Sending int'l SMS in int'l format

I have unlimited international texting package on my phone. All my contacts numbers are in international format. E.g.:
• US numbers are +1-ccc-nnn-nnnn (ccc = area code. nnn = the phone number)
• UK numbers are +44-7ccc-nnn-nnn.
• SA numbers are +27-8c-nnn-nnn.
I was using an EVO on a personal account and had no problem sending to my friends in UK, Albania, Germany, South Africa and Australia. Int'l texting worked great for a few months now. I then converted to a business account and got a Photon on a new line; switched the int'l texting package to that phone. Sprint CS verified that it is indeed active on the Photon line.
Whenever I send an int'l SMS I always get this message from sender 9230: "Message sent to invalid destination. Please check your number and try again. Msg 2127".
I phoned Sprint CS and my issue has been escalated up to Tier 3 support at the int'l dept. They have asked if I have included 011 in front of my number.
Therefore, the numbers to send the int'l SMS would be:
• UK numbers 011-44-7ccc-nnn-nnn.
• SA numbers 011-27-8c-nnn-nnn.
It seems, if I send a message to a friend in UK this way, he gets the message, but if I use international format for my numbers, I get the 9230 error message.
I really don't want to have to change 200+ contacts by adding 011 prefix to all my numbers. Having all my numbers in international format is great for when I travel. The + symbol will be the international dialing prefix depending on the country: US is 011, Europe is 00.
Seeming as the int'l messages worked fine on the EVO 4G, could it possibly be an error on the Photon's side of things in the way it is interpreting the international format prefix +?
While I wait for an answer from Sprint Int'l department, can anyone verify if this happens with them on their Photons?
Thanks
I have actually never encountered such problem. Although, the only international texts I have sent to is to Hong Kong. All my phone numbers are in +852 xxxx xxxx as it were supposed to be.
Right off my mind (Although I'd be surprised Sprint hasn't suggested this yet), you might want to check Settings -> Call Settings -> Plus Code Dialing Setting, and make sure the checkbox is set, the the dialing code is set to 011?
Thanks for the heads up, but my settings were the default:
Under the Plus Code Dialing settings:
Domestic Dialing IS checked
International Dialing & Messaging code: 011
Evo 4G LTE
I'm having this same problem with my Evo LTE. I imported all of my contacts and SMS history from my Desire, which I had used in Germany for the last 2 years.
A bunch of the numbers don't work. I tried updating a few numbers of people I SMS frequently, but it didn't solve the problem. It looks like any thread that was STARTED with an international number defaults back to that number any time I SMS in that thread, or even respond to an SMS from that contact. Even when the incoming number shows up in U.S. (xxx) xxx-xxxx format, I still get a 2127 error for replies.

How to debug email ?

So I picked up a new razr (first smart phone) and I'm trying to get email to work. I'm new to andriod but not linux. I can receive email fine; but I cannot send email (I send a message; it indicates sending but then it comes back a few seconds later and indicates it failed to send the mail). However I do not see any sort of error message (reason for failure) or error log.
-
I probably misconfigured the outgoing side of email; but verify server passes (outgoing and incomming are not the same and outgoing uses port 25 with tls (password authenticated).
-
I'm sure there is a simple error here; and if i saw the error messsage (reason email failed to send) i could probably figure it out.
So is there any sort of error log or error message that would explain why the mail failed to send ?

I hate to ask the obvious, but to check, did you use a 10 digit number, area code + number?
That is assuming you're in the US using a US SIM card sending an SMS to a US number.

invalid mmi code and or ussd code issue when run from stock dialer.

I have a samsung gs4 and i cant call my voicemaill *86 It tells me invalid mmi code Other times I get the operator telling me the number I called is invalid. I also have a few apps that can start from the dialer that no longer start because of the above errors. I am rooted and running stock verizon firmware. My network operator is Telcel in Mexico.
I have to say it is not Telcel's fault since I can't use my dialer to run gallery vault either. The pin for that app starts with a ##1234 i.e. ## (then 4 digit pin )
I can make and receive calls no problem.
This problem started around 3 months ago, nothing was changed in android's settings or any app that have administrator privledges. I noticed this because I received a notification regarding a voicemail I received and wasn't able to check it.
( I don't get many v.m. )
I can call customer ( *264 ) service but only by prefixing a ( # ) i.e. I have to dial #*264 in order for the call to go through.
If I dial *264 as per Telcel's official c.s. number, I get the invalid code or mmi number error.
As per launching the gallery vault app via dialer, I have no luck with prefixing the "#" as with the c.s. number, since the launch code already starts with 2 "#" 's. I.e. ( ###1234 ) doesn't launch app.

Not receiving some text messages

In the last few days I have noticed that I cannot receive security verification texts from different companies. It happened on trying to login to my social security account where they send a verification code by text to the phone number on the account as a part of their 2 step identification process . It happened again yesterday with my phone carrier Cricket that sends text notices to all phones on the account. I needed to reset my password and was on the phone with rep from Cricket wireless and she send the text while I was on the phone with her. It just would not come through. This has been only recently as I was getting texts from Cricket on payment notice and such. I did check my messaging and found the texts with and error saying cannot download. I tried to download but it keeps saying "failed to download". I get all regular texts from friends and family including MMS. It seems only from companies sending notices to my phone. Anyone have any ideas? I have the US version BLA-A09 on 8.0.0.125(C567). I recently updated to .125 and I am wondering if that could be something that caused this.
Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.
Barry
