My wife recently got a new Samsung s5600. We are both on 'Three' and I have a Nokia E71.

Whenever she sends me a text, I have no reply option to it, only a forward and delete option.

Same thing happens if she texts a mates E71 and E63 as well.

However, texting another mates Iphone he does get the reply option.

If I go to the message details of the text, it just has the contact name in the From field, whereas from texts that I can reply to, their From field has the contact name and the number the text was sent from. I'm sure this is the issue why I don't get a reply to option when the wife texts me.

So I'm thinking it's a compatibility issue with how Nokia Symbian deals with Samsung Touchwiz message sending? nothing on google about this particular issue :(

Anyone out there come across this before? It's highly annoying having to create a new message everytime I want to reply to a message :mad:

Funnily enough last yr my bro had this same issue with his E71 which was 3 branded but he was on O2...he never managed to get it solved even asked O2 and they had no idea...instead he got the new iphone 3GS.

Perhaps try flashing it with a generic firmware, that might solve the problem.
 
well that royally sucks :(

My E71 has the latest unbranded version 4 firmware and my mates E71 has the generic Three branded version 1 firmware so it not that - must be symbian itself
 
awesome managed to fix it after much fiddling when getting home from work.

On the Samsung > Settings > Application settings > Messages > Text messages > Text message centre > edit '3' > default type was set to 'email' so changed it to 'text' and now I can reply to her messages as usual

crisis averted :D
