Hi there! Are you able to receive text messages?

You can try turning on airplane mode then turn your phone off, turn your phone back on and then turn airplane mode back off.

Another option would be to enter recovery mode, and do a wipe of the cache partition.

Let us know if this helps!
 
I can't send text messages either.

I saw someone suggest trying the airplane mode on and off but I have to do it when I send every text message to get it to send. Other wise it says it failed to send. BTW, I can receive them just fine.

I also saw while searching about looking for the message center phone number but when I went to where it should be the "message center" option isn't even listed.

It just started happening the last month or so. Prior to that I could send w/o trouble.
 
Hi, I have the same problem and spent hours looking for & trying fixes. Its not a network problem Can send vis FB Messenger. Have cleared cache, disables/enables app, removed battery. Has happened before intermittently. Any other ideas? Thanks!
 
Hi All

Make sure Push notifications is active on your standard messaging app attached is an image of the settings options. You can find it opening the messaging app, then selecting more settings and selecting the last option named "more settings". Also make sure notifications is turned on.
