SOLUTION: Can't Send SMS Text Messages

If you are unable to SEND an SMS Text Message and they get stuck in Unsent Messages:

Messages, Menu, Settings, Call Back Number. Your Call back number can NOT contain dashes or any other symbols. If you put in, for example 212-555-1212 it will break outgoing SMS Text Messaging. Remove the dashes to fix!

If that doesn't work, you can also just reset the SMS Settings: Open Messages app, click on Menu, select Settings, click on Menu again, and finally select "Restore Default Settings" This will restore the default SMS / MMS settings only.

Outgoing Text Solution for Droid Incredible

Wow...someone who knows what they're doing. I spent at least and hour on the phone last night with a Tier II Technician. My Incredible stopped sending text. The Tier I Tech had me remove the battery. The Tier II Tech had me reboot the phone twice and has set up an appointment for a call back tonight to walk me through a hard reset. I always get a little concerned when people start fishing for answers when they don't really have a viable solution.

This solution works folks. It took me 10 seconds to remove the dashes. I went to the undeliverable folder and selected resend messages. Everything disappeared.

Thank you for the solution.
