this text message failed bug is making me want to throw this thing!

is anyone still experiencing this sms failed sending crap after flashing or updating to KD1? I thought KD1 was supposed to fix this issue. Happens to me at least a few times a day. Very annoying!!

It happened to me only one time right after I flashed kd1 but hasn't done it since.

The way around it is to edit the number and reenter it without any spaces...let me know if that worked

kc1 was horrible with that failure text
kd1 is suppose to fix it however:
SOMETIMES when i go into handcent not the quick reply and i just exit handcent before the message sends all the way through it will fail, but that is only once in a great while usually i can just leave handcent and it will go through

Simple Mobile
I just wanted to let u guys know that when i had T-mobile i was expiriencing this but i switched my service to Simple Mobile which is cheaper at $60.00 a month for unlimited everything. Simple Mobile has a contract with T-mobile to use their towers so i don't understand why it stopped when i switched? Best part is the service is identical to T-mobile cause the towers are T-Mobiles but the price is like $20 a month cheaper!!

oh wow, i thought i was the only one with this problem. it was happening to me several times a day every day. i'm on my third galaxys4g (one was replaced, the other was stolen, this is my third) and it seems to be better, but it sucks that the hardware replacement is the only thing that has seemed to work on it so far.

yeah, this was discussed over in the vibrant section to some extent. basically what came out of it was that you need to remove all special characters from your phone numbers.
for example: (555) 555-5555 will give you the "error in server response"
however: 5555555555 will not give you the "error in server response"

Been using this modem for 12 hours on my custom stock rom, and battery life is good, signal eesh (ok) for my area, but WiFi is bad.

It kicks but in my area...eh ...different modems work better in different areas...

Thank a bunch! Will test for a day or so! As of 4 hours agho, wifi is great, gps is very accurate and fast to lock.

Testing for 2 days now and only issues I see is slightly more battery drain than KK1 and stability. Incredibly fast.

Anyone know what's causing the 160+ word text message fail issue on these newer modems? The last time a 160+ word text sent for me was on UCKI3, which I am currently on.

I send 160+ texts to my wife all the time (we text a lot, lol) and have never had a problem. She's on ATT also but the MMS app has no idea what provider the recipient is using before it sends. I assume it's failing when trying to send and not at some other point (like mms deliver confirmation or something).

Well the weird thing is that it's happened with every new modem and I've tried to send a bunch of 160+ texts. I'll send them to myself as well for confirmation and try don't send. And I text my girlfriend a lot as well, and she's on ATT. I just can't figure this out to save my life, lol.

+1 ... I have had the exact same problem. 160+ character fails to send on any new modem. Last modem that let me was UCKI3, which I got decent speeds with and was pretty stable.
This KK2 is a little faster, the wifi may be just a little more stable... but I miss being able to send long texts
I might make the switch back to KI3 just for the long text message capability...

I've also had issues with every new modem when it comes to the 160+ characters with texting. I'm currently on UCKJ1, its the latest one without the issue and I get great speeds on it. But I always check when a new one comes out and its always there!

Were they long texts? When using the KJ6 modem I've found (And heard of) many people complaining longer texts and picture messages would not send. Try using another modem like KI3 and see if its fixed.

I'm currently having the same issue since I upgraded to the official os. I thought maybe I did something wrong by flashing Dr honks kj1 kernel over this ROM. I even called t-mobile and the rep I spoke with was pretty condescending, but I was at work at the time and didn't wanna get irate before a meeting. If there's more people with this issue, hopefully they'll call so it can be addressed.

Try flashing another modem like my post above ;P

all kj6 and 2.3.6 roms have this problem if its even a problem that is.There is max of 160 or 180 chars you can send. When the numbers start to pop up like 5/1 while typing a long text it will almost always fail. If your typing up a long essay to your friend send it through email other wise sms is for only short messages. sms(short message server). I believe its the Tmobile network that limits this per message and theres ane asy work around of either flashing a different modem or typing short messages below 6 lines.

160 for SMS, and some cdma networks can not send / receive anything over that. You can split some messages in some SMS programs like gosms.
Switching to the ki3 moden has stopped my can't send message, however the other person still received the message even though it said the message failed to send.

I've never had this as an issue until just recentlyand it's not isolated to more than 160, even 2liners fail. CDMA limits your message to 160 chars but GSM network have never to my knowledge set a char cap on sms unless if its been recent.

Thanks for the responses. Glad i'm not the only one. It seems to happen regardless of text length, and had definitely only started since upgrading.
In regard to flashing a different modem, will that have a detrimental effect on wifi?

No, the files that improved the wifi are in the system folder, I separated them and posted a thread in the dev section on how to use those files on any room... Yes you can now have improved wifi on any GB ROM the modem.bin file, from what I've seen only delegates mobile radio

[Q] Can a ROM effect calls (that is - dropping them)?

Hi
Just wanted to know.... since I am dropping calls so often, can that be ROM-related? Or does that have nothing to do with that?
Because if there is even a slight chance that it is ROM-related, than I will go back to STOCK

I found that cm7 based roms seemed to not switch towers as quickly as stock roms.might just be my device though. I get notably fewer dropped data connections on tsugi.

Me too.
Yes, but I broke my screen and have been too poor to fix it to resell. LoL
I have had the same experience so far.

I've not had any dropped calls on any roms I've tried. Currently on Tsugi and even wifi calling is working.
My signal everywhere but home is at least 3/4 bars and I always have 4g speeds >3mbps down.
I live in central Florida, Polk County.

The G2X just seems to be a little bit less robust in low signal situations.... so you will only have a problem in marginal areas usually...
Now I just discovered something odd with mine... If I set to WCDMA only, and force 4G signal, I don't seem to lose signal at all in my apartment. When I had it on WCDMA preferred, it would constantly switch between 4G and 2G modes, and I'd lose signal frequently, even if I was on a call... so it seems to me the problem may actually be in the switching between GSM and WCDMA.... Or just with GSM... need to do further experimentation.

I live in the middle of Orlando, so I really don't think that's considered a marginal area for a signal. Tmo said there was a tower not that far from my house too. I'll have to try the forcing it to 4g next time I am out and about and see how that works... Thanks for the suggestion lotherius.

Data drops

Okay, so my phone had been connecting to data and then just dropping within a minute and try to reconnect and so on, so I sent it into Samsung. It turns out, all they did was take the update that Samsung had put out while they had my phone and said it was fixed. It may have seemed fixed to them, but it is definitely not. It seems as though it only happens when I'm in a 3G only area which is where I live so I basically cannot use my data at all. I know it works when I leave where I live because I went to Los Angeles last month and my 4G and my 3G were working fine. I just don't understand it. I know it's not because my area has bad 3G coverage cause it's fine. I'm just so flustered. Any help?

Looks like tower problem to me since it works fine in town.
Flash every modem available to see if you can find one that works with your 3G tower. Have seen older radios that worked better with 3G due to the towers being old tech. Since the phone and radios are new may not be able to find radio that works consistently. The 4G will work with with any 4G tower. If not able to get 3G contact Verizon and put in a ticket on your local tower. Hope this makes sense.

All radios are on Rootzwiki. If radios don't work call them back. Nothing wrong with phone if works in town although also depends how far you are from tower. If any Verizon phone works you have a case for upgrade of tower or phone. If just at home may give you extender. Do not let them charge you for it.

This device is solid on 4g and when in a 3g only area...soon as you get to a area where the data switches between 4g/3g/1x it becomes flaky at best no doubt. Beans rom seems to have the most stable data connection whem Im on the outskirts of a solid 4g signal...it is a device issue that should be fixed with a software update at some point. The problem is its easier for verizon to release a device with bugs, then to spend the extra time and cash to R&D and fix them before release date. I know it does not make sense, but think about it from there end. Lets say VZW has a device thats 90% bug free, so they release it to start locking people in on new contracts and rake in the money hoping folks dont complain about minor issues. If folks do comlain, well then vzw will run you thru the mill and send you a refurb, or open a claim ticket...by then after enough time has elapsed and no issue is fixed, they most likely will discontinue the device andoffer you a different one, passing the customer on to a whole new set of problems.
