[Q] Blank texts? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Back when i was on 44s, i had no issues with delayed texts, blank texts or anything else. On the new kitkat update, and on lollipop im getting these issues. not often but i still get them. delayed has only been once or twice and could be down to low signal, but people have said my texts have gone through blank? i have to rewrite it for it to send, if i copy and paste it wont work.. is it a bug or something?

Sprint MMS app erased all my SMS.

For the past while, my Sprint Touch Pro has lagged and sometimes even locked up, when I bring up the text messaging tab after receiving an MMS message. I ignored it, as I really don't receive them that often. However, this last time I got one, and I was able to open it without my phone locking up. I viewed the picture, closed the sprint MMS app, and watched as the phone erased all 1800+ regular SMS text's before my eyes. I checked the deleted items folder, and only things I manually deleted are there, my sent items folder is still full, and all my old MMS messages still show up in the inbox. After coping with the fact that my years worth of texts was gone (Sprite Backup wasn't doing it's job right), I went on with my day. Turns out, whenever I get a couple texts, if I get an MMS, they're all erased. Or hidden. Or something else really annoying..
Anyone had a similar problem? I'm getting ready to install Arcsoft, but want to make sure my old texts aren't just locked up somewhere before I remove the default app.
xhorntail, the same issue is affecting a few of us using the NRG rom: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=69545&page=2217. Not sure what's causing it or how to make it stop though. MMS is built into this ROM so i cant even stop it.

[issue] Can't Send Text Message Pics

I don't know why my phone is so wacked out...but now I can not send Pics in Text Messages. It trys to send but just gets stuck on "sending". Any suggestions?
Maybe try toggling your data connection off/on. Or, sent out a regular SMS. Sometimes that will help push em thru. I've had issues sometimes where they'll hang like that until I receive a text, then they push thru, but only on certain ROMs.
Hope this helps at all.

I had the same problem before, then I learned that my data had to be on in order to send or receive messages through text messages. I'm not sure if this is because of my carrier or if that's just how it is.
Won't work over Wifi, which seems kind of silly.
You need to have the data on to send MMS (picture messages) the carriers do not generally count that against the data you use.

[Q] Text, Data, Calling.... UGH

Ok, so I was minding my own business texting my wife and my phone starts to act up. I ran a fix permission and when I rebooted I couldn't send texts or make/receive calls. I could however receive texts and send emails over my data. After much flashing of ROMs and restoring my phone back to stock I did this (post 4): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=207588. This fixed my text and calling issues but now I can't get onto the Play Store or download any Verizon software updates because is says the server isn't communicating. I have been working on this since 9 this morning and am ready to throw my phone across the room into a very HARD wall.
Can someone with a brain still intact help me PLEASE??? I am at my wits end.

text messages are delayed and sometimes lost

Hey guys...been having some issues, was wondering if anyone could tell me what's going on.
I'm on CM10, and i've had the same issue on several different daily builds. I noticed that I wasn't receiving a certain number of incoming text messages. I have been using (not at the same time) DeskSMS and Mighty Text to text via my computer, and I noticed I would recieve a text on there sometimes several minutes before it would show up on my phone. It seems that texts in both directions are going very slowly, because conversations are disjointed and out of order. When a large text is split into several smaller ones, they come sometimes a minute or two apart.
I have tried wiping my cache, installing different builds...everything aside from a full data wipe. Is that the next step, or is this a Verizon issue or something? Thanks!

Nexus 5 on Sprint is no longer sending or receiving SMS

My phone has suddenly decided to no longer send or receive sms at all on Sprint. I've been running Sabermodded SlimKat for months with no issues whatsoever and just the other day SMS suddenly stopped. It says the text sends in any messaging app I use but it never actually seems to send. If I try to text myself to test it also I get no messages back when though it says they all send. The weird thing is MMS is working fine, I can send myself pictures and any one of my contacts, but I do not see their SMS messages or my own, none are getting through. I tried wiping and flashing over to 5.0 (Cataclysm) instead and I still cannot send sms. I've tried updating my PRL and Profile many times, Reflashing a flashable Sprint APN zip, manually setting APN in hangouts, messenger, textra, qksms etc. I've tried flashing different radios on 4.4.4 (before I flashed 5.0 now I just have the final L preview radio) and I have even tried removing the sim card and rebooting before placing it back in. Has anyone encountered this issue before? I am at a loss.
Try downgrading to 1x only and see if it works?

Just tried it, sms still isn't going through, 1x only 3g only or LTE only.
Might try going back to the stock rom and seeing if it works then. That would probably be the easiest way to make sure it isn't the device or the rom you are using.
Are you able to make calls?
Does the data connection work still?
Was texting removed/blocked on your account?

Did you take an OTA? Update to Lollipop? If so, you may need to flash the Sprint fix.
After a lot of trial and error I ended up calling sprint since I've never had just sms fail while mms still worked. Turns out my MIN number wiped itself (somehow?) and have since gotten it resolved. Sadly I don't really have the slightest idea how it happened since I had been using the same kitkat rom as my daily driver for months. Thanks for the suggestions and attempts to figure out what was wrong.
