Hi, for a while now I've just been putting up with it, but recently as I've been sending and receiving pictures for nitro car parts and stuff and it's become such a pain in the ass as I have to soft reset to stop the phone from constantly connecting to telstra.mms and trying to send a non-existent MMS every 7 seconds. I know a hard reset would fix it but I really don't feel like setting up the phone all over again and if I backup it would backup whatever is causing the problem too most likely
EDIT: I forgot to mention that it happens whenever I do anything that has anything to do with MMS, like creating a new MMS to put pictures into, or pressing send via MMS after I take a picture.
Has anyone had this happen before?
Any help very much appreciated.
Aaron.

i hate when my text messages get deleted and every time restart or shut my phone off my text messages for the past month or 2 get deleted... how do i fix this!!?
Please tell us what device, and which Rom you are using.
It's hard to tell what is wrong without the proper information.

Hi:
After Froyo update my texts no longer send. To me, everything appears normal, sends normally etc, but the recipient never receives them. I am receiving sms normally though.
Any thoughts? I'm desperate to get this fixed.
Thanks so much!
EDIT: MMS seem to work fine, it is only standard sms which do not work.
Anybody? Any suggestions at all would REALLY be appreciated.
Thanks again!
thats weird, mine in ok after the update. but before I update to froyo, I factory data reset my phone. did u try it?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Check the message center number, I use the aosp mms.apk so im not sure how to do it on samsung mms.apk...att has a device tutorial on their website, might be able to use it and find out...I use to work tech for att and 99% of the time if you are able to receive but not send, its the msg center number...its something like +13123149810 ..if I remember correctly (might be wrong but check)
EDIT
here try this ... http://www.wireless.att.com/answer-center/solutionDisplay.jsp?solutionId=KB115194
EDIT 2
also make sure its not the recipients fault, (problem with their network..etc..try sending a sms to yourself, and try sending to different people on different networks) ..its probably the msg center number, but just to make sure...

My wife was having a similar problem after upgrading to Froyo, but only when sending to certain contacts. Not all. We ended up noticing that some of her contacts numbers looked like +xxx-xxxx. When we added a 1 after the plus (so +1-xxx-xxxx), it started sending correctly. Kinda weird, but it worked for us. So check your numbers and maybe either remove the + or add a 1 before the area code and see if that works.
You can try taking out your SIM card, putting it onto an older ATT phone. Send the it a message and make sure you receive it , send one as well. Then put the SIM card back into the other phone. This method worked for me when I had similair issues.
Take all parentheses and dashes out of the contact numbers - 8001234567
Trust me, it will work.
If all of that fails, swap the sim card with a friend. See if texting works with his sim card. I know it sounds weird, but my daughter had a similar problem with her samsung phone. It turned out to be the sim card.
Hi Everyone:
Thanks so much for your replies. Sadly none of them seemed to do the trick for me.
I am going to try a hard reset, since nothing else seems to work. I just haven't had time to re-install everything, so I haven't done it yet.
Thanks again!
PS: If that fails, is there a way to re-flash the froyo update from AT&T, I originally flashed through Keis mini, but it will not let me do it, since I am now up to date as far as it's concerned.
Hi Again:
I just discovered that sms do send if I use Handcent, or any other 3rd party software to send them.
Is there a was to re-install the stock messaging app only?
Thanks!
Hello,
I have a problem with my messages app, sometimes it completely crashes :
Here are the symptoms :
- I have the messages list, but when I want to open one, I have the "loading.." but nothing happen
- Sometimes when I want to send a message, it doesn't work. I push the send button, the sending windows appears something like 300ms but my message isn't sent
- And recently, when I configure to see only 1 line of preview, after a crash it set it back to 2.
Each time I have to turn my phone off and on again to make it work again
I have tried other apps like handcent and goSms, I tried a factory reset but the problem remain..
My phone is rooted and i have a custom rom (the probleme was here before i rooted it, I though a new rom might resolve it and after 3 nothing has changed)
I'm starting to think it's hardware.. in this case I'll try the warranty..
Thanks for your help
ps : English is not my mother tongue, sorry if there are mistakes
Have you tried changing to another radio image maybe it's caused be signaldrop or something like this?
Here you can get a another one.
Btw, which is your current?
Edit:
Btw, apps like gosms,.... can't solve your problem, they're set up on the build in SMS app and only provide a different user interface
Thanks, might be good idea
I have 20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M
At first I didn't upgrade it because it seems dangerous and, as some says it is rarely necessary. But in this case, I might consider it
Okay so I have flashed both the PAC-Man and Paranoid Android rom. Everything works how it should, besides the known bugs (if any). My problem is that every time I want to send an MMS, a picture message. It takes a couple second then it just says "message not sent" Invalid Destination Address" and my message can't be sent. I restore a touch wiz rom and I can perfectly send messages and receive as well. I see people in the respective thread for each rom, and I haven't seen one complaint about this problem. I have googled this and I have found nothing besides people suggesting that maybe the number has to have all 10 digits in the contact. (ex: 213-456-7890). But how the hell does it work on Touch Wiz but not on AOSP. Also when I get to the welcome screen right after I flash the rom, it says activating phone, it just hangs there saying waiting for service to connect for like 5-10 minutes. Then it says it couldn't connect and to find a place with better service. After that I can set everything up, I can make calls,send messages and browse the internet with my 4G except send picture messages.
I really want to go over to aosp but I send allot of picture messages so this is the only thing stopping me. And yeah I'm wiping clean in recovery and everything (I would flash every rom back when I had an Og Evo 4G so I'm an expert flasher. Lol)
If anyone else experienced this or knows how to solve this can you please give me some advice or suggestion on how I can get this issue solved. I would really appreciate it very much. Thanks in advance
Anyone?
Basically what happens is I get old texts from previous conversations as if they were new. They will come in randomly but tend to follow the sequence of the conversation, so it basically replays the conversation but slowly over the day. Seems to affect group chats more. It makes following conversations very hard since they are full of old texts that are not relevant but they show up as new. Also annoying to keep getting notifications when I'm actually waiting for a text only to see that it's an old text that I got days ago.
Current phone is Google Pixel 4A with CalyxOS, but I've also tried Graphene OS and had the same issue. I've tried the stock app as well as QKSMS. I did not get the issue with Signal (using as SMS client) but they dropped support for SMS, so this started back again as soon as I switched off Signal. I even tried putting the sim card in my old phone (stock android) and it's still doing it! This part is strange to me because when this problem first surfaced, doing this did fix the problem.
How do I make this stop or begin troubleshooting this? Nobody in my contacts is having this issue so trying to convince them to switch to another messaging system is kind of futile, this is my problem. I am starting to wonder if I should just get an iphone like everyone else because it just works, but I really hate the closed nature of apple ecosystem.
I was thinking of looking into how to do app development and modify an existing open source client so that it ignores texts that have a send date older than 24h, but before I do that, is there already a text client for Android available in the F droid store or as an APK that would have such a feature?
So this is not just group chats like I thought. Starting to get old texts I got from single conversations now. Even pictures get resent. These show up as new texts, though they still have the original send date. This will at least make it easier to filter these out.
Anyone have an ideas how to make this stop? Driving me insane. I really don't want to have to write my own app.
Anyone? This problem is driving me insane. It started happening with a vengeonce again. I am being bombarded by old texts that I already got days ago. It's just playing out the entire conversation over the course of a few days. Have to put the phone in airplane mode to make it stop otherwise the phone is just lit up non stop with old texts coming in.
At very least is there some kind of logging of sorts I can enable that would help me better troubleshoot this?
Inreally dont know but i Remember this happened to me sometime ,maybe Just try a factory reset or change rom , i dont know
I tried several roms, resets etc. While it was happening I even put the sim card in another phone and it started doing it on that phone too. It's also not a carrier issue since I'm the only person having this issue. I've also tried all sorts of text apps. The only one it didn't do it with was Signal but they dropped SMS support, which really sucks.
