I don't know why my phone is so wacked out...but now I can not send Pics in Text Messages. It trys to send but just gets stuck on "sending". Any suggestions?
Maybe try toggling your data connection off/on. Or, sent out a regular SMS. Sometimes that will help push em thru. I've had issues sometimes where they'll hang like that until I receive a text, then they push thru, but only on certain ROMs.
Hope this helps at all.

I had the same problem before, then I learned that my data had to be on in order to send or receive messages through text messages. I'm not sure if this is because of my carrier or if that's just how it is.
Won't work over Wifi, which seems kind of silly.
You need to have the data on to send MMS (picture messages) the carriers do not generally count that against the data you use.

My device is running WM6.
I don't send MMS often, but I've noticed that I can no longer send or receive MMS messages. They get stuck in my outbox or come in with a message saying they can't be downloaded.
When I first got the phone, it worked fine. Now, it tells me that the images are too big to be sent (don't know where the 100k limit came from), even though I only use the cell phone camera to take pics and i have to compress them. After compressing, it still doesn't send.
What should my settings be? Where do I find these settings?
Anyone?
Could I be having this issue because I use the Tmobile $5.99 internet?? If so, can someone tell me what (if anything) I can do to fix it??
I've been having problems with long texts not being received. I send a short one and it goes through, I send a longer one (say 140 characters) and it doesn't. Phone pops up the message sent bubble, but it is never received.
To test out my theory, I started a new sms and sent it to myself. phone says it sent, then I get a reply via text saying like not able to send, please resend with area code... so i use area code and it sends and i get it just fine. I press reply and send a short message, it comes through.. I reply again and send a longer message, and I get the error saying I need an area code.
So what seems like is going on, for whatever reason with I REPLY to a message with a lengthy text, it tries to send it without area code... I dont get that error text back though when sending to my girlfriend.
I'm on alltel, typically trying to text my girl on verizon.
HELP!?
Ok Ive alwaysssssssss had this problem since I bought this phone and never asked for help but its bugging me now and I want to get it fixed. If I send a text message which falls under the character limit everyone gets them just fine. But as soon as I exceed the limit that it has to send 2 texts no one receives the 2nd text. I even did a test and went 1 character over the limit the other person reported that they were missing the last letter in the text. I have checked my settings it says that any txt exceeding 3 messages will be converted to an MMS. I disabled this feature, I still have this problem. I set it to 5 msg limit to send as mms, still same problem. Its really annoying because I have free txts with my provider so I can send as many as I want but no idea why I cant send long txts. any my friends are on the same provider and they send me long txts and i get them fine. Ive gotten others to send long txts to the same friends they get em fine. its just my msgs that people cannot get from me. My phone provider is vodafone australia if that matters

I think some roms had something along the lines of split settings in the messaging app. Maybe it had something to do with that?
What rom are you running?

hi, i have a us cellular gs3 (no section for us cellular gs3) running aokp_dcusc_jb-mr2_milestone-2 and i'm having trouble sending texts to an email, i've never had this problem in the past with any phone or any other rom on this phone. what its doing is trying to send it as a mms instead of a text. i'm not sending a pic just a few words. i'm using the default message app "com.android.mms version 4.3.1-eng.sethyx.20131218.013055". i've tried other messaging apps and they're all doing the same thing. i'm on page plus and my data is in and out so i have my data turn off all the time, even still i've been able to sent texts to an email without data as a text not a sms. any help (besides suggesting to switch roms) would be greatly appreciated.
People rarely if ever receive long text messages (which I believe are sent as MMS) or MMS messages I send with pictures. I'm on AT&T. The messages show as sent but people aren't getting them 99% of the time, no matter what carrier or phone they use. Is this AT&T screwing me over or something wrong with OOS?
