I cant seend text messages on my motorola i920 it has a boosmobile sim card is there a reason for th

Hi
This can be caused by a lot of different reasons
Have you tried turning off your device for 5 minutes with simcard out and then placing the sim card back in and retrying to send and receive a text message?
Devices with sim cards can start having this issue for several different reasons
1. Just needs to be refreshed in the manner that I described above
2. Contacting your provider and having them go into your device and refreshing your network and settings.. They might also refresh your text messaging feature in your device and sometimes when they do this you might lose all or some of your texts but the issue is normally resolved.
3. When you have a device with a sims card the sims card is what really makes your device do all that it does.. So that being said your sims card also might need to be replaced.
I would recommend going to your carrier provider via store or telephone so that they can test your device..
Hope this helps a little

Are you using a SIM from the original provider or another provider?

Hi, issues like this are related to your Sim card (network),
not your Cell Phone . In most cases, regarding the text messages,
the problem is from the Service Operator. Have you tried the Sim card on another phone? If not,
remove the Sim card, insert it on another phone and try sending a message from another mobile to you number,
or you can do it in vise- versa by inserting another Sim card on your mobile.

If you can't receive text messages even when it's inserted on another handset,
then you will need to call the customer care of your Network Operator and tell
them your problem, they will help you fix it immediately.

You can check the message center number, but I don't think
it's very much important in your case, well, if you wanna try,
just check the text message settings and verify that the message
center number (which is currently in use) is the same number which
is on another phone with the same network (the other Sim should be
of the same network in your area). If it's different, make the changes
and save the settings. Also disable the "Receive Via" or similar settings..
(I can't recollect the exact settings as i don't have the same model with
me, please excuse me for this.).

If the same Sim card doesn't receive text messages using another handset,
don't bother to change the settings or to make any changes with it,
first call the customer care and verify from them, you may make mistakes instead of fixing it.


Hope that helps.

Thanks for using fixya.......

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. If you have Motorola phone tools installed in your system, then you can directly copy the messages from the phone to your Computer. And, if you are unable to see the messages through the SIM card reader then the messages would be in the phone and not SIM.

Please do rate the solution and revert for further assistance.

Thanks

you have to save all the text messages from motrolla to your sim to see them

ur mobile keypad might got slight damage... since it got wet.... u can go to th authorised service centre for motorola an get ur keypad service.... so that ur prob get solved..... kindly rate me .... thank you....

hi there,
you sim card does not work the phone or the phone might lock with other provider-- try to turn off the phone - take out the battery and sim card - wait for 30 sec - put the sim card then the battery in - wait for 30 sec - turn on the mobile .. i hope you will able to make calls now.

sms thing... go to message settings - look for message center number if there is then it will be ok when you restart your phone but if you didnt find it call custoer service and ask the message center number. get it write it and you are ready to seend messages.

Best of luck.

I had the same problem but I have nextel. I called them and they just told me to send all text messages as 'MEDIA MESSAGES' and it works!

adresses i cant tell anything about but when some are on sim and some arent, it means your simcard is full so they are using th regular memory....

sorry only the mobile companies and providers have that kind of software
