    Please Rate Afrihost

    Speed is very good, most of the time, but I have had slow but very good service. Not as happy for hosting in a Windows environment, as the control panel provides no access to SQL Server databases, and no remote login. To update your db, you have to upload a backup and ask support to do the...

    Surface Mounted Micro SD Socket

    I'm trying to fix one of my Raspberry Pis, where when I put the SD card too skew, and pressed a bit too hard, it damaged this surface mounted socket. The socket has a plastic base through which the SD card contacts solder onto the top side of the board. This is a very simple repair - clamp and...

    Huawei E303: Device not found

    I have just installed Mobile Partner, in the hope of using USSD commands on my E303 dongle. I need to convert CellC airtime to data, and have no phone available to swap the card out to. The web interface for the dongle still works fine, when I plug it in it opens a browser page, and when I go...

    Can't get Gmail working on Nokia E7

    I use Gmail for Apps, not the regular Gmail service, so my email address doesn't end in gmail.com, but this should not make a difference. It doesn't for any other services I use to access my Gmail account. I have tried several options, several times, on my E7, both on a Gmail account type and...

    Browser not working on Nokia 2710 Nav, Edition

    On my 2710, when I select Internet from the main menu, then select Browser, nothing at all happens. If I select one the built-in internet locations from the menu, like Home or Nokia.mobi, the phone navigates to the correct web page. What is wrong here?

Now, I can easily connect to the internet using my Vodacom sim, but then I lose the use of my phone number. When I try and connect using my MTN sim, I get the error "Packet data access point not...

    How can I generate an SMS UDH and prepend it to message text to send concatenated SMS

    In order to send SMS (7-bit) longer than 160 chars, you have to break the message up into 153 character messsage data parts and prefix each of these with a 5 octect UDH (user data header), explaining that these are parts of a multipart SMS and should be 're-assembled' by the receiving device...

    Not receiving SMS to self.

    I finally managed to send an SMS using the AT+CMGS modem command on my Nokia 2330, but I haven't received it. Is there something else I have to do, or do 'own number' SMS's not get sent?

    Multi-part SMS's longer than 160 chars.

    I'm using an SMS gateway that limits SMS messages to 160 chars. It's going to be a month of Sundays trimming down all my messages to 160 chars, so I'd like to break the messages up into 160 parts, but then the recipient will get several SMS's, unlike when I get an SMS longer than 160 chars as...
