[Q] Text Messaging problems

I'm having a problem sending text messages. wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I can receive fine. I can send on WiFi or 2g, not "4g". Curious Picture messages send fine on all networks.
I have used several ROMs along the way. I have a good list of nandroid backups from various back to stock. Restoring any and all exhibits the same.
Tech support thinks it may be a service issue in my area. My son has a myTouch 4g and has no problems texting.
Anyone have an idea?
Is this with the stock messaging app?

Have you tried a hard reboot? Hold volume up + power til your phone reboots. It doesn't delete anything but it. It fixes connection issues for me most of the time.
Good thought. Tried and no go. Interestingly I turned data off and, text messages send. Went to the t-mo store. They guy there took a look at it. He pulled my SIM and put it in their demo unit. My SIM works on their phone. He says "I can get you a replacement but I need to do a factory reset" Sure go ahead. I could tells this guys was a by the numbers guy. I told him sure, then I remembered I'm running Weapons the "weapons" splash and I figured, I'm done. No, he didn't notice. New phone on the way. So I guess I need to revert to stock unrooted when I get the new one.

Lol glad it worked out. Still have to wonder why they won't send ...
It is bothering me. I think I've reformatted everything from within recovery. Flashed a fresh version of Weapons, restored from a very old nandroid, rooted 2.2.2
Just another thing to make me nuts.
I have this issue now as well only on 4g... I went to another rom and all was well the problem came back I haven't downloading anything out of the ordinary so I haven't the slightest clue on why this is happening... gonna revert back to stock if the problem persist.

I also tried the experimental, not sure why it would cause these issues after a full/complete wipe and restore of rom's that I've had no issues with at all when it comes to receiving/sending sms/mms.
did you revert back to a OTA stock, and stock recovery, no root at all? That is my last option which will be tonight probably...
I found a nandroid OTA and restored that. That was stock, unrooted. Then I flashed back the stock recovery.
I flashed several roms prior with no luck. Like I mentioned, perhaps the lg updater would fix what is missing?

I can confirm the same thing happening to me on Weapon and stock GB. Messages will send fine on EDGE and wifi perfectly, but it's hit and miss on 4G.

Pretty sure after i tried the 1.1c hybrid rom:-\
so everyone tried a jboxer rom and it started happening? I like his roms a lot but obviously something is going on here.

Can't regain signal without restarting

Completely stock phone... I never messed with it from day 1.
So here's the thing... everytime I take a subway and after the get out from underground the phone never regains the 4g data icons... the signals are there but it doesnt let me browse the web or use any apps that require a data signal.
Restarting the phone solves the problem...
But at work everytime I go to the basement and come out.. I completely lose the signal and do not automatically regain it once I'm out on the street... this made me miss many calls and incoming texts... I also switched my sum card 2 weeks ago for the newest 4g Sims... it helped for about 2 days.. but now same thing happens all over again..
Any tips?

Try toggling flight mode on then back off.

Did that... it rarely works... but either way... its not good when a phone can't regain a signal... because its in my jeans the whole time... and I get a lot of missed calls due to that... its horrible.
Does anyone else experience this problem with their galaxy s?

If you've always been using stock, then you should try your hand at flashing GB.
Try out some new modems too. It might solve your problem.

Worst Android Moments

Mine was when I was at a former classmates birthday party and then I noticed my phone didnt detect my SIM card, I had to be the center of attraction on the party removing my phones back and taking out the battery, then the SIM card, then putting them back in. When it rebooted, Im glad it re-detected my SIM card. That was totally embarrassing.

Mine was at the time when I was beta testing a new rom...
I had to meet up my school friends...
The rom was working well...till one of my friends switched on wifi bt gps, all one after the other *JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT*
And bam! Force closes everywhere...graphic glitches, weird vibration patterns!
My friend thought he had screwed my phone...
And I had to flash a new rom in front of everyone, when all of us were supposed to enjoy...
And I lost a few apps+contacts+msgs since my backup wasn't updated...
Typed using a small touchscreen
When i first started using cynogen mod 7 and didn't read the buglist. I was supose to meet a girl somewhere and needed gps but that was a cm7 bug.. It would work and get a location when it wanted to after a few reboots sometimes it worked.. I never made it to see her but i had to flash a nightly rom to get gps to work.. So i was sad twice that night lol.

I flashed the GPS fix for the HD2 right before I went to school and give the phone to my girlfriend. Apparently, that fix caused reboots every minute. She hated the phone because it rebooted in class constantly. I wiped the ROM and reflashed and it fixed it. Lucky me lol

I am so glad, that most of my friends dont know or are afraid of flashing. As a result, they dont know there are such options as overclocking and other things that can screw your phone.

Mine was just a couple of days ago. Wanted to show someone at work how awesome the rom was on my phone, and at that very moment it wanted to glitch, so it made me look like an idiot.
And, anytime I talk roms and rooting to my friends they look at me like I'm an idiot.
Mine still happens I just finished year 11 in the UK basically high school and my friends of course still want to keep in touch and since I'm always flashing ROMs, they are always like why don't you text or call back and I'm like I have checked my call history and my text messages it is all clear here, they think I am ignoring them.

LTE issues (no LTE after Phone Info)

Well to save battery I ran across a post on Droid Life about an app turns off LTE since we don't have a setting for that. The app is called Phone Info. I was able to switch it to 3G but now I can't get LTE back. I tried to select "LTE/CDMA/EVDO" but it doesn't stick. It keeps going back to "CDMA Auto (PRL). I tried rebooting and even wiping the phone but nothing. Any help guys?

In the phone info, switch it, then select turn radio off, then turn it back on. Has worked for me in the past.

It's been discussed around here pretty extensively but it's an issue with Bean's rom (mb synergy too, I don't know) but once it is switch off lte/cdma/evdo you can't switch it back .
When it happened to me, the only thing that fixed it was nandroiding back to my stock/rooted rom, changing it and then reflashing beans and leaving everything alone.
I just did this today and just switched back to lte with no issues whatsoever it went straight to 4g.
The other night simply I opened this app and lost all data on beans b6...It was as if the app glitched because the screen glitched and bam, data/voice was gone... so I went to device info and the app automatically changed my device to wcdma preferred wtf? I got 3g back by switching to cdma, but still no LTE even after switching to lte/cdma/evdo...
So I ended up having to reprovision my device by dialing: *2767*3855#
This will wipe data so have a nandroid ready, but it should restore LTE...atleast it did for me.

On Beans? It works on stock, but hasn't worked on Beans. mb it got fixed in B7 though.
Similar issue here. I flashed CM10 last night. My 4g worked for about 10 minutes, but it dropped 2 times within 5 minutes, then for good. I rebooted to see if it would come back, no luck. Went back to a restore, same thing. Got phoneinfo and I can get data only on LTE/WCDMA and LTE/GSM/WCDMA. LTE/CDMA/Evdo shows no data, and roaming. Can't seem to get 3g at all. Phone won't even show as activated in CM.
update: Droidstyle's fix seems to have worked. Too scared to play around with the preferred network or CM now though
Avoid jellybomb theme and beans rom if you use the phone info app

Thank you so much. This worked like a charm. I work night shift n this happened to me at work. When I got home, I started to download the stock files to Odin back to stock to fix it but when I seen your suggestion, I did it but I fell asleep waiting for it lol n when I woke up, I got a pleasant surprised. Got my 4G back thanks a lot

even doing the whole reprovision thing has not allowed me to go back to lte/cdma/evdo.. im still stuck at either gsm or cdma auto prl... this is getting really annoying...
Personally i would avoid using that app period, it seems to cause issues on any rom
