    I've discovered something odd with my phone after switching back to vodafone.

    I can receive and make calls without any problems. I can receive texts but when I try send them my phone says "check operator services"

    Has anyone ever come across a problem like this before?

    My phone is an unlocked nokia 3510i if that helps anyone.

    Sounds like the message centre no is wrong. A quick phone call to voda CC will sort this issue out.

    Your service centre no(is that what it's called) could be wrong.

    Edit: SDoom bet me to it and it was message centre.

    Changed the SMSC to both those numbers and still ended up with check operator services message.

    Did you put a + before the number?

    [SIZE=-1]Try +35387699989 or +35387699959[/SIZE]

    Yeah I used the +

    Not that stupid :p

    Is there any specific options I should set in the sending profile? Like use GPRS or something?

    From my experience with Voda porting, u will need to give customer care a buzz just to enable the sms sending after porting.It unfortunately doesn't work automatically all the time.

    1850 208787 Give an operator a shout power phone on and off and you should be grand

    Sorry I didn't even know if they were the right numbers. I did a google and got this page. Thought it might work. I'm with 3 and all my family are o2 so I haven't got access to a vodafone phone. You might get better luck in the morning though. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
