Hi Des Reference this thread: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/485/41962.html The "+" is not getting set/displayed on the mobile handset (Android 2.3.3). The MMS is displayed with the senders mobile number minus the + sign. Following MMSC settings: MSISDNHeaderDefaultCountryCode is not set MSISDNHeaderPrefixConvert=44:+44 MSISDNHeaderConvertToLocalNumber=Yes Any suggestions? I need the + sign to get displayed. Want International Format. Thanks once again. Sam | |||

Hi Sam, You are explicitly defining users right? If so, you need to explicitly define the phone number in the "MMSC User" account to include the "+". The other setting is more applicable for configurations where user accounts are being dynamically provisioned. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des Yes manually created the user. Phone number is in international format. Still the + sign doesnt come So i dont require the mdisdnheader settings at all right? Any pointers or this might be an android issue? Regards Sam | |||

Hi Sam, I think it may be just an Android issue. I notice on an Android handset that if I send an SMS or MMS to the handset, and the sender address is not in the address book, Android displays the sender address in local number format, without the "+". If the Android user replies back, it looks like Android does put the "+" back when sending the reply. You'd have to look at the MMSC-YYYYMMDD.LOG to see what the recipient address format is to verify. It will show you whether or not the "+" is present. I'm confident that the "+" is in the sender address if it is in the phone number associated with the user account. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des Indeed!!!!!! The MMSC log does have the + present. Strange thing is that i do have the sender address in the address book..but its stored as a local number (with the 0 prefix) I really hope and pray that google fixes this bugs with Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich release. Thanks once again for your time. Highly appreciated. Regards Sam |
