[q] sms help

Ever since I rooted my droid incredible I have had a continuous problem with receiving and sending txt messages. Sometimes it will work and sometimes it won't. I am wondering if it is a ROM problem or a phone problem. I was wondering if anyone could help. Thanks!

What ROM are you using, are you just rooted Stock?

How long has it been doing this?
And yeah, what he said ^

Could be a Rom or you're using or could be your phone itself. I recall several people, including myself, that had problems with mms on CM6 Froyo on the Droid Eris. Some people could fix it using an apn manager, but I could not. I had to move back to the Stock Sense with android 2.1 or a variant like XTR. If mms worked on Stock 2.2 for you, you could try using Virtuous or Sky Raider.

I agree with everybody's suggestions above. You might also make sure your phone is programmed correctly and that the ROM didn't change something critical in that regard. Dial *228 and select option 1.
Good luck!

Some ROMs also have bugs with MMS over wifi... if this is the case try turning wifi off before you send MMS

Any other 4.2.1 users running Handcent??

If so can you send and or receive MMS? I can send/receive with stock app fine but not handcent.

Go SMS Pro has the same issue. Can receive them fine but can't send. Have to use the stock messenger

I can send and receive on the latest aokp with is 4.2.1 based.

i am on jbsourcery 4.0 which is now android 4.2.1 and my handscent works fine. i restored it from titanium, not a fresh download. not sure if that matters.
try going into the settings and setting it to default messenger.

Chomp sms also had this issue, I saw it listed on their FAQ. Supposedly they're working on a fix.

You are able to send and receive MMS Picture messages fine? Can you share any special settings perhaps?

I can't comment on handcent, but in gosms I had to enter the apn settings again within the app itself. I can send and receive fine. Not sure if handcent has a setting like that too

Just got off gtalk with handcent & servers have been updated & mms is working fine on att lte apns now! Hell yea! They keep a 5 day cache of apn settings so you may need to set your date & time ahead a week then send a mms then just change it back!

Are you flashing gapps?

I should have elaborated. My SMS messages all fail to send.

Are you referring to all text messages or just MMS (picture messaging)?

All text messages.

It works for a few minutes freshly after flashing then it just won't send messages anymore.

BUMP

Figured it out on my own with logcat. Voice+ was causing the issue. As soon as I disabled it, everything worked. Hope this helps anyone else in my predicament.

SMS support for N7 LTE 4.4

Hi guys, need some help because after updating to 4.4 SMS function using go pro or 8 SMS doesn't seem to function well? Did I miss anything?

Apparently the ability to set a default SMS client is completely disabled in the 4.4 factory image for the LTE Nexus 7 (2013). This appears to have been done at the framework level (much like tethering being disabled on ATT). Hopefully someone will be able to write a similar patch soon.
You should still be able to receive SMS via the BasicMessageReciever in the mean time.

tnx for the response. what a waste in upgradind to 4.4

It's awesome how there is now no way to delete SMS messages because of 4.4 so I have to root to kill them all.

I've tried every possible apk. Modified the framework-res.apk (fc's on boot). I'll look into it from source code. It's in the telephony.apk and framework.

Deleting the text storage should be easy fixing the default and menu is another problem. It's funny because I have the Wi-Fi only version and I was using sliding messaging to text with Google voice but it does SMS like it would on a phone so I still had this problem even though they weren't actually normal texts.

MMS isues

Does anyone have a fix for mms receiving issues on gee. I'm running DU 4.4.4 running the Franco kernel. I can't receive any mms group texts from an iPhone. It is crazy frustrating. I've run hello, voice, Go sms, and hangouts and I get no joy. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks y'all.

I'm not sure if it's an app issue but if it is, try 8sms. Might have to look at settings for that app. I think I changed the receive to always instead of just WiFi or data. But either way my brother has an iPhone and just sent a group text to my cousin and I. We both got the MMS.

That seems to have fixed it thanks.

Glad it works for you now. Hangouts doesn't work well for MMS period at the moment so I would stay away from that for texts/MMS.
