I recently purchased an LG 5450 from Telus and am trying to get it so that when I go ‘Appear Offline’ that people can then text me.
Well, I can get it so far that I can receive the texts from people, what I can’t do is reply back with my phone. If I hit reply I get ‘Reply Address Is Not Available’.
I’ve noticed on a few of my friends phones, when they received messages from someone off MSN, they get a number assigned to this person, which then they can reply and it sends to them. From what I can see it’s MSN giving the E-Mail address a text messaging number so the phone can reply to person on MSN, I’m probably wrong, but it sounds good to me.
Another issue I’m getting is when I log into my MSN Mobile account on the website it doesn’t include the icon for MSN Messenger. I have ‘Mobile Web’, ‘Alerts’, ‘My Account’, ‘Help and Support’ icons, but nothing for MSN Messenger.
I don’t know what’s happening and it’s annoying the crap out of me. I guess my real question is, are there any other people with Telus that are using Mobile MSN with no problems? (Can text back to the person on MSN with no problems?)
Any help would be awesome.
Check which carrier your friends who receive a reply number are with. My guess is that they are with either Bell Mobility (or a Bell affiliate) or Rogers Wireless.
I don’t think Telus has an arrangement with MSN.As for your second issue, you’ll need to reconfigure your mobile account and select to receive HM and IM.
Go back to the Mobile subscription page, login, and select the menu link “Chane My Service”.
If your current information is not already displayed, reenter it, and continue.
At some point, you should get to the page that allows you to configure for IM and HM (attached is a screenshot).
Hope this helps.
