com.android.mms stopped working

[QQQQ]

Guys,

Whenever I send a SMS I get that com.android.mms has stopped working error message. The SMS goes out fine but that annoys me as it happens every time.

Please help.

Thanks.

Your going to want to go ahead and make sure that you don't have a massive amount of text messages in your inbox. That also includes MMS messages. If you go ahead and delete those messages and you get a "Force Close" error, select "Wait" and let your phone do it's thing. If that doesn't work you might not have enough space on your phone and it's bogging down. Try and delete an unnecessary app or two, restart your phone, and see if that helps. Good luck.

Hi!

I had the same problem! I tried all the suggestions, including deleting all my drafts andmessages. But the only one that worked was to reset my phone.
I have Verizon and an HTC Droid Incredible 2.

This is what I did:

- I exported all my contacts to my SD card (Google, Sim, and Phone contacts just to be safe)
- Refreshed/Synced my Verizon Backup assistant app.
- Wrote down my favorite apps (so I would be able to reload them after)
- Did a factory reset (goto Settings, SD&Phone Storage, and choose Factory Reset) Warning: Do not check the "Erase SD Card" box!

It will walk you through setting your gmail back up and sync your contacts. Download the facebook app, sign in, and it will prompt you to re-sync/link your contacts with facebook also.

All in all it took about 10 minutes to get everything back like I wanted it, but it was worth it and I have no problems with my mms or sending picutures anymore. Nothing on my SD card (picutures, music, apps, contacts, etc) was lost.

I think it cost me more time in researching how to fix this problem then to bite the bullet and actually do it. Plus and added bonus was getting rid of all the dumb apps I downloaded over the past year and just reloaded the ones I use the most.

Good Luck
