Just so others can help properly it's worth checking that your text messages are not being received despite the message. For a while I got the message cannot be sent messages but in fact they were being sent!

Oooooh! Not good, hope you they were not sent I ended up with repeated messages sent all over the place. Maybe you could check by sending message to yourself.
Mike
well...i sent msg to myself and it works fine, saying "message successfully sent" but all other numbers it still wont go.

I see a reply from qtotter which I don't follow but may well make sense to you. Just in case qtotter does not have the explanation the following may help.
When I had the problem I began to notice that some numbers worked and some did not according to the message sent pop up. (as I said before all were actually being sent).
In my case it turned out to be to do with whether the numbers were on SIM on Phone or had been imported from SIM. As an experiment you could try re entering one of the numbers that appears not to work and saving it. Then try it again, if it's the same as the problem I had you may find the same number now works. Worth a try?
Mike
i guess what qtotter meant was that SMS in Japan is only possible between Softbank(Vodafone) and AU. Docomo doesnt support SMS...
For the x01th (hermes), it is the only phone in Japan without a proper email address connected to the carrier ( at least to my knowledge, maybe Willcom`s awesome W-Zero series has no email...dont know)
About the issue with the sms...i will look into the contact list/ sim issue.
Guess i will send some SMS and Cmails (AU) around.
Thanks for the tipp....

it's more like there is no way to get an address with x01th and use it on x01th by default. firstly, if you put your sim into another sb phone and go to Y!, you can get an account. secondly, if you install an mms client in x01th and set up vodafone/softbank mms setting, you can actually use mms on it. there is still some problem which happens once in awhile, but it works most of the time.
by the way, zero3 comes with an email address.

i want to try that. my wife will get a SB phone soon. ( i want her to get the 910SH..) maybe i can try to setup SMS/MMS using your suggestion.
If I missed some MMS message because my phone was off or there was an issue with them is there a way to recover or view them?

I believe after a routine startup sync, you should recieve an alert. I get all my voicemails amd missed texts...not too sure I helped, but im puuuurdy sure that unless something is wrong, you should recieve anything missed upon reboot.
Could a senior confirm?
Well this is a little different I was testing a ROM when I was supposed to get a few messages, I didn't, now I'm running DamageControl with the MMS fix but I don't know if I can get these messages now.
If you're on Sprint, you can see all your sent and received MMS messages online. I'd post the link, but this is my first post. Google Sprint PictureMail.

With handcent I have had no trouble on other android phones with simply splitting txts over the limit, but I am getting the dreaded "the proceeding message... blah blah blah"
Anyone have any suggestions ?

thank you, I will
** BUMP **
Is anyone having or not having this issue ??
If everyone isn't maybe its something i'm doing ?
I am just using the regular text messaging client built into the fascinate and noticed when typing a text that there is a counter in the top right corner of my message and it shows a max of 160 characters.
This is a royal pain. There has to be another way to avoid this. The person I am texting is also using the Verizon network as well.
This should probably be added to the list of things that need to be fixed on the phone.
160 Character limit
When I was on froyo stock I did not have this problem, but now I am upto 2.3.5 it still is there. Has anyone been able to fix this?
Are you just on stock 2.3.5? A lot of custom roms I've seen have the option to split SMS messages over 160 characters. It's not a perfect workaround since I've always had longer SMS messages "just work" on other devices, but it's at least something. Maybe look in the settings of the messaging app to see if there's a similar option?
I did, and I could not find any settings on the phone that would limit it.
Sorry about the delay
Hm, that is strange. Short of flashing a different rom I'm not really sure what to suggest. Maybe you could see what Verizon has to say about it since you're using stock software?
it's the network, just the way cdma works. use go SMS or a custom rom.

FWIW, I never had this issue on my incredible, just on the fascinate.
It's your network operator, not the rom. But a special sms app can fake it
Well here it is my fellow androids. We asked for it and Handcent fell through. We should all thank Handcent and their developers for this new big update. Keep in mind this app is still in Beta stage. However, I tested it for a couple of days and I was able to chat with my fellow iPhone lovers. I was also able to chat with verizon Galaxy Nexus, Thunderbolt and LG revolution. I havent had a chance to chat with none Verizon phones. You guys will be our testers. Please list all bugs here and Ill forward the list to the developer. So far there are two bugs with this build. The first bug is double notifications on group mms and the second one is blurry background images with Droid Razor phones
Setup:
1. You must make this app default messaging app for all MMS and SMS.
"settings"->application settings->Default Messaging Application-> All(SMS&MMS)
2. You must enable Thread Group Conversation. Its all the way down in application settings
"settings"->application settings->group messaging->check Thread Group conversation
3. MMS retrieval should be set to Auto unless you want to download each group message.
4. You might experience some lag as the group mms pour in one after another. I think this is normal cuz I do experience it on my Razor maxx using the stock app since it has this this feature built in. In addition, I asked my freind with iPhone 4s if he experiences lag when all these group messages pour in and he said yes. Sometimes he cant touch his phone until all the messages have been received
5. Be gentle on me if I missed any bugs. Im already in the Dog house in my wifes book for spending too much time on this project. This is the reason why the developer is releasing the app for public feedback.
File got updated:
Fixed double notification
fixed some bugs
This file not in market, so you guys are Handcent beta testers.

Loving the capability! It seems to be working well.
Have one question/bug. Some replies say "Me:" and they go to the group. Some replies say "Me to name: and they are going individually to the group it appears.
I did not do anything different I don't think on any of the replies but I may be missing something or this could be a bug.
Thanks for the great feature!

so testing it with cm9 on HTC evo 3D (sprint) doesn't seem to want to send group messages at all. Just get that continuous loading symbol and never sends. I'll test it on stock first and see if it is the problem with the rom and report back

The file has been update. Hopefully fix your issue.
So far I have had it "break" and resort to sending separate messages once. I have three theories as to why...
It may have been due to not completely removing my old Handcent beta first.
I was Texting with friends pretty frequently, and I noticed if I exit the thread and re-enter it would "convert to MMS", Maybe it drops out of MMS if you send several texts in a row?
The thread I was sending to had my google voice number in it, so I was essentially sending messages to myself at the same time.
Sometimes if you have a group message with say Joe Smith as a participant and a separate thread with Joe, getting the group text will show a notification for the separate thread and you have to do "mark as read" to fix it.
I am on a HTC Thunderbolt BTW.
Did not try the updated file yet, downloading now.

An issue happens when you send texts too quickly it sends you back to inbox and doesn't display the messages. From what my friends tell me it displays something weird in their group chat. I have to visually see it to confirm. Love that it actually works though

How is it supposed to work? I tried it with my friend who has an iPhone but it didn't send messages via Internet service but normaly as SMS messages. Friend with iPhone tried to pull his sim card out of phone with no succes. Does it need any special settings to make it work?
Anyway I don't care much cause I have all my SMS free I just wanted to try that function.
I use HC Talk service to chat with my girlfriend everyday so there's no problem about functionless HC Service

In the first post is suggests going to settings>application settings>default messaging application>set it to all sms and mms.
Then settings again>application settings>scroll all the way down>check the thread group conversation box.
Then should work

Thanks for your response...is there a way to use the native messaging app?
Android group messaging out of the box is awful. Tho I wanna say it was grouping properly when I first loaded up my S5. I still would recommend ditching it for Textra. Its vastly superior.
Edit: I just checked my stock messaging app and its grouping properly...
Yes...it groups properly but when ppl respond it is going in a separate text.
Ex. When I send a group text to A and B. When A respond it does go in the group message I sent. Same for B. Are you experiencing this also?
Sent from my SM-G900T using xda premium
Are you asking me if the example is how it works for me? I have NOT used the stock messaging app to send a single message. I just checked to see if it was grouping messages and it was. So beyond that, I really cant offer help.
Seriously tho, ditch it for Textra. You'll be way happier.

In the message settings under Multimedia Message, is the group message option checked? I haven't done a group message over text yet, but when I do I use Hangouts as it always handled group messages well for me.

Yea...there is no option there for group messages under Multimedia Message setting. Yea if i can't find the settings, prob need to install Textra or a messaging app. Thanks.
What I don't understand is why Android STILL cannot handle group texting to more than 10 people.
I have a group text with a group of my friends. We have about 12 people in the group and I can't text in it. I receive all of them just fine but nothing I do let's me send a text. Different phones, different apps, different APN settings...nothing. It's a joke.

I was able to do all these group texting just fine on CM Rom. I am trying to stay with stock for awhile until I get bored and start flashing away..btw I looked at Textra..looks like that app has issues with sending out pictures sometimes so its a no go. If anyone has any ideas or a way to enable group texting (all conversation in one text chain).

Okay i figure out what happen, I was missing a setting that now allow S5 to use group text.
Open up native messaging app, menu, multimedia messages, there should be an option that say group messaging. make sure that is checked.
For some odd reason I was missing that setting and finally found someone on the internet that was having the same issue. a factory data reset resolves the issue. yippppie.
