Sending and receiving text - Motorola Droid RAZR

My phone doesn't seem to send all my text and i receive multiple messages from the same person for most og my messages anyone else having this issue

Have exactly the same issue. If install custom SMS clients as Handset or GoSMS pro - it will do things even worse. too many sms messages. Updating radio helped a little, but sometimes I find sms messages are not received by my phone in time... Also person who sends text messages to me says there are no devliery reports for any sms she sends to me.
If someone know how to solve multiple and missing SMS messages - please reply!

Experienced this issue on some XT910's. Apply the ota update 2.3.6 and it will be fine.

I applied OTA update and still got this annoying issue. SMS app (default) seems to be more accurate now in terms of receiving texts, but still got multiple incoming text messages 3rd party Sms app will make it only worse.
Have someone solved this?

Could be a faulty Sim card.

I had this issue as well. I ended up grabbing a Galaxy Nexus and use the same sim card without issue.
I like the razr a lot, this is not vs post. Just thought I could help rule out the sim card.

I had the same issue but I eventually ended up realizing it was only certain people who it was happening too.. Never had a issue sending but I eventually figured out it was people I knew on a certain carrier that were the ones I was getting double msg's sometimes triple..
I'm with Rogers and my friends on Telus send/receive was fine but those on Bell I would be able to send fine but whenever they would send me a msg i'd get it twice sometimes 3 times. Eventually it just stopped and all works fine.

[Q] SMS receiving problem

Hello.
My father has a SGS2 and has a problem with receiving messages.
It's so complicated, I don't know how to explain it )
When someone texts him, he receives that SMS multiple times. And if he receives another message, the telephone keeps receiving the first message.
Last night I took a test: I sent him 4 messages, little time one after another. He received 8 messages (all duplicates of the first), but in a very strange way: at a 10 minutes interval (0:07, 0:17, 0:27...).
Does anyone has any idea?
Have you tried his sim in another phone to rule out the phone as the problem?

Yes, I tried his sim in another phone and also my sim in his phone.
But... it looks like the problem was solved!
My father uninstalled this morning all the apps and games he didn't use, and magically he receives the messages ok
I think it was some bug, but I can't relate it to any app, unfortunately.
Hmmm without reinstalling them one by one it would be hard to fine the problem app.

[Q] Phone not receiving txts.

Been using my Razr maxx fine for 5 days now, and as of this morning, i am not receiving texts. I can send them, but i am not getting any. I have reset, hard reset, pulled the SIM card, rebooted, everything. the only thing that changed was installation of safestrap, and i know for a fact thats not the issue, because i froze it, rebooted, and tested again, still no texts. Im sure its "service issue" but there needs to be a way to fix it . Anyone know how?
It could be an issue with verizon. Give it a couple of hours or call them and ask. If they say they are unaware of any issue give it a couple of hours anyway. If evwrything was working and u didnt do anything it's not a problem with the phone ...... usually

Did you max your txt capacity in settings. Or delete the ones you have now. Try those two and see if you get txt now

I figured it out. After i rooted, i froze the stock text messages app (i use Chomp SMS). For whatever reason, i was still able to SEND messages, but incoming messages never got to the phone. once i unfroze the stock text app, they came back. So this one was entirely my fault.

[Q] Can't send MMS messages

Randomly this evening, my phone has decided that it no longer wants to send any MMS messages. I can send SMS messages just fine, but MMS messages do not go through. They sit for a while, and then it just says that the text message cannot be sent.
Anyone have any suggestions that don't involve factory resetting?

You have 2 options.
1)do master reset and retest it.
2) call your cell carrier.
I had a similar problem a few nights ago. All I had to do was reboot it.
That's all I need to do for a few random glitches.

Do you have data disabled? I noticed when data is disabled, mms do not go through..
Sent from my XT910 using Tapatalk
No, data was enabled. I was able to browse the internet and such, so I don't think it was a connectivity problem. But it's fixed now, so I guess it really doesn't matter.

Okay. When I said it was fixed that was actually a lie. It's started doing it again. I have no idea what caused it, but it will sometimes work and sometimes not. Any ideas anyone?

Will it be the APN settings problems?
In some country you have to set your mms APN manual
Mine does the same thing. A restart is only a temporary fix because it has done it again a day later or so. I have not found anything to fix it yet.
I am on 4g. Not on wifi. unlimited messages.

Try this on dialpad
*#*#4636#*#*
Wacth phone services
Then tap second right update buttom
It must be filled with Service Center Number, for sms/mms data. If you get 'update error', you may have a bug in system that prevents it from correctly setup of older sim cards (mostly cutted ones), if so, buy a new micro sim. It's cheap and solves a lot of small problems
Thanks, and if helps any way, share the learnin'

I tried this but every time I entered the code nothing popped up. But I think I've figured it out. It appears to only happen when I'm connected to a WiFi network. So I guess I just have to disconnect from WiFi if I want to send an MMS message.

Well, it'd boring this way. Try Apn Droid Pro on G play, it will keep mms on

I had the same issue, tried a number of things to fix it. Called Verizon and apparently it's a known issue that they expect to be fixed with the upcoming GB update. Other than that the only way I was able to workaround was installing Go SMS Pro, which sent MMS messages fine.
I figured out what the problem is! It stems back to the problem the Razr has with switching between 3G and 4G. In my house, I have to use WiFi because I live on the edge of a 4G service area. I get maybe one bar of 4G service, which without WiFi, pretty much refuses to do anything having to do with data. Apparently, even though WiFi is enabled, the MMS messages are NOT being transmitted over WiFi. So instead, it attempts to send them over 4G cellular data and fails because of the poor reception in my house. Switching the phone from CDMA/LTE to CDMA only before sending the messages (my signal reception jumps to 4 bars) allows it to send without failing.

[Q] SMS doesn't always send ?

Ive noticed that when sending certain sms messages, the messages will keep spooling and not send unless I delete and resend it. Seems to happen at random times, even with no signal it should still send when it gets a signal right ? Using the Handcent SMS
Same thing happens to me.
I had the exact same issue. I stopped using Handcent and the issue went away. I've never had this issue on any of my last 5 android devices. Really frustrating since I have used handcent as long as I can remember.
+1 - Yep, me too! Even using GVoice + Sprint integration, too!
Also, if I restart my phone all the texts will magically send. Anyone else find this to be the case?
I also noticed that I can't get voice to text to work. I speak, select the line that reflects what I said....and then nothing. It doesn't paste it in. Any one else?

i have this same issue with handcent as well
I used to always have issues with handcent. When I had the Hero none of the MMS would send. So since then I have been using Go SMS Pro.
I am using Go Sms and I have the same issue. It seems if I am receiving a text at the same time, mine won't send and I have to delete it and start over. Also, when I send an MMS, it will create drafts of the same thing that I have to remove. My voice to text on swiftkey won't work either. I will have to try it out on stock.

I was having the same problem and what I thought was happening was the phone was closing Handcent (multitasking issue) before the text sent. I don't currently have my EVO LTE to prove that this is the case.

It's all network improvements boys and girls. If you been experiencing dropped calls, network busy tones, missed, super late, or texts being rejected; its due to nv work.

How can you be so sure? I started experiencing this the day I got this phone.
I have the same issues. Unfortunately, the only time I actually get text on time and/or send text reliably is when I use Google voice. I hate Google voices SMS setup, its ugly, and you can't send attachments. Its a shame we have this very cool phone, that can't do the basic cell phone operations. However, I do agree that this issue could very well be a Sprint signal issue and not the fault of HTC.
I'd also like to add, this is my second EVOLTE and both had this issue. Also both phones were and is having problems receiving calls. My missed calls don't even register, so once again, I have to rely on Google voice to let me know I missed a call via email, even after my phone never rang.
WUESTSIDER!

I can 100% guarantee you that this is not the reason for this btw....it may be in some places the reason but it is NOT the main reason this is happening...
I know for a FACT there has been 0 work on the towers in my area and seen this same thing happen...
Ok, so for me this is only an issue with third party messaging apps.
I have been using the stock app now and haven't had the issue once.
Go back to Handcent sms, boom! issues again.

I have the same issue. I had the same issue briefly a few weeks ago; however, now it's happening only on Sprint's network. If I check "Roam Only" on Meanrom I'm able to place calls, and send/receive text messages just fine. It started happening again when I used the LazyPanda s-off. I asked Sprint to do an HLR reset, and I still have the same problem. I've updated the profile 7 times now.

T-Mobile MAJOR issue. Anyone else?

Hi,
I have T-Mobile. Using an HTC One.
I belong to several MMS groups, where both iPhones and Android phones are involved. For about 6 months, group MMS was perfectly fine, never had an issue.
For the past month, whenever I send a message to the group, I have a 5% success rate of the message actually being displayed properly for everyone. Everyone keeps telling me my messages are blank. Or it will send multiple blanks. I keep getting sh*t from all of my friends telling me T-Mobile sucks and whatnot. "Get an iPhone, get Verizon." Very frustrating hearing this every damn day. It's really starting to piss me off.
Regular SMS is fine. And any messages sent to the group I can see perfectly fine as well. But sending messages isn't working right! Group MMS is very flakey using the stock app! I don't understand what's going on. T-Mobile doesn't seem very helpful.
Is this happening to anyone else? How do we resolve this? Does anyone work for T-Mobile here? This is getting out of hand.
This is NOT the phone. I have wiped it so many times, tried so many different ROMs. It was perfectly fine and started working improperly out of nowhere. No changes, nothing.
I am not the only one!

Apparently it's affecting all T-Mobile users and not just our device. See here for more info:
http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/57534?start=75&tstart=0
Same problem. This ALL started when I installed the new Hangouts and enabled SMS. Maybe it messed with something?
Anyway, here's something interesting i've found out.
I get a group MMS from multiple devices. When I send the group MMS, android phones "receive it" (on Tmobile/Att carriers), iPhones "reject it" (Tmobile/Att carriers), and WindowsPhones receive "blank" message. Weird.
I had a problem with picture messages. Checking the "delivery reports" under the mms settings makes this problem disappear for me. Try that!

WiFi calling shuts off the data radio which MMS needs to send messages. I've sent MMS while on WiFI and I will see my LTE signal turn on to send the message. Maybe WIFi calling completely kills the radio which won't allow a message to send.
