Can't receive texts on Orbit - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Hi,
I can't receive any text messages on the orbit. I can sned them thou and make and receive calls.
I called 02 and they said to take out the sim and clean it. If that doesn't work then I should check it in another phone to see if its the phone or the sim.
I checked it in another orbit here at work and both phones can receive text messages. My Sim however, when placed in either phone will not receive them.
Does anybody know of any settings that could be enabled that would prevent incomming texts on the Sim. O2 are useless, they dunno how to fix it. Only got the phone on Friday.
Thanks
Mick

Re: Unlocked Xda2i on Vodafone, problems with Text messages..
Hi All - I wonder if anybody can help please? I have a very strange
problem with my O2 XDA2i, which is unlocked & being used on UK Vodafone.
I flipped back to using it again earlier today [from my trusty PL720],
& noticed that I hadn't received my usual overnight texts/ SMS. On
looking further, I couldn't send any texts either..
I can still however, make & receive calls.
Selecting O2 Active|Messaging|Texts displays 'Inbox' but offers only
2 options - MMS, & Outlook email. No 'Text messages'.
On trying a hard reset, & trying the above again, I see 3 items available
in Inbox, & can send/receive texts.
I am currently working through my backups to see how long I've had this
problem [I don't always use the device with the SIM in].
Anyone, any advice!?
Thanks!

Major SMS problem

I know there are a couple of threads about this already but mine is a little different.
I got O2 XDA Orbit from ebay - put in my VodafoneUK sim card and everything works fine, MMS, GPRS, Internet and even GPS (don't know if the last one matters) - I haven't upgraded or changed any software or anything but my SMS text messages won't work - they sit in outbox for a minute or so then I get the error msg "your text message cannot be sent".
Ant help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Silly question but does the actual phone work - ie can you call out OK?
Can you receive messages?
My Orbit will receive OK but not always send in a poor signal area.
Stew,
Sorted It!!!!
To your answer sloss yes everything else works but I know what it is now.
I tried Start>Settings>Phone>Services...Voicemail and Text Messaging...select and then Get Settings........BUT it actually receives the WRONG yes the WRONG message centre number from the network.
Got a friends UK Vodafone phone and just copied his message centre number and Viola it worked fine, I'm so happy I could cry!!
Just thought this might help some others who may be having this problem.

[Q] Unable to send out text

Hi, my Note2 is unable to send out text since two hours ago and I don't know whether does the problem lies with my phone or my service provider. I'm able to receive texts and receive calls as well as calling out. So how do I know whether is it my service provider or is it my phone?
Try the sim card in another phone.
this is SPARTAAA
Did you tried sending from threaded list? Try composing from a new text eg. via contacts...
Thanks guys, problem solved. Issue was with my network provider.

SMS Troubles - Can Send but Cannot Receive

Hi all. I am not on AT&T so I apologize for posting here but I wasnt sure where else to seek help. Hopefully someone may have an idea.
I recently got a phone on the Pelephone network in Israel. It is a Galaxy S3.
I am able to send SMS texts with no problem. I am also able to receive texts from other phones in Israel no problem.
For the first day or two everything went OK but then suddenly I stopped receiving texts from my friends in the US. They receive mine, but I cannot receive theirs.
My company tried diagnosing this with carrier. They insist everything should work. All the right plans are activated, etc. They even swapped out the SIM. After that the SMS worked fine again for about a day, and then, like last time, stopped working...so people in the US can still receive mine, but I cannot receive their replies anymore.
They are replying in the same way as in the past (replying to my text) so it did work...it just stopped.
I have tried a factory reset which didnt help.
Any ideas?

Sim messages

Hey guys,
i have a strange issue, and didnt find a solution.
Somehow, when i receive messages , it is being sent to messenger and to SIM card.
when the sim card reaches 100 limit, i receive a warning message.
i didnt choose it to send to my sim card, and cannot find the option to change anything.
i must each time to delete one by one the messages in order to keep receiving new SMS.
