Does anyone have issues with SMS texting? Not recieving SMS 50% of time - Vivo Nex Questions & Answers

Hey everyone!
Does anyone have any issues with SMS?
For some reason I don't receive half the texts that people send me. But they always receive texts from me.
Anyone else experiencing this? I'm with Koodo in Canada

Bump, Any solution here? Getting same issue

Which ROM version ? Which Country ? Did u try to change for another default SMS like Message from Google ?
Here last Global ROM, no issue ! French Network !

I had this problem when I uninstalled VIVO's default phone SMS app. Only way for me to fix it was to re-install the whole o/s.

Hi to all,
I am in the same boat. After reading your post i try to give all permissions to SMS app that i use (Mood) and i'll see...
I have Chinese ROM (S).

i have this problem , i downloaded Textra instead and it works great :good:

SMS problem

Hello,
Well guys I am having a strange problem. I am using RasbeanJelly for few days now. Well now since yesterday I cant send SMS to one particular contact. I can send SMS to all other contacts. And I am not blocked since I can call that person.
Now the strange part. I tried sending an sms to the contact whom I cannot send sms via GO SMS Pro and it was sent successfully.
So I guess its a problem with stock messaging only.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Praveer

[Q] Not Receiving SMS messages through Hangouts

Is anyone else having this problem?
I'm only getting very few messages through when people have told me they've text me, I have a few theories as to why this would be happening, but hoping someone has a solution:
As I've come from an iPhone, their phone is still trying to send as an iMessage
Google hangouts doesn't work properly yet
I've just ported over from O2 to Vodafone (serious mistake) which is causing the problem
If it's the latter I'll have to take the problem up with Vodafone, but just wondered if anyone else was getting a similar issue with Hangouts and normal messaging?
Cheers,
Joel
i can assure you it's 99% most likely that it's an imessage issue. i've gone through the hassle of trying to force a sign off of the imessage service and it's a major pita.
you need to get a hold of an iphone, and turn off the imessage service, it should start defaulting to sms on other people's iphones in a few hours/days, but it will immediately start giving your iphone using friends an error that the imessage can not be sent, they can then tell it to send as an sms, or if they have the option to revert to sms when imessage doesn't work it will do it automatically for them.
imessage is such a horrible system, and not being able to manually log out of it is very very annoying

Great thanks for the help. I'll give it a go and see if it's any better in a few hours.
No problem, it took almost a week for it to really stop trying for me

I'm on KK 4.2 and Hangouts continually doesn't save text messages sent to me. An app called Ghostly SMS and Mighty Text will show me a couple messages every so often that never show up in Hangouts. I noticed Hangouts also has an "Import SMS" option in settings but it doesn't resolve the problem. Have you found a fix for this?

I"m having an issue also. i've never had an iphone so i know thats not the problem..
I started noticing that when I send out group messages to my friends.. i get maybe 60 to 70 % of the responses.. I only know because my wife shows me the messages she received and i'm missing several almost consitantly.. it makes me wonder if i'm missing texts that are sent straight to me.
I thought originally it could have been hangouts.. so i switched to 8SMS.. still continued.. now i'm using the Stock AOSP messaging app and still missing texts..
As far as I know i'm not having issues with calls or missing calls..
i'm praying its just a matter of getting this mysterious 4.4.3 update...

Get Ghostly SMS from the Play Store. It captures all of your sms messages so even if Hangouts or any other app misses a message you'll see the notification from Ghostly. I turn off the sound notification in Ghostly, by the way, so my Nexus 5 doesn't get annoying with beeps. The "Move to Inbox" feature doesn't work on KitKat though
Toggle your default SMS "Account to show SMS in"

My wife had this problem on her N5. Solved it by going to Hangouts>Settings>SMS>"Account to show SMS in". Change it to SMS only account. Click back confirm the missing SMS messages appear. Then go back into Hangouts>Settings>SMS>"Account to show SMS in". Change it back to your gmail account to re-merge the SMS texts with your Hangouts messages.

[Q] SMS problems after installing Lollipop

Hello everybody
Yesterday i installed the 5.0 factory image from Google on my Nexus 5. Everything looked OK until i noticed that i couldn't send any SMS messages. Receiving worked fine. I even tried various SMS apps. All had the same problem.
Today i installed the 4.4.4 image. SMS was working fine again. After i sideloaded the update to 5.0 the problems returned.
Can anybody tell me how to fix this, because i'm running out of ideas. I really like Lollipop, but would like to be able to send a SMS once in a while.
BTW: I use vodafone NL
Thank you!

I have the exact same problem, unable to send sms/texts but recieving them just fine. I'm on hollandsnieuwe (which uses the vodafone NL network afaik). I have this problem since updating to the last developer preview (LPX13D) and it persists with a clean install of the official release (LRX21O).
So far I have tried:
- different apps (messenger, hangouts, textra), which did nothing
- changing the SMSC (berichtencentrale in dutch) as in this post >kye.id.au/android-sms-not-sending-fix/< which also did not help.
- creating a proper mms APN in hangouts, which fails because my provider doesn't support mms.
- put my sim in a dumbphone to test and it sent sms just fine which makes me think this is not carrier related and instead caused by lollipop.
Edit: it appears there's someone that managed to solve the issue using the mms APN in hangouts (forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/doesnt-receive-text-messages-t2940517). @miesjaa: perhaps this will help you as well? As I stated before, my carrier doesn't do mms, so there's no mms APN to put in hangouts. Anyone with ideas for a workaround?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Willem
I'm sorry to say that the APN fix mentioned in my thread didn't turn out to be as good as I thought. I was able to message 1 person and that was it. After a few hours I couldn't text him anymore nor anyone else, so I too reverted back to kitkat. Anyway, I contacted Vodafone about this and they told me they would check compatibility when the OTA comes out. It will probably soon be fixed!
As this seems to be a problem with the combination Nexus 5/Lollipop/Vodafone NL I thought I'd share some links:

It will be fixed
Same here.. although Vodafone is billing these texts as texts to international countries.. so watch out!
I guess we'll have to wait. Was hoping to find a patch on XDA, But there is not . Never use sms. But well.
Hmm they're taking their time to fix this problem... still no sign of an update.
So I've found a fix for this issue, not the most convenient one but it works. In order to send other people text messages you'll have to change their number prefix from +316 to 06. (Note: It only worked for me by deleting the contact and readding them by pasting the 06 number) The next step is to install textra from the play store. Now try to send a text message through textra (hangouts disabled). You'll know if it worked when you open your contacts app, select the contact you have texted and see that a text was sent to a 06 number instead of a +316.
If this doesn't work try to text directly to a 06 number in textra.

LS996 Texting problems on T-Mobile??

My LS996, rooted with ZV6, is having issues sending SMS text messages on T-mobile. Occasionally it just wont send a sms text. My signal is fine but out of no where it just fails sending. Network mode is set to Global. To fix this issue, I have to switch network mode to GSM/UMTS. Once I do that, the message will send fine. I can then switch back to Global mode and texting seems to be ok. I've tried different text clients such as Textra, stock messenger, and Hangouts and all have the same issue.
I have Bands 2 ,4, and 12 enabled. Everything else works fine. I can also send MMS messages with no issues. And the SMS issue doesn't happened all the time. I'll have days where all works fine, then for no reason, it refuses to send until network mode is changed.
Has anyone else ran into this problem? Any ideas how to fix this as it gets annoying having to switch over to GSM/UMTS mode just to send a text.
Any help work be appreciated.
Thanks!

At least I know I'm not the only one. I cant determine if its a T-Mobile network issue or what. Are you also using ZV6?
I wondered if I unrooted and received the updates to ZV9 if that would fix the problem.

I haven't had the problem for the last week so I haven't tried anything else. But no, I never did find a solution. If it becomes an issue again, I'll probably do the process of unrooting and updating to ZV9 to see if that helps. But I'm hoping I dont have to.
