[Q] Problems Sending Messages - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed that my Nexus S 4G is having a lot of problems sending messages. A temporary fix is flashing a new radio and sometimes flashing a new ROM. But the "Message not sent" notification eventually comes back, but the people I'm texting still reply, so I think its just the ROMs I'm running. Any fixes?

If ur texts worked before.... then yes, its the ROM. So go to that ROMs thread and see what they suggested for that issue.
Good luck

Duplicate SMS Texting errors

Both my wife and I seem to be getting duplicate SMS texting errors on our SK4Gs. the same message will arrive sometimes DOZENS of times. It seems like the phone isn't sending the right signal to the T-Mobile server that the SMS Text Message has been received. (Thankfully I have an unlimited TXT plan.)
I troubleshooted with on-line Chat and they said to try SIM Card in another phone at a local T-Mobile store and if the problem still happens, it is a network problem, if not, it is a Phone problem. I did. No Duplicates.
Odd that when I send a text message to myself, there are no duplicates.
Store Rep said next step would be a MASTER RESET of the phone before they would do a warranty exchange.
Is anyone else having this issue. Any suggestions on any system tweaks that can be used to solve the issue?
Since the issue statrted, I upgraded to GeekSMS and still get the same problem.
Yes, is happens to me too. Its annoying but it doesn't happen to often.

For some reason I've been experiencing the message ones a lot more frequently this last day, maybe because I text more? would that affect it? Either way it shouldnt stop working because I text alot /: that basically the reason why i got the sk

Duplicate text messages

I am now all of a sudden getting double messages. I just flashed the 1.85 ruu yesterday. Now more often than not when I get a txt the message comes twice a usally at the same time. When I open the message app it looks like the person texting sent it twice.
How can I fix this

same problem but on original RUU with rogers & root. So I highly doubt its an 1.85 ruu thing

Looks normal to me

I have had this problem since getting the phone on launch.
I find though it duplicates more so from unknown senders than those on my contacts list
Duplicate messages are a carrier/tower problem, not a phone or ROM problem. I see this when my wife is in South Austin, every message she sends I get a duplicate; once she leaves that area, no longer a problem.

I never sent or received duplicate text messages with my last phone and I'm using the same carrier and towers.
Some SMS apps do this. Any ICS based one seems to have this bug. Uninstall any third party SMS apps you have and it should fix it.
If you try to send a message does it appear double as well?
Sent time/Date are normal?
Tried clearing cache of the specific sms app you are using?

I guess it wasn't just me. I've been receiving duplicate text messages every day on the One X. I never had a single duplicate text message on the same network for YEARS on my last phone (iPhone).

Im having the same problem. Got a new SIM card, no luck. Tech support says that it is in fact the phone because it is not generating a read report.
Looks like HTC warranty will be receiving a call.
OK this my story i used an LG G2X Phone everything went well with my phone but some how when it was low signal on my area
i started having multiple sms from sender about 10 sms at the time
So i got fustrated that i search for this issue, and ended up with the solution
The solution for this multiple sms from sender is that you got play store and download GetRil and see if the rill match. if does said: RIL/BASEBAND DOES NOT MATCH. Then theres the problem.
Thats how i fix it, i know i came from different ROM.
I hope it help !
This happens randomly on my AT&T One X+. Stock messaging app. From searching I've found that this is happening on multiple devices and carriers. Is the stock app the only common denominator? Or is this happening on 3rd party apps as well?
alright fellas, I've been having the duplicate text issues for over a month. After talking to 6 different tech support agents and getting my htc one (m7) at&t replaced, the conclusion is that the phone isn't the actual problem. I have also been researching online and found no permanent solutions. However I did come out with a possible solution. It seems that I live in an area where the 4g lte and 4g signals interrupt each other. Therefore I found a way to disable the lte on the Htc One M7. I am not sure if this will work with other devices but give it a try!
SOLUTION
1) dial *#*#4636#*#*
2) go to Phone Information
3)Go down to the set preferred network type and change it to WCDMA preferred
go back to home and you're done!
I hope this works for most/all of you because I found it extremely frustrating. It kind of sucks that we cant use the full capabilities of the device due to the lte problems but it's a fix that isn't bothering me atm.

Not receiving texts issue

Hi everyone,
I'm having some issues with my one x. Sometimes (happens a few times a day) I won't receive text/mms unless I send a text out first. Then all of a sudden a wave of incoming texts would come in once I send the text out. I get all 5 bars and it still happens. 'm stock and using Hand cent.
How do you resolve this issue?
Having a similar issue.. mines with sending and receiveing. Even with full tower sometimes they dont send without airplane mode being turned on and off.
What rom are you on, if any? I'm having the same issue from time to time and it is really irritating getting delayed texts. I don't know if it is a rom issue but I am on Viper 1.2.3.

I'm on stock 2.20. Yeah, it's actually pretty weird. I won't receive any texts till I send a text out. Then a wave of incoming
Texts come in after 30 seconds of me sending out a text.
If you haven't done anything to the phone - I'd be contacting the provider... Might be network issues...
See if you have the same issues with your sim in another phone...

I used to have this issue when I was using stock and I would walk into or out of a Wifi area. Texting would just not work for 10 minutes or so. Haven't had the problem since ROMing
Does anyone know how to get to the screen where you can turn LTE on and off? (you had to input some numbers and dial it)
I remember trying to mess around with that and the setting was probably wrong. What is the correct setting?
That sucks dude - do you have the same problem in another phone though? If you do it's going to be a network issue - so you'd need to contact AT&T.
The code you're after is *#*#4636#*#*

sms problems

Ok so I've been with the sensation crowd since before we had even gotten rooted, plus on android since the epic dropped many moons ago. But I just recently started having problems with my sms. I try and send an sms to someone in my contacts, and like 90% of them get my sms. However there are a few that don't. On my tmous sensation it has sent and I even get the delivered message too on aosp. But the intended recipient never gets the sms on their end. It only seems to happen with contacts that own a sgs3. I was wondering if anyone else is having issues like this? And if so how'd you fix or work around the issue?
I've tried full wiping, and a clean install of my ARHD 6.8.0, tried other roms, scoured the internet via Google. I haven't seen any solutions or people having the same issue.
Please help if anyone has insight.
Thanks!

[Q] Extremely Odd Issue

I have an issue that I have no idea what causes it. Every few weeks or so I am not able to text a specific person or call them. I can be on any Rom and kernel combo and the issue will still arise. The messages will send but they never receive them and when I call, it doesn't show that I called on their phone. The only way I have found to fix my issue is to flash a TW Rom at which point we can call and text again then I flash back to AOSP and it will be fine for a few weeks. My friend has an iPhone, which I believe might have something to do with it. When this happens I can call and text any other contact and they can call and text any of their contacts but we can't contact each other. I don't know if the issue is me, them or Verizon, which we both have. If anyone has any insight or has heard of this, any info would be greatly appreciated because it gets annoying having to flash a new Rom every month. (Sorry for any grammatical errors, I'm typing this on a tablet.)
My buddy and I both have androids, he can get my texts but the ones sent to me will not go through. We can call though but the text issue has been happening on three phones. I think it's an issue on his end. He's bone stock.
