[Q] Can't Send SMS - Samsung Infuse 4G

I have seen a few other people have this problem, but I can't seem to find a solution... with my carrier anyway.
I am unable to send SMS messages. I can recieve - I just can't reply or create my own. Keep getting message failure. I am running MIUI 1.10.21 on Rogers.
Ideas? Did I miss a previous post?
Thanks!
PS - great rom... usually run CM7 - but having data issues with rogers.

Got it! SMS Centre number was wrong. For my fellow rogerarians... your number is +17057969300. Apparently the plus is a must.

I used gosms for a while. I really like the features, but whenever I would restart my phone, it would resend some messages to a few people once in a while. Really annoying! I just switched back last week to handcent

Google voice texting miui 1.5.6 rc8b

Hi just installed clean 1.5.6 rc8b, came from serendipidy 2.2 froyo. Im loving miui, but I can't get Google voice to send or receive text messages and make calls through Google voice apps. I make it through the gv install process just like normally and after finishing it fetches the last text and then fc's. I have enabled permissions for 3rd party apps in the phone settings and now I'm out of ideas. I have tried reinstalling the gv app. Can anyone confirm gv working on 1.5.6 on captivate? Thanks in advance for any help.

Several have reported on xda, miui android forums, miui us forums. It spans all devices on the latest build. dont take my word on it if you like

Thanks. Figured out how to make and receive calls using gvoice callback, just no texts yet.

which rom u use?stock or some custom?give us more details.
ROM: Hyperion v2.0
GB: 2.3.5
Sense: 3
Kernel: Hyperion v1.2
Radio: 20.28I.30.05AU_3850.06.02.03_M
I send messages to all people without problem, but my friend with Desire also flashed with supernova receive messages from all, but from me he don't get them right, just receive random letters of what i wrote.
I downloaded Handcent SMS app, and that way i can send him messages without this bug/problem.
So i dunno if the problem is mine since i send to myself and others ok, or if it's him with his rom, since he send also good, and receive good from others.

[CM7] Share contacts

Hey guys I've been keeping the question to myself for some time now, but after quite some time... maybe I should ask after all.
I've been using infuse 4g w/ CM7 for a while now, and i just realized that there are no means to share contacts through text message. The best alternative I had was to install an app calledShare contacts via SMS , but I thought of asking... is the contact sharing through SMS is not there by default?

Group SMS / Group Text Messaging

I can't believe android doesn't have this feature down pact. I'm hoping its just me.
Is there a way to send a text message to multiple recipients and when any of them reply it shoes up in the same thread and not as its own seperate sms??? This way, you can "reply to all" the recipients and have an ongoing chat with all the SMS recipients in that thread.
Not sure if I am explaining the problem correctly, so if you get what I mean, feel free to elaborate.
I'm hoping there is an app or something to help with this primitive issue.
Also, I have tried a bunch if apps. I don't want to have a seperate number for texting or have to register for a service or anything out of the ordinary. Just want to be able to do group texting with my friends using my own number.
Thanks!

I use whatsapp for this kind of functionality. Similar technology as iMessaging in iOs and bbm in blackberry (duh)
Yes, I use what's app also and it works great! But I am trying to get this to work for the stock SMS in the Android OS like most other phones and OS's.

No you will need to use a 3rd party app link handcent SMS. The stick SMS app doesn't have this option. Even the 3rd party apps are still working on the feature as its not used by the vast majority of users.
Yea, I use Go SMS Pro and its great, but even that and Handcent can't handle group messaging. I thought (was hoping) the issue was me and not with the Android OS.
Its just the weirdest thing that such a great system can't handle group SMS.
Anyone else that may have found a way??

Handcent has a new update out that is supposed to work. I dont know as I dont know anyone that uses it so have not been able to test myself. Android was made to be all the basics and anything more they left it up to 3rd party apps. Its all about people developing things for it like a linux system.
Do a search for the handcent update and in the last few posts will be a link to the version for group texting
Good point! That's what I love about android. But its still very weird that this hasn't been implemented.
Anyways, I will re-download the handcent app and give it a try again. Buy I remember seeing this "update" and also remember it not working correctly.
Thanks for the update. I will post if it works ...

This feature is implemented in stock ICS sms app ... you dont have to use any third party app if you use ICS

It is not. In the stock ICS sms app. It is stated flat out in the AOSP code that it is not there. That is why 3rd party apps have to be used for the feature like the iphone.
Yes, it is not a stock ICS feature. I have two friends on iphone that are sending me group text and it is rather annoying to receive separate texts instead of having it grouped together.
having the same need
i'm having the same need..... anyone?
Also want this...looking for an option that doesn't require everyone in the group to be using the same app for messaging, Android/iOS combos, etc.
I have Handcent installed, but there is zero documentation that I can find regarding their recent updates to their Group text feature.
What I want is I send a message to a group, and all replies go to everyone in the group. Likely not going to happen across SMS apps/platforms.
What I'd settle for is I send a message to a group and all replies go back to that group conversation in Handcent. However, if someone in that group later (next hour/next day) sends me a text as a separate conversation I want that to come in on it's own, not in the group.
Yes! This is what this thread is all about.
This kind of functionality should be standard (especially for android).
The oldest blackberry I had would even do this. I can't understand why is seems difficult for someone to develop.

with go sms no prob.
Apparently the new update claims that it has it. I got it and tried to group text with android and iPhone users and it still didn't work. Did it work for you? Did u do something special (other then turning the feature on in the settings)??

Been trying to figure this out for the past year. everyone group sms i've tried. same thing. going to try this group sms. will let you know.

A friend of mine has a droid on Verizon and it was working the way OP described. It's called Verizon Messaging, can't verify i'm on Sprint.
I've had this same issue for about a year now. My friends have the Droid Bionic, and they can do group texting just fine from the stock SMS app. The text goes out in the group thread, and the incoming texts that have that same group of cell numbers go into the group thread.
But on my previous Droid X, this did not happen. And it didn't work in the GoSMS app for the longest time either. But GoSMS did recently add that feature (MMS texts to a certain group of cell numbers goes under the group thread). It did not work perfectly though. Each group text I received would make a notification sound twice: once when the text was received from the person, then again when the text was moved to the group thread. Annoying, but it worked.
Now, I just got the Samsung Galaxy S3 on Verizon, and I totally expected it to work perfectly with group texting. But I was wrong.
So I'll go through and try to figure out if GoSMS has fixed the double-notification problem yet or if Handcent or another SMS app will work with this. How frustrating!
If you use GroupMe it works perfect you can even add like a name to the group for what you're talking about etc. The other people don't even need to have the app it works as a regular sms as well but everyone can see the replies. I've used and it works great!!
I'm using go sms and the group texting works fine but every response I make basically gets repeated back to me and shows up in the group conversation. Does this happen for anyone else? How do i make it stop?
