Mobilicity says HTC Sensation isn't their phone so they can't help me.
So my calling and data both work fine, but I can neither send or receive texts. I've tried changing the service center number to both +16478000112 and +16478000106 but both do not work. The only time texting works is when I send a text to myself
So can anyone hazard to guess why this might be happening?
Have u tried the sim in another handset to rule out a Sim issue

I could also be that u have an old sim which won't hold the center number correctly

SIM card
go to a t-mobile store and ask them to check it out. I remember someone had problems getting 4g and it was because the SIM card was old.
I just went to the store and they reset the signal and it worked... although the phone tech support said they did the same thing but when they did it it didn't work. Weird, but yes my SMS works now.
Hi All,
I have been facing an issue while receiving calls when I'm using EDGE/GPRS on my HTC sensation. The calls dont get through to me. Apparently most of the HTC desire users are facing the same issue and the person calling me gets the not reachable message.
Is there any fix/workaround for this issue?
Thanks,
Priyank
Does this occur on other roms aswell? You may want to try a new Rom, or try flashing another radio

Is anyone else having a problem with text messages not being sent? Im using handcent and every so often a message will show the spinning icon indicating that its being sent. It just keeps spinning and spinning. When I open the stock messaging app and check the status of the message it says it was sent right when I had originally tried to send it through handcent. The person I send the message to never gets the message though.
Has anyone else had this problem? Am I going to be stuck using the stock app?
I had this problem, went back to the stock app, but it only happens when I'm at work and I go in the basement and then come out, because of the reconnecting to data bug I have to restart my phone or it won't get data, send texts or anything, I usually take my 4s to work

I've had this problem as well. Sometimes i send the message again and that solves the problem. I am not rooted and still using the stock ruu. I'm hoping it's just due to a connectivity bug that will be remedied in the OTA update...if it ever comes.

Same here. Failed messages, failed notification, dropped signal etc etc. Hoping the official OTA fixes all of that soon.

My phone is having this same problem, except it's a little worse. The phone reports the SMS as not sent but it still reaches its destination, so I'll have iPhone users getting 2-4 copies of one text. Embarrassing.
Thanks for the replies guys. Although Im glad to hear that its not just me (I can avoid requesting a replacement) it still sucks and I too hope it gets fixed with an update.

I'm hoping that this is a software issue, because my 30 days are up in a few days and they're out of stock.. because I have this same exact problem.

When you sent the message with handcent, did you happen to reply with the pop up reply box?
I use go sms and had the same issue where text were not being sent. But it only happens if I reply from the pop up notification. If I text from within the go sms app, I can text perfectly fine. I love the pop up reply so that I don't have to exit an app to reply, especially with the strict app management on the hox.

Last time it happened, I had sent a text from within the app. I installed go sms also, but I really want to use Handcent. I love that I can reply using the popup on handcent without unlocking my screen. I cant do that with go sms.

Another +1 on this. Occasionally have the problem with SMS, but often have this issue with MMS. Problem is, on my end, everything appears to be fine and that the message was sent, but the recipient is not receiving. I verified this by sending multiple SMS and MMS messages to my wife's phone, some of which were received, some of which were not received.
I have been having this problem also, both using the HTC SMS messenger and Hand cent SMS. Also lose signal from time to time for no reason. I think I'll just get a new phone before the 30 day mark.

It appears to be an issue with all 3rd-party SMS apps.
That said, ChompSMS seems to have identified the problem and resolved it completely. Ever since the last update I've had zero problems with SMS.
So, other apps should hopefully update soon too, or you can switch to Chomp.

Thank you for that information. Im going to try ChompSMS because this is one problem that I can not deal with and if it doesnt stop happening I will have to return my phone and thats something I really dont want to have to do.

I had completely forgotten about chomp. Thanks for reminding me. I started using it and while I still get messages not sending if I reply to a text from the pop up notification, it doesn't do it nearly as much as go sms. With go sms, the message not sending would happen one after another but not with chomp. And even though I don't like the sound, I've set chomp to make a sound after a successful sent message so at least I can tell if my message has sent without having to open the app.
Thanks again for mentioning chomp

SMS not sending from hancent
Having exactly the same problem..
I use Handcent and usually reply from the popup;
but I'm not sure if that's the cause of it not sending the SMS.
I've had the same problem on my old HTC desire.
This is making my GF very angry from time to time
I have the exact same issue i use Go SMS and i hit send but it never does instead it shows the little arrow that represents sending and it never finishes

I have this issue with all my MMS. They never send on first try.

Did anyone ever find a permanent fix for this. Go sms works better then others for me, but is in no way as reliable as it should be.
Is this a problem for every owner of the HOX or just some phones? Not sure if I should get a replacement.

Hey guys, have searched but no solution,
On holiday and my sisters sim doesn't get any signal, any idea how to register whatsapp or even better why she may now have signal when my other sister does and they're both on orange
Cheers

I had this problem on my previous phone, just enter a sim's number and put the sim in some random phone, wait for the text message with the activation code and boom, you can WhatsApp when you have wi-fi!

Cheers, but ive tried that and there is no option to enter the code, as now it tried to do it automatically, or get you to request a phone call and listen for the number.
was thinking of maybe trying to install a really old version of whatsapp, any idea where i could find an apk?

No, that doesn't work, just wait out the 5 mins and then it will offer you to either call you or enter the code.
