I have a motorola i886 which is a weird sorta-android phone with no touchscreen... Anyways, I managed to figure out how to root it but now I have another problem.
For some reason whenever I try to send a text message with anything other than the built-in messaging app, it will immediately fail to send. (they all get 'message failed to send' or 'message not sent' errors immediately after I try to send a message) I have tried chompsms, gosms and the quick reply feature from sms popup and they all fail. They can all read incoming messages OK but can not send for some reason.
Is this maybe some kind of permissions issue? In the manage applications menu it says that they all have the send_sms permission...
Does anyone have any idea of anything else I can check or try to get them working? I am kind of thinking that it may have something to do with the fact that this is such a strange phone and a weird modified android...

Hi all...
I was wondering if people more experienced could help me with a strange problem.
I can't seem to send or receive sms'es. When I send an sms, nothing happens, and the message just sits there in the "Outbox".
When I send an sms to myself (from another phone), the phone WAKES UP, but no message shows up. So obviously the phone is receiving the message but it's not showing up? Maybe it's being blocked somewhere?
I've checked my settings, sms is set to send via GSM and the service center number is correct.
Also to confirm - I've tried hard-reset and the phone received sms'es fine.
But as soon as I reload my backup, it no longer receives/shows the sms'es being received. So something is block the sms from showing up. What program/setting would it be?
After installing slick, palringo, taptapsms, incoming sms not stored
I noticed the day after installing IM client, named slick, palringo and opening tapsms, i cant see my incoming sms after it comes..
it shows the notification 1 message unread, after i open it, i just see the history of sms of the same sender got bold, but only with old message, theres no new sms.. ( cant find the new received sms )
I've reset the phone, unplug the battery, its still the same..
anyone have a clue ?
I used WM 6.1 on my XDA IIs
Thanks.
Are there any system, application or activity logs available for G1's with root access?
I'm having problems sending MMS, they all just go to the "could not send" list, and I really would like to know what keeps the messages from being sent. Are there any logs I can look at to start digging for clues? Any 'debug' mode or similar?
The problem itself I have described in this thread:

My g1 tells me mms does not send and it resends them everytime auto. The prob is, it says doesnt send but the recipient gets it. So they get a lot of mms off me
I also have problem to send MMS I can recive but not send
hey,
Since a few days im having problems with my messages inbox.
Because when you send a message to a contact you can see what messages you have send before right ? so it looks kinda like a conversation and you can scroll back to the first message you have ever send.
Now im having a problem because when i send or recieve a message it doesnt show.
I do get a notification that someone had send me a message but i cant find it and/or read it. because when i go to that conversation it just shows that the last message was send yesterday and i can read those without a problem it just doesnt show new messages.
I have deleted all my messages and then it works again for the first 5 or 6 messages but then again if i get a message i cant find it in my inbox and it looks like i never got a text.
I've looked into the options and couldnt find anything strange so i was wondering if someone else had problems with this ?
People do recieve my messages though so thats not a problem i just cant read the ones they send to me so it almost looks like my phone only saves a certain amount of messages and after that it will not save my messages anymore.
sorry for my bad english
have you tried another messaging app like handcent from the market it is free and also a good messaging app there is also go sms for free so maybe try theser and see what happens??
I had a problem with the stock msg app going into a continueoues looping resending a text because it was reprtoing that the number was incorrect.
So:
1. I couldn't find this, but is there a way to NOT have it resend on an error
2. If I load on any msg app, is there a way to disable this msg app?
3. any other options anybody can provide??
Thanks
I found this in another phone thread, so I guess this is how to disable the stock if I gho that route..
Open messages and hit menu. Uncheck received notification.
Very strange and anoying. I disabled the stock app, installed handcent set the settings where I thought it doesn't resend on error nd then it starting sending the same msg over and over that the stock one was sending.
FYI - msg is:
2288 error invalid number, please re-send using valid 10 digit number or short code. how can i clear out this msg or have my msg app stop sending it???
update, I did a search and found a number of peiople reporting this problem on other phones but no reported fixes related to this phone. So stuck right now with handcent uninstalled, it continued to resend the stupid msg even with the data off. So back to stock with data off, so NO text functionality at this time unles I can figure out how to clear. reset was suggested on the phone, but that will blow alot of instal apps and data away. so last resort..
EDIT: the last resort didn't work, factory reset and after reboot the d&*n text started up again... I don't under stand how it can send/receive text with no network setup... fyi - I using the phone on a at&t pre-paid network. The 3GS worked great, this phone has issues and thsi is the biggest one.
I've noticed that every now and then when I send an SMS in Hangouts, the app doesn't refresh/scroll down and I can't see the message I just sent. To see it, I need to manually scroll down, and requires me to reboot the phone for it to work automatically again.
Anyone else experience this/know a fix?
