Lost capability to text: Contacts show sip:[phone number]@msg.pc.tmobile.com;user=phone
Hola,
I used to text this mobile phone for several months. I am using a Samsung Galaxy S21. However, today, the text fails to be sent. Then, I look at my contacts for the mobile phone number and it is changed to:
sip:[phone number]@msg.pc.tmobile.com;user=phone
I removed this and updated the contacts with the correct phone number, but the text does not go through and the contacts is changed back to sip:[phone number]@msg.pc.tmobile.com;user=phone
Any idea what is going on? I am able to text other people.
Gracias,
Paul

Same here. But Android phone. So annoying when T-Mobile has no idea how to fix it. I can text, but random numbers can't text me back. I was going to change phones, but seems like that won't work either reading these comments on this page. Glad I didn't. Yes, someone, "real Tech person", what's going on. We get the same….sip:+phonenumber@msg.pc.tmobile.com;user=phone
So much trouble shooting over six times with customer service/tech support. They changed phone twice, and change sim card. Nothing! So many hours and hours over the phone trying to solve. No luck. So annoying!!! Going crazy.

I have this issue as well. In case it helps, I've noticed something that might help T-mobile better understand the issue and might help us all find a workaround.
I've found 2 contacts so far that have this problem. Both of them are on my same family plan. Although others on my family plan still work as expected, so it's seemingly hit-or-miss as to whether this problem occurs.
For the two contacts that have the problem, If I create a new chat and type in their name, it doesn't work as others have mentioned. However, I am able to still text them if I do this:- Open the contact in my contacts app
- Click the message icon to message them
- This opens up the messaging app on the historic thread I’ve had with the (functioning) contact.
- Texting out from this works.
However, once i text out using this method. The texts *back* show up in the sip: named thread instead of my historic thread.
So, it’s not a great workaround, but if you really have to get a hold of someone, you can do it this way.
Tmobile… we'd very much like a fix for this. ¡Gracias!
BTW, I’m using a Samsung S22 phone, on Android version 13. - amycNewbie Caller
Yes. T-Mobile. I just hate when they tell me issue resolved. It's not resolved. But I can't stand staying on the phone day after day, hour after hour, doing same trouble shooting and explaining. And they think I'm happy with them. Just a hassle to change plan at present time. So dealing with it. Since its just me. Not husband or sons phone. So will deal with the inconvenience. Annoying!!! Should knock off $10 per month for me dealing with this. They give new customers new phones that cost thousands…..They owed me a screen protector, never arrived and $5 off trade in fee, said I didn't have to pay.

I had this problem with one contact. I deleted the contact. Added it back in. It fixed the problem. Now the name appears not that sip junk

I've tried this along with clearing the data and the cache in the app and nothing is working. This is only happening with one contact. Was fixed for a while but after the most recent update, it's happening again. Very frustrating!

If you clear the data, will all messages delete? I have messages from my father who passed away that I don't want to delete. Do before I push that I'm scared they will be deleted. ¡Gracias de antemano!
