Hi Eleanor,

This might be an answer if it is possible. A friend of mine a few years ago bought a phone on the Orange network. He wanted the phone sim free. He took it to a local Car phone warehouse who cleared the phone of the Orange software etc and updated the firm ware to sim free. I know it seems a bit drastic but by doing that if again it is possible there will be no remnants of vodaphone.

I don't know if the Car phone techy guys can do this. It might be worth a call to your local branch. I think it cost him £10.00. I know that there are some phones that nothing can be done with such as the 3 network.

Kindest Regards, John

Hi Eleanor,
Not Jackie but Carla. I remember when I wanted internet and email, I had to contact O2 and speak to the department which dealt with data handling or some such name. They had to activate it their end for me. This may well be the case for you even though you have all the settings already.
Hope this helps,
Carla.

Jackie now that you are the authority on this subject let me say what my
problem is and hopefully your expertise will resolve it for me as 02 simply could not. I have pay as you go but I will admit that I am using a Vodafone unlocked N96. I am unable to access the Internet and e-mail because it says
'Packet Data' not available!!!  All my Internet settings are correct as
checked by the 02 Store and he even put them in manually but this error is
still occuring. When I am at home I can access the Internet and my e-mails
on the same phone via my wireless router.  We will be getting you a job in
telecommunications *smile*.

Hi John

These providers wouldn't know a Message Centre if it bit them on the
bum! (lol).  My friend told them it might be this, to which one replied:
"What's that"?  Imagine working for O2 or Voda or any other network and
not knowing that! I find it worrying quite honestly.

Hi Jackie,

Thanks for the support. It shows the difference between Nokia and other
providers like o2. I have experienced the run around from the
government.lol First time for o2.lol

Nokia were so helpful, they even called back yesterday to make sure I
had the problem solved. That is good PR.

I had never come across the message center and hopefully anyone who has
this problem in the future can just say to there provider that Nokia has
given them the message center number for every one of their models.

Thanks for the image boost as well. smile

Kindest Regards, John

Hi

Not Steve, but a better model (smiles).

This business of ringing providers and being told a load of rubbish,
only to get the proper answer once you've been round the houses really
does my head in.  I had a friend ring me the other day saying virtually
the same thing as yourself about his texts.  He couldn't send or
receive, however, though had been using his phone quite happily for some
time using texts.  But he went to his network provider, and was told the
phone would need to be sent away because it had to be unlocked.  What a
load of crap! He was using the phone, so how did it need to be unlocked
for that network?  I suggested  to him that he get his Message Centre
number checked out and this was, in the end, his problem too.  I just
get really irritated when network providers come out with all sorts of
garbage, giving a customer who doesn't know what to do next the
run-around.

Glad you are now sorted.

Hi Steve,

Thanks once more for your help. I called Nokia this morning only to be
told exactly what you had stated. I then called O2 and spoke to a
charming young woman who guided me through the procedure in a couple of
minutes, to put a number in the message center.

She of course apologised for the guy not giving me this information
yesterday. She said it is standard procedure to give a customer a
message center number and that every o2 agent is aware of this.

Problem solved and thanks.

Kindest Regards, John.

Hi John,



You need to set up your Message Centre number. This is
why it is taking you there.



To find this out, ring your provider. They may even be
able to send you a text with the settings in it, to save you putting
them in manually.



All the best



Steve

Subject: [talks-uk] nokia n82 problem



Dear List,



I am a new member and have a puzzling problem with my
new N82.



Every method I use to send a text is brought to a sudden
stop when something called "The Message center" opens. I am unable to
send the text from there. The only keys that work in that screen are the
soft keys and when I press the soft key  2, I am back in the body of the
message.



I can make and receive calls, receive texts but unable
to send them from either the contacts list or in messaging. I cannot
reply either as each road takes me to the message center.



Any advice would be very much appreciated. I am using
talks demo at the moment on the Nokia N82.



Kindest Regards, John
