Texts Not Sending

[Fmskulj]

Hello, I have looked through other posts and contacted the moderator team but had no response yet. 

I am having problems sending my texts. Calls and data always work, but I frequently have full bars, but my texts don't go through. I have to go into airplane mode and then turn it off for it to work again. What do I do?

Thank you!

@Fmskulj Have you tried different texting app like Android Messages or Textra?

[Fmskulj]

Yes it shows proper connection.

The APN looks fine.  You mention having the toggle the airplane mode to get texting to work.  Does this apply to phone calls as well?  For SMS, all that is required is a network connection.  The APN settings is required for data and MMS.  Airplane mode resets the network connection and so that could possibly be the problem.  When SMS is not working, does the phone show a proper network connection?

This is the troubleshooting guide from Asus support.  You should go over each of the steps if you have not already done so.

@Fmskulj, your problem is likely a phone issue.  The community is better positioned to respond quickly with suggestions.  Can you provide some information on the phone model, operating system, and sms app.  We will try to help with suggestions.
