Sms Centre Number Updating In Android (IMP)

[Ruchir Joshi]

Today went through a strange phenomenon

Sms Centre number was not configured... Tried to update the sms centre
number by going into advanced phone options in Nexus at *#*#4636#*#*

Could Not Update It. Tried Updating the number by inserting a sim on
other phone . Updated message centre number , reinserted in nexus.
Could not send it..

Reason - Android Accepts only Hexadecimal value in message centre
number

So for Vodafone Mumbai +919820005444 becomes - 0791198902004544 ..

Now when i entered this number , pressed update , BINGO ..
resolved ..

Have the trick to get this number ... Email me if you need any
assistance if u faced this issue
