i've noticed that i sometimes get message failed to send message. this happens maybe 5 times a day i've had it far worse maybe 10 times in one day. I never had this problem on my galaxy s4 so i'm wondering if this is a SIM card problem? i am using the sim that came pre-installed too. I haven't moved out of the area im still using my phone in the same places as i usually do commuting to school and work. Has anyone had a problem with their message not sending? it's annoying
I have seen this with a number of our phones on WiFi over the years. Mostly with attachments, but not always. Normally if I turn off WiFi it will send. I have no idea what causes this bit we are a 6 phone house , 2 carriers, all different phone's. The only one that I have never seen do it us my wife's HTC. My old Nexus did it a lot. This phone, my g2 has done it a couple times with mms.

Same issue here. With regular texts. Several times a day. I end up restarting the phone and then it sends. Extremely annoying and it's only happening on this phone. Thought it might be a defective phone, but seeing you have the issue as well... maybe it's software related?

In my experience, it seems like it happens most often when I get a message as I'm sending one.

Anybody else have this problem? At completely random times, I just can't send text messages. I receive them with no problems, but I cant reply or intiate a conversation. They always say "sending." They sometimes send maybe an hour later or so, or I'll just restart my phone a few times which eventually allows them to send. Anybody elsehave this problem? Or is it just me....

This happens to me randomly, more so with my Hero than my Epic. I usually just reboot and it will go through. Sometimes switching to airplane mode and then back again will do the trick.
Happens to me on occasion. Has to do with the network not available when it happens despite the fact it shows good singal strength.

That and Sprint has been having 'issues' w both voice and data for a while now, like a couple months...? it is a 'known' issue (i.e. dont *****, they cant figure it out yet). Could be worse, you could get the 4am bulk mms sendout of your girls naughty pic she sent you (theres a thread about that issue...). I would save your mms, back up sms if you care, and delete all history... that may prevent sprint from messaging everyone you know.
Hello,
I have a problem with my Atrix that's been bugging me ever since i bought it.
Carrier: VIVO
Country: Brazil
Current Version: CM9 jokersax build, android ICS 4.04
Symptom:
- Whenever i receive an SMS, there is a high chance (>80%) that this message will be received again. There are some messages that are received over 20 times.
- Some SMS never arrive (roughly 20% of them)
Early solution:
Back in Froyo (2.2), you could disable cell broadcast in the network configuration, and that, somehow, fixed the problem. But that is not the case now.
In later versions, specially modded versions, there is no such option to enable/disable cell broadcast. I even installed CM9 ICS with high hopes that this would fix the problem. It in fact did work, for a couple of days, then today, it began to receive repeatedly the same SMS over and over again, and some SMS were lost to the void.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Maybe its a problem with your carrier?

Wrong, it also does this on my phone and I have AT&T

When you receive the same text message over and over it can be either your phone or a carrier (sender or receivers carrier).
If your phone is not sending a "message received" signal, the message will be repeated, sometimes for up to 72 hours before it times out with the senders carrier. In this scenario a simple reboot can sometimes fix it. In other cases you may have to pop your SIM into another phone, receive the message (at which point the phone will send the received signal), then put your SIM back in your original phone.
Messages can also get "stuck" and the senders carrier thinks the message has been received when it hasn't, and so stops repeating the message.
There's a bunch of reasons you can have SMS problems. At the end of the day it can be your phone, the senders phone, your carrier, or the senders carrier, and the fault can be hard to trace with the tools the carrier customer service reps have at their disposal.

Happened to me on AT&T once. Got the same message 25 times. Was on joxersax 4.4 if I remember correctly. Has not happened on 4.5.1
Had same problem... with ics jokersax, I started updating regularly and haven't had a problem yet
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I'm currently using jokersax 4.5.1 and it is still happening.
I can only think its a problem related to the "cell broadcast" channels.
Had this happen to me when once I first flasshed Codename Android. Hasnt happened since though.
I get this from time to time when someone texts me and for whatever reason my phone doesn't have signal. Typically its because I am rebooting it or its off for some reason.
Any new messages sent from the person (almost always the wife) come across as the stuck text.
I typically pull the battery and reboot once or twice to clear it.
It seems like you have a more persistent issue though.

I had that problem too on one of jokersax builds. I tried the reboot which didn't work which could of helped the next step work when I dialed a number then ended it, that seemed to fix my problem.

Hey guys,
Just want to see if anyone else has noticed an issue that has happened to me a couple times. My n4 "loses" its network connection for both received calls and sms.
Status bars indicate a good signal (no hollow triangle) and data works fine during these events. I first noticed when my neighbor came by telling me he sent me a couple messages which I never received although I had been playing with the phone all day.
After rebooting I received many sms and voicemail message indications.
The scary part is there is no way to know when it's happening. There is no indication of lost signal and data service continues to works fine - all calls just go straight to VM and no SMS or VM notifications are delivered.
Any ideas? should I return/exchange it? Thanks for any help.
here's me:
network is Tmo (happened in 2 different cities)
network status bars indicate good signal
data service continues to work ok (3g/4g)
stock, not rooted, phone is only 3 weeks old
still on 4.2.1
I've had this happen to me once don't know why though.

At first I suspected the light flow app because this happened right after installing the app. I thought maybe the app was messing with the notifications so I uninstalled it - but then problem happened again. Also, many people are using the app with no issues so i suspect my phones radio is at fault.
I think I'll RMA it. Thanks!
Crap, i just left Sprint after 11 years of service with them for the exact same reason. Started mid December and by mid Jan and several Network Trouble tickets they had no clue how to fix it and blamed it on network congestion. End of Jan i officially ported to TMO.. Hope this doesnt happen to me again..
I started a thread with similar problems, but I also loose data connection. I get a message on the notification bar about it.
In my case it only happens if I turn wifi on and leave HSPA running, so I have to switch to 2g only for the problem to disappear.
Called Tmobile and they have no clue what is causing the problem.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. I've used tmo for years and never had this problem before - only with the nexus 4 the last couple weeks. If this type of issue was more wide spread I think there would be more people complaining about missed calls/txt.
It sure makes me paranoid though. I am now calling my phone a couple times per day (from my work phone) and sending myself SMS messages just to be sure my phone is working.
I just updated to 4.2.2 so maybe that will help. If it happens again I'll exchange it.

What type of notification do you get? In my case there is no notificaion, the only way to tell if its happening is to place a test call or sms from another phone.
I do notice it occurs after heavy HSPA use but I havent been able to duplicate the problem. It's almost as if after heavy use of an HSPA channel the MSC location update is purged - so all calls go straight to voice mail and sms messages are queded in the SMSC (just a guess). Then after flight mode toggle or reboot location update occurs and all is good.
It happened again yesterday so I've gone ahead an ordered a replacement.
I get a triangle notice in the notification bar. And I narrow my problem with my location.
Did you ordered a new phone?

Which baseband are you on?
I was on the latest 4.2.2 update with the old .33 baseband and I couldn't make or receive calls. To be more specific, my phone was mute as the call was going through. I could not hear the ringing tone. So I flashed the new .48 baseband and it worked.
Well, what I experience sometimes is:
When I leave a WiFi connection, the phone (sometimes) wouldn't reconnect to mobile data (I can only receive calls atm). In order to reconnect it, I have to toggle airplane mode.
Kinda the opposite, but maybe the same solution can be proposed?
My temp solution is to switch to 2g only and turn on wifi. That seems to do the trick
As for baseband I'm rooted with stock rom 4.2.2 and CMW recovery

Ok I got off the phone with customers support and they're aware of the problems.
They're replacing the phone. So I guess I got to return the phone to stock

Hi does anyone have issues with sending messages in whatsapp with the nexus 4?
One issue I have only experienced after getting the nexus 4 is quite often messages take a while to send.
I have attached a screenshot.
As you can see its 5:45pm, I have messages I sent at 5:43pm and 5:44pm, and still have not sent yet.
When I first noticed this issue I thought at first it was a issue with my data, but as you can see here I am still receiving messages so my data connection is obviously ok.
I didn't have this issue with the One X or the Galaxy S3, I am still using the same sim and provider. This is getting very frustrating.
I have also noticed a couple of times that I have closed whatsapp not noticing it hasn't sent and only to find a bit later after opening whatsapp again that the messages still haven't sent!
Try.... taking your sim out and in, upgrading to 4.2.2, test in wifi and 2g mode
Check your network...sometime it is the culprit.
I have no problem in China and HK but when I went to Indonesia last month it was behaving same as yours.
Initially I thought it's my phone. The data signal is full but message sent was slow and at time you received several messages at the same time.
I'm back in HK and experience none of this now
PS.
Network = 2G/3G....try to test it with reliable wifi
Used to happen a lot with 4.1.2 but since I flashed PA's rom, this issue has been solved, thankfully!
thanks for the replies, I've noticed it wasn't happening in wifi but I am still using the same sim as the one X and S3, so its not likely to be an issue with the provider.
I have updated to 4.2.2 and it is still happening.
This is starting to seem like an issue with whatsapp and the stock rom?
Have you tried cleaning the sim?
I am having this exact same issue.
I also seem to get s load of whatsapp messages through at once when the the phone has been sleeping for quite a while (even on WiFi)
Which provider are you with?
I'm currently on a orange (ee) contract

Nope, but I don;t see how this would have any issue, data and phone calls are all fine.

I am in Hong Kong and using PCCW.
I have just reinstalled whatsapp and reset my APNs and still having the same issue
I think this could have to do with what network you are on.
I know this isn't 100% the issues your having. But it looks related...

that's related to wifi, and while the messages don't sent I am able to receive messages,
Has anybody reported this bug to Google and WhatsApp? They should both be informed, because we can't know whose fault this is.
I am from HK and useing PCCW too , i am using QQ2013 , and it also show cannot send message :silly:
I am on PCCW in Hk Too, I do face this issue sometimes. It takes a while to send a wtsapp msg. Besides wtsapp. There are also some issue in using mobile network. Sometimes when I want to use the network, The H logo shows full reception. but without the "loading arrow" besides it, So that the pages doesn't load. I have to solve it by turning off the data and reopen, Then, The "loading arrow" appears and the network back to normal.
That's annoying
Uh oh, I'm seeing a pattern here. I'm in HK on CMHK.
Though WhatsApp message-sending is the big issue for me, it seems like there's some lag/timeout when browsing the web as well.
Experiencing t same issue on watsapp as well as the browser. It seems t ping is really slow. At times need to reload the page. Also it is not specific to browser. It happens with different apps. T network all t time is full. However not yet noticed anything like tat on wifi.
Any clue to fix t issue. Its really annoying.
Thanks

I have the same problem on Telenor in Sweden.
I have noticed that, when I have a message waiting to be sent. If I start the web browser and reload a page and return to Whatsapp it has been sent. I can reproduce this problem 100%.
So the problem doesn't seem to be network related. I would imagine we get a bug fixed Whatsapp soon.

I suspect there's an OS problem. WhatsApp may be able to work around the issue (tricking the OS into getting its act together and sending the packets that need to go out), but it's Google that needs to release a fix.
I just created a bug report here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=52260&thanks=52260&ts=1362026130
Star it if you want to be notified of developments (and show Google that you care about the problem).
I added a comment to the bug report you made, but I'll post my experience here as well. I find that sometimes the phone doesn't switch from 3G to HSPA when it needs to. It happens to me in WhatsApp but also on other apps like Twitter or Facebook, where I send a message or refresh the feed, and it just stays stuck there. No data is transmitted, so it doesn't even switch from 3G to HSPA. Eventually it seems to "wake up" and realizes there's something requesting a connection and it goes through.
It happened to my while i was on Xylon and now on paranoidAndroid, i'll be texting back and forth with someone, then suddenly I won't receive texts from them, and none of their texts download until a reboot. They still receive all of my texts and I receive calls just fine, so it's strange.
Any ideas how I can even troubleshoot this? I wouldn't even know how to reproduce the issue. And I don't think it's a data issue because I always have full bars when I'm home.
I've been having this issue randomly. Are you on at&t? I'm wondering if it's a network issue.

Yes I am on AT&T, but I've been with AT&T for years and not had this issue so I'm inclined to believe that it's the phone. Also I don't think I've ever had this issue before I flashed custom ROMs, but again i'm not sure.
I've had MMS issues since stock though. Sometimes they wont send, sometimes they wont download.
