[Q] Unable to Send SMS with Dev Edition - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My SMS sending just stopped on verizon, was on with chat and they couldnt fix it. It just stops working and takes hours to send messages?
Anybody else?

My S4 stopped sending SMS. Solved it by replacing the SIM.

Mine stopped working tonight as well. Verizon non dev edition

Did any of you recently install Adblock Plus or Adguard? They're known to interfere with SMS/MMS messages.

I have gone thru two sims. I had at one point installed it but reset my phone since. I am going to do a complete wipe now including internal sd.

[Q] Unable to get texts from one person

So this isn't Dinc specific but as at least half of the problem occurs on a dinc I thought I might as well post it here.
I just recently had a problem with one of my associates where we are unable to send/receive text messages from one another. I have turned on received reports in the default messaging app and all my texts say received by the recipient.
Both of us can receive and send texts to other people and calling between us still works. I have wiped my phone, and gone with a stock Virtuous 3.2 rom and it still doesn't work. They are on a blackberry, also on Verizon if that helps.
I think this has something to do with your associates phone. My girlfriend's phone does the same thing, she won't receive messages or sometimes even calls. She has the new blackberry curve on VZW. We tried *228'ing it and that didn't help so we took it to the store, it was swapped and now it works like a charm.
It's not your phone, especially if you wiped it clean. Trust me.

[Q] [HELP!] Expert Issue. Not receiving SMS messages.

Had Evo since day 1. Rooted right away and have been ROM-happy, flashing my favorite as developers release them. Went from Fresh to Myn to MIUI and am now on my favorite, most stable and reliable rom: Deck v1.
Problem:
9 days after switching to Deck I stopped receiving sms messages completely. This is not an issue of the notifications for sms being turned off, nor is it a ringer issue. The text never comes through. I can send texts without issue, no problem.
Tried to fix this in these ways:
•*I made sure I wasn't blocking any texts; this can be done at sprint.com > my account.
• I called sprint so they could remove/re-add my sms messages which usually fixes this type of issue.
• I restored a nandroid backup taken at a point when texts were working.
• I tried restoring the stock image - then updating profile. Still wouldn't receive.
• Obviously rebooted 35 times throughout the course of all this (i have to say it, somebody will ask )
• Full wipe etc.
Nothing worked.
Called Sprint knowing they couldn't do a damn thing and would probably stop listening if they knew my phone was rooted. Long story short they sent me in to get a new Evo. Was worth a shot, I wasn't convinced it was a hardware issue (how could it be, sms is not dedicated to a particular piece of hardware in the phone) but I went in and did the swap.
New Evo, unrooted, texts worked! but wait, that's not all.
9 days after rooting again and installing Deck v1 - poof - no incoming texts. The exact same issue.
WTF is going on here?? There is nothing in logcat, absolutely nothing happens on my side when somebody sends me a text.
Google voice texts are a good emergency workaround but I want my native texts. Is this a deck issue?? anybody else getting this? i;ve ggogled for weeks now and nobody has come accross this particular issue. Also this issue wont fix itself. i went a almost a week the first time without noticing i wasn't getting texts.
Have you tried a ##786# reset? You will need your MSL code. Also, it will wipe all data from your phone, so take that into account. When you ##786#, let the list load and then hit "menu", and "reset".
When I first flashed to a GingerSense rom, I lost the ability to send/receive MMS and I was not able to connect to 3G at all. 4G and WiFi worked, but the 3G was nonexistent to my phone. After calling Sprint several times, one tech told me to reset my phone this way. I told him I would have to call back because if my phone was going to get wiped, I had to back everything up first and it would take a while. After I backed up all my app/data with Titanium and made a NAND back-up, I did it and it got my phone working right.
Hopefully you get the same result. Good luck.

Flashed back to a Sense/stock rom to do just that. Didn't help.
Whenever somebody has issues like mine it usually involves sending AND receiving. For me it's strictly receiving.
People also center these issues around MMS. Sending MMS is not an issue for me. I can send everything. I can't receive a damn thing.
That certainly is an oddity. I've been using decks 1.2 since C, and am currently on Z. I've never had any issues with not receiving sms messages (as far as I know...I suppose it would take someone to tell me that they sent me a message and I never replied, which I haven't got yet) I have never really seen this issue, except on my buddies stock hero a couple weeks. His problem was that he had never deleted any of his texts, so literally had like 10k messages or more in there. Once I was finally able to get all his damn messages cleared out (took forever...he wouldn't let me factory reset it) he was able to start receiving texts again. I'm sure that's not your problem, because you've been flashing and wiping, surely your texts have been cleared out...unless you restore them all. That's the only time I've seen that. I would've suggested maybe it was an issue on sprints end, which would not be unheard of, but if that was the case it wouldn't have worked on your new unrooted evo when you got it.
I saw in deck's thread that you already deleted the telephony.db directory, and that had no affect for you. I really wish I had some suggestions for you, but that is just odd. My first guess would've been a problem with sprint.
EDIT: Also, are you using the GV and Sprint integration? I don't use it, but I saw that if some settings weren't correct with that (from the google voice website) that all messages will go thru google voice, and not thru the native messaging app. Could that possibly have anything to do with it, maybe?
If you have Sprint/Google Voice integration, that is the problem. There are some funky things going on with Google Voice lately. Can't send messages from Gmail to a Google Voice number and have it register as a cell sms. The message is automatically sent to and only goes to the Google Voice Inbox.
I've had some sms trouble with all ROMs, not simply Deck's. It sounds identical to your issue. Google is the only constant between all ROMs. My problem was resolved by going into Google Voice settings, unchecking "Receive text messages on this phone," saving changes, then rechecking it and saving those changes.
I have lost the ability to receive sms numerous times. I am convinced it is a Google/Sprint integration issue.
I cant get text messages either. I can send all day and im testing, flashing roms, recoveries, I just unrooted as a final solution (so i thought) and nothing. Same crap. If anyone has a fix or if the fix is on another thread let me know please, thanks. Other wise im just gonna root back and say F! text messages
If you're on MIUI and didn't wipe, when you flashed it can cause these issues. Try to reflash, after doing a full wipe.

Samsung message app issue?

I hate the Verizon message app, so I always used the samsung one, well I tried factory reset, cache,etc. The damn thing won't let me send group messages or send pics, any one else have this issue? It's driving me nuts, I use the group's reply for work and stuff. But it works in Verizon message app...
I can't answer your question as I did not like Samsung or Verizon's solution. I have used Textra for a long time and never have any problems.
I had this very same issue with my Verizon Note 8 and never figured out what caused it. If I would switch my sim from my Note 8 to my iPhone and back MMS would work briefly and then fail after a while. Verizon nor Samsung could help me, so I downloaded Textra and never looked back. Funny thing is when I first was dealing with this I couldn't find a single thread with any other owner reporting the issue now 4 months later I saw your post lol.
I just noticed that I'm having this exact issue as well. Re-flashed the entire stock Verizon firmware and still can't send MMS. I can receive but not send.
Is almost like it was sabotaged, so you had to use Verizon message app, I'll try textra, thanks for the help
Use Signal, I beg of you:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.thoughtcrime.securesms :highfive:
I second signal. Absolutely no issues so far. Very reliable
Same issue that stock app just stopped sending mms. But have to use due to watch compatibility.. Help?
Is anyone else having a problem with the badge showing up when you got a message? Im not getting any number on the icon to indicate there are unread messages....
I've been having a problem with mms since updating to oreo. Never had a problem before that. But I'm also having issues with data during calls.

Razer Phone on Lineage 18.1-20211030-NIGHTLY-cheryl is unable to send any texts

I have Lineage version 18.1-20211030-NIGHTLY-cheryl installed on my Razer Phone.
I'm unable to send any text messages to single contacts, but I can send text messages to multiple contacts without any problems. I can also use data and make calls normally. The texting problem is not due to reception; I've tried many locations miles apart and couldn't send texts from any of them. Calling, however worked well at all of the locations.
A different Razer Phone running on stock rom is able to send text messages using my SIM card, but my phone is not able to send texts with the same SIM card. However, because my SIM card is able to send text messages when placed inside the stock Razer, neither my SIM card nor the phone company's network is likely to be the problem.
I've ruled out Wi-Fi calling as the problem. On stock Razer, Wi-Fi calling has, in the past, interfered with my text messages. However, I have Wi-Fi calling disabled on my Lineage Razer and I still can't send any texts.
Has anyone had problems with texting on their Lineage Razer Phone? I've already spent days researching this problem and failed to find anything that works. As much as I love having an updated phone, not being able to text is a serious problem. Does anyone have any ideas that could spare me from having to return to stock?

Question Automatic SMS not working

Hi all,
I have a Realme GT ME which I bought a couple of months ago. Everything is working fine, got the new OS update as well but one thing that is not working is SMS. Also only when SMS is generated from another app.
Normal SMS is working fine. I can send and recieve them. Only when another app tries to send and SMS, say for some verification, it instantly fail. However if I try to send the same SMS again by tapping it to retry, it work fine. I have no clue why this is happening. I have tried and ruled out most of the probable causes,
1. Sim is working fine since normal SMS works
2. It isn't the messageing app since I have tried installing a different one.
3. The SMS issue is caused in all app hence it is not app specific.
Hence it has to be something to do with the OS or the SMS service. I'd really appeciate if someone would be able to help me.
Thanks a lot.
