Sending SMS when there is no signal - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I'm running WM6.1 on a Touch HD and am regularly in a location where I have no signal, which occasionally goes up to 1 or 2 bars over a period of a few minutes.
When I try to send an SMS and there is no signal, my text instantly goes to drafts.
Is there any way to get it to attempt to retry for a set amount of time before giving up?
e.g. try every 30 seconds for 10 minutes or so.

I'm interested in something like that.

SMS problems

I've noticed that my texts aren't immediately sending. I've only had the phone for a few days, but I had this problem on the stock rom and also on flashed rom's.
For example, I sent a text about two hours ago, but I just checked my messages and the time beside it shows a couple of minutes ago.
Anybody know what's up?
i've never experienced that but have have got the message notifying me that it was unable to send the message and asks if i want to try again. And usually when i do click try again the message pops up a second time and later i find out that the recipient has received the message multiple times.
Have you tried calling your provider and seeing if there experiencing any network issues in your area?

text messages problem

so recently like the past 2 months my phone has had pauses that are rather extended and can be up to ten minutes sometimes where i am unable to access the sms page and i can receive texts but it wont alert me until it seems to catch up.
i thought it may have just been the large amount of texts i had so i decided to just flash a new rom and not restore the texts.
then last night after flashing a few hours earlier and having only maybe 40 or so texts in and out it did its pause.
anyone else experience this? or have a fix

Receiving text messages late

Starting two days ago I'm receiving text messages late. For example, let's say it's 12:30. I'll get a text and the time indicator will say 11:59 or something, which would usually be the time I'd receive the text. I'd send a text to that person at say 11:57 and thirty minutes later I'd get their text from two minutes after I sent mine. I hope it's a sprint thing it my area. However if I update my PRL the texts come right after I update it. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Sometimes it takes forever for my texts to send.
Probably a problem with the Sprint network due to maintenance, outage, or something else. This happened to me a couple times last week but things went back to normal after a day or two.

First i would try going to your settings and scroll all the way down until you see system update. Update profile and prl and that should fix the issue. Another way of doing this same update is by going to your dial pad and key in ##update#
I downloaded messenger By : Google on the Google Play store. It seemed to help out a lot more.

Delayed SMS only some contacts?

About a week ago I noticed my messages would say "Sent" but not "Delivered" and I confirmed that they wouldn't get my message until it says delivered. It takes almost the exact same amount of time each message, 2 minutes. I have 3 bars always, usually full service. Strangely enough, this only happens with some contacts. If I text myself, it's also delayed. I cleared my caches multiple times and cleared up storage on my phone. It'll go away for some time, but has come back 3 times now. Is the problem the phone or my service? Or their service? The people it doesn't delay with have my Service Provider, which is Verizon. Pictures will send at normal speed, and send before my SMS as well. Thanks in advance.
