How to know SMS-Center of received text message

I need to know through which SMS Center a text message was sent.
Anybody knows if this information is stored in the PIM database ?
I've looked through it to no avail.
Is this info discarded by the messaging application ?
Thanks.

The messaging center number is usually auto configured on the phone by the SIM card.. if you need yours google it "network name message center number"

Hi,
in other phones, you can check through which message center a text message (in your inbox) has been sent.
I know how to check/change the message center i am using.
I want to know how to check throuch which message center (SMS-C) the message I receive was sent.
EDIT: Actually, I don't know how to change message center for my messages, but I am not interested in that.

Any ideas about this ?

Text messaging does not work

Hello!
My problem is I cannot send any SMS message (it actually is moved to the sent folder, but the other phone does not receive it), as well as I cannot receive any SMS message (the phone lights-up when I sent a SMS to it but nothing more happens), EDIT: though on the sender's phone I get a delivered report.
Before you ask - no, the text messaging service number in phone options is not correct. The field is empty and whatever I do write there does not get saved. I can modify the voice mail number, area code and all and save it, but the text messaging service field keeps being empty (it is set correctly when trying on my other phone).
Calls do work.
As I believe the only problem is the number not present, is there any other way I could store the text messaging service number in the phone? Like registry setting or similar... Or any other solution welcomed.
Thanks!
By the way, I'm running the WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.20282.19597 for Tornado with Neo Style English Version V1 by Karas, my operator is O2.
The radio version is 4.1.13.28_02.61.01, RIL version 2.002.

i had the same problem with the rose rom... it only helped to hard reset the device...
has somebody a fix for that? or what is the problem?

hard reset does not work for me, but it seems it is a problem in the rom, which cannot be workarounded...

Try another rom!!

[Q] Can't send SMS - "update error" in 4636 menu

Hello
Since "some time", I cannot send SMS text messages from my Nexus S with stock ICS 4.0.3 and also not with CyanogenMod 9 v4.0.3 Alfa 20p1. When I try to send a SMS to whatever number, it takes some time (round about 10 seconds) and then I see a red exclamation mark (!) and get a message in the status bar "Message not sent"
My provider (Sunrise in Switzerland) tells me, that they even haven't seen any signs of me trying to send a text message and told me, to make sure that the correct SMS service center (SMSC) number is entered.
As there's no way in ICS to "easily" enter the SMSC, I "dialed" *#*#4636#*#*, went to "Phone Information", scrolled down to SMSC and entered "+41765980000" (without the ", of course *G*). I then pushed "Update", BUT…
BUT then, the field where I entered the number: update error
When I insert this SIM card in a simple, "ancient", non-smartphone Nokia mobile phone, I see that this number is stored on the SIM card and I can send SMS just fine.
Well………
What to do to be able to send SMS text messages again?
Dunno if it's important, but I can receive text messages just fine.
Thanks,
Alexander

I had this same problem last week, and had to encode the SMSC number to get it to work.
I followed the recommendations at http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-926771.html and got it working.

what Baldar538 said!
I used that same thread posted above the first time. It was not a fun thing, it was easier to just get my girlfriends phone, and copy hers since she has a nexus s to.

Balder538,
thanks to your heads up, I revisted that page and, more importantly, the "Online PDU Encoder and Decoder" listed there and got it to work.
The encoder encoded my "+41765980000" to "07911467950800F0110000910000AA00". Entering 07911467950800F0 worked then just fine.
I can now send SMS again - yeah!
Thanks again,
Alexander

Thanks to Baldar538 for the link to the answer to my problem as well.
For those of you on Koodo, the SMSC phone number for Koodo is 16475800172. But it has to be encoded before it can be put into the SMSC field in the 4636 menu.
After it is encoded, only the first 16 characters are used from the encoded string.
Sooo... If you want to turn the SMS back on for your Koodo phone, put the following numbers in the SMSC field and press the "Update" button.
07916174850071F2
Worked for me.

[Q] "Short Message Center" settings preventing picture messages?

After several hours of troubleshooting and a hard reset, I've been told that the reason I am unable to SEND picture messages is due to a incorrectly configured "Short Message Center" number. All other functions (make/recieve phone calls, send/recieve text messages, browsing the internet, and recieving picture messages) work fine.
I have verified the APN settings are correct, and supposedly everything looks good on the carrier's end but I'm still not able to send picture messages. The carrier (Solavei, an inept T-Mobile reseller), expected this to be displayed after entering a code into the dialer app, but instead displayed on the most recently called number. (The code was *#*#4636#*#* which did not work). Any ideas on how to set this on the Motorola Atrix 2?
Android Version 4.0.4
Sys Ver 67.21.125.MB865.ATT.en.US

Forgot to mention that using another carrier's (Cellular One) SIM card on this unlocked phone with the correct APN settings is able to succesfully send/recieve picture messages on this phone, and that I am able to send/rec picture messages when using my SIM in another phone.

Update: I am able to send MMS messages using a 3rd-party app (Go SMS Pro), with a custom-set MMSC, which matches the MMSC in the APN settings. Does anyone know how this works?
Also, does anyone know if the ROM I used when flashing my phone could have known issues with particular MMI codes, (as apparently suggested HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737594)?

Making calls, receiving MMS and contact list issues.

Hello!
I'm having a few "bugs" on my Moto G Global GSM running stock EU Retail software on top of AeroKernel and Gravity Box on it.
1. Making calls issue: it seems like my phone is not getting "mobile provider settings" regarding showing my number when placing a call. As a result, i can't call home phone numbers in my country - i can call mobile numbers any time, but if i want to call home number, i need to go to phone -> settings -> additional settings and wait for the settings to load. Only then can I call these numbers.
2. Receiving MMS: how can i enable auto-download MMS messages on stock messaging app? I mean the situation when my data is off, then it autoconnects when mms comes, then it disconnects. It is like this on custom roms, as far as I know, but i'd like to have it on stock software.
3. Contact list issue: my contacts are doubled. How can i solve this? All of my contacts are from my Gmail account only, no contacts on SIM or from storage. The weird thing is, when I open Contacts app, it shows my contacts as it should, but when i open Phone app and try to search for somebody, the entries are doubled. oh, okay, i fixed that already. my contacts on google account were all doubled or trippled - though i have no idea why!
So, these are issues I'm having that prevent me from enjoying my phone in 100% . I wish somebody can help me with these! I'd really appreciate that!
Thanks in advance,
Kumczak
