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...

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,
I own an unbranded HTC P3300 which I use with my T-Mobile SIM-Card (Germany).
Now T-Mobile offered an eMail-Flatrate which I wanted to use. Alas, the configuration is only aviable within a configuration sms. This SMS doesn't work for me
It consists of two SMS. The first one informs you that you will get an configuration sms. The next SMS is "eaten" by my phone
Has anyone any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanx in advance
Heiko
I Recently took ownership of the O2 Orbit aka the Artemis.
This is a continuation of an existing contract and instructions are to place existing sim into phone and switch on whereby it will I assume perform the necessary configuration. When I done this I received a txt message from O2 informing me of the following:
O2: Sorry your handset does not support automatic settings. Please call our care team on 100 for further assistance.
So as the msg goes I called the care team. They then asked the Orbit team who informed them that the handset should be returned, as it is faulty. They will arrange the swap. Phone appeared to function okay but who am I to question why. Phone swapped and new phone up and running…I have received the same message again! Now the phone appears to be working okay so not sure what to do next. Has anyone encountered this type of error before? And if so does anyone have a solution/suggestion as to what this exactly means? Thanks JD76.
I get this Error Message every time i order a configuration SMS for my device. I dont know if you know, but on the O2 Website, you can request a text message which is supposed to setup your device for different Services, e.g. MMS or Wap...
Well everytime i ordered such an SMS, my device would not get configured, reporting the Error "Your device does not support automatic configuration" which is not that bad at all i think, because everything works just fine, without any limitations and the Settings you need for Wap or MMS or other stuff can also be found on the O2 Website and can then be set-up manually.
So if you do not feel like replacing your handset again, i would just leave it, i am not experiencing any problems (I should mention though, that i run a CID unlocked T-Mobile MDA Compact 3 with german O2 Windows Mobile 6 ROM) but i guess that makes no difference.
I had the same problem and was able to solve it by downloading this configuration .exe from HTC. Get the one that is regionally applicable to you...

Although it 'says' it is for the 3600, I used the German o2 setting without issue on my Orbit.
Hi, I wonder if you can help because I am lost and cannot find any information .
Got a T-Mobile MDA III from a German guy, changed the OS to the Dutch version for English. Everything is OK but cannot send or receive SMS. I have the correct settings from the phone options about the SMS server but it goes to MMS and try to connect through GPRS when I call for messaging and no other choice (beside e-mail).
I thought it was 2 different things. My SIM card is good and SMS works with another GSM phone.
Am I missing something? Can you help?
Thks
I know there are a couple of threads about this already but mine is a little different.
I got O2 XDA Orbit from ebay - put in my VodafoneUK sim card and everything works fine, MMS, GPRS, Internet and even GPS (don't know if the last one matters) - I haven't upgraded or changed any software or anything but my SMS text messages won't work - they sit in outbox for a minute or so then I get the error msg "your text message cannot be sent".
Ant help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Silly question but does the actual phone work - ie can you call out OK?
Can you receive messages?
My Orbit will receive OK but not always send in a poor signal area.
Stew,
Sorted It!!!!
To your answer sloss yes everything else works but I know what it is now.
I tried Start>Settings>Phone>Services...Voicemail and Text Messaging...select and then Get Settings........BUT it actually receives the WRONG yes the WRONG message centre number from the network.
Got a friends UK Vodafone phone and just copied his message centre number and Viola it worked fine, I'm so happy I could cry!!
Just thought this might help some others who may be having this problem.
