That s**ks, as they say. I'd often wondered if +447624801423 worked in short-code countries if all else failed. Now I know that they did - once upon a time... Thanks, anyway. – Eridanus, on August 16, 2008 17:23

T-Mobile (Sidekick service) doesn't support shortcode.Gotta use the UK number. At least, that's the only help I've found on here that works. – DaintyVillian, on August 16, 2008 17:14

DaintyVillain: Out of interest, since you're in the USA: Did *you* ever have to text via +447624801423, and why? Normally, 40404 would be your Twitter number. – Eridanus, on August 16, 2008 17:12

DaintyVillain: That only applies if missgeeks doesn't reside in Canada, India or the USA. – Eridanus, on August 16, 2008 17:03

Yup. You have to send your tweets to the UK number, and you can't recieve tweets back. Suck. – DaintyVillian, on August 16, 2008 16:00

It appears that Sprint blocks some US short numbers by default, including Twitter's 40404 SMS text message number.

However, not all Sprint representatives are aware of this!

In another thread, various Sprint customers persuaded Sprint to unblock 40404.

In that rather long thread, this post might be the quickest route to a solution.

Make sure to check the CAPS on the password. I had this issue at first. generally, the first letter in any text-entry field is caps. – Kynmore, on July 29, 2008 17:02

Try to type two zeros instead of the + symbol, that is 00447624801423. I found that out accidentally, and made that number work. – PaytonGlass, on July 20, 2008 08:14

Does anyone know how to set up the mobile Twitter through a Sidekick?

I called Sprint and after three phone calls with them they finally got short codes to work for me.

Metro PCS is teh suck for not having short codes. Everyone else I know gets to Twitter but me! I tried logging on the website on my phone but it keeps telling me I have the wrong username and password combination, but when I use the same password and username on my home computer, it works just fine...

Hi grykat. Since your phone numbers are verified but you're still not receiving tweets, could you kindly see if this related thread will help?

grykat replied on July 07, 2008 01:27 to the problem "can't verify my sprint phone" in Twitter:

My son and I can send, but not recieve tweets - so we know our number verified OK, but maybe Sprint blocks incoming?

Solved for me! :D

I can't verify my cell phone as well! I send the message with the code, I get the carrier report saying it was received but then.. nothing!

None of the tips that livvy suggests works since I used to have it verified before (I just started over)

my sprint phone is not working either...
i'm not sure if the short codes are being blocked or not, but it works with Yahoo! OneSearch...
I've been trying for the past "long time'
