Yo I got t-mobile service on my mediapad x2 texts are working fine, maybe check ur APN settings, and I have it sim slot 1
Thanks for reply
I have 703-L android 5.0
Last year: tried many texting apps, senior XDA member checked my APN settings, SIM in slot one (it worked in prior phone, and everything else working except receiving texts, once I moved the SIM to my new X2.
ANYONE:
I was curious if Marshmallow 6.0 upgrade could be a fix? or has a ROM come out that could fix this issue? Also wondering, should a non-developer, attempt rooting and adding ROMs? Or am I asking for trouble? I want to clean out garbage apps and have just a regular basic android OS! does anyone know X2 experts that can do these fixes (if so: contact details and costs if you know? I love this X2 phone and am willing to pay if someone can fix it.
Thank you in advance

If you have 2 Sim Cards for one phone number, SMS can only be received by one of them.
This can be changed by a phone call to t-mobile.
Does the the stock text messaging app allow group conversations with MMS (as opposed to sending a single SMS to each recipient)?
The XZ Premium appears to be using Android Messages as the stock SMS/MMS app and that app doesn't allow group MMS on my Xperia XZ for some reason. The setting doesn't even show up in the app's settings.

I'm in the same situation and looking into it.
I hate it when people do this, but my solution is ALWAYS to install Textra. There are a lot of free options..

Installed Textra. Yes, it's awesome and using it now. Thanks.
Stock text, phone, and sometime keyboard are many times useless. They only put them there out of necessity to make the phone work. They don't worry about the built in apps because they know many, if not most, users will replace them with something more to their liking from the play store, including a different launcher. I just wish they would allow us to DELETE the crap that we don't want that we will never use... disabling the stuff is not good enough. That is why I am looking to root.
Oreo has group message now.
It seems that group messaging got added to the stock app in an update at some point over the last few months. I didn't even realize as I've been using the excellent Textra messaging application. I don't have Oreo yet on my Premium from the UK (G8141).
It sounds like this isn't an issue anymore but just to clarify for you guys it's because of the firmware. I previously had the HK firmware, which had group messaging disabled in the android messages app (the option didn't appear). I flashed the CE1 firmware and group messaging options appeared in the android messages menu. Right now I know that the US,CE1, and FR firmware all have group messaging.
The only issue I've for the first few months aside from group messaging was I couldn't share news feed links or map locations on my XZ Premium. When I try to add a link to a message, it brings up a message that I must use stock messaging application. However, that is not the case now. Textra does it all.
I think what I said is wrong actually, because I seem to have lost the options for MMS in the app. So maybe it is carrier related, because when I first flashed the phone the options were there. It's weird because my wife has the phone with the US firmware and the MMS options have been there on hers but not on mine. It's only been about a day and the MMS options have disappeared for me.
One thing I noticed when I was messing around with the XZs and XZ1 is that the US firmware was the only one with group MMS sending enabled. With other countries, I could see the option until I stuck my sim card in. I was able to narrow it down to one .sin file with my XZ1. I think it was OEM-*.sin. So I could flash everything to a non US firmware but use the US OEM_*.sin file and get MMS with the fingerprint sensor. However, I was able to figure out a way to enable the fingerprint sensor on the US firmware by just using another country's system_*.sin and vendor_*.sin files.

After searching online a bit I saw that others ran into this issue and that it was related to the sim card, others have had success with contacting the carrier and getting them to solve it eventually. I am trying to decided what would annoy me more, having to flash my phone repeatedly with updates manually, or contact AT&T repeatedly until they can find a solution...

Still not seeing this on my USA hardware flashed with CE1 with an AT&T SIM. Like others have mentioned, the option was there before I put in my carrier's SIM -- now, it's gone.
I would really like this issue to be fixed. Such a shame, as Oreo has really beefed this phone up.
Didn't have it with 8.0 and got it with 8.1 Malasyia.

Again, pretty sure this is a carrier problem and will have to contact them. This isn't such a thing as USA hardware as there are only two models of this phone, single sim and dual sim. My wife has the dual sim with USA firmware and group messaging is working fine. I have a dual sim but with FR firmware and group messaging option goes away when I insert the sim card, and it wouldn't surprise me if I were to flash the US firmware and see the group messaging option until the sim card is inserted. I have found posts only where others have had to escalate their issue with AT&T tech support in order to get the issue fixed.

What? You got 8.1 already?
Sorry, getting confused with my Pixel 2, which I flashed 8.1. I meant to say, I didn't have Group Message on 7.1.1 but got it after flashing 8.0.

I would LOVE to simply have USA firmware, but I need the fingerprint scanner.
I assume AT&T had to do something on their end vs a simple setting that needs to inputted. Ugh.

Ya I agree that's why I won't use US firmware, but like I said that likely won't fix the problem. I will be contacting AT&T this week to see if I can get it resolved. There seems to be an issue with their provisioning for certain sim cards. Very annoying as these services/features are working fine for others.

Let me know what happens. We're both in the same boat it seems!
Something interesting I have found is that Textra works perfectly for group MMS (just tested), and I didn't adjust or alter any settings, etc. I don't like the idea of paying $3.49 for an app that should have worked out of the box, but I guess no one is really to fault here: We aren't using the proper fw for our region, and AT&T hasn't tested this software on their network; they obviously can't guarantee a feature or function will work.

One problem with using Textra is that I can't get notification badges working so there's no quick way to tell when you've got new messages. Sure, it'll be on the lock screen or in the notification drawer, but if you use the fingerprint scanner to log in, you bypass the lock screen and if you don't think to check the drawer, it can be quite a while before you notice.
This is driving my wife crazy.
Hello Guys,
Recently, I've just bought a Vivo IQOO Neo 855 and i'm quit happy with the device. Even if there's not much info over those device over the web.
After few days, I was suddenly unable to Send any SMS/text message..... Those were working fine at the beginning.
MMS message like video, GIF, picture those are getting send properly.
I can receive a SMS but unable to send any.
Can you please help me out ?
I've already try different messaging apps, clear cache/data, remove sim, set APN manualy.....

1. Both Sim card have network and data enable and bills are paid ..everything working fine.
2.i can make call on both sim
3. i can receive call on both Sim
4.Both Card cannot send SMS ... but working fine sending MMS.
Since the beginning, I have in mind that my issue came from a ''hidden settings'' from the phone that might not be set properly because SMS was working fine in the first 2-3 days of owning this device.
Both sim card work good when I put them on my Old Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom. I can send SMS from the Zenfone.
My device is Vivo Iqoo Neo 855 (Model: V1936A) Firmware version # PD1936C_A_1.5.39 (Monster UI / Funtouch OS 9)

You have the same issue ?
Whats is your Device ?
check your SMSC be sure that it is correct.if so than u should preform FACTORY RESET SETTING (without losing ur deta of course)
Finally I've called my carrier and they Reset my profil. That's fixed my issue for few days. Afterward, it's coma back so called my carrier a second time, reset my profil again and than I change SMS app by default and this issue never came back for 3 month.
So basicly, in my mind, the default sms app of this Vivo Iqoo messed up with my carrier profil.
Hi there,
I've been searching the internet for someone with a similar problem but nothing helped me.
My phone : POCO F2 Pro 8GB version
What's happening?
The phone functions normally except for text messages. Most of the time they are just stuck on sending . I've had some success by clearing all data from Google Messages app , uninstalling updates and rebooting the phone but this is just a temporary fix (sometimes works for 20 minutes and then stops but most of the time it just doesn't help).
Things I tried:
- Changed the SIM card
- Put another SIM into the phone from a different carrier (worked but I only tried it for like 10 minutes)
- Tried a different messaging (Textra) , this worked for a limited time.
- Looked for anything off with the SMS Center Number but it's set correctly
What I noticed :
When logging into Mi Account, it tries to send a verification message but always fails . I logged out completely from the account but nothing.
I know it's not from the carrier since it worked fine with my old phone (S9+).
Could this be hardware related?
Thank you very much
Did you try to move SIM from Slot 1 to Slot 2, and then back? Redmi Note 5 had this issue for me, from time to time I had to change slots...
So far, on PocoF2 I don't have any problems with SMS.

This might be a different topic altogether ... I have strictly this topic, I can not activate my SIM card with MiCloud services. To activate it, the SIM tries to send a SMS to a +44xxx number and my carrier does not have a commercial relationship with +44xxx network, so the SMS is restricted by my carrier and not sent. Other than that, my SMS sending/receiving works fine.
Update : look like my phone sends texts normally without any problems to specific numbers like my work phone
Hi. I have the same issue. The problem is existing only when the VOLTE service is enabled. Try to move on 3G only or just stop Volte under 4G and it will be ok. Unfortunately Xiaomi are using some specific technology for volte sms sending and the your network provider does not support it. The phone is trying to send SMS through SS7 instead of SIP protocol when VoLTE is enabled. I'm trying to find a hidden menu where I can eventually switch or choose a protocol but without success.
I have the same problem too. did you find the solution?
Disable the chat feature in the messages app. That worked for me.
unfortunately it does not help, only after turning off the volte and restarting the phone it starts sending

Heyy man!!! Really appreciate your help for this fix!! I can send sms now if I turn off volte!! But that's too much to lose for just sending a text message... please update us if you find any permanent solution for this!! Respect+++++
Device: Poco X3 (indian)
Hi, i just upgraded my phone from vivo y19 to Xiaomi Poco x3 Pro. One thing i noticed about this phone is that, it works fine in almost every department except for one thing. The SMS messaging. I notied that whenever i send sms to some one, it takes too long to send and the result is they keep receiving my text multiple times. Sometimes 10x somtimes 12x, and its really annoying especially when i send sms to my higher ups at work. My network carrier has good connection, all apps are updated, even the firmware is up to date, but the problem still persists. I already tried using 3rd party sms app, hoping to fix the problem but its still the same. Already tried factory reset but the problem is still thesame..
anyone having the same issue? Im kinda frustrated lately because of this..
I have different issue on Poco M3. SMS works except that *some* incoming messages are eaten by MIUI and never arrive in inbox. Have disabled chat option and spam protection, tried with Textra too. Biggest problem on that issue: it is not reproducable, every time we try make some test it works. Have disabled VoLTE now, not sure it has any effect

This is not the right place to post, the problem may be similar but the phone is different.
There is a thread for your phone here or here .
if you want help it is necessary to give basic information such as rom etc ...
And the first thing to do before tinkering is to reset the phone.
I don't think phone model matters as this is some issue with MIUI 11 and 12 (also on Poco F1 and M3)

Hello
I have a dual sim Samsung S20 5G with 2 sim. Since the upgrade to Android 11 and UI 3.0 , I see only one call icon when I click a contact. The only option to choose from which sim to call is to set the phone to ask before, but is very annoying.
Also if I go on keypad, there is only one call icon.
Is any new setting moved somewhere else ?

hello
could you please give more details? What do you mean by “me do not support 5g” in relation with dual sim problem?
I have this problem too after update to android 11.
Any one know solution to fix that?
I have the same issue and I hope someone helps soon. I was ok with the setting of asking which sim to use before every call, but it doesn't work with android auto as it needs a default sim, so I can't make calls while driving.
The only solution that I've found by this moment is to manually open each contact and under the name you will find a button with 3 options: Ask everytime, SIM 1 and SIM 2. Selecting one or another will only use that SiM when calling (still frustrating if u want to use both SIMs to call one person)
