international message to China mobile doesn't work

I have switched to iphone 4 in July 2010. International message to China mobile had been fine until Oct 2nd. Since Oct 2nd, I can send text message to China Mobile but they only can receive message in English but Chinese. Even worse since today (Oct 11th), they can't receive any messages (neither English nor Chinese). When users send messages to my iphone 4, they always get "We have received testing message" as an automatic reply. I have called couple of friends located in different cities in US. They all have exact same problem. Is this caused by AT&T or by Apple iPhone 4 firmware? Please help!!!!

iPhone 4, iOS 4

I'm also having the same problem. Has anyone found out what is causing this or how to fix it? I have tried upgrading my iPhone firmware, resetting my iPhone, changing out the SIM card and I still have the same problem.

Same as mine. I have started to get this problem since from October 1st. The weired thing is that I still can communicate with my friends in Taiwan by texting Chinese message. However, my friends in China can send any message to me but cannot get any Chinese message from me. I made couple of calls to AT&T for check recently and everything with my account is fine. I would like to know what the problem is too.
