I've had this ongoing problem. Some of my text messages are not being received. It is only with specific friends. When I search the problem, I find that is common but I can't find a fix.
I'm running. Rooted early version thunderbolt.
No matter what ROM I run, I have the same issue.
Does anyone know of a solution?

Hi, just wondering if there is a way to get the time and date to show when reading old threaded text messages. The time shows for newer messages of that same day, while older messages only show the date. Any suggestions? Thanks!
BTT...I am in search of a solution to this as well. I occasionally need to go back and see what time I sent or received a text, and it is frustrating to see nothing but the date on older texts.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
While trying out various ROMs, I found the same problem on two ROMs:
sms works fine unless I want to send one to Page Plus for an account status report.
In the "To:" field, as soon as I enter "xxx.com", a quick popup notifies me the sms is being changed to an mms. There seems to be no reason for this as the content is simply "bal" in the title field, then I "send".
Furthermore, the mms freezes during sending and never transmits at all.
with a bit of testing I see that as soon as I enter a (dot) and "c" in the "To:" field, the message changes. It will revert back if I delete those characters.
It is completely unrelated to long text messages(- the only discussions I can find on the subject). It "autoconverts" before I have started entering a message at all.
Has anyone else dealt with this issue? Have I missed a fix for this?
Thanks for any ideas. This is unfortunately a problem on my favorite ROM of all.

Running GSB 1.7 and otherwise LOVE IT!
I've tried many ROMs, and except the stock ROM, mms always locks up with an endless upload- I've come back next day to see that the phone is still 'sending' the mms. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix to this?
A couple of possible clues to the problem:
I cannot include even a partial example below since xda interprets it as an attempt to add a web link in my posting. So I merely spell ampersand in the hope that I can get this question posted. Arggh!
I commonly send a sms to a page plus dealer to get my current account status, and I see that as soon as the phone detects that I am sending a sms to a website (meaning that when I include an ampersand in the "To:" field...), the phone gives me a popup 'converting message to mms'. It 'converts' regardless of any/no content in the sms.
I can send sms endlessly with no problems, so long as I dont include the ampersand in the "To:" field.
I'd appreciate any help with this issue. I love running GSB 2.1 GingerShedBread and some of the other roms, but kindof need sms working properly.
I hope this is in the right forum...
Thanks.

I use my device for work. I coordinate/schedule jobs in which there are many people who can work certain slots. So, I'll send out one text message to about 75-84 individuals. Then the ones who can work reply. Later, I send out another mass SMS advising of remaining slots to be filled.
My issue is this. In the Android code a section checks for the number of text messages send within the last hour. If you exceed 100 messages - then, Android throws an error for every message afterwards within that hour and the user has to select "OK" to send an SMS. So, at times I have to sit there and select "OK" over and over again for several minutes while the over limit SMS's are sent....
I found an old record on how to fix this issue here.
However, this APPEARS to be an old solution. I was unable to find this setting or the table "gservices" in "/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
Does anyone know where this was moved or how to change this setting?
My device is a an LTE Galaxy Nexus.
I'm running AOKP-build 33. But, I would think this setting would be generic to all of the current ICS ROMs.
Thanks for any advice.
BTW - I found some very old posts related to this same issue. Note:
1) Using an app will not address this issue (I use Chomp SMS) as this is coded within Android.
2) Google Voice will not work as it doesn't recognize "groups" for the "to" box.
3) Pulling the battery will just prevent all the texts from going out.
I'm just hoping someone knows where the file/code is located that I need to modify.
All other suggestions will not resolve this issue.
I am using MightyText (and PushBullet) to send text from my desktop. Text messages get sent and the other ends receive them, however the sent messages don't get saved in the message database (they are not in the threads in the messaging app). Anyone has the same problem? Solution?
Thanks!
Same here
Having the same exact problem. Loving this phone but really wish someone could find a solution for this, I tried messing with soooo many settings and nothing.
Anyone?
