Currently running rooted HTC Hero CDMA using Cyanogen mod. $ weeks ago SMS service stopped. I can send but can't receive. I can't access ESPT to reset phone number. Went to my service provider hoping to reset phone number and they can't help. I've also dealt with multiple SMS apps hoping to fix the issue and nothing. I also wiped DAVLIK and CACHE and did a NAND back up and reinstall of custom ROM multiple times and still it doesn't work. How can I regain SMS receive when it doesn't seem to be a handset issue but my provider tells me it is?
A while ago I updated to the latest version of Bad Boyz KK from the previous, and all was right with the universe. One day, I realized that outgoing MMS, Data Profile update, and PRL update all broke at once. I tried every trick in the book, and the only thing that fixed it was a full wipe and fresh install. Now, a few weeks later, the symptoms are back again, and I'd like to know if anyone has a fix for these "m7 data herpes" that keep coming back before I wipe and flash again.
More to the story: since the symptoms have been happening, my SMS recipients have informed me that my texts usually come in as duplicates or triplicates... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm on Verizon, and I have a Nexus 6 I bought through Verizon. My service was constantly dropping out, and sometimes just showed as no SIM in the last few days. But today, I found I was unable to recieve data at one point, even though I had a few bars of service. Then, I was unable to make calls. I also can't hang up after starting a call, I just get stuck in Hanging up. I don't know if I can receive calls at the moment, but is anyone having this issue? Better yet, has anyone had and solved this issue?
I was on AOSiP with Hellz Kernel, and thoght that my ROM may be the issue. I've since reflashed ROMs and kernels with loads of full wipes, all to no avail.
This might be the reason,

your not alone
This just started happening to me a few hours ago on Verizon as well. It happened out of no where and I haven't found any solutions after searching for a few hours.
Ok so i figured i would look for help here before ending up at a t-mobile store with my rooted g4.
My issue is as of yesterday my phone stopped being able to send sms. It receives them fine. And can place and receive calls fine. My bill is paid up and my service is A-OK. I have the same results on cellular or wifi calling. Text gets stuck as "sending". Then never sends or fails. Just stays as "sending" even after rebooting.
I'm running the 10n firmware, rooted and debloated. I have not changed any settings or any apps recently at all. It just sorta stopped.
I have tried:
-removing and cleaning my sim card
-clearing cache
-screaming at my phone
-turning off wifi
-canceling all pending texts, rebooting, clearing cache again
All with no luck. Any advice? Ideas? Theories?
I find myself constantly rebooting when this occurs, which is often.
It's the one disappointing problem with this phone.
Have you tried any other text apps, such as textra or handcent, just to see if it's your messaging app?
gonna try Textra next. Seems to be a popular suggestion.
Had this happened to me too. Tried Textra and it got better but still has hiccups
Tried Textra, Chop and a couple others. None as good as the OEM LG app. I think this phone just has wifi issues.
Ok everyone figured I'd come here to where the experts live. Haven't been here in awhile.
Recently my S8, wifes S8, and our sons S8+ all have the same issues.
The first issue is texts get stuck "sending". This happens with WiFi on or off, with wifi calling on or off, and I even tried changing off LTE to just 4G/3G/2G and even 2g in settings to see if that would help. I'm on the latest firmware from TMO ending in QEF, well we all are.
The other one is apps like FB and others aren't alerting but they will show the number of alerts even after they've been checked. I've reinstalled these apps and the problem persists, and then I can reboot my phone or wifes phone and all the alerts start working again for awhile and then die eventually.
The texting issue though persists and is random when it will hang and when it doesn't.
According to TMO rep at the store it's a bug in the firmware with bixpy that was pushed out, but I frankly don't buy it and figured I'd hit the guru's up here and see if you guys have any thoughts.
Thanks in advance guys and gals....
I too have had the random "texts get stuck sending" issue. I haven't had it in a while though (now that I've said that I'm sure I will).
I unfortunately don't have any suggestions.
I ended up using googles version of messages due to this. Only on stock text app do i have any problems anymore. I also noticed on the stock app that my phone would say "sending" when the other side would actually get it, but it was at random.
You don't have a cellspot repeater or router do you? Last time I had it, my device was hung and needed reboots. Just a thought.
Thanks for the feedback, yes I have a cell spot, but I also have the issue other areas of town too with no real specific place thatbit always happens.
I'm going to reverse back from the qef firmware and see if that resolves things. This has been so annoying, and it just started about two weeks ago.
Thanks again everyone.
I have had the same issue with sending texts too. I have been using the stock messenger app. I may just switch to textra.
Same issue here. A temporary fix, try turning on airplane mode and off. Works for me a times
Also happening to me on the XAA firmware (have unlocked NA variant) with the stock messaging and Google messages.
So I'll ask the question begging to be asked (at least by me): How does one disable this messaging app and use "stock messaging" app?
Thanks in advance....

Just get a app disabler for Samsung from play store like BK Disabler.
If I were you, just download Android Messages. It's simple and fast.
However, I do not recommend disabling stock messaging, unless you don't like getting EAS (Amber/Weather/Presidential Alert)
Having the exact same issues and it's driving me crazy because I really like this phone. I don't get notifications for any of my apps but when I open them I can see the new messages. A reset seems to fix the problem but it only lasts about an hour before it starts doing the same thing. I've tried using different messaging apps but the same thing. And the fact that I don't get notifications for other apps it can't just be a text messaging issue right?
Happened to me for almost 2 months but haven't had an issue in about a week. Called t mobile, they created a ticket and said they'll be working on it. Few days after speaking to them, problem went away.
This has been happening intermitantly for me as well. It's been bad the past three days. I'm currently in coversations with T-mo's engineering team and they seem to be coming up with a bunch of dead ends. It's not a location based thing as it's been happening over a 20 mile radius in the past few days for me. Other people on T-mo network that I'm freinds with or I work with aren't having any problems. I'm wondering if just a fresh SIM card could solve it?
I have data connection although it seems a little sluggish compared to when I originally got the phone. Similar to OP I've tried all the "G's" modes, with wifi calling on, with it off, with cellular network preffered with wifi calling on and off. With Textra, with stock messaging app. I've factory reset to no avail. I've pulled and re-inserted the SIM card to no avail. This is incredibly frustrating for a flagship phone on a network where I've had no previous issues.
UPDATE: T-Mobile sent me a new SIM card and that seems to have cleared up the issues. Not sure if it just hapened to coincide with T-Mo tower fixes or anything else like that in my area but I'm back to normal operation. Anybody else experiencing this I recommend you push customer service to send you a new sim.
my husband and i are having a strange issue where we can message pictures and video clips to other people that don't have the s8, or aren't on tmobile and they'll send and receive just fine, but when we try to send to each other, the first attempt to send fails, but the second attempt goes through?
