Can't send some sms.... - Touch HD General

Does anyone knows why i get sometimes error "Your text message cannot be sent"? It happens sometimes, not always. I try to sent on one number and it got error and then i sent on other number and everything is fine. If a mobile is turned off, message should be sent and after it's turned on he/she should get a message.
Just don't get it.

hi
this is happening to me too. i realy cant understand what is wrong.
happen only some times, if i send sms to myself it run, if i send to others dont work, but just sometimes.
any help will be appreciate.
thanks
ciao

can I ask you guys which network you're on? I sometimes get the same thing...and sometimes I get no error message but hours later when I check my outbox..the message is still sitting there, and only gets sent when I reset my phone. I'm with O2

Try connection settings - send sms - gsm

I've experienced a similar problem, and narrowed the problem down a bit. I only seems to happen when you reply to a sms message. When the problem occurs try to send a new sms to the contact, go through the contacts tab and select "send sms". A bit annoying but fortunately i don't experience the problem that often.

I live in Croatia so I guess it's not a problem of some particulary network...
What I did:
- sending to a saved contact and to a tiped number - so it's not a number problem
- I always made a new sms (never reply)
- didn't helped soft reset
- I sent sms over gsm and 3g - same problem

Hi guy,
China Mobile for me.........
ciao

this symptom happens to me too, I am in Vietnam. The problem happens when replying (a few) message but not when creating new ones. Help us if anybody finds any clue

I google it a little and i saw it isn't a problem just with HD, also with other htc models - but i didn't find a solution....

Did anyone get any answers to the above thread?
I had the same problem..

sms replying

hi,
when i receive a sms, i notice if i use the reply option my sms will not go through...it says sent but actually not get delivered. i have to use the NEW option all the time. anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?
The same thing happens to me!
But in my case, it says NOT SENT!
only the NEW option works....!
I guess its something with the Radio unit!
ezzkht,
u ever solved the problem or know the cause of it?
Nop! I never find a solution for it
I guess it could be a problem with the SMS message center!
I remember the Nokia phones, there has been an option under the SMS menu, named USE SAME MESSAGE CENTER WHEN REPLYING!
When I used to put this option on, replying to SMS won't work with me, but once I turn it off, everything goes alright!
I donno if there's such an option in Pocket PC :?

I have the same problem on Tmobile's system here, but only when replying to cingular customers. TMobile has a ticket open for me but it has been open since February, I was told in May that it would probably be another 6 months before they got it fixed. The problem I have found is that when you reply it uses 11 digits instead of 10.....If you do a message with 10 it gets delivered, if you do it with 11 it says sent on your device but never gets past their server. If you do a delivery confirmation on the replies then you will get them back after a couple of days detailing the problem above, or at least I do.

SMS blocked... or lost!

Hi Guys,
i have a MDA Vario and I love that thing. But I recognized with the time.. that SMS are blocked. Over night I turn off my phone and when I turn it on the next morning, no message is coming. A lot of my friends asked me if i got their message last night.. They sent it to me after i have turned it off. And on the morning i didn´t got anything. No message.
Last week i registered myself on a Website where a SMS-Registration was necessary. I clicked on "send the Message". The MDA Vario blinked up.. and I expected that it will ring and signalize the message. But nothing. I never got a message. The SMS is lost till now. And i´m afraid that there are some more messages which got lost.
Does anyone recognized the same Problems like me? Or can anybody help me? :?:
Thx
Maresch
where are my new messages?
got the same problem. SMSs just stopped comming. i started using sprite backup - the only change in used programs.
hardresetted device works, but after restore: no go. even microsoft activesync backup restores settings with no SMS...
any thoughts on this?

This MAY NOT be your case, but...
Sometimes (although the "nice" people at Sprite Software won't recognize it), after restoring a backup made with sprite backup, the SMS inbox folder (and sometimes even other folders like draft and trash) stop working. The effect varies:
you may see "x messages unread" but the new messages are not visible.
you may never see new messages.
the new message notification can stop working, with or without the other symptoms.
recovering from this problem is difficult: the easiest way is, ofcourse, and hard reset. if you want, SMS Organizer can still extract the messages from the damaged database most of the times.
SMS lost - not received
This is interesting - I have posted exactly the same behaviour - only some SMS received.
I can recreate the problem that you describe almost at will - It is not related to any backup software - it happens on a "virgin" XDA after hard reset without anything being loaded or even an Active sync attempted.
bottom line is: put your XDA in a spot where the reception is weak and switch it off. Send two messages to the phone. It will wake up trying to receive the first message. It will loose the network and re-aquire, but no SMS will be received. (although a confirmation message will be sent) - as it is awake now it will receive the second message. The first one will be lost forever.
I have upgraded ROM to no avail. I had it in for repair twice - still same problem. O2 has now agreed to exchange the unit. I will keep you posted.
My concern on reading this is, that this is an issue with the unit itself.
Certainly hope I dont have any issues as I send and receive a lot of sms messages and any kind of failure like this would mean the phone being sent back and contract cancelled unless I can find a different phone that interests me. Unlikely as I was only considering this or the XDA Exec.

SMS Problems

oi,
i (and it seems like others as i´ve read in a german forum do as well) have serious problems with sending sms.
- some of them arrive twice
- some of them arrive in a "scrambled" way ...like mixed up with old ones
- and sometimes old ones are being sent a second time
this does not happen all the time - and it happens with several recipients.
i´m using a "naked" o2 trion. no other software (well, total commander and a media player) installed. it also happend back in the days when i used my t-mobile card with it.
this is really pissing me off ...because some of the recipients already think that a) their mobile is the prob. b) i´m nuts or an idiot who´s too stupid to send a simple text message
and help, hint, suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same Problem (sending SMS twice) ..
but I'm not sure if it's really a Problem based on the device, cause the double SMS are only billed once! (at least on my account)
And as I have been told only people using other Providers get my SMS twice..
never heard of any fellow T-Mobile User getting my SMS twice...
so it seems to be a combine Problem of HTC Devices (got that error since MDA1) and our Providers
did you force your network to gsm or umts?
or does it auto-switch depending on where you are located?
Sending twice happened to me when I disabled the 'message sent' warning and was closing the messages program before that warning would have appeared if it were active.
It was as though the machine sent the message quickly, but when the program got shut down too soon, was not sure it had done that and just sent it again.
Since re-enabling that warning and waiting each time for it I have had no more trouble.

well I think this is exactly the point...
just keep the messaging software running and you won't have any problems
Sms sending 2 or 3 times
I'm not sure that above solution is true for all. I often get a specif notification saying message cannot be sent, but in fact it has been. Tendency is to send again and again still getting not sent message. Recipient ends up with several messages. I was given number of someone at HTC who seemingly can talk through a solution for this one. Don't have number to hand but will post later, nor have I spoken to them yet.
re my last post, I was given following info:
If you call HTC support Hot line they will talk you though how to resolve this..
The number is - 0845 8900079

sms with delay

Hi there, due to the fact that the search option doesn't work with less then 4 characters, i can't search for "sms".
But here's my real problem:
I've flashed different roms into my mda vario, after unlocking it. First the Molski.biz rom, then the last original t-mobile rom, but it was toooo slow, i've imediatly deleted it, en flashed the mr clean rom.
But in all roms i have some delay in recieving sms-messages.
Half the time they appear directly after they were sent by my friends, but sometimes i get them after a few hours. for example: it was sent at 15:00, and i received it at 17:30.
And sometimes i don't get any sms-messages, and after an soft-reset, i get 10 at one time, all delayed.
does anyone know what to do about it? or what causes it?
Regards,
Twan
i sometimes get this too though not often its usually when my phone loses signal and when it comes back into signal it wont recevie txt messages until i soft reset or send another txt out then ill get like 4 all at once lol.
Wizard isnt the best phone for txtin i must say as i send a good 1,000 txts a month and so far its poor.
Sounds like a network issue to me...
The network isn't registering the phone or something similar. For SMS the towers "push" the messages to the phone. Queuing them when they don't detect the phone on the network. If the phone is on the network and not getting the messages until it is reset and forced to re-acquire its signal than it is a network problem.
I've seen this problem on a few networks regardless of phone make and model.
I would agree with the above, its a provider issue not a phone issue.
I have a debate with Orange about 10 years ago about not getting text messeges when I loose and then regain service. I was told that when a text is sent to a phone that is off or lost a signal the message is stored until a set time has passed and then delivery is retried, thus getting all the messages at once. The way 'around' this is the disconnect the phone from the network and re-connect. This forces a scan of the message queues and again you will get all messages in one go.
I would assume going in to Flight Mode and back will do the same thing as a soft boot, but I have not tested this.
Okay,
so i could suggest it's not quitte an rom- or wizzard-issue, but a network-issue.
I also think going to flightmode and back will solve the problem. So we will hear from you if that's a solution?
I'm busy reflashing a new rom into my wizzard.

I would hope that as you seeing the problem that you could test this. I get all my texts on time (luckely) so I can't help you I am afraid, I can just share my thoughts.
Let us know how you get on.

I've tried, but now there's nobody who has sent me an sms
ghehe, i'll wait....
but i do think it will work.
i'll keep you posted
This is happening to me all of a sudden and its not a network issue. I have 4 phones on my account and i texted between all of them and only my phone won't get the messages UNLESS I reboot my phone or use smartskey to close a window.
Here is the strange part, when a text message is sent to my phone, the screen turns on, but doesn't show the message pop.
Is smartskey blocking it?
Also, closing a window by clicking on the X also kicks the message to come through

Sms problems

Hi everyone!
First of all, i have searched for this issue and I found nothing.
When I send a sms to a contact, sometimes It appears on my phone to be sent but the contact never receives it on his phone! I've noticed that it happens when it's a quite long message (~200characters). when the message is short ( ex: Hey What's up?) I never get that problem!
Does anyone have ever seen that problem? I use Artemis Rom and I get that problem with only a few contacts.. Maybe It's because of the operator? (I'm in france, and I have "Orange" and my girlfriend too and she doesn't receive my sms... I was at her side when I tried Lol..)
Thanks for your time and your help and excuse my english, I'm french!
Good afternone
Up Please!
It's annoying...
I've flashed a few times and the problem still comes! I've tried to use another phone (like a crappy old motorola) and I don't get any trouble.. So I think it's from the HD2!
Any solution?
Thanks
Same problem with my hd2 also.
i get msgs after 30 ~ 45 minutes after being sent to me.
Fed up from hd2 for this mess.
