Question about Motorola Mobility RAZR V3

1 Answer

Call fails. SMS failure to send. Status 254.

Hi there, this was a perfectly good phone and it refuses to call numbers, giving a "call failed" message. When sending a text, it fails and then tries to resend. But then intermitently sends it. It also sometimes goes to "Emergency Only" instead of displaying my phone company's name. Where would I even begin to look for repairs?

    Exactly the same problems. Get a new phone. I'm waiting for my contract to expire. I'll be staying away from Motorola for life.

    call failed signal when the pink H symbol appears instead of 3G symbol. This happens without us changing any settings. Will go back to 3G if I turn it off/on or wait and sometimes finds 3G again.

    My "send" icon when I try to send a message from my T603i starmobile phone is "greyed out" and when I try to make a call it only says "emergency calls" from my "dial" pad.

I had the same problem. All you need to do is reset the phone settings :) Then it's back to normal.

Nokia 1112 cannot send text messages but can receive

Hi,

You cannot send messages because the message centre number stored in your mobile may be wrong.


Please enter the correct message centre number. To get the correct message centre number please call your service provider and they will provide you the number.


Menu > Messaging >Options >Settings > Text message >Message centres


Thank You
