Hey folks,
This is my first post and I looking for some assistance.
I seem to have a strange problem with my messsages but it only happens with one particular contact and its doing my head in.
I am using the Chomp App and I think its great but the problem I have is one of my friends (who is on the orange network) when he sends me a message and I try to reply to him the message fails. When I check the view message details it shows his telephone number as 44XXXXXXXXXX it has removed the + sign from in front of the number.
However if I go into the failed message and select forward the message sends no problem and + is in front of the number.
I have checked his contact details on my phone and they are fine and if I send him a normal text it sends, the problem only seems to arise if I try to reply to the message he sends me.
Anybody got any idea how to fix this ????
I appreciate any replies
thanks

Hello!
I decided to post here because I have a problem sending text messages with my HD.
Every third time, when I want to reply an SMS, it cannot be sent, it returns in the drafts, and I have this error message.
I don't understand why.
I tried dozen of Roms, radio, or SMS application (Manila, Windows, SMS Chat), and this happened.
Thanks for the help.
well, what rom you usin now my friend?
check yours sms center number in phone settings undee "voice mail and text messages"
if blank ask your operator to give it to you.
I just tried a new one to test if there is the issue, I'm on the last Lost in Asia.
Still the same problem.
[EDIT] SMS Center number checked, and it's okay. But I don't think this is the problem according I can send messages most of the time.
I solved the problem. In Settings / Connexions / Advanced Connexion, SMS Service is now set to GSM only.

I have the same problem, however I find that the sms's are actually sent because the other party has informed me.
I have this problem as well. I have WWE latest official ROM and SMS service set to GSM only. But as vanaveer said, other party received message even if it´s showing that "message cannot be sent"...
I think I solved the problem! Wich is indeed very frustating. The problem is in the SIM card, if the SIM card is older it does not really switch wel between the gsm.hsdpa network, which results in time out erros when sending text messages over the hsdpa network. If you put the settings of the network to GSM only, it will work flawless. I will receive a new SIM card by my provider and then the problem will be solved all together.
please report back wether this was helpfull or not
Well, I don't know if this is a 'Solution', but it's working for me.
I also have the same problem STILL! But I got it working, just
by instead of replying to the text message, I deny to make a
reply, and just start a new text message. This way I am able
to 'reply' on the text message.
Anyway, it's a good temporarily solution (for me surely), until
someone finds out what the actual problem is
I hope this will work for you!
grts,

i have a similar prob.
when one particular friend text's me it comes through with his name, as it should be. but if i try to reply from his text i get the "message cannot be sent" error.
if i then go into my contacts and text him it's all good.
the problem is that when i recieve a text from him the "+" symbol is omitted from the beginning of his number. but the symbol is there in my contacts list and as i stated the text comes up as from him.
i don't geddit??
I have the same problem. I get an error but people receive my SMS. I even asked for a new SIM... same problem. Tested many ROMs and Radios... no luck.
I've given up. Now I'm looking for a way to disable the "Your text message cannot be sent" message because it blocks my other incoming SMSs until I click OK.
My guess is it is operator related.
Hi, tried to search for this, I need some help please.
Using WM6.1 stock euro ROM.
1. When I reply to a text by tapping it it comes up as a thread conversation with that contact I received the text from.
2. I write my text and hit send.
3. Sometimes it works but a lot of the time the message is not sent.
Sometimes it says "Your message could not be sent" but sometimes nothing.
4. Check all messages > draft and there it is but the phone number of the recipient is changed from 07XX XXX XXX to 447XX XXX XXX and not with the plus sign
5. I double check the contact info and it is saved as 07XX, I tried saving it as 00447XX and +447XX but no luck.
So please has anyone come across this bug in the software or could it be operator related?
Sorry if the post is confusing I don't know how to explain this properly.
Cheers
Hi,
I had the same problem with my stock 6.1 rom (I've just changed to official 6.5, but not teste though).
Don't know why it doesn't work ... to send texts I'm just using the winmo text thing (access by the keyboard) and it works perfectly ...
Thanks for the reply, yes I have had to use that way around it as well. I really would like it to work tho, have no problem with this sending to International numbers from the UK. It only happens when sending to UK numbers while in the UK.
I tried to sent a text message and, after a slight delay, got the following:
Your text message cannot be sent.

Is there some sort of app or registry setting that I could change that'd ask if I wanted to resend the message? Having to retype in messages is rather annoying.
According to this post Windows Mobile 6.1 added this feature but I don't see it and I'm running 6.5. Maybe the HTC TouchFlo 3D interface removed it?

It doesn't retain a copy of the message in your drafts folder, or outbox...? Whenever I get that message I can just pull it up from there and hit send again
Whenever I get this message, after trying to resend it a few times, I realize I tried sending a text to an email address.
Make sure the number has an area code as part of the number.
Just another possible solution.
Is it for all text messages? If its a specific number sometimes the persons number is disconnected

this is the correct answer...if you have a good signal and you get that error msg, then that person has not paid their billy bill...
This problem comes up quite often if you've flashed a different radio onto your device. If you have flashed a custom radio, try out another or stock. If that's not the case, you might be in a poor coverage area. Both are common culprits, but may not apply for you.
SMS doest go to outbox folder
I have the same problem
When I have no service coverage I would like to type sms messages and as soon as I get it make phone send them all out. But unfortunately, when I don't have service HTC touch pro 2 keeps trying to send sms out and after a couple of attempts gives me message that it was not able to send it. I have to click on each message and resend it when I have service. Instead, I want my phone to put all sms into outbox sms folder and send them all when I actually have service.
I know other phones perform this function well. I went thru all settings but couldn't get it to put sms into outbox when no service available.
Does anyone have fix for that?
Also having a similar problem
Hi all,
Same, or similar thing with me. I'm on Vodafone in the UK, and I've got a friend who is on '3' in the UK. If I text him with a new fresh message, and hit send, it goes to him no problems. If he replies and I attempt to reply back - then I get "Your message could not be sent. Try again?" underlined in red. Tapping on this just generates the same problem again and again.
I've tried his number with/without spaces in it, ensured his contact name has no non-alpha characters in it, tried his number in +447xxx format as well as 07xxxx - all to no avail.
It does not happen with any other contact in my phonebook and I end up having to let the message fail, then forwarding my reply to him, so it leaves my device as a new message.
Now, as it's the UK, its nothing to do with him having not paid his bill (we don't get charged to receive SMS in the UK), and I've got great signal (I work for a Vodafone associated company and we've got a cell on-site, so it's full signal of HSUPA for me).
I am completely at a loss to understand why this happens - I have other friends on '3' that SMS's go to fine, so I'm guessing it's not a Vodafone to '3' issue either.
Any ideas anyone?!
Adam C.
PS: Stock ROM running WM6.5, unlocked GSM, nothing odd about the configuration/software either!
...bump.
Anyone?
Thx,
a.
change your network setting for automatic to manual. and enable call waiting now your problem is solved. i was suffering from the same problem but now solved
Sorry if this has been posted before, done a search and couldnt find anything.
Seems I have a issue that occurs sometimes for just some contacts on my Desire. If I start a new SMS rather than replying it works ok but when replying on a message thread it starts to go wrong I get " unable to send message after multiple attempts" on the notification and the SMS fails to send. Even retrying to send does the same thing. This is on a SIM free Desire I recieved Saturday. Other than this issue I am very happy with the phone, just this problem is starting to annoy me. Anyone able to help me please

Apologies if this has been in here before, couldn't find my issue with a quick search.
Right, basically the issue I'm having is that for some of my contacts, when I try to reply to a text it won't send. This isn't the error I've seen before of numbers not being formatted properly and a failure to deliver message, it's different: When I receive a text and compose a reply, nothing happens when I hit send! Te send box lights up, so it knows I've pressed it, but nothing happens (is if it were never pressed at all). The message still just sits there in the compose box waiting to be sent. The only work around is to save it to drafts and then reselect the recipient and send it from there.
Now, I have yet to try an alternative SMS app, or troubleshoot my installed apps. I'll do that if no one else has come across the problem before.
Is this a problem other people have experienced or is it just down to my individual set up?
Any help much appreciated, thanks!
