SMS Messages:

Anyone else have a problem where they send a message to someone and then the person you sent it to, end up receiving 2 instead? It seems to be all the time. Any ideas? Im with O2 in the UK. Also the annoying LED's on the unit. Sometimes when i do the reg fix it works fine, other times after a h/reset and reg fix applied, the light starts again about 10 mins later, and it seems impossible to stop it......
Help guys
XDA IIs
CE 1.40
Radio 1.12
Ex: 1.40 cooked

Ignore this one, turns out after a little research, if you use SPB Pocket plus close button feature, you have to make an exception for tmail.exe

heres a fix
When an sms is compsed there is an option in the sms settings that will allow you to tick “Use Unicode when necessary” if this option is ticked what will happen either your sms will be sent twice
(for the people who really want know what Unicode is, its software that allows software to see foreign charcthers, such as chines Koren. More info at http://www.unicode.org/)
So just untick the option will resolve the problem. When this option is ticked instead of your charcherts size being the 160 it is dropped to 70 charcheres so as soon as you go over the 70 mark its 2 sms.
To fix this you go from the front of your device
Click on start, then down to messaging.
Tap on accounts in the tab below and then select accounts from the list.
Now tap on tex messages
Now just click Unicode off.
AND there we have it.

Actually, Using the option Unicode when necessary uses Unicode formatting ONLY when a Unicode character is found in the message.
I always put this option on, and when my message contains any Unicode character, it converts the whole message into Unicode (hence the message size will be a multiples of 70 chars and not 160). But if your message is pure ANSI characters (all English) then it will be send as it without using Unicode encoding (160 chars).

RZZKT slaam walicum, bud or just plain hello,
i see your point, only thing is here in the UK when we send an sms it goes through spefic sms centre's on the mobile networks then gets routed through various sms gateways etc etc what happens on the Vodafone network and on orange is when you compose a sms say just right TEST if the unicode option is ticked on then the sms when routed will be sent 2ice, on vodafone iv tracked the process for the sms and we can see whats called sms refernce number and if a phone is sending multipull sms the refernce number will be the same, but from my device(spv m2000-unlocked and office qteck9090) the sms refernce number stays the same so the networjk does not belive its a multipull sms but instead it treats it as the device is sending 2 seperate sms's--even when the tracking info time tag shows id time frame i.e sms 1 19:00:16secs sms 2 19:00:16secs.
As i work for Vodafone i can track the sms traffic on our system but its the same situation with the orange network when i have my orange sim in the spv.
Just the way our networks work im afraid. As for the above poor chapy, its going to either be what we are discussing or issue issue with his device(which may be more probable orrrrrrr issue with o2)
never mind wish him all the best!

N2h, wa'alaykom assalam
Ohh i see! thats why its not happening here with me.
We have something called SMS Center, we just put this center's number in the SMS message settings.
Its nice to work in Vodafone... guess you have unlimited phone calls 8)
Lucky you :wink:

SMS Problem with Korean unit

I bought my Galaxy S the other day:
Model # SHW-M110S
It's a Korean Anycall original unit, it's open-line...I had no problems with calling and receiving calls and receiving SMS...but then i wasn't able to send messages, a "invalid sender" error appears everytime i try to send sms. Then I found a way how to send, it was Messages>compose messsage>left main key>Change sender...then put my number as "FROM" to the message before sending. I have to do this everytime I send SMS which is a hassle, i was wondering why do i have to this all the time? Isn't it already automatic that sending messages with the default number of my Sim Card? And another thing, I can only send up to 80 bytes of text, after that, it automatically changes to a MMS....is it really that short? Or can I extend the text messaging without automatically making it to an MMS messsage like any other phones....Please help me with this technical thing...it would be a great help...ThaNX!

Have you tried the app handcent from the market? It might be helpful.

[Q] sending text messages (SMS) in Russian ....

Hello,
I'll start with the tech specs.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S i9000
Android 2.2 (Froyo)
Russian language support for the Android OS
I have tried several keyboards with cyrillic / Russian. All of the text appears perfectly in my screen.
However when I want to send a text message in Russian, the system will tell me that the text might be corrupted on the recipient device.
It then offers me a dialog box to change input to automatic formatting, where I can choose 'send' (and it will change the formatting, basically sending only a bunch of '?') or 'cancel' and it won't send.
I have gone through all sorts of settings, but I can't find anything to send a message without the phone complaining.
Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this?
(By the way, I had the same problem with Android 2.1 (Eclair))

Did you change the settings in the SMS stock app? You should chose "Automatic" there in the first place. Otherwise you'll send a bunch of "?" just you said.
Try another SMS app. t. ex. chompSMS or Handcent SMS.
What keyboard are you using? Try Smart Keyboard, you can find it at 4pda.
I'm using by myself russian Swype for now, but I've been testing both Smart Keyboard and SlideIT. Both have been working just fine. And my mesages came through without any trouble.
Good luck
Удачи!

Sms Problem In LG optimus 2x Su660

hi guys! i have a korean optimus 2x phone (codename SU660). in Korean each sms has length of 80 symbols (may be they use unicode for encoding Korean text). so when i send text messages in English, even when using 3rd party apps like Go SMS or Handcent my sms is limited at 80 symbols. if i compose a longer one, the reciever will only recieve the first 80 symbols of the message. i only can send a 160-symbol message which will cost me double the fee. i tried deleting the stock messaging app by titannium backup but Go SMS still can send sms. so i think there is something in charge of sending messages in android. do u knows what it is? can i modify it or replace with another one from other rom?

As no one answered your post in 2 days I jump in
There are modded mms.apks floating around which increase the limit to 160.
For example this one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1591989
and here for more versions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797341
If you have questions about them please ask them in thr respective threads, I never used a modded mms.apk, I just read about it some time ago.

problem fixed?

[Q] Threaded view sms problem

Hey, I m from Bangladesh having problem with 160 character sms. As all we know optimus 2x su660 wont give you to send 160 word.
I follow the technique which was http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797341 here.
It gives me to write 160 words or more. Now I have some problems. Hope someone will solve it.
1) when i write a sms having 100 characters or 140(more than 80 characters but not more than 160). It will send upto 91 characters. Receiver will not receive after 91 characters.
2) But when I write more than 160 characters (that means two msg), It will send full sms. Receiver will get the full sms.
I have also tried all the others sms software available in google play (Go sms pro, pansi, handcent). But the problem is exactly same.
Note: dont tell me that its my mobile operators fault. Because I try with another set. All thing is right.
Hope someone will help me.
Thanks

Dont have a solution to anyone? Developers help me
