Check your APN settings are correct, sounds like you are missing something.

The aPN settings are ok. The problem looks that it's in the application. When I press send, the sms don't show up in the screen or there wasn't sended.
Just in case I deleted all the APN settings, and reinstalled all again, but the problem persist.
It's possible reinstall only the sms app?
The rom it's LMY48M.

Try installing Handscent or chomper and see if you get the same result. If your using the stock messenger, you can disable it and uninstall the updates but not uninstall the app.

In your apn settings check to make sure you have the correct mms proxy and mms port, also check your apn type mine is default,mms,supl but best to google the settings for your provider

Yes, the APNs are ok. I have two. One for Internet and another for MMS. I did a "Reset to default" and the information for each APNs are the same as the provider.

I had few problems with sms before as well and I just installed a different sms app (like Google Messenger) and made it default one. Everything worked fine after and it usually even looks better.

I can't see it being the kernel, I was running the same one but I flashed back to the stock one. Never had a problem sending sms on either though to be honest. Did you check your providers website to make sure it isn't on their end? Also can you receive texts?

Yes, the most strange it's that I can receive sms, for that reason today I realized of this issue. I received a sms and when I was to reply, I couldn't.
The kernel it's stable. I used it before and I could send a sms.

I hate to say it but maybe factory reset? clear both cache... if that isn't it..... reflash with stock kernel and see if that does it..... just dont flash userdata so you dont loose anything.... it sure sounds like a settings problem though... who is the provider?

Are you using Hangouts? I had this problem and then switched over to Messenger and its all good now. Might be a totally different issue, but maybe worth a shot.

Yes, I think so, but I don't want to jaja. I will try to go back to the stock kernel, and if that doesn't work, yes I will do a factory reset.

I disable Hangouts, but the problems still persist. You go to Apps > Hangouts and disable it? o you did something else?

No that is how you do it.

So, it isn't that. neither the kernel. I have to do a factory reset. I will try with a TWRP BackUp, and if does not work, then I will do it.

I did a factory reset, and the problem was solved. Thanks to all!!!!

What apn are you using. If there isn't one, that's your problem.
i727-ucle2-SkY IcS
if you can explain to me what is the apn i will tell you because i do not know what it is

Go into settings and then find mobile networks, then look for access point names (apn) and see if has any in there.
i727-ucle2-SkY IcS
no i dont have any in there
FWIW, I've sent many SMS from an unlocked Android device (Xperia Active) w/ out any APN at all (SMS uses the voice system). MMS is another story, iirc it uses the SMS system as a notifier then data APN to actually download the message.
Is your Note setup to be sending MMS instead somehow?
The APN is going to be different depending on what carrier you have. The best way is is to probably search Google for it.
Thanks you beat me to it lol. I know missing apns can cause weird stuff on some of those prepay, straight talk etc I wasn't sure of the carrier I just about to ask

In paranoid cm9 rom i have two apns

Unable To Receive Text Messages

I've had my Xperia since around February, it's worked flawlessly no problems, but this past Saturday was the last time I was able to receive any text message. My friends still receive my messages, but I myself do not get any of their replies. I'm not sure what the problem may be, everything is stock on the phone, still running 4.3, any ideas?
Are you rooted? If so did you freeze or uninstall the messaging app?

I had a similar problem to that on my Nexus 5. I solved this by going through Settings > Apps > (name of text app) > clear data. If it's a stock app, disable the app and let it revert to factory version. Then re-enable it. Since I was using Google Voice, I got my texts back. I'm not sure with yours...make a backup just in case.

Yeah, it's the default SMS service, I'm not sure the root cause, thinking of taking it in so they can run a diagnostic.
Will try that and do a backup just to be safe, thanks for the advice!

Texts not sending / receiving.

So recently, most of my texts haven't been sending /receiving. It's pretty random, and sometimes it works, but the last couple of days it's been really buggy.
Anything I should try?
What messaging app are you using? Have you altered the APN settings at all? Is it SMS? MMS? Both?

using the default SMS app. NO, haven't messed with anything.
Besides rebooting your device, you could call T-Mobile ask them about it. Could be a network problem
happens ALL the time for me in nyc over the last two months. what fixed it for the most part for me is switching to 2g/3g and forget LTE. :-/

Yeah it could just be a network problem. I was having issues the other night with MMS (serious lag and then a flood of incoming messages). Hope you can get it worked out!

Messages App Crashing

Hi Guys, Hopefully there is an answer to this... everytime i send and sometimes when i receive a sms message and then close the message app is comes up with Unfortunately, Messages has stopped.
So far I've tried factory reset(twice) and wiping messages data. Is there something I'm missing??
cheers
Seems there is no fix... using GO sms app now.

If you have it, turn off enhanced messaging in settings.

What carrier are you on? What messaging app do you use?
Those questions have to be answered before you can receive help.
You might have to modify your APN settings to send MMS messages.

Are you running stock 5.1 or computerfreeks version those both worked no problem on straight talk for me but any of the Roms like cm or RR need the APN reset the settings are posted somewhere in the forum I can do some digging and look or repost them if that's the case. So what software are you running and we can continue trying to figure this out. And I assume you have a Verizon towers straight talk sim and are not a GSM sim
stock 5.1....
just flashed su4tl-44-twrp.zip and think it fixed it

So this is a screen shot of my APN on straight talk running modified 5.1 check and see if yours is the same I am at work right now but I will try and flash to stock and double check the settings with it. Also what messenger app are u using. I never could get the Verizon messenger to work for me I had to use the standard msg program and make sure to check the settings there to make sure it's set for sms
exactly the same and using same messager
only other problem is periodic pop up spam
