We frequently can't send text messages
I have multiple phones on my account, and all of them frequently can't send text messages. Failures are most common when sending between these phones. Sometime one message will be stuck "Sending"...
I appreciate you being so thorough with your response. With intermittent issues like this, we'll need to collect examples of the messages failing and have our Team of Experts or T-Force folks file a Trouble Ticket. That'll give our engineers a bit more to work with when they work on getting this resolved.
It's still 'busted'. We have two Samsung's that can't text a T-Mobile Revvl V+ and a Revvl than can't text a Samsung. I've heard from other they see the same issue.
A temporary workaround that *MIGHT* work is call the person you are texting and have them text you first. You miight get the text as a sip:+1xxxxxxxxxx@msg.pc.t-mobile.com;user=phone… this is the device to reply to. T-mobile called me back that engineering says "THIS IS FINE". [And not able to text is 'fine', calls dropping 'fine', very poor call quality 'fine', oh and 43-98.7% packet loss on a tower that is less than a mile away line of site 'fine, no problems'. Right.
