I'm having trouble sending an operator logo via SMS. I have tried to use examples listed in the forums here with no luck either
I can get ringtones to send to other mobiles with no problems. When I try to send a logo, it sends properly but the incoming phone shows nothing but it then fails to receive any more messages (regardless of whether it is an SMS, ringtone or logo) for an average of four hours after sending.
The image I'm trying to send is:

The MCC is 505 (05F5) and the MNC is 02 (20)
The SMSs are:
//SCKL15820000010401 3005F5200A00480E0147494638396148000E00910000000000FFFFFFFFFFFF00000021F90401000002002C0000000048000E00000287940D70CBCDD9
I have also tried to send it via the userdataheader and userdata (in 8 bit data mode) but that only came to the phone as 4 SMS with a message saying the data can't be shown (paraphrasing the message from memory)
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Steve

You need to have a look at the SmartMessaging FAQ and SmartMessaging Spex, paying particular attention to the OTA bitmap part. The data portion of what you are trying to send here is *not* an OTA bitmap, but a straight GIF file. You need to convert your GIF to OTA bitmap (there are lots of 3rd party solutions available) and then give it another shot.
