Hi, has anyone else had a problem with SMS's in the last 7 days? My txt were not arriving at my k700i phone (earliest firmware) for about 6 days. I began 2 get suspicious so i sent myself a txt and it didnt come through. I turned off and on my phone and my self sent txt came through along with a txt that had obviously been sent a days before. Now the txt seem to be working a little more systamaticaly, but I still get the odd old txts coming through.

Anyone else experence somthing like this? Or could it be time for firmware update?

Im from N.Ireland btw

Ps- excuse the spelling, in a rush

Thanks

Apparently O2 are aware of the issue. They claim it's a problem with the firmware. This message was posted from a T68i

O2 have had problems with late SMS for a few years, it used to be MUCH worse! The problem is with their network not the K700!

@Mik - Precisely why I used the word "claim"; I've long since stopped trusting ANYTHING service providers tell me. This message was posted from a T68i

won't do you much good as the online service is reported not to work

Looks like a trip to the service center..... but beware many people have reported struggles there as well as not every country seems to have the latest fw just yet

@pleber
dont be wasting your time running to the service center to update the firmware.

My problem with SMS began today about 3pm. i called up o2 and they said they would have been having problems with this model of phone for the last few days. I told them i had the lastest firmware (R2L) and not an old one. the guy said that they were sending new phones out to the people who called up with this problem.

Another strange thing that was happening on the phone, was that it must have been a trainee cause i could hear a woman in the background telling him what to say!!!!
I said to him what was the problem and that i had the most up-to-date firmware, only reflashed last week. He said he had no other information.

I am totally surprised by this.

I am just wondering now, if i have the lastest firmware (R2L) and he is sending out a new phone, with that not just have the same firmware on it. will that then not only have the same problem?? I only thought of that while writing, if anyone has asked this problem to them, please let me know. Thank you.

OWEN

Is it just up two then with this strange problem with O2. The only thing i have a problem with is having to transfer all my files over individually! I have well over 100 photos, 50 video clips and games that i've PAID money for that i cant transfer! O2 will have a question or two to answer soon. This message was posted from a K700i

I cant see that it could be a problem with the phone. People on other networks using the K700 dont seem to have the same problem. I have seen O2 texts take a while to get to other phones in the past. Its probably O2s system that cant keep up with the demand placed upon it.

Thanks for the replies.. i think ill wait a while b4 i upgrade the firmware then.

Ive never really had these problems with o2 before, (been with then for about 4 years), so i thought it could have been the phone.

Cheers
