[Q] SMS Problem - XPERIA X8 General

good night everyone, here's the following.
i have a Xperia X8 with FroyoBread v.016 and there's a little problem with SMS.
i can receive/send SMS and MMS very well, but i think that this has a little bug. When i send a huge message like yesterday something like 30 pages ( i think it's 30 pages because it appeared 6/30 below send button )
i know it's huge but even when i send a 4 page SMS, the phone can't send it.
it says always -> message not send !
i phoned to Vodafone and they say that the huge message is send without any problem and might be a problem with the receiver. my girlfriend has a phone exactly like mine without any problems and with the same ROM. and the problem is exactly the same when she tries to send me a big message.
is this a bug or a Xperia X8 problem ? :s
by the way, excuse for any error and i'm from Portugal, Vodafone Portugal !
Cheers !

Try to use some other messeging app like GO sms Pro (recommended) or Handcent...

i triyed that but the problem continues. For example, when i write something with "ó" or "á" the caracters that i can write decrease a lot and i think that is the problem :s
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

Did you tried "Split large messeges" function?

text messages get split randomly into 3 ???

Just got a new XDA2 and I'm having a strange problem with text messages. I send a text as a single message ( less than 160 characters ) but at the other end it arrives as three seperate texts. The message appears to be broken up randomly, often broken in mid word. This has happened with messages sent to several different people including one on O2 like me so it seems its not a cross network problem. I've tried changing the phone for a new one and that didint solve it and if I use the same sim card in my old T68i everything is fine... Anyone else experieneced this ?? Any advice very welcome as O2 dont seem to have a clue...

Hi Gavin!
Same problem here , what extras are you running? I have battery pack 2004, MS voice, Games pack 2. then in my inbox 112 sms, sent items 107. also running check notifications. Sound more like an O2 problem :evil: . Anyway let me know if you managed to resolve the problem!
MerryXmas & Happy New Year! :lol:
Kind regards :wink: Jim.
I also had this problem with my MDA II, but only once. Since then, (and even after at least 6 Hard Resets) everything seems to work out fine.
Don't know what causes this problem, but maybe it helps you to know that I had this one in spite of using t-mobile.
MDA II
I dont know if this is related but when I use ' even at less than 160 the messages become split into 2 or more. But when i remove the ' it goes back to the original unsplit form, so I avoid using ' in my sms.
It IS related, as that is the fault. If you do a search on these forums you'll find lots of posts about this...I've posted a few times myself.
You say you bought a new XDA2, I'd be interested in knowing whether this is NEW or new to YOU...in either case does the phone have IntelliPad and IntelliDialer installed? If so, then that would further back up my theory that it's the dictionary that IntelliPad, in particular, uses and causes the old unicode problem.
As advised before on these forums, try going to Inbox > Accounts > Accounts - SMS > "Send SMS messages using UniCode when necessary", and choose No on this option.
See if that helps.
Cheers

hey guys
I had this problem for sooo long and really annoyed my girlfriend, lol!
But the solution is: Goto Settings => input => Wod Completion and turn of ' Replace text as you type'. It splits the message beacause as you type a word like "Im" it automaticlly changes it to "I'm" however the apostrophe in the middle is the curly kind n for some reason isnt supported by SMS. So as long as you send txts with striaght instead of curly apostrophes you should be fine. (well it worked for me! )

sending double sms/ text messages ????

ehh ive got a weird problem (arent they all )
when i sent 1 texmessage/sms the otherside receives 2 messages (2 of the same )..
any ideas ?? what dit i do wrong ?? wrong configuration ??
plz help
greetz jason
This used to happen to me before upgrading to the AUK2 firmware, I think its to do with the phone losing the UTMS signel before comfermation that the message is sent and falling back to using the 2/2.5G network.
I could be wrong but thats what I seemed to notice when it was happening to me.
shift
Yeah I used to only see one sms go but mates told me they were getting 2.
The latest rom updates (xdx exec one in my case) solved the isuse for me too!
Hi, I had the same problem with Orange UK. I've updated to their latest ROM version and it all seems fine now.
sounds about right..
this forum is just great.. you can find every awnser of every question here ..
i simunlocked my T-mobile mda pro and put in my orange sim..
and guess what i couldnt send MMS (it uses UMTS i think ?)
an my girlfriend said that she gets al my smsses double ..
so i think when my T-mobile account activates (11-july )
the probs will go away. (keeps fingers crossed )
OR ....
is there an easy an safe way to change te umts settings so my mda pro will pick up the signal and stuff..
SAFE AND EASY is the key
greetz and thanx a lot.
Dutch subroute, me dutch to.
Do you use the dutch word "wel", like "test eens of hij het nu wel doet"
On all my versions from XDA-I to qtec9090 with several roms, eacht time I type "wel", the PDA will "autocorrect" this to the english verb "we'll"
The added quotes cuts the sms message in two.
on the bottomline of your screen you can see how many characters your message is and how many messages it will send.
I'm curious if this problem happens on your device as well.
yep same here..
LOL with the word 'wel' hehe i had the same problems.
gues only english spelling check available..
but xdaradar
do you also have the double sending sms problem
i have my t-mobile mda pro but its in use with an orange sim
enlighten me.
njet, never encountered that problem, not on my old XDA-I and not on my current qtec9090 with original ROM or tuma 1.3 ROM.
i'm using vodafone GPRS with six (!) inboxes without any problem
- email inbox for exchange mail
- three pop3 email accounts
- MMS inbox
- SMS inbox
they all sync and work arround the clock sending and receiving email
so I have no idea. did you try your simcard in an normal cellphone and what happens then?
hey xdaradar do you have a work around the we'll problem..
its kinda annoying
If this is what I think it is, ensure that you turn off Unicode support in the text options of POutlook.

i don't have the double sms thing, but turning off unicode doesn't help me with the autocorrect of wel to we'll
I used to have this problem with SPB pocket. When you hit the close button the messaging application terminates.
I was advised to add "tmail.exe" to the exclusion list in the spb pocket "Close button" properties.
okay, can I start crying now...?
I got the double SMS sent issue, but I also got the latest
T-Mobile ROM... (2.21.2.108)
PANIC!
Anyone got another idea...?
Sometimes friends even tell me they got the same messag 3 times!
costing a lot... hoping for a solution !
Do you use a task closer like HTC X, MagicButton etc?

SMS
I had the same problem. Found it was becuase I was closing the SMS app before receiving the SMS sent confirmation...
allrighty, so being inpatient, as caused by nature, is being punished ...
hmmz...
Thanks for your reply...

You can find unicode setting from message tab, all messages-menu-settings-options.
If it's not working for u then try updating your ROM.
Now, you can download official ROM from htc site directly.
hey there,
the unicode thing is off and still im having those problems.. hope someone found a solution for it ??
This is a known issue and the sms hotfix has only worked for a small number of people - it's still an outstanding bug. There is a workround though, that works 100% of the time. You need to disable HTC messaging, and use the windows messaging app instead. Once there's a hotfix that actually works, you can go back to the much nicer HTC app.
The option to disable HTC messaging is available in BsB Tweaks. I'd recommend installing that, setting "SMS Mode" to use SMS "classic view", and soft reset your phone. If you have any messages stuck in your outbox, they still won't send, but any future ones will do.
BsB Tweaks is available here...

It worked for me, but then I had success with the hotfix too, so I'm sorted now. I still keep an eye on the outbox though
Good luck mate - hope it solves it for you.
Do the unsent messages remain in the outbox?
In that case, try setting sms mode to GSM instead of GPRS or wait a little while before putting the device in standy after pressing send.
When the device is suspended, it seems the gprs connection is sometimes deactivated and sms over gprs is not sent.
Worked for me; no more messages remaining in the outbox.

Yeah, that's another known workround, but it's not been 100% succesful. Can't wait till HTC sort this proper.
Installing the hotfix worked for me.
"-ish"
What I mean is that I have been able to send and receive SMS but not MMS. Installing the hotfix sorted out sending MMS, but I cannot receive. It may be something to do with O2 who have been having problems.
Whoa! MMS just worked and downloaded the picture, so it must have been O2.

SMS sending fails!

'Hey #Guys!
I have a huge problem° I cant send SMS aanymore...
What could that be?!*
Recieving works like a charm, only sending fails?!
I am on o2 in Germany... ServiceCenter-Number is correct.. and the +49 doens't work neither nor!
I have the same issue. However I am in the US on AT&T. The problem seems to be related to replying. When I reply it appends a zero to the beginning of the number. If I type in the number manually, it works fine.
Sent from my HD2 via XDA App (mattc 1.5 build)
I understand... I am just wondering why it worked the other day! Then I had a freeze, I put out the battery and wooza sudenly my sd card was kinda formatted... only a readme file was left... I installed everything the same on the same way I did before my phone crashed... same build and everything,, but now it ain't working anymore... Is there any app to send sms anyways?In
I did a bit more investigation. I think replying to an SMS is putting a 0 where the + should be so instead of +1214-345-6789 it's trying to reply to 0214-345-6789
AT&T is choking on the zero.
See my setup below and see if you're running something similar.
BTW, it works fine in WinMo.
I got the same problem, anyone solved this? Im in desperate help please, i cant send sms anymore,,,
Any help? Please

this is the last time I will ask for help here in this thread before I create a new thread....(SELF CLAIMED SEARCH POLICE BETTER SHUT THEIR MOUTHS)
Anyone, help me?
Same Problem here, are you Using HTC-Sense? I've tried the 001 Fix but that just fixes the calls, and I think its gets rid of the + in replying in sms, as I get message saying failed cant send numbers to 44, as its needs the "+"44 to reply.
the only work around is to compose a new sms, but its longer way to reply, but it works.
I can't even send new sms.....but making phone calls is working for me...
I'm using desire hd build..

Unable to send messages from WildFire

Hi to all,
Unfortunately,for several days unable to send massages from WildFire.
When i trying to send msg i get notice-"unable send message after multiple attempt".
By the way i tried to enter into a 'Service Center' but there isn't option to change something there.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.
My girlfriend has the same issues with her Wildfire, both using the buildin SMS application and with ChompSMS.
Some times she gets the error too (several times a day) and she has to resend the messages. The really weird stuff is though, that the receiver actually sometimes do get the message the first time resulting in that the receiver gets the message several times.
And I have the exact same issue with my Desire.. Right now I'm searching high and low for a solution. I've talked to my provider (BiBoB, Denmark, using Telenors network), and they've told me that they could not see anything unusual about the message, so it would either be our phones or our SIM cards.
Since some others have problems too, I suspect Android.

I think it something wrong with my sim card,because,if i change the phone to desire i also can't to send sms.and another sim cards works fine with wildfire and desire.
so i need to check with my provider what the problem.
Facebook to blame for identical problem
Had this problem with my wife's Wildfire last night. Turns out, Facebook was to blame.
The number of the person she was sending the text to changed on Facebook to the format "447### ######" instead of "07### ######". The link between the contact on the phone and Facebook meant the Facebook contact number became the default for that person and as the number wasn't valid, it failed when trying to send a text message or dial a voice call.
Fortunately, the contact in question was me so I removed my number from Facebook and the one on the handset started to work again....

I've tried to desibale sync with facebook and now i'm using only sim-cards phones number, but still enable to send sms,so unfortunately i don't think the problem in facebook at least in my case.

Are you trying to send an SMS or MMS ?
For MMS you need to configure the APNs of your provider:
