Can't reply to SMS

For the past 2 weeks, I've been bugged by this error message when I'm replying to an SMS:
"The message was not sent to one or more recipients. To verify address and network coverage, select Retry. To save to Drafts, select Cancel"
I have reflashed my Omnia with 3 different roms and I still get that error whenever I reply to an SMS. I'm now on my 4th rom (M2D04).
I had Vito SMS-Chat installed in the previous roms. I did not install it now thinking maybe it was the culprit.
Have anyone else experienced the same problem?

Now I'm really pissed. I reflashed again, now using Secany's HK3 rom. Didn't install any apps, just wanted to check if the problem with replying to SMS will be gone. But I still get that error message!!!

have you made sure your operator settings are correct

My operator settings are correct.
Sometimes I can send/reply to messages, but most of the time I can't.

I've seen similar problems get resolved by checking this option:
Go to messaging-->menu-->options. Go to the address tab and make sure under 'In contacts get email addresses from' it reads 'All email fields'.
Try giving it another shot now.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

No luck. Still can't send/reply SMS.
I am now suspecting my telecom provider is blocking SMS coming from Samsung Omnias. Is this possible?
Here's the situation:
The telecom provider (Telecom A) I'm using is aggressively promoting the iPhone 3G. Another telecom (Telecom B) is marketing the Samsung Omnia. Here, the iPhone is losing to the Omnia. So is it possible that Telecom A is sabotaging the Omnia if you use Telecom A's simcard on the Omnia?
I switched my sim in the Omnia to that of Telecom B's last night. So far, all my messages were sent without any problems. If I didn't encounter any SMS errors until tomorrow, then I think my theory is right.
Also, I have 2 other friends who have Omnia, one is using Telecom A, and the other is using Telecom B. The one using Telecom A also have the same problem as mine, while the one using Telecom B haven't encountered it yet.

Ahhh, CONSPIRACY ALERT!
No, I doubt that your theory is correct! You forget one thing: your "Telecom A" earns money while you're sending a short message - no matter what phone you're using! They surely promote their own phones when you sign up for a service agreement or upgrade your existing plan; however, what they want you to do, is, to make many calls and send plenty messages because that is what they rely on to make money.
I really think that something in your settings is still not correct - this is the only one reason why it won't send out your messages!

Using Telecom B's simcard on my Omnia the whole day today, no problems with SMS sending.
Regarding the settings, if there are incorrect settings, then I won't be able to send a single SMS. But there were times that my SMS goes through.

I was thinking.....maybe its just sim/signal issues more to do with the combination of Telecom A + your Omnia. Figures...because your saying it works perfectly fine on the other chip. And that automatically rules out anything to do with the roms or the device itself. I've seen issues like these...and well sometimes....there really is no explaining them.

But I never experienced this when my phone was still new and on G3 rom.

Fuze Can't Send or Receive SMS!!

Hey Guys, first time posting...
My Fuze has been great, except when it comes to sending and receiving sms messages... I can't!!... and if I go Start/Messages none of my original text messages from my Sim are there.
It makes me think that the phone and sim card aren't communicating properly?... although I can receive and make calls... could it be something that needs to be changed in the registry? I have installed PHM Registry Editor but don't know what I need to change.
Also, I have TouchFlo on the phone and when I slide the menu tab to messages, I can see new messages that I have received (yes that's right, I receive msg's through touchflo, but no other way!), and they are stored on my phone and not my SIM! AND it doesn't notify me when a new msg comes in which is very annoying!! And the same problem... I can't send messages
So in summary, I think the texting side of the phone it not correctly setup and needs to communicate with my SIM card.. I assume it is a registry change that needs to be made?
Please help...
Thanks, Seireon

I have the same problem and emailed ATT, their response was that if the SIM that I have is 3G it should work fine on the phone. I need to call tech support with ATT to see if they can troubleshoot, as I will not exchange the phone due to some investments in it already like invisble barrier. If there is a issue with the SIM that I should be aware of please continue this thread as I know that there are many in the same hole. Thank you.

more info
Spoke with ATT CS the sim card has to be matched to your phone in order for it to work properly, I can send and receive mms and sms messages now.

ok same problem again sms, stopped working,
new developments I have been able to figure out that the problem is associated with the media net connection. once media net has established a connection, sms stops working. I have been unable to send multimedia messages, what I will try next is to try by flashing another ATT/Cingular ROM to see if the issue disappears, if it does then is a software issue, if it does not disappears then is a hardware issue and I'll have to change the phone for another.
I'll post in a few hours.

Í've been having the same problem with my phones. Every 3-4 weeks I will lose the ability to sms. I go to att online chat support and they reset my phone. I believe it is related to att's account systems because it happened once before I got the fuze and it occurs on every phone on my account. Ít's getting to be a hassle to swap my sim into my "dumb phone" to call att for a resolution. I might have to get the pda plan so I can gripe about it more.

Ok I have PDA plan.
Flashed the following ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466219
Everything is working like a charm. I opted to flash that custom ROM because of its great reviews and apparent lack of issues. I'm still testing it, but so far is all good. I'll update if issues regarding this thread come to light. Thank you.

Having the same problem
Same problem here, although I can send text messages, my picture messages are hit and miss (miss in the beginning). ATT had me go in get another SIM card and do a hard reset... this kind of fixed it... now I can send/recieve sometimes.
I'm interested in hearing if the new ROM fixed this in the long run (not just for the first few days).

Hey,
got the same problem aswell now!
Flashed the same ROM, and now I can't send any SMS anymore. Before the flash I was able to (flashed from stock)
Would love to hear if you got it work! I'd like to know the solution!
Thank you
- luikki

4 days of testing and still working perfectly, if you have issues with sms, or voice mail, please check that you have the right numbers on the Voice Mail and Text Messages services, at
Phone, Options, Services. For Att in US they should be the following:
Text Messages Service Center: 13123149810
Voice Mail: ""write your account cell phone number""
Hope this helps. Thanks.

i had this problem when i first got my fuze.. sometimes the touchflo messes up when installing and a hard reset solved my problem..

Update, no problems so far everything is working like a charm. Thanks.

still have that same problem
i lost the ability to send or receive sms after i flashed my phone for the second time.
first time from stock, did rre fuze 4.5 special edition.. sms worked like a champ.
second time changed to romeos and things stopped working for sms altogether. weird thing is i can do that whole call "get numbers used" in my contacts, and it will text me how many minutes i have.
i cannot send nor receive any messages. iam getting frustrated with this because no one really seems to have an issue.
i just did two hard resets, flashed to rre fuze 4.5 special edition, and still cannot get anything to work.
i read somewhere that turning 3g off worked. it did not.
my voice mail and text message service reads as follows
text messages service center: +1 (312) 314-9810
is it supposed to read like that or what?
please advise.

Problem
I'm having the same problem with SMS, I can't send or recieve any pictures, audio files through messages, nor can I recieve or send bluetooth files once connected to another phone via bluetooth, does anyone have a answer to that?
btw I have flashed my phone at least 4 times. different rom versions until i found one i liked. Now i am barely noticing I can't sms

Anyone using this phone on t-moble pls help!!!

I have this phone sm-a750g AND AM ON T-MOBILE. I cant make or receive calls, I cant send or receive text messages. The only way I can send or receive txt's is I have to add a picture and when it converts the message to MMS I can send it and to be able to receive a txt the sender has to do the same and add a picture. If I try without the pic it tells me it will send when the service becomes available. I've tried several different APNS to no avail. When I try to make a call it tells me i'm not registered on the network, I try to register on the network and it tells me t-mobile isn't available even though it finds it. I can get on the internet just fine with the phone and browse email and social media just fine. I've been with customer support for hours and days at a time to no avail and of course everything is tip top on there end and it has to all be me. I can put a att or cricket sim in and everything works fine?? bad thing is im not on anyone of those carriers. SOMEONE PLS HELP ME BEFORE I GO FREAKING CRAZY OUT OF MY MIND!!!!!!!

Hello,
just for the usual text messages: have you changed the setting for using text-Messages?
Messages > Settings > Chat Settings > "Select default messaging type" > Text/multimedia msgs
With the chat option I've allways had some problems here.

Weird issue can not recieve text messages

Ok so my p40 pro arrived today and i put my sim card in (using straight talk byop at&t sim). i can make calls and use data , i can also send text messages. but the phone will not receive any text messages.
so far i've did the following
factory reset the phone
reset network settings
tried manually entering APN settings
i even tried using Textra
None have worked, whats weird is i got rid of my Mate 30 pro last week and texting worked fine on that phone. Anyone have any suggestions that may help fix the issue?

Ok so i figured out the issue ,and thought id post it here in case anyone has the issue and gets frustrated not being able to receive messages .
so apparently now you have to treat google messages like apples iMessage. you have to "diasble" chat features on google messages before switching sim into a phone that doesn't support google messages natively. i wasn't aware of this needing to be done especially since i had a mate 30 pro 2 weeks ago that i stuck my sim in and it worked perfectly with texting.
so just a heads up if anyone has this same issue like i did.

I imagine the network message settings are wrong, here in the UK they have outgoing and incoming settings, I would compare the message service number from your old handset

SMS text message issues

Hi,
I purchased a refurbished Note 10 Plus 5G. Been happy with it so far. But had some issues receiving text messages.
My phone does not have an option to enter a service centre number. I spent a while with O2 helping me trouble shoot. After trying everything else I could find online. It seems like in settings>more settings within the custom messages app that there is no option for this. Also th shortcut to get the number (*#*#4636#*#*) does not work either.
Interestingly when I put my sim in an old phone the old texts which were not received came straight through on my old mobile. Since then I seem to be able to receive some messages (but concerned the issue could return and the phone will not be able to be refunded). Particularly as the menu system online to enter the text service number is still not available.
Is my phone faulty? Or is this others have experienced.
Thanks.

I am able to send text messages, and make and receive calls with no issues.
I also do not have the option to request read receipts (I don't need this, but may be relevant to the issue).
