Guest cushy91 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 I just got my SF the other day and i unlocked (on O2 now) and put japanese jellyfish on it. A problem I'm having is that it can't send SMS messages. I can receive them but not send them. Calls etc also work as well. Cheers, Johnny.
Guest Phoenix Silver Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 this worked before flash the rom ?
Guest cushy91 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 this worked before flash the rom ? I'm not sure. I only made a few calls before flashing. Do you think it could be hardware fault? Surely if it can receive texts it can send them, no?
Guest Phoenix Silver Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 i suppose you have made a wipe data before flashing ?
Guest cushy91 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 i suppose you have made a wipe data before flashing ? I just followed the guide...it said that clockwork peforms a wipe then installs the ROM when the "Install firmware" option is chosen in Recovery Manager
Guest Phoenix Silver Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 perhaps you could try another rom (paul's or fibblesan) to see if this come from the rom just backup your system in clockwork before
Guest aradalien Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 i can almost guarantee you its the apn file in the rom try another i cant send mms messages from fl6 but pauls r7 works perfect the apn file in the rom is messed up for orange uk and even inputting your own apn does not work i was on the phone to orange for hours then found out it was the rom LOL.

You sure it's the APN. I thought SMS and MMS settings were separate. I've downloaded Paul's R7 and I'm going to test it now Edited January 31, 2011 by cushy91

I've downloaded Paul's R7 and I'm going to test it now Still can't send messages and I've changed the APN too. I'm not interested in getting MMS picture messaging working just standard texts. Is there something I'm missing? 1. Download the ROM 2. Open Recovery Manager 3. Install Firmware 4. Let clockwork do its thing then reboot Should I be doing extra wipes or something? I'm really getting frustrated now as it's basically an expensive brick to me right now ;)
Guest aradalien Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 the roms with the old apn list just keep saying sending pauls works thats for sure.
Guest aradalien Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) ok go in the apn list and click on the menu and reset to default see if that helps. btw are u sure u have credit ? Edited January 31, 2011 by aradalien
Guest cushy91 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 the roms with the old apn list just keep saying sending pauls works thats for sure. All it says for me is "Sending..." for around 10 seconds then I get a "Message not sent" notification
Guest cushy91 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 ok go in the apn list and click on the menu and reset to default see if that helps. btw are u sure u have credit ? Reset defaults, have credit, yet still no joy
Guest boss126 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 Reset defaults, have credit, yet still no joy Download handcent from the market and try that.
Guest cushy91 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 Download handcent from the market and try that. Same thing with handcent
