I know this is an old subject but I am puzzled today but a flash message on my phone that I can't find the origins of. How would one send it to me that I don't see it in any of the logs on my system (I Work for the wireless service provider)./ Thanks

Hi,

A flash SMS message is an SMS message sent with a DCS indicating that it is "class 0" (display, but do not save).

However, the fact that it is "class 0" does not mean that it should not be logged by any of the delivery systems that were involved in delivering the message. There should be a record of it there.

Perhaps you're not looking in the right logs ... perhaps it came in via an external roaming partner, and you're only looking at the logs of your SMSC.
