I cannot send any SMS using my Nokia 6288

When i woke up this morning, i tried to send an SMS to a friend, but i failed. i checked the Message setting in my Nokia 6288 and it's written there as "Pending". i tried again to send to another friends and i just can't. Even the message sending icon on the screen is not moving as usual. this pproblem used to happen to me once couple of months ago and i went to the repair outlet to have my phone system re-set. could u please tell me how to re-set my phone so that i can do it on my own every time this problem happen?

I can recieve text messages but when i try to send them it says message failed

It is because, you are not using the right SMS center no. Collect it from your service operator. Previously, you might be using other operator's sim. Now you just go to your messge settings and then go to text message, then select the right "message center number in use" and save it and start sending SMS again.

I can not send SMS message. SMS Message Center Number Error

I had the same problem and came to this site for help but the solutions didn't solve the problem of "cannot send text message" on htc touch hd. All service numbers correct. Went to START/SETTINGS/CONNECTIONS/ADVANCED NETWORK/SMS SERVICE then changed from "gprs" to "gprs preferred". Double checked and had reverted to "GSM" but sms now works - finally!!! Hope this helps.
