Slow sending SMS

6 replies · 2,237 views · Started 04 February 2007

Hi,
I was wondering if I could have some advice, I've been reading through some threads on here and noticed a post about slow n80 and changing your Log to 1 or 10 days will speed up your phone.
I've tried this but my problem is that it takes 2/3 mins to send a message, and the problem is, i can't do anything else whilst its sending. It's so annoying.

Thanks in advance,
Kelly

Go to the support page for the N80

Download and install SMS Accelerator

This application accelerates the sending of SMS messages. It is recommended that you install this application to prevent slowness in SMS sending, which may occur over time if you send lots of SMS messages.

You can download this application, then transfer and install it on your phone. This can be done in the following ways:
Download to your PC and transfer it to your memory card or phone, then run the application.

Use PC Suite "Install Applications".

Download directly from the nokia.com link in your phone's Services browser (where available) to your phone and install.

Please note that some users may find that the handset runs slower for a few minutes after the installation, before returning to normal. The application is invisible to the user.

Hi Kelly, welcome to the forum 😊

The speed increase by changing the log is an increase in the speed of the phone in general, not in the speed of sending the text message.

Do as Ratkat says and you wont have the text sending message delays you have been experiencing 😊..

yeah, the above... and changing your SMS to phone memory instead of MMC or vice versa (cant remember, sorry) speeds things up too.

if your n80 is still v.3, i suggest you firmware upgrade it to v.4 , in v4 you dont need sms accelarator.

If your n80 is v4.. go to to tools, Settings, Network, under netwrk mode, click GSM.

If you want to use 3g or video to video calls, and/or if your network operator supports 3g, switch back to Dual mode.
