Why I can't send sms using messanger to new contacts?

[AC Question]

I have some wired problem. Messanger works fine except situation when I want to send an SMS to contact which I never send anything earlier. Using other words: if my conversation with someone is empty I can't send SMS to that person. When I try to do that SMS disappears from the conversation after one second.

And everything works fine if someone sent me SMS first or when I send first SMS using default SMS application. So the problem is only to initiate the conversation and only SMS conversation (fb messages works fine).

Have you got any idea what can I do with that?

Try uninstalling Messenger, then go to the Play store and install it again. (You may want to use SMS Backup & Restore to back up your current messages first, just in case. Clear cache and clear data, then force stop, Messenger before uninstalling it, but after backing up [clearing data could clear all the SMS messages on the phone].)
