[Q] Text messages not being received

Seems like I've been having this problem regularly since I rooted/installed Fission ROM. I even SBF'ed back to original, but it didn't seem to fix my issue. I regularly have to reboot my phone to receive text messages.
I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason to it. I've tried re-programming my phone, but every time it attempts to reprogram, it makes a weird noise and reboots.
Am I experiencing a hardware problem, possibly? With the radio?
Honestly no idea where to go from here, but inability to receive text messages = huge problem.

Are you using it on Verizon or on a non-Verizon GSM/HSPA network?

I've got the same issue using my milestone1 but milestone2 has more ram, so that problem should'nt appear at this device.

I believe I'm on the Verizon network, I'm using it in places I've always had good coverage.
Update: I re-installed Fission 2.4.3 I had from backup and installed Handcent SMS. So far, so good. I haven't appeared to miss any text messages since then.
Still, it's a very odd situation. Hoping Gingerbread gives some more stability, though I'm not sure why it would matter.

This has happened to me on TMOUS and to a friend as well...I have SGII she has MyTouch 4g...after reboot, a flood of undelivered texts comes in...all with the same time so doesn't help when trying to see when originally sent.
I'm rooted/custom rom and she's bone stock...wondering if its a network issue or android problem

Issues with receiving texts on at&t network using custom rom

I have the AT&T version of the G2, its been rooted and I've tried both the Omni and Mahdi roms which i love, but im having major issues with not receiving incoming texts. Some come in, some dont, i have no idea why. When i text myself, they all come through. But i have had mamy people tell me that they texted me and i didnt respond. I did notice sometimes that when i restart my phone, i get a rush of text messages/emails once it powers back on. Also, i've tried both hangouts and regular aosp messaging apps and they are al lthe same. I following OP install directions for all roms and did a full wipe (as i always do anyways) when installing the roms.
Anyone else run into this issue or have any ideas?

Check your APN, I had this issue once before and switched my APN from AT&T LTE to AT&T PHONE. I still get LTE coverage without the SMS issues.

[Q] Moto G Problems with Messaging after 4.4.3 Update

My dad's phone got the 4.4.3 update yesterday. All of a sudden, his messaging (Hangouts) stopped working correctly. Sometimes, when he tried to send a text, Hangouts would just crash. He could still receive messages without a problem, but he was unable to send them. I thought it might just have something to with the bad weather/power outages because my Nexus 5 was having some problems sending messages (but my Hangouts wasn't crashing). But more recently, I have not had any problems, but now Hangouts crashes every time without fail on his Moto G. I tried using different SMS apps, but they all crashed when I tried to send messages, too (but receiving is fine). I've also restarted the phone, toggled airplane mode, removed and replaced the SIM, reverted Hangouts to its original, and quick booted and erased the phone's cache all to no avail. Could this problem have been caused by the update? Is the phone crapping out? Is it a carrier problem? Something else? Advice?

Same here with wife's phone. She makes me search for a fix. Who is your carrier? Hers is Straight talk. She just can't send text. Picture sending/receiving and incoming texts work ok.

At least we're not the only ones! Ours is T-Mobile. I haven't tried sending data messages. I'll have to try...
Update: MMS works fine. Just sent a picture to myself.

for all, have you try to update your hangouts after updating to 4.3.3 ?

Hangouts updated and crashing as well. I tried several different messaging apps with the same result

Have you tried disabling the messaging app and also clearing the data and cache for handouts?

Try this one: Settings > Apps > All > Reset preferences.

Did that as well as deleting and reentering APN settings.

Hey, we are back in the game! Thank you for your tip, it worked (at least in my case). Thanks again!

Well since it seems to have had some success, I'll try this in morning and let you know how it goes!

Are you guys sure the Messaging app was fully disabled after the update? Also, the only app default for Hangouts is to be set as the default messenger. Perhaps going into settings and setting it as the default messenger would do the same as reset app preferences without resetting all your other defaults.

It didn't make any difference for me. I couldn't send text messages no matter what app was default.

After messing with this some more, it seems the issue is if you disable the Messaging app, this behavior exists. If you keep it enabled, then Hangouts will work just fine. This is a pretty bad bug imho.

Can't enable messanging app

what if I've disabled the messanging app before the update and now I can't enable it anymore? is there a solution for that?

Im on 4.4.4 and can even seem to disable the messaging app on my moto g.

So this issue exist on the Moto X 4.4.4. Had Messenger disabled while on 4.4.2 and used Hangouts (past and current version) with no problems. After update to 4.4.4 problem started, but solved with the known solution of re-enabling/re-installing the Messenger app. The problem also exists if Messenger is uninstalled.
My question is does anyone know what is causing this issue? Is it a change in the Messenger app, Hangouts (unlikely), or the core OS (seems most likely to me).
Just curious more than anything, but I would like to remove the Messenger app if possible.

[Q] Problems receiving calls and sms on CM12 nightly

Hey guys,
So I'm experiencing issues receiving calls and SMS on my OPO ever since I flashed a CM12 nightly in early February. I don't know for sure that CM12 is the issue because I can't find anyone that has a similar problem, but since the problem didn't start until after the initial clean install of CM12, I'd say this is a good place to start.
I'm currently running CM 12-20150223-NIGHTLY-bacon and have not changed anything else (kernal, xposed, etc...). I use AT&T and am located in the US.
SMS Problem: First off, I use Hangouts as my SMS application. Sometimes I will go hours without receiving any text messages, only to have a dozen of them all come flooding in at once. Usually this is prompted by me sending myself an SMS. I also occasionally have trouble downloading group MMS.
Call Problem: About 80% of the time, calls do not come through to me. My wife tells me the phone rings twice and then goes to voicemail. I do not receive any notifications of missed calls but if the caller leaves a voice mail, then I do get notified of that most of the time.
Does anyone know if this is strictly a CM12 nightly issue, or is something else going on? If the answer is just a full wipe and clean install of another ROM I'm ok with that, just wanted to get opinions from the community before I proceed.
Thanks in advance!

I am having the same issue with SMS. I am running the 20150225 nightly.

Bump.
Still having this problem. Is the only way to fix it to go back to KitKat?

You have described my exact problem to a T. Any updates on this issue? I am thinking about going back to CM11. Every nightly I update in hopes that it resolves this issue but it hasn't yet.

No fix that I've found yet. Here is another thread on the issue that has seen more interaction than mine. http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/cm12-delayed-messages-missed-calls-t3049583
Have you come across any fix yet?

Yesterday there were several updates related to mms..if you still use cm12...then install cynadelta app select last bacon zip. Then click on refresh, it will check the latest bacon file and update only incremental data..means you dont have to download entire rom. Saves your time and data package.
Once you see all the components are working.. Take backup using twrp and keep it in USB.. Incase you need to restore.

Hi! I har the same problem after updating to cm12. I solved it by go to settings/ mobile network/ preffered network and chose 3g. That worked for me. Much longer batterylife too.

Setting connection to 3g is not a solution, but a workaround. For those of use who actually use LTE/4G, that's not really an option.
I have this same issue, but I'm using Carbon ROM. So it would appear it is a CM-based issue that has carried over.
Edit: I was just in contact with my carrier Tele2, and this is a known issue with 4G/LTE systems. If you have this issue, contact your carrier, and they can likely help you sort it out.

Flash something else more stable that better suits your needs for now. This rom is still a work in progress. There will be a few hiccups from time to time. Wait for the next update

Bumping the **** outta this. Same issue on a build one year later (Cm13 Oct 01/2016 Celox). Contacts and phone stopped working. So I replaced them with Google's AOSP variants from the play store. At that point, the phone reboots when I try to call. The 3g works wtf...
Edit:
Yes, this was sent from my SGH-I727R by I'd rather be making calls with this. Also, incoming calls work. Just outgoing is the issue. Can't be my radio, right? Cm11 or 10 whatever it was worked flawlessly on the same one.
Edit2:
Ok, so after jerking around the apps, disabling/re-enabling the system dialer, etc., I received a call from my friend. At the point, all four soft keys stopped working while the calling issue completely fixed itself. After a reboot, the soft keys and the calling work flawlessly 0.0
Typical Android issues...
Although my friend is complaining about some beeping noise coming from my end during a call. Will look into it.
So current fix (for now): disable/re-enable the inbuilt contacts and dialer apps, reboot, enable them, clear their data, cache, whatever it takes, etc. Keep doing so until it magically fixes itself. Maybe try getting a buddy to call you and pick up. That is all I can think of in order to reproduce such weirdness :/
