Zusammenfassung:	Methods and apparatus relating to mobile-originated short message services are provided. In an example, a method for improving Short Message Service (SMS) availability by mobile equipment (ME) includes determining the ME has a Fixed Dialing Number (FDN) list, receiving an over-the-air update identifying an update to a Short Message Service Center (SMSC) address (e.g., due to roaming), and automatically updating the SMSC address in the FDN list. The updating of the SMSC address in the FDN list can include adding the SMSC address to the FDN list, with or without replacing another SMSC address. The method can further include detecting that the ME has an FDN mode enabled; transmitting an SMS message using the updated the SMSC address; presenting, via a user interface, a user notification stating that the SMSC address is updated; or a combination thereof.
