Hi
myself and a colleague have both got new X1's and I have no problem sending texts to multiple recipients, however when he tries to send to more than one person, only the first contact number receives the message.
i have looked at the setting and they both seem to be the same. A soft reset has not resolved this, can anyone help in this matter
Many thanks

Hi All,
I'm running 1.66.00WWE & when i send SMS messages to people sometimes only half of it comes through for them. The SMS's are not over the character limit, for example a 20 char SMS sometimes only comes out with the first 10.
Anyone else had this problem or know of a solution?
I've had this problem before. For the recipient, it's similar to that of recieving a multi-page sms which of course takes time to update on their phone.
I just wrote it off as a service provider problem, but if others have the same problem, maybe it is handset related.
Truncated SMS Messages
I too am having problems with truncated messages (just no text actually) on some occasions. Not sure if it is reception related or what. Can anyone help. I'm running latest versions of ROM on o2 XDA II, using an Orange SIM
In my case it was all or nothing. I ended up putting +44 in front of all my UK mobile numbers and that seemed to solve it -not sure if it is the same problem as you are having though.
I also had the similar prob before, and got it solved with the help of gazzaman2k. Try this out, this might do it.
1.) Go to Inbox
2.) At the bottom, Click Accounts, then Accounts again.
3.) Tap *SMS
4.) Untick \"Send SMS messages using unicode when necessary\"
5.) Press \'OK\' then the \'X\'
Let me know if this fixes it.
was supposed to POST reply to thig, but Gut_S beat me to it, hehehe.
YUP, unticking that SEND SMS using UNICODE when necesarry will solve this problem, and TELL your friends about it. SERVICE providers GAIN a LOT from this bug coz you might think your sending only 1 SMS but actually it is counted as 2 or even 3 mesages by the network.
cheers.
So, this morning, i tried to send out a text message to more than one person asking for email addresses. After waiting over and hour and only getting one response, i sent an individual message to someone that didn't respond. Well, they said they never got anything. So i did some playing around with sending test texts, and it turns out that anyone listed after the first person is not receiving any messages. This worked before and for some odd reason just stopped working?
Any direction someone can point me in? i'm not using a custom messaging program.
Worse come to worse and i need to set the phone back to factory defaults, how do i do that?
nevermind, got tired of not being able to send out multiple texts so i set it to factory defaults.
found an xml contacts backup so i didn't lose any contacts. . just around 500 text messages.
It's just that the custom roms don't put the semicolon between the contacts when you send to multiple people for some reason, just manually put it there. I'm not sure as the the limit of people you can send a single text to. Anyone know?
i use an app called group sms and sent it to a text to about 25 people at once.
I've been trying to send a multimedia message (the size is only 46K), but the message keeps going to my outbox and is then returned to the drafts folder after an error message pops up -"Unable to send your message(s). The message(s) will remain in the Drafts folder." Has anyone else come across this? The signal/reception's strong, and the message isn't big, so that shouldn't be a problem either. I sent one yesterday without any fuss, but I'm on my fifth attempt to send one today with no luck.
are your settings good? (are you able to send an other MMS?)
I had something familiar with my 'old' touch cruise, when it wasn't able to send I retyped the message and then it was able to send (or I had to repeat this one more time)
good luck!
Thanks for replying!
I tried retyping the message, again with no luck, and then I tried sending a different message (12K in size) to a different recipient, and it did the same thing. I asked a friend to send me an MMS, which at first I didn't receive. Now, 15 minutes later, everything works normally again, and I've managed to send and receive MMS messages. I guess it must have just been problems with Orange's server. D'oh!
i have the same problem , i received mms but i cant send.
i got a message "unauthorized".
my operator said that he does not know what is the problem.
i am using sim(2G) and not Usim(3G) , i am still waiting for it from my operator .

i have tried to do it with USIM(3g) and still the same problem .
the phone was unlocked from Orange and i am using other operator.
please help !
i made HR and now it is all OK .
Hi guys,
I've been having issues with sending text messages in the past few days, and it has come on since being at my parents. At first I thought it might have been a problem in the local area, but today I travelled out of the area and my texts aren't getting through still.
I have the delivery report turned on, and each time i send a message that is greater than 160 characters, it comes back saying "The message sent to <recipientname> is not reachable". I've done a bit of googling but I haven't found anything useful. I only really text my girlfriend and we quite often send messages that are 160 characters in length. \
Any ideas what a cause may be? I will be trying to contact the mobile operator (T-Mobile) but I want to be sure it isn't the phone being silly.
Much appreciated if you guys can help
could be a simple hangup between area antennas.
Have you done a soft reset ? If yes, simply run the com wizard again and it should work.
A soft reset has done the trick, thanks
I am having a similar issue except that any text message above 159 characters is not received by one particular person I send it to. I am using my HD2 on O2 contract and the person I am texting is using an LG 910 on Virgin Mobile PAYG. They can send me long text messages fine but they just can't receive them from me.
Also, other people using different phones on different networks can receive long text messages ok from me. Also the person I am texting can receive long text messages from other people.
If I send a long text message with the *0# sequence to request an SMS delivery notification I get a confirmation back saying it was delivered but the person I sent it to never receives the text.
I am wondering if this is some compatibility issue between the HD2 SMS messaging software and the LG 910 phone. Its all very annoying!
Also a soft reset doesn't make any difference either.
Many thanks,
Richard.
As you all now, we can't send sms to more than 20 people at a time. To solve that problem, I downloaded handcent app and I'm able to use group sms now. But, I had two really big problems with messaging.
1) I always receive this message asking me if I want to allow:
"Messaging is sending a large amount of SMS messages. Do you want to allow this app to continue sending messages?"
The thing is, I receive this notification for at least 5 times in a row, while I'm sending group messages and it's just unbearable.
2) I sometimes receive notification from handcent that my messages are not delivered and those times, it's almost 10 messages, making the phone unusable for me. I read that it's a problem with smsc settings, but I receive "This application does not work on this device." error when I want to go to Phone info. My service center address is correct, so I don't know if that is the problem.
I really want to solve this issues, so here is my question. If I install a custom rom, will it solve the "not being able to send to more than 20 people at a time" problem for me, therefore solving all my other problems? And if so, will any custom rom will do, or should I install something specific.
Sorry to keep it long, thanks in advance.
