Receive but not send text? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6

Hey guys, for the last two days my phone will receive texts fine but as soon as I go to send a text it says message failed. Everything else on the phone works just fine. Any ideas? It randomly happened, no new downloads, no tweaks. I'm not rooted. It was working at 6:45pm on Saturday and when I went to go send a text at 7pm it wouldn't go through. It was in my pocket the whole time.

I got it. The "message center" number somehow got deleted.

How did you get the message center # to manually input it?

SMS not working - help?

Hi all...
I was wondering if people more experienced could help me with a strange problem.
I can't seem to send or receive sms'es. When I send an sms, nothing happens, and the message just sits there in the "Outbox".
When I send an sms to myself (from another phone), the phone WAKES UP, but no message shows up. So obviously the phone is receiving the message but it's not showing up? Maybe it's being blocked somewhere?
It was working fine before 2 days ago, and the only thing I can think of which I've done during the past 2 days was set up push mail with Exchange 2007. Would this affect things?
I've checked my settings, sms is set to send via GSM and the service center number is correct.
Also to confirm - I've tried hard-reset and the phone received sms'es fine.
But as soon as I reload my backup, it no longer receives/shows the sms'es being received. So something is block the sms from showing up. What program/setting would it be?

SMS Messaging Time

When i receive a text message, my phone shows that it was received 5 hours earlier. For example, if i have a friend send me a text to try it. I recieve the text at 9PM but on my phone it says i receive it at 4PM. Does anybody know how i can resolve this issue?
This CAB works, it was an update from my carrier.
enjoy!
Cool, it worked.
Thanks alot, jbarns!

Text message not sent. Try again? When it did send

I have been having this problem. In low signal areas when I have one, sometimes even two bars this will happen. I try to send a text message and it says message not sent and puts a link for me to try again. The thing is sometimes (perhaps every time, I'm not even sure) the message actually did send. I discovered this when someone told me I send them multiple messages sometimes. Do I have some kind of auto retry message program in addition to the regular retry prompt? Does anyone else have this problem?

Just don't send again,
I think if it hasn't asked you to place your message in the drafts folder than it will automatically send the message again.

Nope windows mobile never automatically sends again upon failures (the old Palm OS did... if you, say, sent an SMS message right before entering an elevator/lift, and you lost connectivity, it would AUTOMATICALLY resend the message once you exited the lift and got connectivity back).
I usually send it later. You have to do it manually though.

"verify sms center settings are correct" error

i've done some searching for the past few hours and cant find a solution to this problem so either i suck at searching...which is probably it...or my phone is just acting retarded...which could be it too haha.
i can't send text messages to (so far) only 1 contact in particular and it started last night. i was on ZeroXd-5.0r3 for about 48 hours or so, not having any problems with texting, until late last night. i try sending her a text saying goodnight, and instead of a response from her, i get an error message saying i need to "verify sms center settings are correct" and it never actually re-sends the message no matter how many times i tried. this morning i get home from dialysis and flash zeros new 5.1 release to see if that fixes the issue. no dice.
*my service center number is correct as far as i know - +12063130004. (i dont know what other service center settings there are to change, if there are any, im always down to learn new things! )
*2 other contacts who are also on tmobile received messages.
*3 other contacts from different carriers also received messages.
*the same contact i had this problem with last night who is also on tmobile, still wont receive messages, even after going to 5.1
i've done some searching and don't know what else to do as far as troubleshooting goes. id like to stay with hero and not have to go back to a cupcake build to see if that works but that's what i'm considering...just as another option.
anyone have any input as to how to fix this issue? i would greatly appreciated it!
**fixed the issue** all is good now =]
