Don't know what the issue is but I can't send or receive texts. I'm using stock text app, not hangouts. APN looks right, any ideas?
Are you rooted or running a custom ROM? You try toggling airplane or clearing the data/cache from the messaging app in settings?
Idiots at att didn't provision for texting.

For some odd reason I am not able to receive or send text messages. I tried using Handscent and the app that sends your messages to an email account but so far and no results. I am using a Madaco 3.1 custom rom with the most updated radio (63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26). Also I do not have a data or texting plan and my network is ATT in the USA.
Thx.
Im not sure about mms ... but for sms check in the settings if you have sms service center number in there....
Yes, there is a sms service number.
I have recently purchased a new i605, rooted, unlocked, and installed TWRP through Casual. And flashed CM10.2-20130827-Nightly-i605. I finally received my SIM cutter in the mail today, and pulled the full size Straight Talk SIM out of my Skyrocket that I have been using with no issues for almost 2 years, cut the SIM, put it in the Note 2, and entered the APN settings. It is receiving good signal, showing the "H" and "H+" the majority of the time. I can make voice calls, receive voice calls, send/receive MMS, and have good data sending and receiving. My only issue is, I can only receive SMS, and when I try to send (or reply to one already received) I get the "Message not sent" error. I saw a possible fix, of updating your SMSC, but I have no clue how to find what my SMSC is in order to input it, and haven't been able to find it either. I tried editing the way the telephone numbers are stored from +1 250-250-2500, to (250)250-2500, +12502502500, +1 (250)250-2500. I also saw where someone found a fix for their situation, where they had accidentally set Google Voice to send text messages. I went into the settings on my Voice app, and that setting was turned on, so I turned it off. But I am still having the same results when trying to send an SMS.
Does anyone have a clue as to how I can find what my SMSC is, so that I can try that fix for the issue?
Did I post this in the appropriate subsection of the Verizon Note 2 forum?
I'm in the exact same situation you are. Send/receive calls, receive texts but can't send texts. I received a new note 2 through insurance two days ago and did the same process of rooting the phone, except I flashed jedix17 on it. So I'm guessing the problem lies in the roms? I haven't had time to switch roms to see if that fixes it though. I'd like to see if there's an easier alternate solution as well.
Ok, I got to playing with the "fixes" I had already attempted, for a second time. Google Voice was set to send SMS, and I would change the setting in Voice to make the messaging app send SMS. Well, I noticed that after closing Voice, then going back to the settings in Voice, it would be set to Google Voice sending SMS again. So I Force Closed the Voice app, and uninstalled it, and the issue cleared up. I have no idea why the app would be automatically changing it's own settings back, after closing it though.
I see. Then it seems you and I don't have the same root problem. I don't have an alternative texting app, so I guess I'm off to reflash my rom.

Did you figure out your issue? If you flashed Gapps, you may have Voice+. Check in your app drawer just to make sure.
Yeah I have fixed it Thanks for asking (and yeah I did check and I did not have voice). Reflashing the rom did indeed work
Has anyone used a 3rd party SMS/MMS application (ie Handcent, GoSMS, Textra, 8sms, etc etc) to use send/receive MMS over WiFi Calling WITHOUT ANY DATA? I'm in an area where I can only use WFC, and all of my 3rd party SMS apps simply will not send or receive MMS over WiFi Calling without using the stock app.
Is there a solution?
And I repeat, NO DATA, no wifi = no service, so if you have a solution, make sure it's not quietly turning on data, sending the MMS, then going back to wifi, because that's not going to work as there is no cell service in this location.
Thanks.

Hey, I understand your needs. I work in a place where I have NO cell coverage at all and WiFi-Calling is the only way I can stay connected. I really don't like using 3rd party messaging apps so I'm not sure I have a solution for your needs in regards to 3rd party apps. But I know the stock messaging app on UVMC6 (stock 4.1.2 for T989) can send mms over wifi-calling. I'm guessing you are using a 3rd party app because the stock app doesn't do something you need/you don't like it. If you don't like it then there's nothing I can do. If you don't like the stock messaging app because you need...say group messaging? Well I might be able to help you. I actually just finished a write up on enabling group messaging on stock UVMC6. Here is the link. Let me know if you find this helpful. The stock messaging app has been modified by T-Mobile to allow MMS to be sent via wifi-calling...since wifi-calling is so baked into the ROM I really don't think 3rd party messaging apps will be able to send mms via wifi-calling.
Running cm7.2 official rom and wondering if rom auto sends and receives mms. If not is there a kernel update or other update I can flash to fix this. I would really prefer it auto send and receive. Thanks in advance.
what do you mean by auto send and receive? all ROMs receive MMS and SMS automatically when they are sent to that phone. i'm not quite sure what you are asking
I have a mot bravo running an unofficial cm7 build, when sending or receiving mms, mobile data is automatically turned on and off. This way my data is off so I don't have to worry about usage but still receive mms.
MMS and normal data use different APN settings.

Yes they do, I'm trying to say that on my moto bravo, when sending a MMS message, I attach the picture to text and then hit send. After hitting send the mobile data icon appears in the status bar and the message w/ pic is sent. When someone sends me a pic, my mobile data icon appears automatically and the pic is ready when I view the message. On the atrix 4g, this doesn't happen. If I want to send a pic I have to turn on mobile data before making the MMS so that when I hit send, it is sent out. Also, if someone sends me a pic, when opening the message there is a button labeled download that I must hit after making sure my mobile data is turned on for pic to be downloaded. I like the way the bravo ROM handles the MMS better.
I hope this is clear enough now.
I'm having a problem with MMS messages. Whenever I try to receive MMS messages I get this error:
Message not downloaded
Generic network failure
I flashed a new version of the ROM I'm running, and confirmed that the APN settings are correct. When I am going from zero text messages this is not a problem. When I restore my 17k text messages, I suddenly cannot receive MMS. Is there something I need to do in order to fix this? I've seen this happen with three different roms so I'm guessing this is an android issue and not something specific.
FYI, I flattened the phone back to stock. Then I installed a custom rom but no restored messages and I can't receive mms messages again.

I can send and receive text messages but not MMS messages. If I try to send a picture it fails.

I have the same issue, and it's intermittent. What I have found is stopping the mms service from settings, apps, all and restarting fixes it for a bit.

I think I might have just found a solution to the issue, at least for me. I had Ad Block installed, and when I uninstalled it, MMS was functional again.
