[Q] Unable to Send SMS suddenly

Hi Peeps,
For some strange reason my SGS has decided to stop sending sms. After hitting send the messages just get stuck on "sending"
I have checked the message centre number and the mms setting just in case. I have tried the sim in an old nokia and it texts just fine.
It was having intermittent issues with sms around a week ago, where it wouldnt send a message, so i would send the same one again and then both would send simultaneously. However now its not sending at all.
I am running Froyo.xwjp6 with kernel 2.6.32.9.
I have also tried instaling Handcent SMS but i just get the error "message not sent"
Thoughts on a postcard?
Same here, although trying handcent has allowed me to send, but strangely, will intermittently fail, im sure its a froyo bug.

I managed to fix it. Couldn't be bothered with trying to reflash the modem or even the os, so tried the Privacy-return to factory settings option just out of curiosity. Can't figure out what it did exactly but when it rebooted i had not lost any settings or applications, and all my home screen app shortcuts were still there. The only discernable difference was the lack of gadgets on the home screen, which I had to reinstall.
The important thing however is that messaging worked again. God knows why.
One susipicion I have is that this is due to my usage of Titanium Backup. I installed it when i was running Eclair, and each time i upgrade the OS i use it to restore my old system data and apps. Perhaps some change between Eclair and Froyo's messaging settings is being overwritten by and older version by Titanium. I suspect this as following the above factory restore I tried a Titanium restore and instantly it broke my messaging again. So I did the factory again and got them back. There wasn't really any need to use Titanium as I said before I didn't seem to lose any setting or apps, but did it anyway out due to that old cat's friend curiosity
Give it a go if u dare and see what happens
Let me know how u get on...
Ok so im still having the same problem.is there really noone out there with an idea?

[Q] Why hTC Messaging keeps failing sending Text Messages?

Hi Guys, I'm facing an strange issue on my Diamond2.
hTC Messaging fails to send text messages to some numbers... Not all. Just some. And it says unable to send text message. When you retry, you keep getting this message. But when I just disable hTC Messaging client, everything will go back to normal. So this is not a network problem but this app's problem. The interesting thing is i'm facing this issue recently and 2-3 weeks ago, I wasn't facing this. I'm using hTC Messaging 1.5.2016.2624 which is the fastest one AND AN OFFICIAL UPDATE from hTC!! I was thinking this is 1.8.2019.3733's bug, but when I rolled back to this one, the problem was still. I did hard reset and did format the storage card... No luck and I'm really confused...! Any ideas??!

[Q] SMS sometimes sent to an unknown/wrong number?! Extremely strange..

Hi,
this never happened to me before on my Legend.
I'm using handcent sms, but don't know if it has something to do with that, with the OS (used handcent on my Legend too) or my carrier provider.
When I write loads of sms with a friend, it happened already 3 times that suddenly I got a reply from someone completely unknown (unknown number), informing me about that he/she (wrongly) received this sms from me that should have been sent to my friend. My friend then didn't get that sms, although it's correctly listed in the appropriate sms "thread" for my friend's contact and NOT in the new thread created for this unknown number.
Has anyone experienced this before?
I think it's even more strange since this number isn't in my contacts and it's completely unrelated (not just a few numbers swapped, but a completely different carrier).
Has anyone experienced something like that?
This happened to me 2 times on stock Froyo and yesterday on Gingerbread..
Thanks for any help
Max
That's due to a bug with Android itself.
This was fixed with version 2.3.3, so if you get your self a GB(2.3.3) rom, all will be good.
That's strange, I'm already on gingerbread.. still it happened yesterday or the day before.
Handcent is your culprit!
Got myself into a LOT of trouble with the right msg going to the wrong person... LOL
get yourself chomp which is better in this aspect
or use the default app..

[Q] Nik sense 4 Rom problem.

has anyone else had the problem where the rom wont send any texts over 1 message long? Using GO SMS pro, and noticed any texts im sending that are using over 1 message are saying message not sent, then saying it has been sent but the recipent is not actually receiving the message.
any message that is just a standard message seems fine and receiving all messages as far as I can tell is fine aswell. just sending either more than one at once or an extended length message.
any help appreciated!

+1 I too have that bug of not sending messages more than 160 characters
also voice search doesn't work
lockscreen shortcuts magically disappear at times
anyways still its a beta version so let's give NIK some time so that he comes up with an awesome ROM
I had the same problem when i flashed 3.5.. however i updated to 4 and had no problem. If you flashed and reflashed 4.5, you should talk to Nik directly to see if he can find a fix.
Just wait for the update to come ....tooo many bugs

[Q] Outbound SMS messges get stuck marked as sending

Hello,
I bought the Z3C about a week ago and i'm pretty pleased with it. The only issue i'm facing is the fact that all the SMS messages i'm trying to send get stuck and are marked as sending, i don't even get an error in the native Messaging app.
Tried with Textra, and it instantly returns an error about not being able to send the message.
Did anyone else have this problem? If so, did you manage to fix it?
Nothing? ?
