    Hi there

    Since i have had the Torch 9800 some other handsets can't read my text messages sent via sms. These phones could read all sms's sent via my previous phone, the Curve 8900.

    Any idea what could be the problem?
    Error message on recipient phones is something like "...contents of this message cannot be displayed..."

    Regards

    try contacting your provider to ensure all the SMS settings are correct in your device.

    the only thing i could think of is in the SMS options. the data coding for my phone is on 7-bit as opposed to UCS2. maybe check to make sure its set properly.

    how long has this issue been going on for? it could just simply be an SMS issue on your carriers end.

    Hi there I just saw that my sms settings were at UCS2 i changed that to 7-bit. I have had the phone for 1 week, and thats when i start noticing SOME friends can't read my sms. Only some.

    well like i said, you may need to check with your carrier. i dont know what they will require your settings to be set at.
