[Resolved] Fixed. Asking for Help with text messages not sending. - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
If this is in the wrong forum please move to correct one. i didnt know where to post.
First I would like to say that I have searched google and forums for an answer to this question and have found some fixes, none fixed mine. So here goes my first post.
I have a LG Genesis
Stock froyo
Rooted
Supercharged by ZeppelinRox, with sd tweak and 3g turbocharger.
2 days ago text messages wouldn't send, they just hang on "sending..."
That day it fixed itself after a couple hours and sent the messages out. Without doing anything. I couldn't try to fix it because I was at work.
Yesterday it stopped sending messages again and is still not sending.
Things I have tried:
Reinstalled gmail (I uninstalled it weeks ago because I never use it).
Cleared messaging app data ( on both stock messaging and handcent )
Wiped caches
Dialled *228 on us cellular this updates the phone somehow.
Pulled battery
Checked all apps for startup issues (few weeks ago I disabled startups on certain apps)
That's all I can think of that I have done.
If anyone has any answers or anything I have missed pls all input is appreciated.
Thank you.

Re: Help with text messages not sending.
Some past text messages that were "sending" for 24hrs just went through(but not all). I have a log saved but I can't figure out what it means. I am hoping someone is able to help me figure out what it means. If anyone can help.
here is the logs
Also, mms messages are sending , just sms messages are stuck on "sending..."

Okay, I figured out the problem.
I had disabled the boot completed receiver on the stock messaging app. I use handcent instead.
After I reenabled then messages started sending again.
D'oh!

[Q] Blank Contacts >> ALL messages forwarded to contacts

Hey Everyone,
My mom recently purchased the Inspire and was using it just fine for about 2 weeks until today when a very odd issue occurred, her phone began sending out and forwarding every single message to contacts on her contacts list example:
I had 10 messages to and from her all of them were forwarded to me and as a result I received a spam of messages that basically replicated an entire line thread of SMS messages. Furthermore, when we rebooted her phone every single contact she had was missing and all of her messages were gone and began to resync from either Google or HTC Sense which I'm not sure she even set up if it even requires it for that matter, anyways once again the phone began to send out messages again and replicated entire threads. If anyone has experienced this problem and possibly knows a way to fix it it would be very much appreciated
I had this problem when I used Bluetooth to transfer from my black berry bold. Going into the messaging app and force closing and clearing data fixed it for me.

argh! Can't send text messages

I'm on Orange (UK) and 2 days ago I lost the ability to text one number. I tried deleting the queue of unsent messages and reset the settings within the messaging app. This didn't help and I now can't send any SMS at all, they instantly fail. Annoyingly, they work fine with my T-Mobile Sim. I've tried updating the message centre number with the one given by Orange but it's not worked. I've now done a full wipe and reflashed my ROM and I still can't send messages. Everything else works fine.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Is it something on the carrier side.... Seems to me if it works fine with another sim then it's either a problem with the carrier or maybe you have the wrong apn settings.... But i am not sure that effects text messages
Also this might be a dumb suggestion but maybe try downloading a third party messaging client like chomp

Thanks for the reply, I agree that it's likely to be a network issue, I was just hoping to avoid a long call to customer service!
EDIT: I got them to send me the settings via SMS and everything's back to normal again. Phew!

[Q] A few issues with SMS messaging

Might be a slow work day, so I'm hoping I can get rid of some the little bugs that have been bothering me....
1. Sometimes I will receive the same text message multiple times, up to about 10 but it's usually only one or two duplicates. This can happen over a period of about 20 minutes.
2. Messages get delivered several hours later or only after a reboot. There is not usually any indication that the sms failed to deliver. I sent a text yesterday to my brother, and it seemed to go out fine with no error message. After rebooting my phone today, I shortly thereafter received a confused text asking what I was talking about. The text I thought I had sent yesterday now appeared in our conversation with a timestamp of when I restarted my phone.
3. The stock messaging app doesn't give me any notifications at all. Obviously, that's not acceptable, so I'm stuck using a 3rd party sms app (handcent). Don't know if this is related, but I use Google Voice for my voicemail and that also doesn't give me notifications (have my voicemails sent to my gmail account as a workaround on that). If I open the apps my voicemails and texts are there, just no notification from the phone.
I know at least the first two issues could be an issue with the carrier (at&t), but I had none of these problems with an iphone prior to switching or when using the mediocre AT&T Messages app on this phone.
I was hoping these problems would magically disappear after rooting and installing a new ROM (viperXL), but that hasn't been the case.
Thanks for any help!

SMS not sending

Hi guys,
I am currently on Beanstalk v4.4 (rooted and unlocked bootloader)and I seem to have problems sending text messages. When replying to a text, the first text reply I send is able to go through but then subsequent texts I send have issues sending and the problem persists for about 30 mins or so at which point I am finally able to send one more message...
So all in all, I'm only able to send a SMS once in a while any ideas for a fix?

No current fix(other than going back to TW) but here is the most prominent discussion thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658572
The fix seems to be going back to TW and doing an NVrestore if you have a backup, reprovisioning if you don't. Then you can restore your nandroid and be back in business.

Texting problems

My one m8 is not rooted or modded in any way and I am having texting troubles. It doesn't matter what app I am in, sms texts take about two minutes to send and I sometimes receive duplicate texts from whoever I am texting. I have 4g with three bars and I dont know what the problem is. I can temporarily fix it by restarting my phone but after a couple minutes it goes back to normal. I have tried using hangouts, the htc default messaging app and verizon message and they all have the same problem.

Not sure whether this is the same thing, but my recipients are complaining about getting two of every text message from me. It doesn't matter whether I let Hangouts take over SMS or not. I've disabled the Verizon messaging app; I'm thinking of deleting it altogether. Wondering whether this is an artefact of the Sprint messaging app that is flashed with the extreme powersaver mode zip file.
First off sorry for bringing up this old thread but didnt see the sense in starting a new one.
Just wanted to add that recipients of my texts seem to pretty frequently receive duplicates. For awhile I was using Handcent but completely removed that and am using the stock messaging app with the same results in both. I have not flashed to extreme power saving mode referenced above as a possible culprit.
So with that said just curious if anyone else is experiencing this or has any possible solutions? I hate calling verizon but I may give them a call this week on it if I dont get any responses here and see what they say.
Bump. I came here to post a thread on the exact same problem. My texts almost never go through. I've googled it extensively but can't find a solution.

I know this is an old thread and I hate bumping something so old.. but as no one had posted a fix in here (and I'm sick of seeing failed to send messages in my sms app) I know of one workaround that has worked for me. In the default (messages) app, if you go into settings for sms and mms and change priority to High sms and mms work much better. I no longer see failed to send messages and they send in a few seconds rather than 30-60. The only problem is, within that same app, you see a red exclamation point next to every message you send. It's an eye sore but it's the only fix I've seen. I've had this issue on every sms app I've tried and just about every rom including stock. Hope this helps someone...
Edit: I tried finding that exclamation to just delete it from the message.apk but it's pulling it from somewhere else it seems. If anyone happens to know off hand please let me know. I'm going to keep looking for that icon to remove it. I wish this want an issue. It's these little things that drive me crazy.
Edit 2: I found it in the htc framework. com.htc.resources.apk for anyone interested. I'm removing that icon from my phone now... Hopefully it all works smoothly.
