Phone Will Not Send Text Help

donnac2558

I have a Sagem my521x which has suddenly stopped sending texts. I can phone out, receive calls and texts no problems.

But if I tried to text anyone in my phonebook sim or phone I get Text Stopped , Resume? I hit resume and it just stops again and again.

Also up beside the GRPS there a strange flashing symbol, its red and looks like the old film cartridges you put in cameras. Now it appeared last year and then just disappeared again after a while, but it did not stop me sending texts then.

Have you got a full inbox/sentbox? It could be just memory issue, if you have too many old texts stored, try deleting a few?

So you never mentioned where you said you had soft reset the handset by re-powering the handset.
Also the red symbol could mean something too, I have never really experienced a sagem handset , but I am confident the meaning of the symbol is in the manual.

The symbol will probably be that you've got a voicemail.

Are you sure you've got credit and you've got signal?

Okay,

Never save Text messages, delete as I go.

The GPRS, in the manual says it should be Black,Grey or Red. Mine has always been a blue with a white outline.:eek: Mentions a symbol saying it flashes when logging on to a GPRS, and stops flashing when it has connected. But the icon/symbol is normally not there anyway.

The messages which would not send where still in my Out Box. I deleted them.

Tried texting message to friend and get the same thing

0/1 Sending Stopped. Then asks Resume or Cancel

Voice Mail is empty.

Yes, I have signal phoned person to say Happy Birthday after text would not go.

I have taken the battery out a few times for a few moments. Turn back on and still the same.

Oh, yes there is money on the phone.

This is driving me nuts!!!!

Thank you for the help so far.

Check in your settings that your message centre number is still there and correct.

Also, I would suggest a hard reset and manual roam - take the battery and SIM out of the phone for a few minutes. Pop back together and go to your network settings. You'll be set at the moment to automatically connect to you network but change this to manual and select a network you AREN'T on. You won't be able to connect to this. Then reselect your own network. Sometimes if you've had no signal or there's a problem with a local cell-site, this helps just reconnect you properly.
