As said in the title, i've been experiencing some problems with SMS.
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 gt-p7500, and i've always been able to send sms with it. However, last week it started giving me an error whenever i tried to send a message. It just shows "Error. Message not sent"
Moreover, i can't even receive messages anymore, even if my phone says that the message has been delivered.
P.S.
The tablet is rooted and i'm using the stock ics rom, however it started doing this before i rooted it.
are you sure that the problem is with the tablet?

The sim card actually works with other devices.
the data connection is also working, so the problem is only with messages.
if the problem started befor rooting and you are on stock than

If the problem started before rooting and you are on stock than it is unlikely that there is somthing wrong with the rom.
did you check your apn settings?

yes, it says "failed to connect, try back later"
This happens only with the tablet, if I insert the sim in the phone everything works flawlessly.
EDIT:
Checked back again, the apn settings seem to be fine.

I cannot send text messages from my phone, it comes up as failed as soon as i tap send, it happened on froyd, so i went to cronos, it happened on cronos, so i went to 2.1 sensehero, still didnt work, so I bit the bullet and unrooted using the 2.73.61.66 ruu, didnt work, got the ota update to 2.1, still doesn't work, anybody else having this problem?, is there a fix?, as i can recive texts, make and recive calls, us mobile data fine, its just outgoing texts, its kinda annoying notbeing able to send texts
Have you contacted orange? (the obvious people to contact for this issue...)
I also get this problem on T-Mobile, although I only started to happen since updating to 2.1 ROMS. I've tried different 2.1 ROMs and different radios but the problem is still there. Was never an issue on 1.5.
My texts do eventually send though, they just fail the 1st time I try and then the phone automatically tries again. 2nd attempt usually works as I have delivery reports turned on to check.
A friend also has this problem with his Hero, although he is running official 2.1 update straight from T-Mobile.
Maybe it's just something HTC forgot to fix / didn't notice was a problem in their 2.1 Hero update... like the bug where you can't hide sim contacts in the phonebook (but you can in contacts).
Open up your Messages application. Press Menu -> Settings.
Click on "Service Center" - it should then say +447973100973. If it doesn't, type it in and press okay.
Your messages should then send !
i agree with Alex here as that is the most obvious one, if that doesn't work then contact orange to make sure there are no other issues...
thanks guys, i did as alex suggested, and all was perfecly fine,
thanks so much!

Hi,
I recently helped a colleague purchase a Galaxy SIII phone here in China, Guangzhou and made sure I checked the phone over completely before I purchased it.
I've done a search on the forums and check out anything that may be similar, but to no avail.
The problem is:
The phone will not receive any text messages, or at least they don't go through to the messaging app.
Text messages were being received normally for around a week
I disabled a bunch of pre-installed Chinese crap that is unfortunately not un-installable as it's baked into the ROM
It happened once, so I factory reset it, and then tested it. The text messages worked fine
I then disabled the Chinese stuff once again and installed Skype. Just to be sure, I sent more test text messages, and they were all received fine.
Around one week later, here we are, she says that text messages are not being received again.
All other functions of the phone are working. Internet / Edge network, sending texts, Play store, everything. Just not the receiving of texts!
I'm fairly confused as to this behaviour, particularly as it seems the text messages are working for a time limited period.
I had some inklings of what it could be:
- The SIII takes a micro-sim, the shop "manually" chopped the SIM using a cutter. Could this have damaged the SIM and caused this behaviour?
- The phone itself is faulty
- Something is up with the China Mobile settings / network and she needs to call them.
What would be your diagnosis, ideas, solutions XDA'ers?
Further information of any kind is, of course, available on request.
**** My ideas for a fix ****
Root the bastard and get a standard UK ROM on the phone to see if it works. However, I have some concerns. Years ago, when I bought my first HTC desire, when I rooted and put a UK ROM on it, I discovered that my phone was an imported Thai version of the phone and almost bricked it into a reboot loop as the phone didn't like a different regions ROM being loaded on.
I had to go through a convoluted process of making a specially edited SD-card to fool the phone into accepting different ROMS. Is this the case with the Galaxy SIII or have times moved on to more sophisticated means?
Thanks.

Have you try other messaging apps like Hancent SMS or Go SMS to confirm that msg service is not working?
Or maybe the CSC is causing the problem?

Open the stock messaging app. In its menu go to settings. Check that there is a number recorded under message centre. If not use Google to find the number for the carrier you are with and enter it.
I'm on an unrooted phone with a stock Rom and twice messaging has stopped working. The cause was that this number had spontaneously disappeared.

Ok, I've tried:
- alternative messaging apps, and they're not picking it up either.
- the message centre number.
When you say CSC? You mean the carrier code? It was bought in China and fitted with a Chinese ROM, but I'll look at the ROM settings and see what it is.
Thanks.
U dial *#1234# then you can see your csc
CSC – (Consumer Software Customization) Refers to the specific country or carriers for that said firmware is being build.
This where it contains the default settings of each specific geographical region, carrier network providers and network data connections.

I am having this problem. It was all working fine then suddenly it stopped. I don't know what could be the cause but I fooled around with the settings, deleted old text messages and then suddenly I received dozens of text messages.
It's like my phone isn't trying to receive any text messages. It can send text messages out but it won't receive any.
I am using Omega 31.1.
Can someone help me out please?

I had the same issue,
I changed the Network options from gsm only to "Auto" mode, and apparently it worked for me.
Hi, I'm having a strange problem here. The phone does not receive any text messages. It can still send them and still receives mms though. This is actually the second time it's happened and none of the solutions I've found so far have worked.
What I ended up doing the first time it happened was I took out the sim and put it into my old phone (an AT&T One X) and that would receive all those texts I wasn't getting before. Then I factory reset the S3 and put the sim back into it. Doing that solved the issue for a little while, but now it's happening again.
Anybody know what's happening here or what I'm doing wrong? I'm on AT&T and currently running Android Revolution HD 22.4 using the latest official Samsung rom. The phone is a European version that I bought from Newegg unlocked.
Thanks!

My wife's having the same problem with her international GS3 on AT&T - just stopped receiving text messages a couple of days ago, but she can still send them and she can receive MMS. She swapped sim cards and nothing changed, and a factory reset didn't fix the problem. Call center number is correctly indicated in the messaging app. I spent an hour on the phone with AT&T and they were unable to help (and unwilling to help after I said the word "unlocked"). However, I put the sim in an old phone and she immediately received the missing text messages.
Running stock EMB5, not rooted.
I think it's some configuration problem.
Like number of SMS center or such, ask your operator to get exact configuration.
I have been experienced similar problem, not unable to receive but unable to sent correctly, my text was incorrectly encoded.
just check out the setting.

Well as I said, the call center number was correct.
In any case, I seem to have fixed the issue (for the moment, at least) by using the kies "firmware upgrade and initialization" procedure to wipe and reset the phone.
I am on beans build 20 and just today I cant send any sms or mms messages. I tried another app too (gosms) I can get on the Internet just fine (im posting this via lte so I know I have data) anytime I go to send a message it says that the service is un available and the message will sent when the service becomes available. I need to try and fix this. Heres what ive tried so far.
Re flashing the modem
Tried a different rom (carbon everything kept force closing so I couldn't try a message)
And finally restoring a backup of beans
Nothing of those worked.
Heres what my about phone says.

hey bro, word of advice, I'd edit iut your number in that screen shot
Thanks bro. I missed that.
Well it just started working again. Maybe it was on Verizons end? But family members in the same room as me were able to send texts just fine during the time I couldn't.
Although I don't often need SMS functionality from my tablet, I have noticed that for the last few months I can no longer send text messages.
It used to work - I have GoSMS installed and can see messages I sent in January. After talking to O2 UK for over an hour, I took a trip to my local store, where they tested my SIM which IS working fine - when it's not in my N9!
I tried a factory reset.
My tablet is locked and not rooted. I updated to 5.1.1 from the image on Google's site.
Sim does work in other devices.
Is no one else having problems sending SMS on their LTE N9 then?
I thought I'd update as so many views of thread.
My O2 sim works in any device EXCEPT my Nexus 9. Data Works, but no SMS.
Any other Network sims work in my Nexus 9, so it's not a problem with tablet from what I can see. I think something must have happened when I rooted the device when on Android 5.0.2. Device was then unrooted and bootloader re-locked (only do this on stock roms!).
Got a new sim on the way. Will update soon.
reverted to 5.0.1
So I decided to flash 5.0.2 - nothing changed, flashed 5.0.1 and bingo! It works.
I then let tab update to 5.0.2 - still working
Then let it update to 5.1.1 - FAIL - data works, but no sms
Update:
After RMAing for screen problems, the replacement I got connects to 4g fine, but still no SMS or MMS.
I sideloaded Google messenger, when I send SMS it says 'Can't send message using CARD 1: Error -1
MMS says 'Service not activated on network'
O2 have sent new sims, reprovisioned the tablet, but still nothing Is no one else having this problem?
Tablet Info
Thought I'd drop a screen-shot of my Tablet Info in to see if anyone sees anything unusual that might be causing my problems....

Nope - no solution. You have this problem as well?
I'm on Android N preview 2 now and was hoping it would be fixed, but it's not. Still the only way I can send/receive SMS is to downgrade to Android 5.0.2
