Windows 10: We cannot send a text message to this number how i fix it

*** Email address is removed for privacy *** number is Mongolia <Removed for Privacy>

How do I send a text message to a contact's "mobile2" number?

Yes, it is an issue. See

Unless someone else has found a different way, all I do is copy the mobile2 number and go to messaging and add a new text message and paste the mobile2 number. So, suggest putting in as a feature request.

 

Sending SMS text messages

I want to send a plain text message using Windows Mobile 5 to one of my contacts by selecting the person from my contacts list then selecting the send text message option. Doing this puts the contacts name and phone number in the To field of the message
and when I try to send the message it asks me which phone number to use. I select the mobile number from the list, click select, and then get the error "The text message account cannot be used to send email messages". If I manually enter the contacts mobile
number in the To field, the message will send succesfully.



My question is, how do I get the mobile number only to appear in the To box instead of both Contact name and Mobile number when selecting a contact and selecting Send Text Message?

 

Can't send/receive text message.

Hi Josh,

We would suggest performing the following:

• Soft resetting the phone by holding the volume down button and power button simultaneously until phone vibrates and shuts off, remove SIM card and insert back before turning it ON.
  
• The date and time may be incorrect after restarting your phone. To set the time correctly, go to Settings >
  Time & language > Date & time
• Check the signal strength on the phone screen, and move to an area with better reception.
• Send a text message to your own mobile phone number. This will test your sending and receiving capabilities in one go.
  
• Check the SMS center number (Messaging > ... > settings >
  SMS center number). If the number is missing or you think it is incorrect, confirm the number with your network operator.
• If you have Multi-SIM (two SIM cards with the same mobile phone number), note that some text messages can only be received on your assigned primary SIM card.

If the previous steps do not help, insert a different operator SIM card into your phone to verify that the phone is working properly.

Let us know how it works.

Regards.
