In that case I suggest that you contact your operator to see if they can change the settings on the network/SIM card. Otherwise I recommend that you put in another SIM card in your phone or ordering a new one from your network provider.

I am unable to change my message centre number. It required me to remove my simcard and put it into another phone, set it up and then put it back into my Z1 Compact.

It does not allow me to change it on the device.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

To set or change the SMS service center number of your SIM card

  1. From your Home screen, tap the Application screen icon.
  2. Find and tap Messaging.
  3. Tap the menu button (three vertical dots), then tap Settings.
  4. Tap the SIM card for which you want to change the SMS center number, then tap SMS center number and enter the desired number.

If you cannot edit the SMS center number, contact your network operator for more information.

1) in your dialer, enter *#*#4636#*#*

2) select phone information

3) scroll down to the end. You will find SMSC.

4) enter the desired number there and press update.
