Problem sending sms.. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there.
Not shure what happend, but I cant send sms with my SGS 2 runing stock ICS..
When it first started (two days ago) I was on LPQ baseband, so I tried LP7, LPS, KI4, KI1 but non made me able to send SMS. I can recive them, and I can browse the web with 3G or HSPDA.
To day I restored my phone to factory settings with GT-I9100_SEB_I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXXLPD_I9100XXLPQ.tar and rooted with
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5
Ideas to what I can check?
Network provider: Netcom
Other phones i home : iPhone - works with same network.

Insert some other simcard and try sending a message if the message is delivered then try using the simcard which was not working.

Have you checked your message centre? In the messaging app, under settings.

Also try changing messaging app. Try handcent or go SMS. Just send an SMS to your own number. If received properly, all fine, or else its a network problem.

Cant send sms

Sorry if this has been answered before but I can't find the answer.
I got my gsm razr today and I love it but I can't send a text message, I can receive texts and surf the Web. My phone us showing 4 bars of hspa. I can even tether, but no sending sms. My phone says error code 500.
Only thing I found on google said restart it and SMS will be.fixed but that didn't work.
the phone is rooted on 2.3.5 if that matters.
has anyone had this problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks

I have the same problem. The only way I can get mine to work is to put a SIM from another account in my phone. Enter *#*#4636#*#* and go to Phone Information. Refresh the SMSC. It will populate with the correct information. At this point, I can send texts from the phone. Put in the original SIM (do not reboot phone) and then you should be able to send SMS from your number.
The only problem is that the SMSC number does not stay through reboots. I have to do this process every time I reboot.
Does anyone know how to get this number to stick?
I don't have the same problem however I have noticed that GOSMS Pro from the market does allow a Customized SMSC setting in the Send Settings tab. Perhaps you can try that out and see if it fixes the issue?
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried both but neither work. I really like this phone but not having text us killing me. Someone please help

Can't send sms!

Hi
Strange bug here, I can receive sms, call, receive calls, surf on the internet, but I can't send sms!
My config is in my sig.
It happens on both roms so it's not Rom related, I tried to flash again the modem, even restored efs but no help.
Some ideas?
What network are you on??

Sfr in France. I don't have time yet to see if it's a provider issue. It worked till yesterday evening.
Usual is SMS settings message centre wrong details .

Right, I fixed it, but it's not possible on aosp sms app ? Go sms enables to customize it. On stock Rom no problem with stock sms app.

Cant use Vodafone carrier out of a sudden - no call or sms. but internet works fine.

Hi ya,
the guys from android-hilfe.de sent me here because they cant help me anymore. I brought the HOX+ 3 weeks ago on ebay local. the first week everything went fine and then out of a sudden I cant sent SMS or call anybody. when I try to call anybody (no different if I enter the number by hand or chose it from the contactlist) the connection isnt established. no error message, nothing. just "beep" and thats it. I use a vodafone simcard and if another vodafone user tries to call me, he gets the same "beep" like me, when I try to call. SMS dont reach me either. the sender gets an error just seconds after he tries to sent. I cant sent it too. BUT i get access to the internet. surfing, whatsapp and the facebook-app works fine. I had switched off wifi to make sure the connection is established through my vodafone carrier...and it is.
I called my provider an they say it must be the simcard - so they sent my a new one. but it doesnt helped. the same errors like before. then i tried to chance my simcard with a friend who uses o2 in his galaxy S3. my sim worked in his phone perfectly and his sim in my HOX+, too. Then i took the simcard of another friend whos also using vodafone and put it in my HOX+. the problems with calling and SMS were the same. my sim card was working fine in his HD2. so i tried more and more...it seems that only vodafone simcards got the problem with my phone. i also tried to reset the HOX+, deleted call forwarding, which doesnt fix the problem too. even gsm-codes like #004# or *135# wont work and a got the error message "Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code".
because i brought it on ebay i´m afraight it might have been stolen and locked by the provider - is there something like simlock or netlock? and if yes, how to fix it?
please excuse my bad english and thanks a lot for your help in advance

use that to check if it's stolen
Hi Lexx,
nice to see you here .
I dont think that is stolen ( more I hope so ). First check that out , maybe you or someone else is able to unlock it, if it is simlocked.
If it is stolen I would force as much preassure as I can to the seller...
Paypal or a complain to the police
thank you for you warm welcome.
i just checked the imei at imei.info and can't see any clue that the phone was stolen. do you need any information provided by the homepage or how to go on now? the phone still isn't working (except internet).
Goto the Vodafone website,
In their support area you can find a formulae to reapply network settings.
I had the problem you described with my dhd, reapplying carrier settings fixed SMS and calling.
Alternatively you can manually crosscheck all settings.

Alex

well I crosschecked the settings at least 10 times. they are definately correct. A konfiguration SMS cant be sent by 1&1 (a reseller of vodafone i use) because I cant receive sms at all. so my problem is still there. I recognized, that after I try to sent a SMS the connection always breaks down and I have to enter my pin-code again.
It seems there's something very strange with that phone. maybe any kind of lock?!
ps:
i can sent MMS but do not receive them.
Did you try a factory reset?

yes i tried software reset in the settings menu. But i didnt worked
Sounds like you need apn settings
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app
are you sure? The settings are correct and internet and mms wouldnt work if the settings were wrong. Right?
Depends and you said the Sudan? Hmm may be its a band issue. If your not on the same gsm bands your not going to receive voice. But if your on a compatible data band you will receive data. Now call your service provider and simply ask if the settings are correct. And there are data only Sims so you gotta watch out. Call the service provider and see what's what
. Good luck!

it worked some days until it suddenly stopped working. i already got a new simcard and checked the settings. they're right. but i found out that i'm not the only one having this problem:
forums.att.com/t5/Wireless-General-Device/HTC-one-X-plus-stops-receiving-calls/td-p/3370861
i just use the carries 1&1 (a german reseller of vodafone),but the problems are the same... and it seems there's no solution to fix it
maybe you got a clue?
Hmm ok how is the signal?
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app
depends on where I am. Right now in the middle of berlin it says hsdpa with maximum signal.
Can you tell me what the right settings would be when I enter *#*#4636*#*# ??? there are loats of information and maybe there it can be seen which is wrong.
any clue? Well I found out that there is something called "vodafone protect" which seems to lock and/or delete the mobile when it's stolen. maybe I bought a protected one Or should this be "deleted" when I reset by menu??

Unlocked S3 not receiving texts

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 reset my phone, changed roms, but nothing changed)
