i tried rebooting, i tried resending, i tried a battery pull, nothing works.
im not rooted or ROM'd at all... aside from ADW-ex launcher, i haven't modded the phone yet...
i can still RECEIVE texts, just cant send.
Internet works, on wifi and data, market works, it's sending/receiving data...
i tried turning my data off and back on... i cant figure it out.

worked for me. what changed?
Somehow it's possible for the message center to get corrupted/lost... Happened to me too.
Looks like the OP solved the problem, but I have this issue with my microcell. I can text everywhere but home. I have to try resending some texts 3-4 times. There is an new iphone in the house that has no issues, nor did my old 3gs have any issues on the microcell.
My wife and I have the same issue. Granted when we aren't at home and the signal is still low we will have failed texts but at home its horrible. I think AT&T is full of crap and the Mcell doesn't handle SMS and MMS as it should.
There is a thread here called "text message issues (infused)" I can't post links yet...but it refers to microcell and texting issues. It says there are posts that discuss fixing it, but I can't seem to find anything.
The other day I only had one or two fail, but today had been worse than normal, every single text fails at least twice. Really starting to wear on my nerves.

I have the same problem with my phone. I just got an Infuse less than 2 weeks ago. Before that I had an HTC Aria, a Palm Pre Plus, and an iPhone 3G. None of those phones had problems with the mCell from AT&T or texts, but my Infuse immediately had trouble sending texts, and only on the mCell. I guess the Infuse and the microcell don't play nice together. Wonder if AT&T will fix it? We'll probably have better luck with a dev figuring it out for us first.
I had the same issue with MicroCell with the phone on WIFI. Once I turned of the wifi, the message usually sends without a hitch. Maybe it has something to do with the cellular connection not staying alive while on wifi with the microcell?

I think I tried this already, with no luck, but I'll try again once I get back home.
Sometimes it took a few seconds after I disabled WiFi, but it solves the problem 90% of the time for me.

It also sometimes happens minus the microcell, which leads me to believe it has something to do with WiFi.... personally
You may be on to something with the wifi. I have tried it for the past two days without wifi on and all of my texts have gone through. Could just be a coincidence, I'm going to do some more testing in the next few days to see what happens turning wifi back on and off.

Had the same problem on my phone as well, was worried i messed up my kernal or something like that... worked like a charm. thanks!!!
Is there different messaging center #'s? I reverted back to stock so I could do the ota update to the new firmware, then I installed the community kernel and somehow it erased that #. I input the 1321....# and it works like a charm now. I dont want to get hit with any fees or surprises so just wanted to make sure the messaging center # was the same for all phones.
I am running the infused 1.5.3 rom and go sms. When I try to send a picture to my friend who has the exact phone I do and also my wife who has the iphone 4. They are both receiving this message
"Your phone is not compatible with this message type or size. Portions of this message will not be displayed."
Yet pics I send to my friend who has verizon go just fine. Is there some setting I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

does your phone ask you if you would like to resize them when you try and send...if so are you selecting yes
are there any other changes that you have made like:
freezing thesms/mms app
using a different sms app
etc etc
and then the same goes for their end...
have they made any changes, do they receive pics from others and only not yours

I am using go sms and I've tried stock sms. I haven't froze any sms apps. It doesn't ask me to resize, just the usual compressing or resizing message it normally gives without prompting for a user response. My friends infuse is stock and not rooted and my wifes iphone 4 is jailbroken but nothing has changed anytime recently with it. The apps I have frozen is just media hub. Yes they can receive pics from others and send them as well.
Edit: I have media hub, maps, and news & weather frozen.
Actually it just reads "converting to multimedia message" no prompt for anything. Very frustrating as to why mainly verizon people are getting my pics and not others. Thats how it seems anyway.
As far as trying to send pics that I actually took with my phone then forget about it. Longest I've had it sit is about 15 minutes before I get pissed and just delete the send. Those stay stuck on "sending" and never go anywhere.

I use handcent...in the settings there is an option of "max mms message size limit"
I believe you want that to be 2mb...anything over that will not send to some phones.
that has been the only instance where some people did not receive my msgs.
Have you tried on wifi and network? I have not noticed the issue on att, but on sprint you could not send or receive mms while on wifi
those are the only things I can think of

I do currently have it set to 4g 5M for the photo size. I could give that a shot. Still odd that it would not send to my friends infuse I have tried wifi and att network and home I have the 3g microcell which is NOT worth the $200. I'm kinda pissed I bought it.
If you want full bars yet calls cut in and out and you want to resend each text about 4 times cause they will instantly fail (happens no where but when I'm connected to microcell) then pick one up lol
But yea the mms issue happens elsewhere as well.

I kept the size the same for now but unchecked preserve image size and now it seems the pics send. Yesterday it would be stuck on sending. I can only test with people at work. The ones with issues are asleep right now. Hopefully that or the 2m image size fixes the issue

My Carrier (Rogers) allows me to block SMS as well as phone calls via their web site. Worst case scenario... change your number.

Just leave your phone on and let the messages come through. If your phone freezes leave the back door off and just do a battery pull it will run its cycle.
I am in search of an app to text over wifi. At my sisters house I don't get good service and I have people to text...but everyone is all about the whatsapp messanger but I cannot for the life of me figure it out... they say they will send me a message to verify but I never get a message :/ I deleted it and reinstalled it but no luck so any other ideas? Or help with that?

I think you can use google and keep your number. I remember I set it up but didn't want to pay to use my original number or something like that. I can't remember.

I use Text+ and have found it to be great. Though it does give a different number my wife just put it in her address book as my tablet. I can at least use it both on my phone and tablet and still have the same number for both.
I might have to try one of these. When I go hang out a my cousins house my phone switches the network to telcel since we are close to the border so this would help me out some.
Gosms is nice..
*Kingpin... get it?*
I use mysms. I can use it from the PC, tablet and phone, and it syncs the message throughout all my devices. Its also free from the market.
google voice does this... works great

This is what I use on my Kindle Fire, and it works alright. Not sure if it has a notification alert.
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.

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.

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

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.
