Error Invalid Number - 7 digit number prevents future SMS messages
I can't send SMS messages to one of my contacts at all.
my contact had only 7 digits under "Mobile" phone because he was in my area code.
I tried to send a text to him and got this response:
"####### Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. <my text message>"
The ####### was his 7-digit number from the contact info.
So, I modified the contact info and put in the area code to make it 10-digits. I tried sending another text message, but that had the same exact response (with only 7 digit number).
I cleared the messages for that contact and tried again, same result.
I synch'ed my iPhone and then tried again, same result.
My contact now has the correct 10 digit number, but whenever I try to send a SMS message to him I get the response with the 7-digit number saying Error Invalid Number.
How can I fix this?
