Cant send but can receive sms - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

So it was working yesterday without issue. I can recive text but cannot send them with default messenger. If I use hangout for sms it will work. All sent messages said failed. I have cleared messenger from apps and even gone as far as a factory reset. I am at a lost.
Tried with WiFi calling on and off. WiFi on and off. Safe mode. Nothing is letting the default messenger send.
My only luck I had once was while it was booting I was able to send a message
Did more trouble shooting. Problem is while on lte. Called and opened a ticket with the engineer

Do you have WiFi calling enable? I heard that played an issue for some people

I had the same problem I turn off wi-fi calling and Voice over LTE the fix the problem for me. I can send and receive sms/mms .

I also have intermittent problem sending sms/mms. It would report as failed but the other end actually receives it. Will try disabling wifi calling.

Failing to send texts..

Does anyone else have this problem when i send a text i get a notify that it failed then it sends.

I get that at work sometimes, then I turn on WIFI calling and my texts go right through, wish I had better signal at work...

MMS Notification but when i click there is no message

So this has now happened to me twice, yesterday being the second time.
I'll get a notification for a message at the top, both times it has been after I already had another SMS message that I had not checked yet, then when I click on the notification to bring up the messaging app there is only one of the two messages waiting there in the list. Both times I have texted the person back and they did indeed send me some type of picture message. After resending I receive it the second time. It makes me worried that maybe we could be losing messages and not even know it. It seems to me this is a software bug (vs. Carrier problem since the phone shows a notification for the message)
Has anyone else seen this problem?
I'm on stock 4.2.2 but the first time it happened was on 4.2.1 about a month ago.
Yea, happen to me as well when I was connected to WiFi. Turned off the WiFi, and told them to send them again and it received them that time. Maybe an issue when connected to a WiFi connection?

I think you have to be connected to data in order to receive a MMS message. Wifi will not work. You will get a notification but no picture.
Of course you can't receive a MMS over a wifi, the problem is that the phone is not switching over to mobile data to receive pictures while connected to wifi. I also have this problem.

I don't quite understand your statement. You say you can receive MMS over wifi but then you say the phone has to switch to data in order to receive the picture? How is that different that what I said?
Sorry, autocorrect stole my apostrophe t. I meant cant as in can not.
I have the same issue. The slide down text msg notification icon reported 3 texts from 3 different senders. When I clicked on the icon I am taken to my text msg inbox but only 2 of the 3 text msgs where there. I then verified with my friend that he did indeed send me a text msg. I have never had an issue receiving MMS texts over WiFi. I use WiFi exclusively at work and home. So I had created the same type of thread on the androidcentral forums.
That's exactly what happened to me today, twice! My girlfriend sent me three MMS, I got the first one and two notifications after. But when tapped, all I saw was the first MMS.
My connection was poor, I thought that could be the cause...

Yea I was wondering if it is a carrier issue or if its LG or Google ?
I think a part of the issue is that the phone creates the notification the moment it recognizes that there is an incoming MMS instead of when the MMS is actually received and able to be viewed.

Well that would be fine if it is a preview of the MMS before it arrives, but when it never arrives is where the problem is. There has got to be a solution. I can't help but wonder whom has sent me a text of which I did not receive.
this happens to me also. its annoying. but i do have my wifi on all the time, so I will try it without wifi on, and see what happens.
I'm having this problem as well and I don't like any of the third-party apps. Has anyone found a fix? Thanks.
Well, I contacted T-Mobile, my carrier, and they went through a lot of troubleshooting. It basically came down to turning on mobile data alongside WiFi because apparently MMS msgs need data to send and receive. Sucks, but there it is.

Did you happen to fix this problem? Same thing going on with my v20 and Hangouts.
Are you using wifi calling? On my old Note 4, I had problems with MMS in Hangouts while wifi calling was turned on, so I've just left it off on my V20.
Depends on carriers...but generally Hangouts has always been buggy as hell since it was first released.
I could send MMS to non Sprint phones....but could not send to Sprint phones. Receiving worked fine.

Nougat trouble

Anyone else having problems after the Nougat update? I can't send phone calls through the stock dialer. I can get a call out by clicking a number on a website or by using my textra app but not the traditional way. I am completely stock. Any ideas?

Done a factory reset yet to see if that will cure dialing issue?
I have not. I'm hoping to avoid that. But I will if it continues.

Have you tired clearing the app data?
Not sure how to clear that data.

Have you gone to the app settings and made sure the dialer is the set app for making calls?
I looked. Don't know where to find that.

I was having the same issues too. I tracked it down to wifi calling. Had to turn it off to get it to work.

Same here. After upgrading to Nougat on stock HTC 10 Verizon variant, when selecting the "Phone" icon from the app drawer it would say "Operation denied". Open up the all apps icon on the home screen. Select Phone icon and drag to the home screen and replace the old icon. You can now open the phone dialer. Hope this helps you too.
I'm having the wifi calling issues as well. If wifi calling is turned on and I'm connected, it won't make calls out. If I'm connected to WiFi and turn off wifi calling it works fine. Haven't tried a factory reset yet but we'll see.

FYI factory reset didn't help me at all
Great. We can always try again after an RUU is available
Spoke to a Verizon rep online and they have not received any other reports of the wifi calling issue. Is anyone else experiencing issues with the play store and Google Assistant? Probably not related to the update but just wanted to ask.

While connected it an active wifi network you can;t dial out with wifi calling enabled. Not a phone icon issue on this one. I reported to verizon and they are sending a new phone

Wi-Fi calling has never been a problem , I always have it enabled. Can dial out just fine on or off Wi-Fi network or 4G.
In response to the "OP" who also could not use his "stock dialer" same as me.
By going to the "all installed apps" and selecting the dialer icon you are using the stock dialer version 8.10.878172 thereby replacing the "leftover" Version 7 Marshmallow dialer. Thats why it would say "operation denied" when using the "old" dialer icon.
Again, this solved my problem. Without having to fatory reset. Nothing to do with Wi-Fi calling in this instance.
google services not updating
I have been having intermittent issues on startup with Gmail not being able to retrieve email or updating, and Play Store also not working. Some days there are no problems, and others nothing works. I have the HTC 10 Verizon phone.
So I did more investigation on my wifi calling issue. For the people people that said wifi calling works after the update. Under the roaming preferences do you have it set to prefer wifi or cellular. If i have wifi selected no outgoing calls can be made if you are connected to a wifi network.

Verizon Messages MMS issue

For some reason, every now and then, I'll send an MMS using Verizon Messages, and it will get stuck on "sending", and never send. This happens when connected to WiFi or data. If I delete the MMS, and send it using Samsung Messages, they go through immediately. Anyone know what that could be? I never had the issue with my S9. It only started when I got my Note 10 Plus. I've tried uninstalling and installing the app, and also going back to older versions, and it didn't help.
