Sms not working? - General Topics

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?
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?

XDA IIs Text Messaging application has disappeared

Hi. My battery discharged and my phone did a hard reset. I have resynced, and everything seem fine, except that my sms / text messaging facility has disappeared. I have even tried restoring an old backup, but to no avail. There is no longer an option to send or receive text messages (sms's). If I go into messages, I only get MMS and Outlook as options (and the pop email account I've set up). I recently installed the latest ROM version 3/10/05 which came out in June. Can anyone help? :?:

Problem sending long SMS messages

Hello,
The last days I'm having problems to send long SMS text messages. Messages which contains 3 SMS messages ends up in a notification that the message cannot be send - and it's dropped in de concept folder. First I thought it could be the number of messages stored on my phone - so i cleared all folders. But the problem remained. Sometimes it works well and sometimes only after a few tries... my friends told me they received partly messages when it gives an error on my phone. Maybe it's a problem with my provider (Mobistar in Belgium) but before it seemed to work well with my Sony Ericson. Does someone have an idea what can cause this issue?
Thanks!

SMS "stuck" in outbox - Windows mobile 6.1

Hi,
Today I found an SMS message stuck in the outbox on my "HTC touch pro", (O2 network).
The message was resending itself regularly, (upsetting the recipient obviously).
I was unable to just delete the message from the outbox and found that it only dissappeared after deleting it from the deleted items folder.
Is this a common problem - has anyone found a way of stopping this happening.
I've only been using this phone for about 1 month but this has not happened previously.
Thanks in advance,
Dave.
Can anyone help with this one??????
PLEEEEEASE!!!!
Never seen this before. Are you using the stock ROM?
Yep- everything as purchased.
No tweaks or upgrades.

Strange problem.
What (precise) ROM & WWE version does your touch pro run?
Does it show multiple copies of the same textmessage in "sent items"?
did the message contain other than simple text?
Like #34 or #*34 and alike sort of formating (34 used as example for any range of numbers)
What I could think of is that the cell provider or phone has some kind of error in which the text sending wasn't completed eg. the cell tower didn't send/ the phone didn't receive the propper "message sent" signal, and the phone simply resend the message.
Did it happen with only one receipient?
Hi,
ROM version is 1.90.206.4 WWE
Text msg was straight forward text - no numbers/characters.
Error only occured to one recipient.
Only one copy of the msg was held in the outbox.
Cheers

I would say it was a fluke, never heard of this before, and I really think it has to do with cell<->phone communication.
Keep us posted if it happens again.

Hi,
I've got exectly the same problem, however the thing I discovered is that my text messages stay in the outbox when I have the regulare GSM netwerkcoverage, as soon as I've got 3G or HSPDA receive they are being transferred, my textmessage settings however say they have to be transfered by GSM.
I've got a SE X1 on stock WINMO 6.1 build 19608.1.2.60
Nobody formiliare with this problem? (excue me for my bad English)
Me too. Can't edit the message, can't delete it, can't move it. Keeps sending to the same recipient everytime I open messaging. I've pulled the battery, no change
WM 6.1 pro
CE OS 5.2.19214 Build 19214.1.0.4
ATT tilt (HTC 8925)
Bad form to reply to my own message, but found a tolerable fix
I did a MENU TOOLS Clear Messages
And the second time it got rid of it.
First time hung for several minutes, second time that was the only message left to delete.
This happened to me too today, I was chatting with a friend and she was like why the hell do you keep sending the same message over and over again.
I restarted the phone and no change then I looked in the outbox it is there cant delete cant edit cant move.
However the message is in the deleted items too.
if its not just click delete in the outbox then go to the deleted items and click delete from there it will be gone.
The message somehow links it to both folders like a shadow copy.
Simply that process fixed it.

PS : I was using Wm 6.5 and threaded texting.
Same Issue
Yeah mine are just sitting in Outbox too. I can reply to a message without an issue but when I compose a new message it just goes to the outbox and there isn't a way to send it. Just simple text so no clue why. Any advice?

SMS Unread Count not updating

Recently, my SMS count has not been updating whenever I get a new SMS. It just stays at 0 all the time. Email counts and Missed Calls still work fine. It's just the SMS. Is there a possible solution for this without a hard reset? I've searched but couldn't find a solution.
Thanks.
What phone/ROM do you have?
Also, have you recently changed/updated/flashed anything, i.e. what has changed on your device which may coincide with you losing your sms count
I'm using an i8000 with kunchai's lite rom. I'm not sure when exactly it started but the last few programs I installed were basically wifi remote access and smsserver (which i uninstalled).
Also, I am now unable to send emails or smses from tmail.exe as well. For sending SMSes I have to use SMS chat. Whenever I try and send a new email, it just redirects me back to the inbox.

Problem with inbox messages

hey,
Since a few days im having problems with my messages inbox.
Because when you send a message to a contact you can see what messages you have send before right ? so it looks kinda like a conversation and you can scroll back to the first message you have ever send.
Now im having a problem because when i send or recieve a message it doesnt show.
I do get a notification that someone had send me a message but i cant find it and/or read it. because when i go to that conversation it just shows that the last message was send yesterday and i can read those without a problem it just doesnt show new messages.
I have deleted all my messages and then it works again for the first 5 or 6 messages but then again if i get a message i cant find it in my inbox and it looks like i never got a text.
I've looked into the options and couldnt find anything strange so i was wondering if someone else had problems with this ?
People do recieve my messages though so thats not a problem i just cant read the ones they send to me so it almost looks like my phone only saves a certain amount of messages and after that it will not save my messages anymore.
sorry for my bad english
have you tried another messaging app like handcent from the market it is free and also a good messaging app there is also go sms for free so maybe try theser and see what happens??
