Text Msging A1000

2 replies · 2,341 views · Started 08 September 2005

How can I get text msging to work on the a1000, I'm in canada (Rogers Wireless) and when I go Control Panel > Connections > Messaging accounts nothing comes up. As well when I attempt to text msg a contact it says "Service centre address missing"
Does anyone know how to bypass this or configure it so I can use text msging.
Any help or suggestions much appreciated!

Thanks alot

Hey all.
Finally got all the settings working for Rogers (Canada).
I can now access the internet and receive MMS.
Thanks to PXer, machman, and spud for all their help.
I'm posting all my settings here, so in future any other Rogers users won't have to struggle.
Mods. could we make this a sticky in tips and guides?
CTRL panel --> Connections --> Internet accounts
You'll have to use GPRS editor if you've already got an accout set up.
