"Cannot Send Message. Would you like to retry?" Error, Repeatedly

[Autumn McClintock]

So my boyfriend has had an LG Intuition for a little over a year, and recently he's be having some issues sending messages through Hangouts and Messaging. He will try to send a message and it wont send, then when he clicks on it to retry, he presses the button and the same dialogue box immediately pops up again asking if he'd like to retry sending the message.
Usually the problem is solved by restarting the phone, but he's done that twice already and the problem still isn't fixed. Has this happened to anybody on here? Is there any surefire way to solve the problem without sending it back to the factory?

I would like to know as well. My daughter has this phone. She didn't know any better and installed the new update, and now she cannot send or receive messages....nothing but a white screen.

Have either of you tried a different messaging app? That isn't really a fix for the problem, but it might allow you (or your friends/family) to text.
