[Q] Can't Send Messages, Can't Connect to Mobile Network? - HTC Desire S

Hello guys
I've rooted my phone for quite some time, and just today I decided to flash Cyanogenmod.
I am pleased with everything, except for two things: Messages and Mobile Network.
I've done my research regarding sending text messages. I accessed *#*#4636#*#*, then managed to set my SMSC number, which is the conversion of +62855000000. I converted it using an online converter and afterwards encode the first 16 digits, which are 07912658050000F0, but after i hit the update button, an "Update Error" shows up.
So I tried an alternative method, which is to set the SMSC number of my SIM using other phone, and then putting the SIM card back on my device. I checked whether or not it is set by going to *#*#4636#*#* SMSC section then hitting the "Refresh" button. It shows the "+62855000000". I then tried sending a message again, and oh boy, another failed attempt. So what should I do next? Any other alternative?
Another question, I can't seem to be able to connect to the mobile network.. meaning I can't access the internet from my phone without Wi-Fi. So what can I do?
Thanks in advanced!

[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.

Can't send or receive sms Straightalk

I was wondering if any of you with straighttalk reading this with an ATT Samsung infuse with the att sim could quickly hit *#*#4636#*#* then under phone settings scroll down and look for the smsc line and hit refresh and write down and post it for me.
I have been using straighttalk for the past couple of months and suddenly I don't have SMS anymore I can't send or receive. My phone does say message sent but no one is receiving it. I've tried deleting my messages, factory reset changing the smsc to the AT&T settings different messaging apps and I cant get it. Customer service says the problem is ony end but I'm not sure how it is from night to morning without any changes.

I can receive, but can't send, SMS after rooting and installing CM10.2

I have an HTC One S with T-Mobile USA which I've rooted and onto which I've installed CyanogenMod 10.2. Everything is working great except for one thing... I can receive text messages but cannot send them! I've scoured the forums for an answer and I've gone through this process:
- Dialed *#*#4636#*#*
- Went to SMSC option and pressed "Refresh" to display the SMSC number +12063130004
- Pressed Update
And then nothing happens...
I've read that once you click Update, it's supposed to take about ten minutes or so to reconnect the number with your service, but pressing Update just doesn't do anything. I even tried using the PDU number instead and that gave me "update error" in the blank space.
I'm at a loss here. What am I missing?
UPDATE: MMS works but SMS doesn't. This narrows things down slightly.
did you ever fix the problem because i have it now as well

SMS sending and receiving

Hi guys
Yesterday i flashed my OPO back to CM11S after trying CM12 nightly builds using this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/rom-xnph25r-cm11s-zip-t2820008.
Now I have the problem that I can send and receive text messages for 2 - 4 minutes when I turn on my phone but after that it keeps saying sending... I looked it up online and find something about disabling Google Voice but I don't have that here in Belgium. SO any idea on what i can try?
You could try resetting your SMSC number.
To do that:
1. Dial *#*#4636#*#*
2. Go to Phone information
3. Scroll down till you see SMSC.
4. Hit refresh
5. Enter the SMSC number and hit update
You can probably obtain your SMSC number at your carrier. If not just google it.

How can I update my SMSC when phone is detecting incorrect number?

My phone is displaying incorrect number on *#*4636#*#* menu. I think because of that reason I'm unable to update my SMSC number and hence not able to send messages.
Can anyone one suggest me what to do, as for using banking applications I need my sim to send messages.
I don't want to reset my phone as in case it didn't worked, a few apps I Have been using for transactions will not be able to use them as well.
I have tried everything, nothing worked maybe because the phone is detecting an incorrect number, I tried to put the sim on various other phones, all are detecting it with that incorrect number.
Please help, Thanks.
