Hi there
I've had my Wizard for a couple of years now. The other day the SIM card decided it didn't want to work any longer, so I had to replace it. Since then, with the new SIM card I haven't been able to send nor receive SMS. I've flashed the ROM and have put a more up-to-date one, but that hasn't worked.
All I get is the message: "Phone - The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds and try again." No matter how long I wait, it never wants to send or receive SMS. I know it's not the SIM card as I've plugged it into different phones and I receive SMS without any problems.
Bizarre - but can someone please help?
Thanks
Dan
i'm really new to this but i'll try to help out. do you have cingular? and are you able to send and recieve text? if yeah to both of these q's, i think i'll be able to help out. if now sorry and good luck.
unfortunately the answer is "no" to both.
I'm on Orange (UK) and at present can neither send nor receive SMS messages. I know the problem is with the phone as I can both send and receive when I put my SIM card into another phone.
It must be something bizarre, as it just stopped from one day to the next. I thought a new ROM would work, but it's still the same!
Driving me crazy!!!!
Help
sometimes i get my sms late, although it says the exact time the sms was sent, i still recieve it 2 hours later,
when i send an outgoing message, all my sms's come flooding in.. is there a fix for this.. is anyone else experiencing the same prob ??
i am on rom 1.66, official htc
what full rom version you using?
what network you on?
country?
has this been happening long time or recently?
it has been happening recently it was more common before the sms fix, its not all sms's just sometimes,and sometimes i dont recieve the sms at all
i am in uk, on o2 network, using the htc 1.66 rom, the one off the htc website,
i am SO close to selling this and getting an iphone
Give O2 a ring, I had this issue with my Nokia E90, and it turned out to be a corrupt message on their servers.
thanks mate,
dont think its the network mate, gave them a call.. cud it be the htc, becos the sms problems over the past are well known !

its a network problem genrally
delayed sms sound
I have similar problem on htc iolite since the new coocket roo303oom. The message sound is delayed to when i unlock my screen.
Im having exactly the same problem. Im on o2 uk and its really starting to get on my tits.
I sometimes get them an hour or 2 after they are sent, yet they are date stamped with the time they were actually sent. Did you manage to get to the root of the problem? I called o2 weeks ago about it and they just suggested i try a new sim, which they promptly sent me but it has made absolutely no difference. Is this a phone problem or a network problem?
Both of you on O2, I doubt it's got something to do with the phone.
sort of same issue with my HTC HD2 on Voda UK.
MEssages being sent or recived are not arriving on my phone!!
thinking of getting rid of phone now!!
just to annoy you mine works fine on virgin in the uk
Mine works fine on T-Mobile too
SMS delay
could somebody PLEASE find a fix for this !!!,

this is a widespread problem with htc's , if u google , late sms, you wil find, people on all networks are having this problem

Hi everybody,
I'm still experiencing this problem. That happened after the last ROM upgrade (see attached screenshot for current versions).
The message arrived a couple of hours later. Not it's about 24 hours or I don't receive the messages at all.
This might be a coincidence, but I often was browsing with Opera when the messages finally showed up.
I'm using Zenyee disable htc messaging 1.2 as I'm syncing with an Exchange 2010.
It's definitely not the provider, but the phone. I've put my simcard in a standard cell phone where the messages arrived in an instant.
Anybody got an idea?
It not the network, its a file in HTC phones. I havent been able to figure out what was causing it until now. I am 90% sure I know the culprit, but I am not 100% sure. I am on a TP2 and I just ran across this problem today after I installed a cooked rom I made, before everything was fine. I am in the process of testing this theory out. I should have a better idea by either days end, or at latest by tomorrow. I am testing 3 packages out at the moment to see if my theory is correct.
Will keep you posted.
I have the same problem too or sometimes I only get the text if I unlock the phone then I get 3 texts at once also sending text if it has more then 160 but less than 180 (i think ) then ppl don't seem to get my text weird no lol
I've had this problem in my HTC Trinity...
Fortunately I don't have it in the Leo...
Hi there from the title its pretty self explanatory
im from melb, aus
got a "Telstra" Touch HD but im using another different companies Sim card in it
i can make and recieve calls
i did a "Clear storage" but nothing helped there
i read about something referring to "At commands" or "at commanders"
but nothing found doing a search
thanks
same problem with me.. i send a message and after some time it says message could not be sent.. sometime i receive the message with a delay too.. i checked my sim in other phone, there it is fine.. the problem is only in touch
Similar problems connecting to internet and making phone calls
I occasionally have the problem sending texts but more frequently cannot make a phone call or data connection. I have found that if I go into the Comm Manager and set the phone to Airplane Mode and then back to Phone mode that this works 9 times out of 10. However, this is not a very satisfactory or permanent fix. If anyone has a more permanent solution I would be interested in hearing it. I live in the UK and am on the the 3 network. I have a feeling it may be an issue with my provider and not the phone but the help staff at 3 are useless. Thanks!
hey there
sorry for late reply
but i had my service provider reset my messaging service and it worked by the end of the day.
not sure why it was the case. too complicated for me to try and explain probably.
peace

i made a soft reset and cleared the junk out.
everythings going good up till now
i cant send any mms to anyone?

thanks for any help
just saw a custom rom?
will that fix my issue
Hello folks... I have an HD2, and i used the very good rom from tytung, nexus hd2 1.3a nativeSD. Everything worked as it should, till one day unexpectedly the phone stopped being able to receive SMS. I can make calls, send sms, but i am unable to receive SMS. I tried asking my friends to send me a text message, and on their phone (whatever the brand) it doesn't send me the message.
This has never happened to me before. I am on Vodafone Portugal. I seem to be barred on the network from receiving SMS, considering that i can make and receive phone calls properly, as well as send sms to others, but not receive them? Super strange thing that i never seen before...
I don't think it's a rom problem, but i decided to try the following just to make sure:
-factory reset
-wipe everything
-full clean install
-restore backup from older date
None worked, and the problem remains... Have you guys seen this happen before?

I can't say I have encountered this in the past but as far as I know, tmobile in the US can block sms from reaching a phone. This is usually done based on a request from a customer who has no wish to pay for text messages. As far as I know the customer could still send texts (and be billed for them) but will not receive any (no need to worry about junk texts).
I have no idea if this could be your situation but thought it may be worth investigating.
If you have another phone which you know can receive text messages maybe you can move the sim card to it and see if incoming sms works. If not, your provider is blocking them from going to your number. If yes, you are back where you started.

Only in America do you pay to receive texts so its unlikely to be this.
That's not to say it isn't a network problem, so @op, first thing would be speak to your network, and try a different sim.

Sad but probably very true. Our telcos are twisted.
Anyway, I was hoping to illustrate that the provider/network could be the culprit so I think we basically agree.
