I get it so its trying to send em!
I completely hard reset my device to Dutties... still cant send and recieve texts!!!!
Whats your provider? Alot of AT&T people have been having issues recently with the data/messaging plan do you have another phone you can plug your sim card into and test?
If I had to wager a guess, I'd say that you have some corrupted directories on your actual storage card, which is why the hard reset didn't help.

Make sure your SMS message center number is correct, for your provider. Each provider has their own settings. If it's AT&T, you can go to http://wireless.att.com/support.
On that page you can find help for your device and SMS in particular. If you have a different provider, you're on your own.
Wow lot of great ideas here. My first plan of action is to load the new version of Dutty's on to see if that has an effect. I have checked the message number. I hate calling tech support because I always talk to some guy who's been with the company about a week and doesnt even know what the **** a tilt is. Hes like... who makes it. I say HTC. He asks whats that stand for? I say I have no ****ing clue. He says he needs a manager. Im like WTF!
I had the same problem before. I suggest calling your provider and make sure you have messaging turned on. Sounds dumb but i had switch data plan and it took off unlimited text mesaging (new data plan didnt have unlimteid text messaging as a bundle) one day and right after i flashed q-mobile. Thinking it was the rom the whole time it turned out i didnt have texxt messaging turned on.
you know......maybe before reflashing your phone or hard resetting it, maybe you should first pop the sim into another phone and see if you can actually sms or not
to late for that but Ill try that now
Ahhh it is my sim card!!!!!!!! Damnit I lost it alll via hard reset. Should have been more patient, now I gotta call those losers and biatch them out!
Called them up my text message plan somehow fell off my plan. -sigh- Now I lost all my games and apps. Owell I can update to the latest Dutty's!

Damn I had a p800 milleniums ago haha. Im not sure what you mean, do you want to pretend to be sending from another number or do u just want to be able to send txts through the internet connection on your phone?
well both really but you could put a name or a number say u could send it from your friend from POLICE or him self or his wfe saying hes ugly was a really cool prog

haha never heard of anything like that before but it sounds cool. do u remember what the prog was called wen u had the p800?
no sorry i dont i still have my p800 i can look see if its still on there but i doubt it
lol I had something similar on my PC... wish I still had this program.
Bluetooth
The only way I've ever known how to send message from someone else is through bluetooth hacking as far as over the net that would be awsome and if you figure it out let me know lol I could def freak some people out!
BT Spammer does this, but again its via bluetooth only(so u have to be nearby the potential victim)
With smartSMS I believe you can mask your number. In addition, there definitely used to be an application where you could enter any random number and send a sms thru data but I cannot for the life of me remember either. Finally, provider websites used to provide sms over the internet where you could enter any random "sender" number as long as the receiver's cell number was listed with that service provider.
edit: nvm smartsms doesn't do it but I know there used to be an app as well.
Am I the only one who finds this absolutely scary/horrible? I'm sure you're wanting this just to mess around with someone, but think of how mean this could be. You could send a message to a guy you hate from his wife's ex-boyfriend telling him how much he enjoyed her company the other night... you could send a message to your coworker from his boss telling him he's been fired and to clear out his desk...
I could see people's lives being ruined if they react to such a message in the heat of the moment.

???my phone is calling my phone???

Ok guys.....I can't be the only one this has happened to. For the last week I have been getting somewhat random calls and caller id shows its my number. There are times when I happens right around a phone call but the phone has had root for 6 months...multiple roms flashed and never an issue till now. Running crc1 with cyan 4.0.4 build...themed with community hero. This is the second post about this....does someone know what's happening or how to fix it...thanks
its called someone is spoofing you with a spoof app of some sort heres a website about what its about.
basically youre being pranked
Here's the website
I appeciate the insight but I have that app and as far as I am aware you can't call a number with the same number.....it won't allow it. So I'm pretty sure that's not it.
Umm i dont think you understand completely.
Ok ....now I know its the phone ....noticed a pattern...it seems to do it right after someone calls but only rings a couple of times. And I'm not sure what it is I don't understand.

Say Dave doesn't like Jay and wants to prank call him.
He uses SpoofApp or the equivilant service to call him.
To use this service all you need to do is enter the number you would like to call and the number that you would like to show up on the recievers callerID.
Jay recieves a call from the number that Dave put in.
It could be just about any number and the only way that I know of for sure to tell who it is that's calling you is TrapCall.
Hope that clears it up.
Ya I hear you on that and I have used it......I'm not stupid. This is a phone issue. The calls are comming after a voicemail is left. What could the problem be. I'm not trying to be a jerk but the obivious solution is not allways the right one. Could someone give me an idea.
I agree with you oneyoungjay I have that app to and you can't put the number to call and the number to display at the same time. It will not allow it. I use the app pretty often.
My iPhone used to do this to me on t-mobile a few months ago, just like voicemails sticking, i solved it by leaving myself a voicemail. (and its actually a carrier issue, i believe)
try changing voicemail client to phonefusion for example. If its a carrier issue that should bypass it if not sorry...
Thanks .....ill try that a let you know if it worked.

I'm not aware of any setting that will do that... have you tried putting your simcard in a different phone? If it does the same thing with a different phone, then it is definitely a service provider issue.
Edit: seems like the right section to me
