Hey,

Does anyone own this phone? I just got one today and im having problems with texts not being sent, I'll send a text and it has the lil logo to show its sending then it makes a nice and I look where the the sent messages folder is and its written like this "Sent Messages(1)" and I have to search through to find one with a little x on it and resend it, but then I started sending more and now its got "Sent Messages(3)" but I cant find any with the little x, its annoying that the texts arent sending and I dont know how to fix it?

Any help? Please lol, sorry if any of that sounds confusing.

I have one of these phones and have only had the odd message that has not sent first time, retry gets it sent

I prefer to use the "Conversations" view for text messages, as it will straight away list the text as "Could not send" instead of showing the time it sent, just scroll up 1 and click the resend

Only issue i have had with my phone is the memory card will stop working in phone mode, but works fine when connecting in mass storage mode, repowering the phone fixes it for a while, otherwise its a pretty good phone

I figured it might be because I recently changed numbers?

Silly question but have to ask: have you tried turning the phone off and on again? If not, try that first.

If that doesn't work, go into Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Message Settings > Text Message > Service Centre number - is the Service Centre Numer "+64277439010"?

How long is it since you changed the number on to the SIM?
