I cannot receive sms on my nokia 3310 but i can send sms, when complaint to the network operator they say there is no problem on their part. but i don't receive a single sms it gets erased automatically or the sms comes in 00000 or any weird characters. what should i do or what can i do???

There are no settings for receiving SMS from any networks but if you want to send SMS , then the MESSAGE CENTRE NUMBER must be entered into the menu in the message settings.
This number should be given to you by the service provider you are using. SO call up your provider-Vodacom- to confirm the message centre number.

at first you will check your msg centere number if it is correct then you will contact with your service provider

Hi there you should go to http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/product-support/nokia-3310 to get the support and instructions about solving the issue with your phone.

Hello,

The reason you cannot send a message is simply because you do not have the message center number of your phone.

The message center number depends on the mobile operators services you use.

You are to go to your 'menu' and 'select message',
Go to 'message settings',
Select 'text messages',
You will select 'message centers',
Select the 'home networks message center number' for instance Vodafone.

If you do not see the message center number,
Contact your mobile operators customer care for the center number,
Then you enter it in the space of the center number in the message settings.

Take care

call your network costmar care

try check you sms Centre.
if its correct,i think your phone is got a Virus.
the virus is tryn to send MMS.
N the operator is blocking your number to send sms for a while to save you Billing.
you better contact the operator.

Hi
there are only settings on the phone that will stop sending of messages, settings will not stop the receiving of messages (unless their mms - picture messages). I would suggest you speak to your network as it maybe something on your account at their end that needs fixing?
Incoming mesages (sms) are directed at your mobile number so the phone will receive them as you do a call.
Let us know how you get on?

The settings are all different, Internet, Wap etc... for MMS you need to call your service provider and ask them to send you the MMS settings, they are sent via a txt msg, when you receive them click Save or Install.
MMS doesn't work between all networks.

Hi.
I have had the same problem with my nokia N73. Please check your SMS center number if it corresponds with the network you using, and that it has the complete digits typed in. And also, try to communicate with your network oprator to get your SMS center number. Good luck
