General :: Unblock Short Code Messages On Phone?
May 15, 2013
I just got a Star N9300 phone and activated it with Ultra Mobile Service. I tried texting some short codes on it but keep getting the message: Free Msg: Unable to send message - Message Blocking is active. Text messaging to regular phone numbers works fine though. I called Ultra's support and they said that they block short code messages. They did not offer to unblock the messages so I'm stuck. Is there a way I can get around this by programming my phone or a program I can install that will allow me to get messages. I am running Android 4.0 and it is an unlocked GSM phone.

I was trying to use the short code messages for promotions and stuff but realized I get the same 9230 error msg:Message failed. Shortcake may have expired or shortcode texting may be blocked on your account.Msg 1051.

I couldn't find this while searching these forums but if its already been covered please point me in the right direction. when i receive email from android forums it sends me a link to the forum that a new message was posted to. thats great an i like it doing that.. my problem is sometimes the link is "too long" and g mail cuts it off before sending it to my phone so i cant tap it. the email shows up correctly on my computer at g mail.com so i know it must be a setting in my phone or in g mails interface of what it sends to my phone.

I have been trying to write an app that periodically parses the contents of gmail messages. I have been through the JavaMail FAQ and I have looked at a number of examples in the JavaMail download package but have been unable to get this to work. The code below currently causes the following gmail error:
Host is unresolved: imaps.gmail.com:993
I have also tried imap.gmail.com:143 but get:
Host is unresolved: imap.gmail.com:143
GMailReader is the class I am using to try and return gmail imap messages:
CODE:...........

On my old phone (unlocked iPhone),I subscribed to news and weather updates via SMS from a local radio station. The shortcode is 411923.Then I got Nexus One (same T-Mobile service and SIM) and still receive the messages from them. Well, one day, there was a big news day (chile earthquake?) and I was getting annoyed by them, so I was gonna reply with "STOP" like you do with most short codes.The Nexus absolutely refuses to even attempt to send this number a text. It won't even try. It immediately shows the "message failed <!>" notification and sound.I can send to various other shortcodes, but this and a few others, the Nexus won't try.I am sure I could get another T-Mobile phone and swap SIMs to do it from that phone.I am just wondering what is the problem?

So I use my Eris as a GPS from time to time and when I do, I do not want the screen to shut off automatically. I know how to change this in settings but what I want is a widget that I can keep on my home screen that will disable the screen time out, and then turn it back on again (the way the wifi short cut allows me to turn my wifi receiver on and off without going through settings.
I do not think such a short cut already exists, I would happily write it myself, but not sure how to go about starting.

This is the first time I've rooted a phone, and i picked the Kaos Froyo V38 as the rom, but I've noticed since i did all of this my battery has been far far worse than what it was un-rooted. Today, for example i had my phone off the charger and on vibrate (with gps, mobile network off) and i was down to under 15% in under 5 hours. This is so much worse. Is it because i'm now running 2.2? What can i do to help this besides wiping the battery data (in the recovery menu)? I'm not really good with all of this yet, so some suggestions would be wonderful.

I would like to be able to program the Android to send a short voice recording (approx 10 word message) to a land line (i.e non mobile) phone. Is this possible? I have googled re this and it appears that though I can send a text message I cant do the voice message thing. Is this still the case?

The following code is coming in instead of regular text in my received text messsages. It's randomly coming in at various lengths of text from various people.i haven't rooted in a while so these oddly coded texts may be attributed to an old/buggy ROM?

Received my 2.1 OTA at 1:36 AM last night and ever since, I can't manually lock my phone by short pressing the power button anymore. I thought maybe this was a Spare Parts issue, since I had changed the Power Button behavior on 1.5 using Spare Parts (when I pressed Power from any screen, it would return me Home; pressing from Home would Lock). So, I uninstalled Spare Parts, but this didn't remedy my problem. Any advice?

My phone is a maguro (Galaxy Nexus GSM), bootloader unlocked , ClockworkMod Recovery and Cyanogenmod11.
I found online several method to delete the code/pattern security.
Some methods use USB debugging (I have a Tasker script that disables it at every boot).
I also found a clever and powerful tool that really scares me. There is a zip that deletes the Gesture.key and Password.key file.Are there other methods from which I should protect my phone and my data?

My wifes ZTE Blade 1 phone broke (graphics chip broke) but have a spare ZTE Skate. Luckily I have a clockworkmod image of the broken phone & have extracted the data from it to get the mmssms.db & telephony.db files.
However, when I paste them over the exsiting files (have root etc) & reboot I get force close errors & have to replace the old files back.
There is no way to boot the old phone & backup the messages - the only way to get the messages back is to get the mmssms.db to work.

I received text messages from my husband's phone # but he swears he didn't send them, they said: busy right now, talk to you later. Is there something in the settings that he activated without knowing what it was, because one of his co-workers got the same text right.

how i would go about doing this. it doesn't have to be free. i just want to keep my messages, and be able to restore them to the new phone somehow.

People are still sending me texts even though I can't read them. I can still hear notification sounds. I've gotta get a replacement quick, but I also need to get the important texts I missed. Is there any way I can get them through my mac?
To be clear, the screen is completely blank but I can still unlock it via touch pattern. It takes a few tries but Android File Transfer on the mac will tell me if it can or can't connect. If it can't, I just try again and I can get it. So the touch part still works, it just doesn't show any information.
The phone is a Galaxy Nexus. When I connect it to my Mac, I can see the files in it via the Android File Transfer window. However, I can't find the texts here.
I have the Android SDK installed and I was told I can do this: adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db..However the device shows up as offline when I do adb devices. I can't figure out a way get it showing up as online without being able to use the screen.

I own a T-Mobile Comet and have been able to download the iPhone MMS messages and send pictures before. I have owned this phone for roughly a year, and starting a couple weeks ago I have been unable to receive the MMS messages or send my pictures, I use Handcent. What happens when I get the message- It says Subject:no subject 1 KB and has a download button, after I press it all that happens is it says "Downloading" for hours on end and never actually does. When I send pictures the send spiral just spins endlessly and it doesn't send. My mobile data is on, my WiFi is off and I'm not sure what else I need to do.

I am needing to recover text messages from a damaged phone to be able to present as evidence. The phone is a Motorala Razr Maxx HD. The screen is broken and the battery has been disconnected. I am hoping for maybe some program that will allow my to plug it into my computer and pull my old text messages off of it or any other ideas on how to retrieve the files.

I am a longtime iPhone user and I have recently been given a Samsung Galaxy S3 by my employer. In the past I have just used my old Android phone for Tethering with FoxFi so I can have web access at work on my laptop. I literally never made any phone calls with it for over 2 years. I have had the calls forwarded from my Verizon Android phone to my ATT iPhone since the day I got it.
Currently I have a (PERSONAL) iPhone 4 on AT&T with a 3G connection and I have this (WORK CELL) Samsung Galaxy 3 on Verizon 4G LTE.
I would like the ability to fully test out the S3 and leave the iPhone at home if I so choose. Call forwarding either way is not a problem at all. I can forward my iPhone personal calls to my work cell and I can forward my work cell calls to my iPhone (Currently this is how I have it). Call forwarding works great but I am looking for a way to handle text messages in a similar manner.
I would like to have the ability to send and receive text messages using my personal number from my Android Phone. I have Google Voice installed on both phones but I cant seem to get it to work at all or I am not setting it up correctly. I would not mind having texts show up on both devices or in my Gmail inbox. There has to be a way to do this. That way if I leave either phone at home it not a big deal I don't have to carry two phones. Nobody ever texts my work number, my only texts received are to my personal cell.

I would like to set a short cut for weather and hotmail. How do I do that? I want to just scroll to the left or right from the home screen to weather or hotmail instead of going to the menu.

I've had it for about a week now, and hoped it would get better, but it's just been atrocious. Much much worse than my stock rom ever was. I'm out of ideas. Does anybody know the latest radio version that CM will work with? They say "install the latest radios" but I have no clue where/what radios those are. Hopefully that will be something to help me.

Is it just me, or is this happening to anyone else? Every once in a while, a song, weather it be Pandora or an MP3, will end well before the actual end of the song. Like it skips the last 2 minutes of the song, and moves on to the next one. It seemed like it happened a bunch of times one day, but I haven't had it happen again but once or twice. Whats up?
