[Q] SMSC Issue w/ Dark Kinght ICS v4 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have a Bell Galaxy S I-9000 flashed with Dark Knight v4 that sometimes loses it's SMSC number on reboot. There's no real pattern with it and it appears to be completely random. Sometimes after a reboot I'll be able to send text messages and other times it will be stuck at "Sending..." and after checking my SMSC settings I'll notice the number is gone. Anyone know what the issues is or experience anything similar in the past? Thanks.

Tell The Dev to fix this or if your the only one facing the problem wipe and reflash your rom

smsc
you'll have to set the smsc number (sms message center)
from the dial make *#*#4636#*#* > Phone Information > SMSC (press refresh to see the number, just for your info) > replace the number > update.
the number is in PDU format (i'm from romania on orange)
also search google smsc pdu
sorry wrong
LE: maybe a wipe will do...
also i had the same problem on Dark knight 4, 5 and on CM9... my number right after flash was "00"

Speed Dial - Voicemail

Hi,
it seems, I am not able to edit the speed-dial #1. On #1 I have "VOICEMAIL 121" .. but this is of course not the reight number. When trying to edit I will forwarded to the security setting of the phone !?
Any ideas ?
regards
kuzco1
so you are saying you have went into the dialer, speed dial where it shows all your numbers stored in speed dial and tried to change it but wont let you? correct?
Or from the dialer screen Menu -> Options -> Click the Services tab in the Services tab choose Voice Mail and Text Messages the select Get Settings... buttons and you can change the voice mail number there.

No Name displayed when contact calls

When I recieve a incoming call or text message my phone does not recognize the number as the name stored in my "contacts.
For example if I have Bob's cell number stored under "Bob as his cell phone as "555-555-5555," when the call comes in it is displayed as simply, (555)555-5555.
I have tried adding a 1 to the number stored in the phonebook and this gets that same result.
However, I can go into the call log and then choose "save number to contact" and select the number and overwrite the number and once I do that the name is displayed as "Bob" in the call log. But when they call again, I get no name displayed and it was like I never added his number to the name.
I am running the new ATT ROM downloaded from HTC's website "Build date 5-06-2009."
This was not happening before I flashed the new ROM.
Called ATT...no idea...refered me to HTC...called HTC...had no idea...said to reflash.
Don't want to have to reload all my crap if possible.
I have even tried restoring my contacts again from Sprite....no change.
Wrong "Regional Settings"?
Try changing your "Regional Settings" in system settings. I had mine set to "English (United States)", which wrongly displayed my incoming calls. Setting this to "English (United Kingdom)" solved my problem.
Hope this helps
I had the same problem. But what I do is that when ever someone calls me i choose same number to existing contact and you pick the right contact and then you press save and it will ask you if you would like to update the number and just choose "yes" and now when they call it should say the name. I dont know why but it keept doing this after i reflashed.

[Q] Problem when received SMS (sender number)

I just injected Indonesia Telkom Provider number into my HTC Hero CDMA (previously Sprint)
All setup setup seems are correct, I can make and receive call and also send and receive SMS.
The problem are when received SMS, on the sender number, number "0" changed to character "D", for example 017760540 become D1776D54D.
I can't reply this sms directly before change the number to the correct number.
All problem happened with all type of ROM (Original or Custom).

[Q] Cannot send SMS

Hi,
recently I flashed my SGS with JM8 / Tatyuma. Since then the device fails to send SMS. The GUI just says "failed".
What can I do?

If you've got all your APN settings right, and can receive SMS but not send, you may have to put in your SMSC number.
Looks like I can't post links yet, so google "smsc numbers" and you'll see some results where your country/carrier should be listed.
Hi,
sry for not telling but I already tried that. I dial *#*#4636#*#* and type 00491722270222 in the SMSC field. There are two buttons: Update and Refresh. Update seems to do nothing, Refresh removes the number from the field.
Any suggestions?

You need to be entering SMSC number in Octal-Hexadecimal format with special leading numbers, to tell android which format is that.
Basically go to (damn xda do not allow me to post links, as I am new user). DO search in google on "Online PDU Encoder and Decoder" - go to first link.
At the bottom, there is a converter for sms message to pdu format. Do the following, remove everything, except you smsc number (with plus sign) convert to pdu. Copy first 16 numbers from pdu. And enter them in your android SMSC update field. Click update - enjoy. It should be working.
Hi,
thank you very much for that advice! My SMS is working again

Hi I tried this and entered 07916174080001F6 into the SMSC field and hit update.
I then refreshed and the phone shows me it recorded 0791617408000166
I tried this 3 times, everytime it refuses to take alphabets as part of its SMSC number.
I even tried entering abcd -- it became 1234 when I refreshed.
What's wrong?

Call History full of 'unknown' blank numbers

I've been using the One for a few months, it's running the latest, unmodified OS.
Yesterday I noticed the call history is full of 'Unknown' blank numbers. To clarify - I take a call, when I finish the call enters the history as a blank entry, with name 'Unknown, and NO NUMBER showing for the call.
Looking through the list, it's happened to most incoming calls.
It never used to do this until yesterday.
I'm wondering what's changed! Why would it start to do this?
Any help appreciated!

which android version you are having ?? if it is 4.4.2 u will not face this Unknown ID issue.
only the 4.4.3 update made issues for caller ID which doesn't recognize the country code of that related country service provider. when you remove the country code it will show the correct ID but then the Viber/Whatsapp/Line will not recognize the number without the Complete phone number.
you can by pass this by going the Gmail > Settings > Phone numbers: Default country code: "put a country you will never visit"

Thanks for the responses guys - I actauly fixed this yesterday, but thinking what it was I recently installed when this started... and uninstalling it! It was the Klick app (Cheap eBay version of the 'Pressy' Button!)
Uninstalled it and now it behaves fine.
BTW The Klick button is sort of OK, you can set it to launch an app, ie the camera, but intuitively then you expect it to also operate the camera, which it doesn't. Plus setting it to operate even when the screen is locked (as you would probably want, for instant-access) of course means I was always finding I'd knocked it.
So a good idea, but not really that functional. plus caused a glitch with my phone history!
Also HTC headset fix app causes it in 4.4.3 - it adds empty number socdouble click doesn't recall on headphones!
