This happened before and was corrected. But now, its happening again. Is there another glitch in the matrix? Who broke Twitter?

if there's a problem at twitter.com in the application side, sending ON will not solve the problem.

i've done so many times lately since the internal server errors, and what did i learn from it ? i learned patience...

if sending ON or deleting then enrolling your phone only works for a short time, wait a few days. to be safe, try again after a week and see if the twitter developers have fixed the problem...

when i sent ON to twitter a few days ago, the phone notification stayed on this time, and until now it's still working. i suppose they've fixed the application problem. :-)

the service is free, who am i to demand more than what they can provide ?...

It's interesting that the problem was solved for so many people by simply sending a tweet. In my case, it was always by sending ON or by re-verifying my phone.

I had this problem too. O2, UK, pay as you go.

I deleted and started again with my phone last week -- worked for a couple of days but then sometime Saturday or Sunday it stopped.

Seems to go wrong at the weekend, which is annoying because that's when I'm away from the web and need SMS the most! (And can't get to web to do the delete & start over thing.)

I have deleted and re-added my mobile but it stops after a few hours - its annoying!

Mine also started to work after I sent an update via SMS. I suppose Twitter makes SMS notification hibernated when there is no update via SMS(this seems to be important! nothing happened when I updated via Web) for a certain period of time.

Happy Mother's Day GeekMommy! Did you break Twitter again? I have no idea who is following me since Friday. But do I really care? Hey Goldfoot... what's the deal? Are you keeping secrets again?

I solved it. Went into my twitter settings, deleted my mobile number, then re-entered mobile number and re-authenticated it with an SMS. Works fine now. Must have had something to do with the db outage I guess

sugree replied 7 days ago to the problem "SMS stopped" in Twitter:

I follow @zybernav and @ohhohe and it now works. I just need to send "on" via sms by 9 baht via truemove and click "save" in devices setting to get sms only direct messages.

The exact reason is still unknown but workaround is good enough.

I did the same thing as you and it worked as well. – mdy, 7 days ago

Nick replied 7 days ago to the problem "SMS stopped" in Twitter:

I didn't receive any SMS for many days. Tried everything: re-adding my phone, making sure IM updates were off, sending ON, unchecking/re-checking SMS updates boxes... Nothing worked.

Then I sent a status update by SMS, and immediately I started receiving texts again! Following day the texts stopped coming in, so I sent another update by SMS, again they started working.

The evidence is circumstantial, so perhaps I'm wrong or maybe there's more to it than that, but for me at least updating my own status by SMS cures the problem.

I can live with having to update by text once per day, if that really is going to cure the problem long term; I just wish Twitter or whoever their SMS providers are would make the rules clear to us.

I'm on '3' in the UK and using the +44 number.

ohhohe replied 7 days ago to the problem "SMS stopped" in Twitter:

I did send 'on' to a twitter number. It seems to revive my SMS updates and the counter is ticking. I told my friends who had the same problem in Thailand and it also worked out for them.

But why?

zybernav replied 7 days ago to the problem "SMS stopped" in Twitter:

I'm in Thailand and the sms updates started coming back since May 7 afternoon (local time) after sending an update from my mobile.

Hope things are getting back to normal to you all.

I have the same problem in Denmark on Sonofon/BiBoB.

sugree replied 8 days ago to the problem "SMS stopped" in Twitter:

I didn't get sms for a week. I'm in Thailand +66 and my received sms is still 0.

jonathan replied 8 days ago to the problem "SMS stopped" in Twitter:

Mine stopped too - I'm in Netherlands on +31 mobile number (KPN). Last twitter SMS received was just before midnight my local time on May 1st - since then nothing. Looks like a major glitch or Twitter has lost it's SMS rights to non-US numbers

Mine doesn't work anymore either. I'm in Australia and have previously had no problems at all.
