I am running windows mobile 5.0 on a HTC - Cingular branded 8125. I am using the ATT Go Phone network and am subscribed for unlimited text messaging. Every time a text message is sent or received I get a network notification that my account has been billed $0.00. It requires that the user then tap OK before another text message can be sent or received.
I have written a program that allows me to send and receive SMS messages through my computer using the handset as the gateway. The problem is after every message is sent or received this network notification pops up and it blocks my ability to execute any more SMS instructions until I tap OK. Furthermore, any SMS messages that are sent to the phone while the network message is displayed are never registered/received by the handset.
I am looking for either a registry key or some other means to disable network related messaging to get around this issue. Any suggestions?

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.

How to Change the Message Center Number. Stock O.E.M.
Step-1: Call up customer care and ask them to correct your message center number. You now have to manually edit it.
Step-2: Open the SMS application in your smartphone and click on the option of Menu then navigate to Settings.
Step-3: Scroll down and choose the option of ‘Message Centre’.
Step-4: Now you will be provided with the option to edit the message centre number. Modify it to the correct value and click on the Ok button.
Step-5: Select the option of Delivery Reports as On and send a message or two to confirm whether they are received at the recipient’s end. In case you are still unable to send messages, then restore back your previous default message settings
NOTE: not listed in menu on your Rom
WARNING DIDNT WORK IN ALL CASES.4.4KK
Step-1 same ( HOW TO manually edit it. ) works with U.S. version Straight Talk ( not tested on others )
Step-2 open up an Dial this CODE *#*#info#*#*
Step-3 selected Phone information ( set by your service provider. ).
Step-4 scroll down to SMSC: press refresh located to the right. Data will appear.
Step-5 Enter the 14 digit number with f0 at the end { THIS IS NOT WORKING IN 4.4 KK}
Step-6 press update
Providing you have the APN Setting correct you should be able to send text now.
if anyone has trouble with this , notify me an I will look into or remove post.
Dear all,
I am having some big trouble with go sms pro private box. I have the paid version. I added from my contacts all the contacts that I want to be private. It happened that when some of those contacts text me the message and notification are correctly private, while for others they are received in the normal folder (and have a standard notification). I double checked and the contact name and number were correctly displayed on the list of private contacts but the text appears in the normal received text message list. Only one slight difference: the number saved in the contact list is always different from the number on the received text underneath the name, and the difference is related to the international american area code. I was not able to figure out exactly which is the problem but basically sometimes I receive messages with the right name but the number (lets say 999-999-9999) shows up as any of these three
999-999-9999
1999-999-9999
+1999-999-9999
So basically if I save my number as 999-999-9999 sometimes I dont get it on the private box and it shows up with the rite name and with 1999-999-9999 or +1999-999-9999. Very wierd. And things got more complicated: I did a trial with my roomie: if I save his number as 999-999-9999 his texts do not go into the private box, and they show up with his name and 1-999-999-9999 underneath it. If I save instead my roommate number in my contacts as +1999-999-9999, in that case his text shows correctly up in the private box but with NO NAME on it!! So I cant do this since I have no clue who is texting me and I have to search everytime who that text refers to. I am driving crazy. Nobody had experience with this?
Thanks
A.
if you are having this "error code 96" issue, you probably having hard time sending text messages (SMS)
so here is how to fix it
1. Go to your dialer and enter *#*#4636#*#* to enter Engineer/Service Mode.
2. go to "phone information"
3. scroll down and tap "turn on SMS over IMS" to turn on sms.
4. after that tap "refresh" button and after that tap "update" button to update the new settings..
done

It might be a software problem. Try to update the software with the help of instructions written in Motorola Moto G Manual- guideusermanual.com/product-name-moto-g-2nd-generation-manual&po=505893&lang=English . After updating software it starts working.
I can confirm that doesn't work on moto g4 athene.
Another solution
I had the same issue with my Moto G4 Play. The strange thing was that I could send SMS to everyone except for one specific contact. Clearing the messaging app's cache/data and then restarting my phone fixed the problem.

I have processed the above and then I get the following
SMSC: '+7', 145
TOGGLE DNS CHECK 0.0.0.0 not allowed
I called up Airtel (my service provider) they suggested to update the message centre number
then I again repeated the above steps 1 thru 3 and in the blank space against SMSC I manually entered '+919816091514', I got
SMSC: update error
TOGGLE DNS CHECK 0.0.0.0 not allowed
My service provider (Airtel) is unable to help me.
My home circle is Himachal Pradesh, and I am roaming into Uttarakhand (UP West)
this issue is from the last couple days
Please suggest

I tried everything listed on here to no avail. Finally, I put the country code in front of the number I was having an issue with texting. For example, USA is the number 1. So for the phone number I put 1(602)555-5555. This fixed the problem I was having. Hope this helps.
#SOLVED
If you are getting error code 96 or error code 38 while sending your SMS text from Android Smart phones, use following steps:
Step 1. *#*4636#*#* from Dialer panel
Step 2. Go to "phone information"
Step 3. Identify Message center number from your service provider and enter this number at "SMSC". Click update and then refresh.
Step 4. Send SMS.
Try this first
I had the same problem with one contact.
I found a posting elsewhere that said they solved their problem by going into Contacts and adding the "1" before the area code for the problem contact's phone number.
That worked for me.

Thank you for posting this! This was the same problem I had. Sending to only one of my contacts was giving me the error but I was able to send messages to others without problems. Clearing the messaging app cache and restarting the phone fixed it for me. I was not able to resend the stuck messages but new messages now send to the contact with no errors.
"error code 96" issue
I tried this method.
It worked
Same procedure was followed as explained in many threads
Step 1. *#*4636#*#* from Dialer panel
Step 2. Go to "phone information"
Step 3. Identify Message center number from your service provider and enter this number at "SMSC". Click update and then refresh.
While entering your smsc make sure you include a + (plus symbol)for country code .
This is the one which create many errors !
Just make sure you add a plus sign
Example : if you are in Karnataka using airtel sim
Smsc would be +919845086007
Then press update and exit
Try sending messages .
Additional info:
Just gone through all this and still couldn't get it to work.
I discovered the solution for me:
Didn't need to encode the SMSC number. Instead I needed to format it like this:
"+447458399008", 145
And then press update. The +447458399008 is the Virgin UK SMSC number and the 145 is apparently a port number.
This was what finally solved it.
Final fix - Highly recommended!
Hi guys,
I am new to XDA developers site and I have to explain my situation here. One month ago, I started getting an error 96 when trying to sent SMS from my Airtel sim (Phone is Moto G5 Plus). I tried calling the Airtel customer care and they said that my SMSC number is missing, that's why it's showing that error. They gave the SMSC number and I tried updating it from Messages app where I couldn't find the settings. Then I found one fix like we have take the sim out and put it in a old feature phone and set the number. After I set the number-tested sending SMS-succeeded. But the same error came when I put it in my G5 Plus.
Then I tried setting through *#*#4636#*#*. Update error came. Then I encoded the number and tried to update. Again same 'update error'. I suffered for one month without any features like UPI transfer or text messaging. Then I asked a Android developer engineer and he told that my sim can be damaged due to extreme heat. But I was confused why it doesn't affect the old Nokia phone.
Fix
Very simple. As he said my sim is damaged, I went to a Airtel retail center - ordered a duplicate sim and Hurray... It worked
This is my idea to all friends who are searching for a fix till now.
