[Q] SMS Won't send only receive - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My XT926 does everything it should do except send SMS messages
I'm currently running cm10.1.3-rc2-xt907, though it's not worked with any of the previous CM releases or Xenon that I've installed. It did originally work on stock but I don't want to go back there!
I'm using it in the UK.
I've tried differant roms. I've flashed the GSM fix, I've tried Handcent, Go SMS Pro, but nothing works.
Can anybody help??

Yup, I have exactly the same problem. The original stock ROM did work, but since flashing a new ROM, I tried all the SMS programs, I tried changing my SMSC in the phone options -*#*#4636#*#* to be correct for my provider, didn't help at all.

Why are you running a ROM for the XT907 on the XT926? The XT907 is pretty close so it probably will work, but if you flash the correct ROM SMS should work fine.
Cyanogenmod ROMs for the XT926 are: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=stable&device=xt926
For what it's worth, I am running 10.1.3 stable on mine, and I have used it on a GSM network (TMobile) without any issues with SMS sending. Make sure you have the correct APNs and edit build.prop to comment out the LTEv7CDMA line (something like that, near the bottom). That should be all you have to do.
EDIT: The 10.2 ROMs have problems with SMS, see the development forum for more info. But according to your post you are using 10.1

I originally installed the cm10.1.3 stable for XT926 but at the time I wasn't receiving data or able to send sms. I flashed the gsm fix found on this forum and at that point it seemed to change to xt907.
Anyway I've followed your suggestion, reflashed 10.1.3, put false against LTEv7CDMA in build.prop and rebooted. Entered the APN as per the suppliers website and still nothing.
Still no sending sms and this time no data (which I had with the gsm fix). Calls and incoming sms work fine.
I don't want to give up with my phone, any other suggestions?

Are these dirty flashes or clean flashes? What is the network mode set to under Settings --> More --> Mobile Networks?
Also, the line you needed to # out was telephony.rilV7NeedCDMALTEPhone, is that the one you added a # in front to (or set to false)?
Edit: Can you link the GSM fix you flashed previously? I've never seen that for the 926 on 10.1.3 -- the only fixes I can find are for the 925 or 10.2?

[Q] Nexus S 4G 4.0.4 issues with radio

So I've been trying to upgrade my phones from a custom ROM to the official 4.0.4 releases on Nexus S 4G. So I flashed the IMM76D signed zip (flashable one) and got it working. A bit after this, I noticed that I wasn't getting SMS messages. I'm not going to bore you guys with a backstory, so I'm just going to say what I did.
I used "SMSC Updates" found on the Cyanogenmod Wiki to update my SMSC settings (tried all of the following numbers: 07918188561627F7, 07917140140000F0) after seeing it as a suggestion somewhere else about SMS issues. I re-flashed the radio (the new one that released with 4.0.4), and I still cannot get it to work.
I've tried several ROMs, too. Un-rooted, re-rooted, had problems with recovery (solved those, though), and re-rooted again. Also, attempting to use 4G settings crashes the phone.
Does anyone have any suggestions for what I should do? As far as I know, I'm able to send SMS, but not receive. Could this be a Sprint issue?
Thanks.

When you say new radio, do you mean LC1? I have had that radio for a week and all is good. If I were you I'd take a screenshot of my current setup and post it on here. I would try to, if you haven't already updating Prl and Profile and call Sprint and get them to reprovision your phone.
Hope you get it fixed soon. Sorry I couldn't be of more help..

My wife's S4G is doing the same thing after OTA: can't send, only receive SMS. MMS, on the other hand, are fine.
I've also tried the mentioned CM SMSC update, did not work; tried (*#*#72786#*#*) re-provision, but no luck.

[Q] No data connection with any Jellybean ROMs

Hi,
I recently decided to flash a jeallybean ROM since most of them are getting really great and we don't have any word on the official update. Unfortunatly, I'm now unable to get a data connection on my HOX. It's the rogers version which I unlocked and I'm now using on the Bell network. Before flashing, LTE worked fine with the stock sense ROM, but now I don't have any data at all.
ROMs I've tried :
AOKP, MIUI and CM10.
I've tried to : set the data connection to GSM only, nothing, to LTE only, nothing, to WCDMA only, nothing. I've tried all the APNs I've found (pda.bell.ca, pda2.bell.ca, inet.bell.ca). On AOKP it sometimes said "Error while searching for network". WiFi, texts and calls work fine.
If anyone could help me, it would be really appreaciated. Otherwise I'll just revert to Rogers ROM. Thanks alot!
I cant offer any help, but I'm having a similar issue recently. I was on a nightly build of CM10 (from 10/06/12 I believe). I upgraded to a newer build (from 10/10) and I get no data over cell. I flashed it back and things were fine.

Before flashing jelly bean roms you need to flash a sense rom then do full wipe and install cm10 or aokp..

Every device has its own nuances, as do various ROMs. So I'd advise posting this in the forum specific to your device.
Still no data connection.
I am having the same issue with my AT&T One X phone.
The phone was running 2.20 before it was unlocked/rooted. Installed TWRP, was a noob and forgot to save a backup, fastbooted the boot.img, flashed AOKP and CM10 successfully. With both of these ROMs, I could not get internet to work via cellular connection. I have tried everything with the APNs (even had AT&T help me setup APN settings) and still no mobile data connection. I can still receive/send SMS/calls, use bluetooth and wifi, just no mobile internet.
I'm not entirely sure what to do next. I attempted to go back and flash the UrDroid 4.1 Stock Sense ROM, but after fastbooting it's boot.img and attempting to flash with TWRP, I got a signature verification failure. Got scared and restored back to AOKP (I remember to make a backup this time.)
Thoughts? Sorry for being a noob.

I am in a "4G" area (HSPA+) but I am also a hour drive away from LTE. I have tried APNs for both, but AT&T recommended I stick to the LTE APN. AT&T had me go to Settings->More->Mobile Networks->Network Operators and the phone just sat there searching without finding anything. I just did that above operation again and it found AT&T and I selected it. It spins on "Registering on AT&T..." for a few minutes and eventually errors out "Cannot register on this network at this time."
Have you tried switching off LTE by selecting "GSM/WCDMA Auto" in Settings?
I've had data problems on certain ROMs, where turning off LTE got the HSPA+ connection working.
In that case, it was probably a base of build.prop not playing well with AT&T's network. Although I would think the ROMs you mentioned would have these issues worked out at this point (and for some time now).

When I switch to "GSM/WCDMA Auto", it immediately switches itself back to the LTE setting. This is concerning.

[Q] Radios / Jelly Bean question

I have been using an ICS ROM (PrimoS v4.1) on my Desire S for some time with no problems, but recently have tried flashing a number of JB ROMs (e.g Andromadus, CM10 and JellyTime). I have found that when using any of these JB ROM's, I am unable to get a data connection and the APN list is blank. Despite many attempts to add APNs manually or by use of APN backup apps, I have failed to add an APN to the list.
Do I need to update the radio to solve this problem? I never did this when going from original HTC Gingerbread to the ICS ROM.
Please excuse the ignorance on this subject. I've read somewhere that there is a danger of bricking the phone when flashing radios, hence my reluctance to try without good reason!
I live in the UK and use Virgin Mobile.
Current radio is: 20.281.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
All help appreciated - I've had a tantalising glimpse of the wonders of Jelly Bean and I'm desperate to get my data connection working!
TIA
I can't say whether changing radios will fix your problem. I use Radio 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 on CM10 and have no problems.

Thanks for the reply BillGoss.
I took the plunge and updated my Radio to 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 with no problems. My phone continues to work fine with the PrimoS (ICS) ROM, but when I flashed JellyTime, still no APN's and I was unable to create one, hence I can't connect to the 3G network. D'oh!
Correct me if I'm wrong but with ICS you don't have the probelm and with JB you have the problem
that you have no and can not set the APN values, Q, dit you have a clean ROM installed.
I had this problem once when I tested a ICS version with sence 4. Later when I installed a CM10 version
I had no APN so I did a factory reset an de problem was gone. To be sure I wiped al the data on my device
and restored a earlyer nandroid backup. Later I tested a lote of ROMS but so far I don't have the APN issue yet.

Yes HypnoCondor, I always do a full wipe before flashing the ROM. I've now done a ot of Googling and trawling XDA threads and have found that the issue seems to be confined to CyanogenMod-based ROMS, not specifically CM10 and covering a lot of different phones. I'm not techie enough to fully understand, but it seems that CM is not registering the SIM card properly and hence the APN list is always blank and can't be edited/saved manually.
What's particualrly confusing is that I recently flashed the CM10-based CyanogenMod 10 Beta Builds [4.1.2][ANDROMADUS 3.x][Frontcam] ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776256) and much to my surprise it worked! My APN list was populated and all was fine. Unfortunately , after rebooting the phone, the APN's were gone and I've been unable to get them back, despite trying every trick in the book gleaned from XDA users with similar problems.
This is very frustrating, because I really love this ROM
Looks like I'll end up going back to the PrimoS (non-CM, ICS) ROM so that I can get my data connection back when I'm away from WiFi. That's a real bummer, but I'm damned if I've been able to find a fix for this issue.
Just for future reference: being unable to set APN has nothing to do with radio and has everything to do with the ROM you're using. But you've already found that out yourself.

Data not working after installing custom ROM

Hi. I've recently got into to ROM'ing on my Razr HD (XT926). I've tried about 3 different ROMs, and I'm currently using the Liquid Smooth ROM. My problem is that with every ROM I've used, the data isn't working. I'm running at&t thanks to modem unlocking the phone. I can make and receive calls as well as receive text messages, however, I can't send text messages and I can't access an Internet connection through the network's data. I've tried doing the modem unlock a few more times, although that hasn't done anything. Has anyone experienced this problem, and is there a way to fix it? Thanks.
Try using the Roms for the xt925.

Sometimes we need to manually set the access point names (APN). It happens to me everytime I flash a new rom. Check on Settings > More... > Mobile networks > Access Point Names, or similar. Now, if missing, you must add every APN your carrier uses to establish a data connection.
Hope it helps.

This sort of worked. I was able to get my connection back, but it keeps flickering on and off. I've tried adding all the APNs, but it will only let me save two. Every time I add another and press the "save" button, nothing happens and the APN doesn't appear. Sometimes I can send text messages whenever the data shows up, but most of the time, it doesn't. This is getting really frustrating.
Anyone on this forum with an XT926 have it running on at&t and on a custom ROM?
Well the xt926 is strictly cdma I believe. While the xt925 is a gsm version.

Glad it "sort of" worked. Not showing anything or more than two APN it's a common bug between roms, as far I can recall it does add them anyway. Just being curious, which rom and build are you using? Are you sure your XT926 is GSM?

If the custom rom is based on 4.2.2 or 4.3 => please check your baseband version. Because the new custom rom is build base on the new baseband firmware.
I use old baseband firmware VANQUISH_BP_1045.711.53.20P on my xt926.
I replace the files on /etc/firmware on the custom rom before flash it to my xt926.
And to make it easier for me I build some flash able zip files that replace the /etc/firmware with the old baseband firmware.

[Q] SMS won't send. Can receive/send MMS calls and Data

The Problem/Symptoms: I've been running a version of last CM10.2 for the past year. On February 20th, I was able to send a single SMS and then subsequent texts failed. I could still receive SMS, send/receive MMS, send/receive calls and send/receive data. If I toggle airplane mode/reboot I can send another SMS and then subsequent sms are undeliverable.
What wont work: Flashing to CM11 does not change the issue.
Disabling Voice+ does not change the issue
Factory Reset does not change the issue
Workarounds: Toggle Airplane mode
Switching Mobile Network to CDMA only (not permanent)
Change your number to a different area code
Going back to a Touchwiz based ROM
The Solution
net-cat said:
Alright. I think I've refined my process and it results in having a newer radio as well as not having to ODIN things or do dd commands.
NOTE: This isn't fully tested. When I did this, my phone wasn't showing the issue. I did this after doing my original procedure, but the GPS stopped working after I updated the radio from VRALF2 to VRBMB1. You shouldn't need to do the original procedure for this to work, but I haven't tested that. At the very least, the original procedure still works and this one can be used afterward if you need the newer radio. (GSM support...)
Ideally, we'll want to get to a procedure that doesn't use ODIN or dd. Hopefully this is a step in that direction.
Requirements:
A rooted stock ROM of the VRUCML1/4.3 vintage. I used Scott's Stock Rooted Knox Free VRUCML1 - 4.3 - DeOdex - V2. (Thread here.)
VRBMB1 AIO Flash, available here. (Thread here.)
I'm going to assume you know how to boot into and use recovery.
NOTE: Do NOT let the stock ROM install any updates.
Starting with my CM11 M3 install, I did a nandroid backup. (Recovery is CWM Touch 6.0.4.5, but I doubt that matters.)
Flash the VRBMB1 AIO.
Wipe data and cache.
Flash the stock ROM.
Boot into the stock ROM.
The reprovisioning seems to happen as a part of ROM's initial boot up.
Send a few text messages to test. (I sent them to Twitter.)
Launch the Maps application, turn on your GPS and let it get a lock. If you don't, when you boot back into your ROM, you probably won't have working GPS.
This would be a good time to back up your IMEI if you haven't already done so.
Reboot into your recovery, wipe data/cache and restore your nandroid backup.
At this point, you'll be running your preferred ROM with a less archaic radio than my previous post.
DO NOT UPGRADE YOUR RADIO. The moment I upgraded my radio, the problem came back!
CM11 M3 will work just fine with the old radio. I've rebooted several times over the last few hours and it still works fine. (Time will tell if it's a long term fix or not.)

This exact thing happened to me. I tried many fixes with no luck. After hours of hacking around in settings, I found a ROM of verizon's 4.3 OTA update and flashed that through ODIN. My texts are working just fine again. Kind of a cheap method of fixing my problem. I wish I could have taken more time to find a fix, but I needed to be able to communicate with people that day.
Stock 4.3 is kind of lame:
-4.3 is killing my battery faster than ever. CM11 had me going for days without charging and now I've needed to charge everyday.
-Stock 4.3 is laggier/slower than CM11. It tends to stutter for me.
-4.3 came with a new boot loader which no developers have exploited to install custom ROMs yet. This leaves you stuck with Verizon bloat. I hate all these damn apps. Going to try to safe root & see if I can't do some cleanup work.
Enough ranting. Just wanted to let you know you are not alone with this problem. Hopefully someone will figure it out. Missing my cyanogen mod already
It seems this problem has happened on other phones also running Cyanogenmod. I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2654822
It looks like the symptoms have all showed up at the same time approximately. (February 19th, 2014). Still looking for a better answer than going back to stock TW...
Edit: And another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2659280 This one suggests its all AOSP roms. But it seems many people are unaffected... I don't understand why/how.

SO this is the current status that I know.
The problem happens for everyone with a 570/717 area codes + on verizon + running Cyanogenmod (possibly any AOSP) + while connected to LTE which started on Feb 20th (the day before KitKat came out offically).
Current Workarounds:
Switch to TouchWiz based Roms
Switch your radios to be CDMA only
Call verizon and switch your number to a different area code
I know the workarounds all suck but that all I know for now. Switching SIM cards won't work. If I anyone knows anything more please feel free to let me know.
I'm 717

I have still be unable to find a solution for this issue. I think I have to give up on CM and go back to a TW based. If I hear anything new I'll update the post but I don't have the time to be wasting on my phone at the moment. If someone finds or hears of a fix or if it magically goes away as it started, please post it.
And spread the word if there are any other ROMs that this is occurring on. It seems the pool of those affected is just too small.
I have already had to give up. Been running slows tw. I take it Verizon didn't get back to you?

Godspeed my friend.
Anyone try aosp to see if fixed yet?
Nope. Still having issues. Tried gummy and cm. TW based roms are fine. In 717.

I try every other day. 717 for me. Remaining hopeful it's fixed... One day...
What gapps are you using? I have been using the PA 0Day gapps. Going to try the gapps package from invisblek and see if that makes a difference.

It won't. It isn't software dependent. People who had already flashed builds prior to the 20th magically had issues starting on that date, so it isn't a problem with new builds, and it only happens to those in the 717-570 areas so it isn't a problem with AOSP code. It has to be a Verizon network issue, I just have no idea how.

I have run TW base roms almost 100% of the time. Prior to the 20th, I had flashed cm11 3 or 4 times to see if camera worked and was never on it more than a day. I also had issues where music in my sd card wasn't being found but it was fine on TW. Could it be the unified build causing an issue? I have no issues on Clean Rom 8, wicked sensations or old and slows stock based roms.
*Edit* I have installed Gummy and CM 11 with PA Mini Modular apps and the CM Gapps from Invisiblek, let it set up. I then shut it down, removed battery and sim and then put everything back in and still the same issue. 1st text message goes through, then the rest after that just fail. I tried regular message app, Hangouts and Verizon messaging. All same results. I go back to my CR8 backup and all is fine. It's bizarre because everything else seems to be working fine and is very fast & smooth.

It can't be an issue with the unified builds because going back and flashing an older build yields the same results. If you're willing to make the trade-off, you can set your phone to CDMA only. Texts will send, but you'll have no 3G or 4G.
I'm ok with using CR8, Beans or other stock roms. Can't see paying for LTE and not using it lol. Was curious to see how aosp has been coming along and sms was really the only issue I was having.

I was using masta's 10.2 build for over 6 months without even thinking about flashing new builds. The 20th is when the problem started for me. Upgrading to CM11 didn't change it. I just installed Hyperdrive and everything is back to normal.
I wish I could go back to CM but it just doesn't work in this area. And I don't know what I can do about it,

Basically. I've talked to a few friends who have worked for carriers and stuff, and everyone is stumped as to how something like this can even happen. Luckily I'm pretty much always in WiFi so I can survive on CDMA only.
