@Maryj

I used Google Translate to find the meaning of your message. Kindly post your future questions/feedbacks in English so we can assist you, this is an English based forum.

Open your Messages app -> tap on the 3-dots icon on the top right corner -> Settings -> Advanced -> Enable "Get SMS delivery reports".

Hope I understood your question correctly after translation.

No, in the xperia z1 from Bouygues there is no option, is this due to a new email application ??

I do not think the new Google messaging app allows delivery reports. I have the same problem with my xz1c and I'm with Vodafone UK. It worked perfectly well with my z3c which had the Sony messaging app.

I hope that Sony will go back to their own messaging app, which was far superior. I sometimes also have difficulty reading messages with the new app because the text has white lettering and some of the background colours are flourescent and there is no option to change this. With the old Sony app the background colour was set by what theme colour you set.

That's really strange from Sony to ignore that Nokia 3310 feature! I'm so upset...

Seems like the Advanced menu of the Messaging App differs for the firmware customization. On my German single SIM XZ1 i have the switch "Get SMS delibery report", but other 2 menu points are missing: Enhanced features and Wireless alerts

Perhaps use a different SMS client?

If you really need delivery notifications and it is not supported by your current firmware, then this might be the best way around it...

Thanks Volente and Duri, It looks like Delivery reports, Wireless Alerts and Enhanced features are not supported in the UK.

Thanks also Gregoryopera, I may give OKSMS a try. Hopefully it will work ok with Oreo.

A quick update on this thread. The option to get SMS Delivery Reports has appeared in the last update, 47.1 A.12.34, (XZC) and it is working. Hopefully it is fixed in all regions now.

I'm in the UK and still no update, btw, if supported in other clients it still works but not for the pre installed messages app obviously.

Try the Textra app.
