I’ve known about this issue for some time affecting the Sony Ericsson P1i but never published the article. Sending a SMS from a pre-paid account with insufficient credit creates a error report loop that is very difficult to escape as new error report messages flood the Inbox.

This SMS rejection flood bug affects the latest Australian firmware revision for the Sony Ericsson P1i, I would expect this to occur across other regional firmware releases too.

The only way to cease the incoming error report flood is to:

1. Open Messaging
2. Open Messages > Draft (scroll to the left of the Messages menu item 2 times)
3. Delete the message or assign it as a Draft
