Cannot send SMS

I have a Apple Watch watch OS 2.2.2 (13V604) running and one 5 iPhone with iOS 9.3.5 (G 13, 36). Previously, I found that the watch would not send SMS free hands unless I turned on iMessage; These messages would simply disappear, but things seemed to work for a few weeks after iMessage has been activated.

Now, I find that the following will happen if I try to send messages to someone who doesn't use iMessage (e.g., Android users):

'Hey Siri, send a message to $PERSON saying $MESSAGE'-> in a few seconds, a notification indicating that the message is not sent. The message does not appear in the mail app on the iPhone, but I know that many have unsent messages in the message shows application (it seems impossible to return or reject these). If I select a message manually via the mail app on the watch (whether by you answer or make a new) then it is sent correctly.

Unfortunately, the sending of text messages hands-free for Android users is very high on the list of the essential requirements for the use of this watch. Can anyone suggest how to deal with this? NB. I already turned iMessage market again and power cycled shows and the iPhone.

Hello

It can help to switch send as SMS works again:

-On your iPhone, in settings > Messages > Send as SMS.

    Cannot send SMS on Verizon device
    Posted the: March 7, 2007 20:11
     
    The following code snippet to send a text SMS using WMA works very well on a T-Mobile (e.g., 8700 g) and a Cingular device (e.g. 8700 c):

    Con MessageConnection = MessageConnection) Connector.open (address);

    TextMessage msg = (TextMessage) con.newMessage (MessageConnection.TEX T_MESSAGE);

    msg.setAddress (address);
    msg.setPayloadText (content);
    con. Send (MSG); throws IOException on Verizon devices

    However, the same code does not work on Verizon devices (e.g., 8703e and 7130e). The line: con.send (msg) throws an IOException exception. I tried to use different formats for "address" (e.g. "1234567", "+ 1234567", "8001234567", "+ 8001234567", '18001234567', ' + 18001234567 ", etc." "") but they all failed.

    Does anyone know if sending messages SMS using WMA is supported on devices from Verizon?

    I also note the same problem on a Sprint BlackBerry Pearl and 8830. Namely, impossible to send SMS messages and we get an IOException with null message when it fails. Exactly the same code works fine on blackberry mobile PHONE.

    Is there a solution to this problem?

    I think the quality of RIM devices on CDMA technology is of bad quality. RIM rushes these devices at the door. In addition to not being able to send SMS, Sprint devices also seem to inexplicably lose network and requires a MASTER WIPE to restore network connectivity. None of these problems occur on the bays of GSM.

    Someone could rim please chime in here and confirm whether or not sending SMS CDMA phones should work? I burned just 3 hours playing with different things and play with smsdemo.

    If this is a bug, it would be nice to have confirmation that we can all stop wasting our time.

    If it's something that requires the operator level signature, it would be nice to know, too.

    By program, sending messages on mobile CDMA is currently not supported. As a possible workaround, you can use the API call to send SMS messages via the Messaging Application:

    True... but this just opened the app with pre-filled information. How to send without user intervention?

    This is possible by using the EventInjector and the trackball/wheel orders to send the message using the menu of the injection.

    Here is an example of code that seems to work on Sprint and Verizon devices:

            DatagramConnection connection = null;
            try {
    
                byte[] bytes = messageAsString.getBytes();
                connection = (DatagramConnection) Connector.open( url );
    
                Datagram datagram = connection.newDatagram( bytes, bytes.length );
    
                connection.send( datagram );
            }
            catch (Throwable t) {
                log.error( "Unable to send SMS to " + entry.getRecipient() + " with the url " + entry.getHttpRequest().getUrl() + ".  Message: " + t.getMessage(), t );
                throw t;
            }

  • Cannot send SMS to users no iMessage!

    This is probably my fourth post on this same issue that nobody is to give me an answer, or telling me to try something that I said did not work.

    I have an iPhone 6s with MetroPCS, for someone who is not using iMessage, the 'Add photos' icon is grayed out and it won't let me even to send an attachment. Before the last update, I was able to select the "Add attachments" button, but it is still impossible to send to the other person. I can't receive messages from group to anyone, unless they are all using iMessage, also to receive photos of users who are also no iMessage. iMessage is turned on, and I tried it works and stop. SMS is selected. I tried to take the sim card out, turning the phone, return, and reinsert the sim card and which worked for only 5 minutes, before aging again on the attachment button Add. WiFi and cellular data are both on, the two won't let me send an attachment. I reset the network settings, I did a hard reset on my phone. I did a reset based on my phone, I know that's not a problem of the carrier because it allows to work, until after I did an update in November 2015. Since then, she has been less effective. Please someone help me.

    Hi keakuki,

    I understand that you have difficulties to send SMS and MMS messages or receive group messages since you last updated your iPhone.   Your profile says you are using iOS 9.3.  You have updated to the latest version, which is iOS 9.3.1?  Once you have done this, the next step would be to see if MetroPCS has updated their software. given that the SMS and MMS messages must go through their system.

    If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    Restart your device and check for updates

    1. Restart your device.
    2. Looking for a carrier settings update.
    3. Looking for an updated software iOS.
    1. Make sure that you are connected to the Internet through cellular data or Wi-Fi.
    2. Go to settings > Messages. Check that the type of message you are trying to send is lit (iMessage, SMS, MMS or e-mail group):

    If your messages are not sent or you do not receive the messages

    Check your details:

    1. Make sure you use the right phone number or email address of the contact.
    2. Go to settings > Messages > blocked and make sure that the contact is not on your list of blocking.

    If messages will not send to a certain person or you need assistance with group messages

    Sometimes it will not send your messages to a particular contact, or you might have problems with Group Messaging. For example, you could meet a group conversation and receive your own message. Or you could get a new phone number and see your old listed as a recipient in an existing group conversation.

    Delete the conversation * who has the problem and start a new conversation:

    1. Open your Messages and view your list of conversations.
    2. Straight shot left on the conversation you want to delete. Then, remove faucet.
    3. Open your Messages, type and enter the phone number or email address of your contact or contacts.
    4. Write a new message and press send.

    * When you delete a conversation, you will not be able to recover. If you want to save parts of conversations or their attachments, you can take screenshots. You can also tap a bubble attachment or message, and then tap more > save.

    Take care

  • Message cannot send sms to contacts

    Hello

    I had problems with iMessage for centuries, but this time he makes me crazy. I have a few contacts where I can not simply opt to send the message in the form of SMS, only iMessage. Received SMS messages are carefully updated in iMessage, I can make and receive phone calls, but simply cant't send as SMS. See the image below. Note fortunately to dial, but refuse to send messages in the form of SMS.

    I tried to delete the contact, contacts of disconnect to iCloud and back in (on the phone and iMac), disabled in iCloud, rebooted the iPhone, restarted iMac and which do not. Nothing helps.

    Someone has any idea how to do this job?

    Thanks in advance,

  • BlackBerry Smartphones cannot SEND the SMS messages on 8130

    Here is my story:

    1. I've upgraded to a Blackberry Pearl 8130 pink in the beginning of the year.   My carrier is Verizon.

    2. recently (a month ago) a friend sent a text message to me of his new phone.  I tried to text back, but received a big big red X indicating that my message isn't getting through.  Specifically, when I opened my message, the error says, "State of the Mobile equipment has failed."

    3. I went to Verizon.  They did something where I think that they took me off the network and then get back on.  There is nothing.  She wanted to make a hard game on the phone, but I had not backed up my data again.

    4. I went home and my data backed up and returned to Verizone about a week later.  I spend more than an hour in the store.  The gentleman who helped me was on the phone with someone (no doubt technical support) nothing works.  He was ready to order me a phone replacement, but after further discussions with technical support, they thought there was a problem with the network, not my phone.  I went home with a case number.

    5. the next day same Verizon called.  They said it wasn't a network problem and it was my phone.  They would send me a replacement.

    6. I received my replacement phone a few days later.  I was anxious to get it set up, but the results were the same.  I have not yet returned to Verizon.  I thought I'd try everything here first see if anyone had any ideas.

    The bottom line:

    I CAN send/receive emails.

    CAN I send an MMS message.

    I CAN receive text Messages.

    I can't send SMS messages.

    Thanks for any advice you may have.

    -Sandra

    Tami,

    Thanks for the reply.  I happy to point out, however, that the problem has been resolved by Verizon!  It has never been my phone, that's why the replacement was a mute point.  Anyway, here is their answer (in case someone else has this problem):

    Sandra, we reviewed your account and coding in any of our servers.  We believe that we have found the problem and fixed it.  We ask that you update your PRL (preferred roaming list) by calling the * 228, option 2.  Once completed please test your ability to send text messages.

    I'm just glad that the problem has been resolved because my frustration was very high.

    Happy texting!

    Are these people that you send using iPhones or iPad?  iMessage is Apple free internet e-mail service and works in Apple devices, but not just iPhones. If someone has an iPad only and uses an iMessage account on the iPad, then they can't get SMS text (unless they pair the iPad with an iPhone).  iPads cannot natively receive or send SMS texts.

    All messages are a number in the United Kingdom. I tried to find out which application is causing the problem. To read other users ' questions, I guess that's iMessage.

    I use my phone for sms not talkative iMessage. All the app are disabled, iMessage and FaceTime. How do these apps still send sms? I never authorized iMessage or any application to send sms. Apple why phone texting without knowing me?

    How can I block apps to send sms? If anyone knows how, please let me know. It is ridiculous that I have to pay for something I don't use. If apple likes to make apps that sends messages, apple should foot the Bill for the users.

    If this issue cannot be resolved, then I need to consider using android.

    First, there is no Apple in this technical forum from user to user.

    Second we user do not care if you go to an Android phone, you are more than welcome.

    If you get an error when you try to activate FaceTime - Apple Support or iMessage

  • Sending SMS from the Defy: two questions

    I've been with the Defy for a few weeks and I love the phone, but with all the power of Android, I lack some features, that I used to have in my old classic 'Hynek '. Perhaps they are there and I just have not found, but believe me, I really look...

    Two of them are currently particularly annoying when sending SMS. Here in Brazil, the long distance dialing format includes a code of long distance provider of your choice (specifically, you must dial 0 + code of the carrier + area code + phone number). So, I added all the entries on my directory, including the carrier code which usually has the lowest rates. But this format does not work to send text messages. to do this, use + 55 (the Brazil country code) + area code + phone number. There are a couple of other formats that the carrier has properly analysis and sends the message (for example, to send messages to phones in the same area code, just without any codes work phone number), but the format used for long distance calls cannot be used.

    My old phone had a feature that allows you to modify the number before sending the message, and I used that. With the Defy, I'll have to look up the number in the phone book and type it in the appropriate format, rather than choose the contact directly here as a destination. Is there a way to change the number before sending on the Defy? I tried, but it only allows me to delete this contact or include another. I also thought to including an additional entry phone just for SMS for each contact in the phone book, but it would be too complicated.

    The second feature is the ability to set the phone to send a request for confirmation of delivery as well as the message. As soon as the message was delivered to the recipient's phone, I got a message of confirmation by the carrier. While most of the messages are provided instantly, some, especially to another carrier, or if the recipient's phone is turned off or out of coverage in time, may take longer and sometimes it is important to know if the other person actually received it. My Defy not to do and I couldn't find any configuration option to allow this. I'm on the same carrier as before, so the feature support is not a problem.

    So, anyone know of a way to change the phone number before sending an SMS and request a delivery confirmation message?

    Thank you very much.

    Thank you, j0h4n. In the end, I solved both problems by simply using a different application. What I've explored, there doesn't seem to be a way to change the phone number of the addressee on the fly with the standard application, and everything by asking a delivery report is possible, he is not required by default, may not be configured to be requested by default and must be done individually for each message sent.

    But I explored the Android Market, try Handcent SMS and SMS GO and found both to be excellent. Both allow changing the number on the fly and NDRs that would be asked by default (in addition to many other interesting features). Since they have interfered with each other, I had to choose an and kept GOING SMS, I found a bit niftier to use and implemented the number editing best feature (Handcent editor a bit confused with this and I had to be careful when editing).

    Obviously, English isn't a problem for me, if not Handcent would have the head, because it is available, located in Portuguese (and many other languages), while SMS GO is only available in English and Chinese. But as it is, I liked it. I would still recommend Handcent and users should try both to see which they like best.
