Guys, about 90% of the time when i send a text message, of any size, to anyone, i get a 'message can not be sent' notification and the phone vibrates, this happens about 2-7 times before the text message is sent, and for each time it tries to send the text again, this amount is send to the recipient, for example if it retries 7 times i will send the message 7 times - very annoying
when using the froyo rom from both paul and richardtrip i did not have this issue, although i am almost certain this was due to the stock messaging app, i even tried using handcent on the froyo which i used on the stock and on the froyo it worked perfectly too, but handcent will not work on the stock rom.
so it seems to me that it is an issue with either the stock (sense based) rom or the htc messaging app
im on tmobile UK on a branded phone, this happens on any radio, both rooted and unrooted
does anyone have any advice, or know of a way to replace the htc messaging app with the stock android messaging app?
if i could get this sorted id be very happy, so i appreciate any help
thanks in advance
I've had this issue happen a couple of times aswell, not sure how to replicate it, it seems totally random, but i haven't seen a 90% change of getting it!
try a new radio lol
This happens to me if I use any messaging system other than the default one (e.g. handcent or chomp) and the signal changes whilst sending the message (i.e. H to 3G or E to G etc. etc.)
I am still using the default rom with the latest update as I am waiting for 2.2 before rooting
turn off GRPS/EDGE/ 3G Data

Had exactly the same problem on stock/sense based verions of romms. NEver had an issue on stock android messaging app, only with the sense one. Think it must be a bug with that app. I'm T-mo in UK to but have an unbranded phone.
dont resend it, just wait until the message is sent, the phone resends automatically, because if you click the resend, it will send another message. what i do is when i get that error message i just wait.
I'm getting this problem on my o2-uk Desire; they are sending me a replacement handset

Thanks everyone for your replies
So it is confirmed that it is an issue with the HTC messaging app but not with the stock android messaging app, and no messaging clients can fix this as they use the default messaging app.
Is there anyway to change the HTC messaging app with the stock android? I prefer it anyway it works much better, the official froyo release will also contain the stock messaging app which I guess will have the same problem.
I will try flashing a different radio
Setting the phone to WCDMA only does not fix the issue
I am having this problem, and also another which I feel might be related, it tries to resend the message, and it eventually goes. I have also noticed that quite a number of times when I try to make a call, it doesnt dial, it just goes silent and returns to the call register screen. Maybe both related to a siganl problem . Somebody suggested switching off Edge or whatever, but thats not really a fix, and why should you have to do this to send a text. ?

I agree, and I also experience the same problem, sometimes during a phone call the most strange sounds happen and then the call cuts out, I'm guessing is interference. Problems with calls, text messages, and the connection repeatedly drops when using the mobile internet, exactly the same problems as the hd2, they will not get fixed by HTC, speaking from experience.. very basic requirements of a phone still not being met
I have the exact same issue with both texts and calls that seem to take ages to connect and then just dump me back to the dialer. I've put it down to O2 being so awful but of people have the same issues on other networks id love to know

I get it off and on, but I let it be and the messages eventually get sent out.

Same here. I did the resending thing for a while, but now I just ignore those error notifications. The text messages arrive anyway

same. I get it 10% of the time. On a unlocked Desire with a UK T-Mobile contract. just leave it to send a couple times, put your desire on a window sill and it should be okay.
but i think the message is not automatically sent if you lock the phone. can anyone confirm this? my unsent message was still not sent when i locked my phone.
As mentioned earlier in this thread, i used to get this issue all of the time when using handcent or chomp. However, since doing the following i've not had it happen once in 2 weeks (where it would happen 10+ times a day before)
1) uninstall any messaging software you have downloaded from the market
2) download sms unread count and sms popup from the market
3) put the sms unread count widget on the homescreen
4) configure sms popup to your liking
5) send messages to your heart's content
This uses the default 'messages' app rather than anything else and works perfectly

Thanks very much for your reply
I will try this right now
i also have the problem with the unsent messages and undialled calls, tmo uk contract phone.
I remember this happening to my rooted g1 with the slow and sort of crappy sense ui installed; so when my wife complained that her text messages on her Slide dont go in order i was shocked that the problem STILL exists.
I didnt see a thread about it here, sorry if i missed it. Anyone else have text message conversations where the texts are out of order? Phone is stock btw
I appear to have that same problem too, but I'm using stock Android right now. If we have the same problem I can elaborate on it more.
My problem seems to be that if I get a text message reply from someone and it's in the same minute as the last text message I sent the person, their text will go above mine, even though they sent their's after I sent my text.
So for example: I send a text to somebody at 3:20:15PM and that person sends a text to me at 3:20:55PM, their text will go above my 3:20 text, making it look like they sent the message first.
I had this problem as well, before my phone was rooted and even after. The only solution i have found is to install a different SMS app, which i use Handcent because its the closest to the stock app, and its free.
interesting, my wifes is stock and she said it happened with texts that were no more than a minute apart as you mentioned.
i just cannot believe this is still a problem. Sense UI is neat but this sure seems like a fundamental feature that shouldnt have such issues...
same thing has been happening to my texts, before and after root.
i can say the same thing happens to me also

Just recently starting yesterday, I've been having this problem.
Many of my texts I send show as sent on my phone, but are never actually received. Also, I receive many texts that never show up on my phone. (I only know I got them because of Google voice)
It's not LOS because random texts will get through, I've rebooted and have the same issue, and im running LoSD which detects nothing.
Im running EK02 and using Google voice, though I used both of them prior to these problems, so i don't think its related.
Anyone else having this problem? Its very frustrating
Thanks in advance

Before posting have you had Sprint reset you in the system or have you updated your profile
No I haven't.
Im not sure if this is what you mean but I've had the OTA update notification pop up alot. I always say install later though because I don't want stock
Edit: just updated my profile and PRL, ill see if that fixes the problem
Sent from my SGS II
Updating PRL and profile didn't work unfortunately
I also reflashed my ROM after stock-odin'ing. still have the problem.
It's even happening on Stock EG30.
Should I call Sprint? Maybe something wrong with the phone?
Does anyone have a problem receiving text messages? It seems like sometimes I don't receive messages from people I was in the middle of a conversation with, then I reboot my phone and I get them

Update your prl. Sprint may be having issues with towers near your location.

Location? You may have sprint working on your towers.
What version of Free GS3 are you running? Are you using the stock messaging app? I've been running this ROM and haven't had the problem you have described, perhaps re-flash the phone fresh and see if you're still having problems. If you are, then I would do as FL0OD suggested, sounds like a reasonable thing to do
no problems receiving normal texts. Some roms have MMS issues atm, which may also affect longer texts or group texts.

v0.1.1 & I've re-flashed the phone, and I always keep updating the PRL. It doesn't seem like I'm having problems now, but I still feel as though I'm getting messages late and such. Is there a way to go on my sprint account (from my pc) to check what messages have been sent to me, then check my phone and see if they reached me?
After flashing anything but stock, I get text messages like:
//ANDROID:MWI Notif turnOn mdn:.......
or
//Android:2069348583 has sent you a Sprint Voice message.
obviously the seem to have something to do with voicemal, as when ever I get a voicemail i get one so..... But some come at random times and don't seem to have any relation to voicemail at all... I am just curious what the deal is with these messages? what do they mean? and why do they come via the sms app>
I have a note 2 on sprint, running the newest carbon rom, but Ive experienced the same thing on every other AOSP rom I've flashed
sorrry if this has been posted somewhere else, I did a brief look but didnt find anything.
I've been getting the same message. However, I'm on an HTC One and am unrooted and running everything pretty much stock. It just started for me recently and I haven't had a chance to call sprint to see what their explanation was. Definitely a pain since i'm NOT receiving any notifications about voicemails other than this.
