SOURCE: cant send sms

There is message setting menu in main menu, and you have selected MMS. You have to change the setting to SMS and it will allow you to send text.

SOURCE: cant send sms

The settings are all different, Internet, Wap etc... for MMS you need to call your service provider and ask them to send you the MMS settings, they are sent via a txt msg, when you receive them click Save or Install.
MMS doesn't work between all networks.

SOURCE: mms settings

this is for danzljams..... I have P1i configured with T-Mobile in the USA.... They have details of this phone in their database.... if you call T-mobile they will text you the settings for MMS, WAP, T-zones, etc, etc... when you open the text the phone will install the settings automatically and you will be up and running.

SOURCE: my sony ericsson p1i cannot send sms...sms send failed

take out your battery, sim and memory stick.. then turn it off for 5 minutes, then turn in on without inserting the memory stick. after that try sending sms again, if it delivered,then try it with memory stick. if u can send sms,then its ok..but if cant then your memory sticks got a problem.my suggestion is to format the memory stick..

SOURCE: Sony Ericsson W995 Orange network three questions:

I had this same problem. I only got the phone yesterday from Orange. I phoned them and updates didn't work so they're sending me a new handset. They said that sometimes there are items missing from the menus. You should phone Orange, I've always found them to be extremely pleasant and helpful. In fact, I'd rate them for the top customer care I've ever known.

Testimonial: "Thanks for advice will be phoning them today, a bit of a nuisance to have a new handset sent though!!"

I'm using Nokia 2700 Classic. I've a problem with

this is not really a problem but understanding should be clear:
Multimedia Messaging Service(MMS)

MMS is a descendant of SMS (Short Messaging Service). MMS extends text messaging to include longer text, graphics, photos, audio clips, video clips, or any combination of the above, within certain size limits.

MMS is frequently used to send photos and videos from camera phones to other MMS phones or email accounts. Most camera phones have MMS, but many non-camera phones have it as well.

if it has a photo, video or audio it will automatically be categorize as MMS
While SMS stands for short message service. SMS is also often referred to as texting, sending text messages or text messaging. The service allows for short text messages to be sent from one cell phone to another cell phone or from the Web to another cell phone. purely text:

Unable to send sms from Sony Ericsson Sation. I am able to send MMS, receive SMS, but when I try to send sms, it goes and sits in outbox and resets time resent @ so and so time...

Hi,



You cannot send messages because the message centre number stored in your mobile may be wrong.


Please enter the correct message centre number. To get the correct message centre number please call your service provider and they will provide you the number.


Thank You

New sony ericsson c510 only seems to send messages as MMS, and defaults to this function automatically. How do i send messages as SMS and ensure it defaults to SMS for future?

When writing sms make sure you not scrolling to the bottom (the bottom line switches sms to mms.) Also in Settings-Messages check TEXT MESSAGES - and see options.

KA08 MMS not working

if you go on the sony ericsson site and get the mms settings for a k770i then sony ericsson will send you the settings, i have ka08 and this worked for me. after you install the settings remove the battery and the sim card, wait a couple of minutes and then reinsert them. turn your phone back on and then send yourself a picture and this should work
