    Any1 on Genie ?

    Anyone on Genie still?

    Any probs with txt's?

    Taking ages and ages for txt's to arrive on my fone over last few days.....some are taking over a day :eek:

    Sending is a problem too at times....

    What I have to do (according to tech support) is to select a new network from the lists on me fone....then re-select genie....as if to detach myself from genie's network and then re-register onto it......

    Spmetimes this works and the txt's come floodin in.......not today tho!

    Any ideas ppl?

    Av read in sum places that this is a common prob with Sony Ericsson T68i's ??? :confused:

    Try changing your message centre number to one of the below, it may help as a temporary measure :D

    Make sure to make a note of the one already onm your fone tho! :lol:

    +919814047108
    +919814047109

    Should be free as well :)

    Are these alternative msg centre numbers for genie or just sum that have been found to be 'open and free' ?

    Its not just sending them thats the problem tho, thats fine most of time, receiving is problem....sometimes takes ages.....so new msg centre nu ber wont help that, no ?

    Thanx anyways tho :D

    Im on genie, simple truth is with it being over xmas and free txt's everyone is txting more than normal and hence the service is slower.

    t68i humm, had one for a while, good phones as well, shame they all will need a software upgrade in march when the networks upgrade! (T68i's software was basically threw together to get it out in time for MMS and now the networks are changing to a new standard)

    £60 cash waiting if ur interested. Low I know but hey im broke!

    PS. All nokia's (minus 6650) are crap. Too simple and stuck in the stone age.

    Aye tis true - a shud have learned after last year!!!

    (TIP: txt everyone to say happy new year about 20mins before new year kicks in!!!! If you try send nearer the time it takes an age to be delivered :D)

    Software upgrades dont bother me like to be honest....not toe hardest thing to get done....can live with it :D

    £60 cash? *(&$(&%(£&* awf ;) :D

    7650 and 6610 are good nokias like!

    I had both. The sony J70 was ona the crappest fones. Had shit memoray for msg's. Nd the Erricson T68 is really gud but i prefer nokia's to txt with.

    Got the 7650 at the mo. Tis bulky but these camera fones rock!!!!
    Will get fotos of peeps on fri:)
