On my captivate when i text somone, on my phone it clearly says "sent" but the other person has often told me that he/she has not received anything...
this happens abouy once every 20 texts. i use the stock messaging app that comes with the apex rom.
also another thing that happens is that i get the text 2-3 hours later than when the other person sent it. this happens less, but its still very annoying.
any permanent or temporary(cause i may switch to verizon soon) solutions are welcome. thanks

HI! welcome to xda!.....
what rom / kernel / modem are you using?
how long have you suspected the problem?
have you checked your apn settings? btw what carrier are you? what country are you? might want to fill out your xda user info and signature since you have 300 posts... it would answer some of the questions i had.
the more info we have, the more we can do.
He said Apex, which could mean a few things, but assuming he's on the latest release, that means "DC 4.0 JVS Kernel" and the KC1 modem

ATT does that; I'm presuming that it's because their network is terrible.
I've had this problem with both the Captivate on various ROMs and the Inspire 4G on stock.
I have yet to find a solution, unfortunately.
I had a similar issue when I went to the fasty rom...it ended that the apn number didn't get transferred....just Google it and u find a list of numbers for what ever region your in. Then go to apn settings and manually had the number
, and you'll be up and texting

Hi there folks. I got a Bell Samsung Galaxy i9000M about a month ago or so. Initially, I was very disappointed that Android 2.2 wasn't available. After some digging through these forums, I discovered Doc's Froyo ROM thread and read that some people on Bell had used this successfully. I followed the instructions from his thread (am currently uisng Doc's Froyo v7.6.2 JPO, and my phone is rooted as well). Ever since I changed firmware to Doc's v7.6.2 Froyo versus the original Bell UGJH2 (i believe that's what it was called) Android 2.1, my phone auto rejects all incoming calls.
What happens is that any time someone calls my phone by calling my phone #, my phone rings once, then the call is rejected (the phone I call from says it got rejected), and on my Galaxy S, I lose network signal completely (3G/phone signal) for a few seconds when this happens.
Is this a known issue with the ROM I am using.. do I have some sort of option turned on that I shouldn't? I need some help here. Is this something my phone carrier (Bell) is doing cause I hacked the phone?
To clarify, I am perfectly able to make outgoing calls to phone numbers, and I am able to browse internet with 3G/HSPA just fine using Bell's network. Before I did the upgrade to this Froyo ROM, I was not experiencing this issue. I hope someone here can point me in the right direction, I really need to get this fixed because right now, no one can call me.
Really, no replies? There's no one else that has had this issue? I want to flash my phone to the new-er Froyo JPK3 that's supposed to be for Bell.. anyone have a clue whether that should fix it? What about just doing a factory reset?
i have the same problem, different carrier though, german o2
i think it might be cuz of a wrong CSC
i reflash now and report back
My initial guess was that my ROM is not suited for my phone/carrier.. but since I was able to make outgoing calls, use 3G and send/receive texts, I dismissed that idea. Especially since there were other people using Doc's v7.6.2 on Bell with supposedly success results.
So what I did was I went into Clockwork Recovery Mode, and did a factory reset. Now my phone works fine. Beats me what the problem was. Must've been some app I installed I guess.
i had the same problem. i did what you did. factory reset. then used titanium backup to restore all my apps and system settings. thank God for titanium backup lol.
I happens to me too from the 1st time i flash my phone to froyo.. u need to reinstall the correct csc. After a clean flash insert your sim card then dial *#272*IMEI No.# then choose the right csc of your phone. It will make a factory reset after the installation of new csc.
Hello,
If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. I just flashed cog 3.04 from 2.8. I now cannot send or receive mms messages unless my wi-fi is turned off. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
mms messages are sent over your cell data connection...not sure why it would not be enabling it automatically but that is the problem.
what provider are you with?
My mms stopped working with rogers. Check your apn settings. for some reason mine had 2 letters backwards.
SetTings, wireless and networks, mobile networks, access point names. google your provider apn settings to see what they should be set to.
Edit: didnt read the last bit of your post lol. If it only works with wifi turned off im not sure. I use to have a separate apn for data and mms, but now there is 1 for both, does anyone know if by turning on wifi and disabling your data connection could disable both if your data and mms are both in the same apn? Just a thought...

It is strange, if I turn the wi-fi off, it will send. I am on ATT in West Virginia. I will try to check my settings.
Thanks.
The mms app should enable the data connection automatically to send the message. you need to ask what is up in the rom thread and see if there is a fix.
I tried posting there twice and no one answered my question. I think I may just flash another Rom. I can't post there anymore because of post count restrictions.
It is pretty annoying to have to toggle wi-fi on and off to send a mms. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it, though.
Head over to the ban the person above you thread....or the count to 10,000 one....your restriction will be gone in no time.
I have similair problems. I can recieve but cant send. its been like that since yesterday. just started out of the blue I was running cog.3.2 then flashed to 3.4 no luck. then flashed perception 10.2 and still no luck. going to odin my phone back to stock and go from there. lately my phone has been having problems with reception and sending texts. Its been on going since I flashed to cog 2.8.
I really like cognition, but the bug is annoying! LOL! I am sure he will get it fixed, I just thought I had done something wrong in flashing it.
so as a update, I Odin flashed to stock still no good on sending out text messages. flashed back to cog 3.04 and tried a couple of different modems such as ji1,ji2,ji3,jk6 and still no luck. I'm begining to think something went wrong with my plan or my sim.
Issues with Cognition 3.04
I had installed cognition 3.04 and have been using it for the past couple of days.... the performance compared to conginition v2.8b is faster. Also some issues that i have is my data connectivity keeps dropping.
The other issues that i have is when i have data connectivity on it keeps popping up and displays "call cost" every few minutes where it does not get deducted from my balance. Please let me know how to go about resolving the issue.
Has anyone else experienced these issues.
Try stock or a different rom to see if it persists.
isolated my problem to be a sim card issue. swapped out sim cards with a buddy and all functions started working. called customer service and then got sent to tech support. they also came to that conculsion. visit to at&t and one free sim card, I'm back in business
So, i send texts.. .very very often. And ive noticed that half my texts now dont send :S
Not exactly half but every now and then, (atleast every fifth message), a message doesnt send and i have to manually retry it. Im on Pheonix unleashed rom and using handcent (although the problem still ocured with the stock messaging app)
any suggestions? it really annoys me when i have to resend it
Try different modems
Which one would you recommend? Im a rogers user and pheonix comes with the rogers jk4 modem :S so yeahh
any names on a modem to use would help
Couldn't tell you man, I'm in tennessee I have no clue what kind of reception you'll have up there Jk4 works for me down here. Just try a few make sure it's an i9000 modem though.
Thanks!
Gonna give it a shot
Go to development, look for q4-q1 modem thread (if your mobile, it's under stickies tab in dev). They have all the modems we can use.
Ah! Thanks for the help but i already found that
Hey guys hoping somebody can help me with an issue my friends are having issues with their captivates. They just got them. And they can text anybody no problem sending or receiving. But calling they can call anybody except each other. Everytime they try to call each other it just instantly stops the call. I have a captivate. And but their sim card in mine but it did the exact same thing. Were in canada and I'm on rogers and their on mts. All our captivates are 2.2. Any ideas?

Stock 2.2? and did you try calling another captivate on an USA network?
Yes they are all stock 2.2 via kies
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Rogers captivates on 2.2 have that time stamp issue which may be causing the problem. My friend and i both have cappys and had the same problem till we used this fix. Go into date and time un check manual change timezone to a -3 timezone then manually change the time to the right one
Since many users of Samsung Galaxy S Plus had similar problems i decided to open a new topic.
Short description:
Sometimes when i try to send an sms which has more than 160 characters i receive a notification with "Message not send".
The problem seems to be only when Network Mode is set on WCDMA (or Auto).
Firmware: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9001XXKF8
Network: Orange Romania
Solutions
1) Update to Android 2.3.5+
or
2) Set Network Mode GSM
I have no idea why that would happen, I am starting to believe that Samsung has a poor radio in the i9001. Can you confirm the same in other messaging apps?
I would love to try but I have no SMSs in my plan, Vodafone -.-

I don't think that this bug is related to bad network coverage because first 160 characters are send. I tried sending sms from another network operator (Vodafone Romania), but i had the same results.
Bug also occurs using handcent app.
Lots of people have complained about that same bug here in finland. Different operators. Seems software bug.
2.3.3 to be exact. I never had that problem but i have flashed to 2.3.4.
Got same bug on 2.3.4.
I have had that bug in a 2.3.3 and now in a 2.3.4. It is not happening all the time, but it is present. In a 3G mode of course, in 2G everything is all right.
Eh. This is really stupid.
Software bugs in such an old phone ( for samsung since its close to Galaxy S)
I would understand this bugs at S II but here? .. hOpe we can fix it.
I got this error with internet turned complety off also..
Same

What about 2.3.5 firmware? Had anybody tested?
Some people have realised this probleem seems to be related to phone switching between 2g & 3g. As i don't have this problem...could someone try switching 3g off and then try to send longer sms.
Is this problem related to only android's message program as there's other in market..are they working better??
It's been already established that 3G is causing the problem, but switching 3G off everytime you want to send a text is just plain stupid.

What baseband do you have?
Same bug for many users in germany!
Hi!
I'm from germany and here are MANY people having this problem! (for those who speak german: Take a look at the I9000 or I9001 board at "Android-hilfe.de"). There where many, many, many suppostiions why this happens. The only fact that everybody had is that it only happens in "automatic" and "only WCDMA" mode. It NEVER happens in GSM-only! I thougt it was a german-only bug, as it wasn't mentioned here on this board. I helped myself by closing the data network mode (long press at power button) before sending a SMS. I hope sometime a firmware update will fix it!?!
hey guys, just got word here that the bug is solved with the KPG 2.3.5 firmware rom. so check it out

I have the same sms bug problem like the thread starter and it was resolve after flashing to 2.3.6 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319463)
the sms bug is not
The sms bug(2.3.3) is not a network problem,it is that it converts sms that is over 100 or so caracters ,to mms... and yes 2.3.5 it is sms bug free
ps.heloo,new on forum.
Even 2.3.4 is bug free
Sent from my GT-I9001 using Tapatalk
2.3.5 vodafone romania is not bug free
One might try switching following option from "Warning" to "Restricted"
Messaging -> Settings -> (MMS Settings) Creation mode
In theory, this should prohibit MMS creation and add another SMS body instead no matter which network type (2G or 3G) is selected.
I had it in 2.3.3 and 2.3.5, in 2.3.6 never had it
(And i'm talking about that it doesn't send the message the first time, not about 160 chars)
