i have reset and restored, still same problem on sending sms.
i put my sim card to another iphone5 ,sms can be send.
put my friend's sim card to my iphone5 sms can not send as well
please help
The only cause I can think of is that the Messages settings on the phone are wrong
Can you please send me your message setting so I can set as per yours.
Actually apple store had done the message setting for me for your
Information and it still does not work.
iMessage - ON
Send Read Receipts - OFF
Send as SMS - ON
Send and receive - 2 addresses (the phone number and an email address)
MMS Messaging - ON
Show Subject Field - OFF
Character Count- ON
You could try with iMessage ON and OFF, to see whether it makes a difference
My message setting is exactly like yours
and not working, please help
I'm sorry, I don't know what else to suggest.
Can you get t an Apple Store and get them to have a look - maybe there's a fault in the phone?
I have gone to apple store in Hong Kong
and after checking they said the phone
is perfect . Puzzle???????
Okay, so you have very good evidence that it is not the sim card. Have you done a complete Reset to Factory Settings? In other words, have you...
1). Backup your iPhone to your Computer or iCloud
2). Connect to iTunes and do a Restore
3). Do Not Sync to your Backup, but rather allow the iPhone to Restore as a Factory New-Out-Of-The Box iPhone.
4) Activate the Phone and try and send an SMS Message
5). If all is well re-connect to iTunes and Sync with your Backup
If SMS still did not Send ...Get a New iPhone.
Very odd. When you did the Restore, did you Restore as a new phone? If not, that might be worth a try. Also, a reisntall of iOS might work too.
If you want to try that, here are the steps:
1. Download a clean iOS from here:
http://osxdaily.com/2012/11/01/ios-6-0-1-direct-download-links/
The links are direct to Apple servers. The download is quite large (900MB or so)
Save the .ipsw file to your hard drive
2. Connect the phone to iTunes, right-click it in the left-hand pane of the iTunes window, and choose "Backup"
3. To do the restore, hold OPTION (Mac) or SHIFT (Windows) and click Restore. You get a window to navigate to the .ipsw file you downloaded earlier.
4. When you are asked, Restore as a new phone
5. When the Restore is finished, but before you get your stuff back onto the phone, check to see if SMS is working.
6. Finally, connect the phone to iTunes, right-click it and choose Restore from Backup - you can then choose the backup you made earlier to get your data back onto the phone.
If this doesn't work - the phone is faulty
Hope it helps
Hi nick101, Great minds...
I have done that, when it was running
under iOS 6 the sending of SMS stop
immediately and message failure appears
immediately. When updated to ios6.0.1
the message actually is being send out and showed on the
progress bars, when reached half way
of the progress bar then only the message
failure appeared . In my opinion is not
the phone faulty .
Have you contacted your Carrier? I am wondering if the issue is on their end? Perhaps your setup file with their system is messed up or something is not activated correctly.
You can send messages using your SIM card in another iPhone 5.
You cannot send messages using another SIM card in our iPhone 5.
That means it's not the SIM card or the network.
You have checked the settings, and replaced all the software.
That measn it's not the software.
The only thing left is a fult in the phone itself.
Go the Apple Store, show the problem; get them to try in another iPhone 5. If it works, then ask for a replacement phone.
