Hello All,

I recently upgraded my messages app in Samsung Galaxy s8 mobile to version 10.1.51.77,  which is the latest version. After the upgrade, SMSes from the mobile number in SIM1 slot in my mobile started failing while the SMSes from the number in SIM2 slot are going through successfully. I am able to receive SMSes on both the numbers. When I checked, I found out that the message centre number was reset to blank for the number in SIM1 slot. I got the message centre number from the service provider, but when I am trying to set the same, I get an error as - "Unable to save centre address" on the contrary I am able to set the message centre for the number in SIM2 slot. Please guide me with a solution.

Thanks in advance

1. Go to: Settings -> Connections -> Mobile networks -> enable “Volte calls” in your Sim1, then -> Network mode, enable ‘LTE/4/3/2G (auto connect)’.
2. Then, go to Messages app. Tap on three dots on upper hand right corner. Then Settings -> More settings -> Text messages -> Message centre, check if phone number given there belongs to area in which your phone number is registered. If it shows wrong area phone number, then replace it with the correct area phone number. For example, if your phone number is registered with Kerala area of Airtel. The Airtel SMS centre number for Kerala is +919898051916. If Message centre has wrong area phone number, then you will be unable to send or receive SMS messages.
