Hey Guys, first time posting...
My Fuze has been great, except when it comes to sending and receiving sms messages... I can't!!... and if I go Start/Messages none of my original text messages from my Sim are there.
It makes me think that the phone and sim card aren't communicating properly?... although I can receive and make calls... could it be something that needs to be changed in the registry? I have installed PHM Registry Editor but don't know what I need to change.
Also, I have TouchFlo on the phone and when I slide the menu tab to messages, I can see new messages that I have received (yes that's right, I receive msg's through touchflo, but no other way!), and they are stored on my phone and not my SIM! AND it doesn't notify me when a new msg comes in which is very annoying!! And the same problem... I can't send messages
So in summary, I think the texting side of the phone it not correctly setup and needs to communicate with my SIM card.. I assume it is a registry change that needs to be made?
Please help...
Thanks, Seireon

I have the same problem and emailed ATT, their response was that if the SIM that I have is 3G it should work fine on the phone. I need to call tech support with ATT to see if they can troubleshoot, as I will not exchange the phone due to some investments in it already like invisble barrier. If there is a issue with the SIM that I should be aware of please continue this thread as I know that there are many in the same hole. Thank you.
more info
Spoke with ATT CS the sim card has to be matched to your phone in order for it to work properly, I can send and receive mms and sms messages now.
ok same problem again sms, stopped working,
new developments I have been able to figure out that the problem is associated with the media net connection. once media net has established a connection, sms stops working. I have been unable to send multimedia messages, what I will try next is to try by flashing another ATT/Cingular ROM to see if the issue disappears, if it does then is a software issue, if it does not disappears then is a hardware issue and I'll have to change the phone for another.
I'll post in a few hours.
Í've been having the same problem with my phones. Every 3-4 weeks I will lose the ability to sms. I go to att online chat support and they reset my phone. I believe it is related to att's account systems because it happened once before I got the fuze and it occurs on every phone on my account. Ít's getting to be a hassle to swap my sim into my "dumb phone" to call att for a resolution. I might have to get the pda plan so I can gripe about it more.
Ok I have PDA plan.
Flashed the following ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466219
Everything is working like a charm. I opted to flash that custom ROM because of its great reviews and apparent lack of issues. I'm still testing it, but so far is all good. I'll update if issues regarding this thread come to light. Thank you.
Having the same problem
Same problem here, although I can send text messages, my picture messages are hit and miss (miss in the beginning). ATT had me go in get another SIM card and do a hard reset... this kind of fixed it... now I can send/recieve sometimes.
I'm interested in hearing if the new ROM fixed this in the long run (not just for the first few days).
Hey,
got the same problem aswell now!
Flashed the same ROM, and now I can't send any SMS anymore. Before the flash I was able to (flashed from stock)
Would love to hear if you got it work! I'd like to know the solution!
Thank you

4 days of testing and still working perfectly, if you have issues with sms, or voice mail, please check that you have the right numbers on the Voice Mail and Text Messages services, at
Phone, Options, Services. For Att in US they should be the following:
Text Messages Service Center: 13123149810
Voice Mail: ""write your account cell phone number""
Hope this helps. Thanks.
i had this problem when i first got my fuze.. sometimes the touchflo messes up when installing and a hard reset solved my problem..
Update, no problems so far everything is working like a charm. Thanks.
still have that same problem
i lost the ability to send or receive sms after i flashed my phone for the second time.
first time from stock, did rre fuze 4.5 special edition.. sms worked like a champ.
second time changed to romeos and things stopped working for sms altogether. weird thing is i can do that whole call "get numbers used" in my contacts, and it will text me how many minutes i have.
i cannot send nor receive any messages. iam getting frustrated with this because no one really seems to have an issue.
i just did two hard resets, flashed to rre fuze 4.5 special edition, and still cannot get anything to work.
i read somewhere that turning 3g off worked. it did not.
my voice mail and text message service reads as follows
text messages service center: +1 (312) 314-9810
is it supposed to read like that or what?
please advise.
Problem
I'm having the same problem with SMS, I can't send or recieve any pictures, audio files through messages, nor can I recieve or send bluetooth files once connected to another phone via bluetooth, does anyone have a answer to that?
btw I have flashed my phone at least 4 times. different rom versions until i found one i liked. Now i am barely noticing I can't sms
HELP! i dont know what to do anymore :S my phone its not receiving messages, for example i use twitter and test when they send me a message on twitter with my laptop on my phone it wouldnt receive it ! i already did a soft and hard reset! took the sd card! i dont know what else can i do? help please
That happened to me, Its the SIM CARD, Switch SIM CARDS with a friend and check if it sends a SMS or a phone call. Its Most likey that your SIM Card is fried, thats what happened to me. just Go to T-mobile and ask for a new one. they should give you one for free. GOOD LUCK!

It seems to be not related to your phone. Try to search in twitter (e. g. try to send those messages to someone else).
My phone doesn't send text messages. I can call or receive calls and messages from people but not send messages. People say I need a new SIM card but I do not think that is it. Did not mess with my codings, my phone IS rooted, and is T-Moblie SGS 4G. Help?
Check your APN. If it's right get a new SIM.
Sorry. I am a n00b at this. How do you check APN and how can I tell if it is right?
system settings>more>Access Point Names
Google TMOB APN and see if they match. And google is a noobs best friend. lol
I posted this in the N00B question thread but I was told to make a new thread.
So my friend got an Unlocked Atrix 2 and she is using it on T-mobile. When the sim is inserted she can make phone calls and send text messages but it says the sim card is full and it wont let her import the contacts from the sim card to her google account. In fact it says there are no contacts but that is definitely not the case because if you put it into the old phone they all show up. That being said I found a thread that apparently has the answer but I don't know what exactly I am supposed to do. Am I going to have to root the phone so that I can modify the XML system files?
Thread with supposed answer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103967
I since rooted the device just so that I have the ability to do more but the Atrix 4G thread was of no help. I don't know what they did in there to get it to work. Anyone have any ideas?
Why don't you use the old phone to sync contacts with Google, then login with the same Google account on the new phone and sync again.
Sent from my MB865
Haven't really found US users for this phone. Band coverage looked good (a lot better than some Xioami's that are readily in America), and I got a pretty good deal on a new one.
SMS messages aren't coming through though. They've all sent fine, but most don't come through. Twice I have had the phone suddenly receive a ton of ones I knew I missed at once- when I tried to back up my text messages, and then randomly while sitting on my desk at work today.
I have T-Mobile and have tried multiple SIM cards, checking the APN settings (which will not switch to manual for some reason but look correct), tried another SMS app, and all in all spent 3-4 hours either at a T-Mobile store with clerks trying whatever they could, or on the phone with T-Mobile support. The next thing I'll be trying tonight is putting my SIM in another phone, and if things work, then doing a factory reset on this one.
It's looking like I may have to sell the phone at a loss and move on, but I thought I'd ask here first if this is something that the community might have a say on. Thanks in advance if anyone has anything to try!
I have the phone running on T-Mobile without an issue. APN settings are picked up automatically. They should only be needed for MMS (not SMS) anyhow.

The May security update fixed things for a couple of days- now I'm back to not receiving SMS messages. I guess I'll try a factory reset at this point...?
EDIT: Factory reset did nothing. Attempting an SMS backup did nothing either this time.
Any settings you can remember changing evbenev that might affect SMS or network connectivity? Anything you had to have T-Mobile do on their end?
