My nokia 5230 wont send texts, tho i can recieve txts and make/recieve calls, i want this problem sorted as im a well known texter lol. can ya help me plz.?

Go to the settings click on the profile icon and then click on general and activate it

In order to be able to send text sms's you are required to complete the settings in your sms options. You shall call the customer care and ask them for providing you the settings. Once they will give you the gateway i.e. one phone number you can enter that number in your sms settings options and you will be able to send text messages.

GO TO MESSAGES SETTINGS ,AND THEN TEXT MESSAGES,AND THEN MESSAGE SENT VIA-3 OPTIONS R AVAILABLE SELECT(TEXT)

You may have accidently deleted the Message center number. Go to --> Mssg settings --> text messages --> Service center number. In case you do not recall your message center number, call your service provider. Hope this helps.

lol

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE AN ORANGE SIM AND A TESCO MOBILE SIM BUT CANT CALL OR SEND TXTS I CAN RECIVE TXTS AND CALLS
EEEP HELP

check the "send message via" number
call your service provider to confirm you have the correct number in the box

u need to set the messege centre number correctly contact ur operator helpline or try deleting the messages in your outbox and saved items.

On every phone there are settings that can stop you sending texts. However all phones should still receive texts even if all the settings were changed. As the text message is directed to you mobile number you should still be receiving?
When you compose your text and select contact does the phone move them to the out/sent box?
Settings to check for sending are your 'message centre number' (your network provider can supply and they are normally different for pay monthly and pay & go) 'Message sent as' should be 'text' (not fax or email etc).
Text problems are common where people change or delete digits from the message centre number by mistake.
If you cannot receive texts i would recommend speaking to your provider for help as it may be your account details at their end? (beyond your control). Hope that helps?

Hi,
I think that there is s problem with the phone's firmware. You should update/reflash your phone's firmware with NSU (Nokia Software Updater). Good luck!
