Hi Everyone,
Why are O2 customer services so stupid. I have a O2 sim card in my unbranded HTC P3300 so I have no settings pre installed. Everytime I ring O2 to ask them for the settings so i can manually input them they send me an email telling me to go Start > Programs > O2 operator settings. Ive told them time and time again that it is not an O2 orbit but its the same phone and doesnt have that option but they just cant seem to get it.
Can someone with an O2-UK Orbit read out the settings for MMS/GPRS/GSM and post them up so I can manually input them into my P3300 please.
Thanks

There you go.
thanks for that. Ever thought of working for O2. they need someone with knowledge.
Hi!
I'm subscribed to weather forecast that comes in 3 text (SMS) messages every evening @ 10 PM.
When I swiched from wizzard to hermes, I noticed, that I got only one or two messages instead of 3 every night. I thought there has to be a problem with the device, so I changed it.
== BUT==
Now I have a brand new Hermes - and with the same problem!!! It just looses SMS messages. Several people have been complaining to me that they sent me SMS which I did not receive.
What would be the problem?
the first hermes ran WM6 black 3.01 with 1.41 radio and the second one runs WM6 black dymond with 1.40 radio. The only common thing is that both devices were treated with Oli's HardSPL 7.
p.s. when I put my SIM card into a nokia, I receive all 3 messages as normal.
PLEASE HELP!!!
I dunno if this will help at all but...
...try going into start>settings>phone>services(tab)
click on 'voice mail and messages' then tap the 'get settings' button.
It should get the SMS and voicemail numbers from the network.
Might help...but its a long shot.

That actually helped me in the past. For some odd reason my SMS's would get stuck in the outbox and not send, so upon advice like above, I clicked "get settings", and all was well. It hasn't happened in a long while, but it was solved by doing that.
it actually may be your sim card similar thing happened to me got a new sim card fixed it.
I had a very similar problem with normal ssmes not coming thru and smses being held in the outbox. The problem started when I changed to an AKU3 Rom. The old South African 1.35 Rom worked perfectly but as soon as I changed to their new AKU3 the sms problem started. I had also upgraded my Radio to the 1.41 Rom.
How I solved the problem was I got my sim card replaced (which I found didn't solve the problem). I then only installed the apps I really needed and didn't upgrade the Radio.
For the past 2 weeks I haven't had any problems, so maybe try hard reset your phone, and start by only running it as standard and see what happens, also maybe try downgrade your radio.
Ensure the you have a message centre assigned in the phone settings. If you cannot get it automatically, call your operator and enter it manually.
Hi rebel I have noticed the same problem...but it is regarding the SMS and MMS...so could be some operator incompatibility or sth...will try the"get operator settings" thing...but I think this won`t solve our problem, cause not receiving all SMS/MMS it is a thing...but not receiving just some SMS/MMS is another problem...

Hello to all!
I tried "get operator settings" and will report if there will be any progress. But I doubt, because if settings were wrong, than I wouldn't receive any text messages. But I can receive SMS, just not all of them.
It just makes me crazy.
@PC78: we're both using same network (Mobitel Slovenia). If you had exactly the same problem, than I guess it has to be some incompatibility between hermes and operator? I will contact them and ask for explanation.
In the meantime, I will flash my hermes to some old ROM with stoneaged Radio (1.03 or something). Let's see what happens ...
Greetings,
Robert
I have the same problem, could it be the HardSPL?
gh0st, where are you from? Till now, only users of Mobitel Slovenia reported this problem.
I don't know if it's hard SPL. But it's possible. Can it be removed from the device? I'm willing to try. But I need some instructions on how to remove it and bring the device back to the "factory" state.
regards,
Robert
...Hard-SPL?...what have the Hard-SPL to do with SMS/MMS?...I think it could be only an OS/Radio ROM problem or operator incompatibility but not Hard-SPL...
Regards,
Primoz
same problem here...
delayed texts and no sms recieved...
i found out that even i have signal on my cel, im out of coverage when contacted.. but this is intermittent
there are times its ok.. then not.. then ok..
this happens only when i upgraded my dopod 838 pro
thats why i ask experts here on other thread how can i roll back the original
setting of my cel.. specially the radio..
im from asia region... can anybody help me too..
i upgraded to 1.40 radio which i think suited only for cingular network or other else...
Hard spl olipro 2.10 etc...
I had problems with SMS wneh using Black 3.0, using LVSW (latest) now and have no problems.
I suggest you try using one of the LVSW roms instead of Black - try Elf's or Sleuth's variants as they are the most complete.
Also, the most popular shipping "new" radio out there is 1.38.00.10. Try that radio as well.
Hello guys,
A bad news, really.
It's confirmed: Hermes has some serious compatibility issues with certain mobile operators (networks).
I contacted a company that imports and repairs HTC devices in Slovenia. Technician told me that they are aware of the problem and are solving this "missing SMS" issue together with carrier (Mobitel) and manufacturer (HTC).
They didn't yet solve it, though.
This technician also told me that this problem is ROM-independent, so it does not matter if I'm using june 2006 stoneaged ROM with 1.03 radio or newest cooked WM6.
Greetings,
Robert
go into start >> settings >>> phone >>>services >>> click on voice mail & text messages and click on get settings
it will show you your settings for text message service center. Make sure there is a "+" sign before the number. for example + 1 (312) 314-9810 >>> this number is for cingular message center anyways "+" sign should solve the problem
cheers
thesame problems with sending sms or replaying and reciving.
even on orginal Era's ROM
Sometimes everything is perfect but when I tap replay, sms stucks in outbox.
Or sometimes when just wanted to write new sms.
Only SR helps.
my operator: Poland - Era gsm
Thanks for the replay Rebel...so my concern was [email protected] incompatibility problems...doooh...

I have had my hermes for only 1 week on T-mobile uk PAYG. Everthing works cool, but I have had a couple of calls from people why didnt you respond to "x" text message. they just did not ever come through at my end.
Guess this is the price to pay for having everything bar the kitchen sink in your pocket.
I can comfirm that I had this problem on Black Dymond (3.5) with certain type of sms.
with elf 2.1 crackberry all works well.
So it Is rom dependant.

p.s radio 1.40
Hi All,
I have a UK O2 XDA Orbit with an O2 Sim...
For some reason I don't seem to be able to receive MMS messages from Virgin on it.... The GPRS kicks in and it looks like its downloading and then stops.... within a couple of days I get a message to say it couldn't be downloaded and do I want to reject it.....
MMS from other mobile companies seem to get to me fine.... this is the first time I've had this problem...
I have tried sending to an O2 X2i and gets there no problem.... so I'm guessing its my phone... also texts from Virgin get through fine...
Anyone had anything similar..
Many Thanks in advance
Gaz
Hi all, just a bump really..... maybe try to rephrase slightly
Has anybody received MMS messages from a Virgin mobile on a O2 equiped XDA orbit successfully.
This could be down to the settings on the virgin phone, but this is probably unlikely as we can succesfully send MMS to another O2 phone...
Many thanks.
Gaz
I have the same problem using Vodafone.... Have changed GPRS settings, and it connects and LOOKS like it's transferring, however it doesnt actually send...

I have flashed my SPV M5000 with the latest Orange ROM, version 1.30.90.WWE on WM5. Don't know if it was missing before but now that I wanted to use MMS, I find that the option is missing in the accounts options. I do have an option to configure MMS and I can set a modem for Orange MMS, but if I try to switch from TEXT or OUTLOOK to MMS, the MMS option is just not there. Suspecting a registry problem I looked through the registry but cannot see anything obvious, although I am no expert on the M5000 registry. Can anyone please help me or give me the correct registry settings I should be looking for? Everything else works fine including email and Wi-Fi, although the finding the locations for the settings is not very friendly. Orange so fare have been useless - they confirm all my GPRS & MMS settings are correct amd also sent a SIM update to make sure they were. I am now waiting for Orange technical to come back to me, but I think you guys probably know more. Soft and hard resets do not make the MMS option appear. Richard B.
No MMS on Orange SPV M5000 resolved.
O.K. - after a lot of discussion with non-technical types belonging to Orange who tried to talk about technical issues in a three way conversation between I suspect India, Darlington and N.Wales and eventually being allowed to talk directly to their real engineers, I was told that this issue had been seen several times and that they did not really know why it happened as it happened intermitently. Having given up on Orange's extremely poor customer service, I gave the M5000 one last chance and burned the ROM for the 4th time. This time instead of using my main PC, I used my laptop and ensured that the USB cable was direct, also stopping anti-virus and all background programs except for the O.S. BINGO! The MMS appeared after hard reset. Why did I bother ringing Orange in the first place?
This has been breached a few times on forum, but havent as yet seen an answer....
On O2 all my recieved picture messages get resized incredibly small!! In turn i cannot, irrespective of settings, send MMS messages!!!
Have any other Rhodium users on [email protected] (contract) managed to rectify this issue???
O2 help have been zero help- not their phone, dont do the phone and dont care effectively.

I'm not sure about your issues of not being able to send MMS - the automatic settings worked for me.
Receving MMS is different, and I had to fool o2 into thinking I was using a Nokia N95. The o2 network doesn't recognise the Touch Pro 2, so scales the size of the pics to a default (i.e. tiny) size that it is sure will work.
