One of our network providers here (Sun Cellular) sends flash messages as reply to prepay accounts balance inquiries. Regardless of the phone model, the messages
-- show up instantly on the phone desktop, you can still see your wallpaper cuz it has transparent background
-- no sender info
-- when the message doesn't fit into the screen it auto-scrolls
-- can't be saved (at least on SE Java phones)

The flash messages i sent from MyPhoneExplorer
-- show up instantly on my K700 and K610 but not on desktop, the background is like that of regular sms.
-- no sender info on K700, has sender info on K610

So it appears there are several ways to encode class 0 SMS? I wonder if CMans Say messages (for Symbian phones) work better than the MPE flash, haven't tried it...

this also works between my virgin uk k750i and my tmob uk locked k810i with a virgin sim. for some odd reason it sent it once and i received 2 messages on my k810i.

before anyone says virgin use tmobiles equipment/network, i know that already

For anyone still wondering, when you goto "Write New Message" in MyPhoneExplorer, there's a bunch of buttons at the top. You just have to click on the lightning bolt button, and it makes it a Flash SMS.

I'd suggest sending a message to yourself first though, just to see whether it really works and to see if it'll be anonymous.

Are you actually charged for sending flash messages?
