What to do? Please help!

Goto the file manager, select more-> memory status.

Scroll down to the messages option, if it says 0 messages then you need to go back to the service center.

If it doesnt say 0, select it that option, find where the messages are stored and delete them.

I have now 41MB free, my phone says there are 0 messages. Maybe better idea is buy some logs to SE Client with cable and upload new (or repair this) firmware in home?

@govigov

The K700 has memory specifically allocated for SMS messages, it doesn't utilise the 41 MB internal memory for storing SMS messages, much to many users disappointment!

@dxcore

You could try upgrading your firmware at home, but I would suggest that you go back to the service centre first. If your K700 is indeed branded by T-Mobile it may very well be the case that you cannot upgrade your firmware with firmware, which hasn't been approved by T-Mobile for use on their handsets. If this is the case you will need to have your K700 debranded in order to utilise non-T-Mobile firmware.

I wan't to debrand my phone first, then upload new firmware (SE Client + T28 cable). Dou You think it's good idea? If then it runs? I don't want crap without sms-ing option ;/. BTW - Can i upload new fw without full battery? Or it doesn't matter?

@dxcore

You should be able to debrand your K700 easily enough, there are a few threads discussing debranding, you might want to have a look at them.

I don't think it matters if you have a full battery or not, a slong as your K700 has enough power to complete the process.
