Write a small text only message or select a file

So this is happening with both SMS and MMS. Have you noticed any toast messages such as 'Error code: 5' (could be any number)?

Please check if sending messages works using the stock messaging app that came preinstalled with LineageOS.

Also, have you disabled or removed any system apps or services?

[romain-pastorelli]

Yeah, it's happening with any type of message (well I didn't try every file type, but images bring this error).

I get the 'Error code : 3 (Message could not be sent, etc...)' something like that, I guess.
The strange thing is that sometimes, sending message to a number N1 works perfectly, but in the same time, sending to another number N2 bring this error. And I didn't find any pattern explaining why N1 works this time and not N2, when sometimes it's reverse (N1 doesn't work and N2 may work)...

Yes, I disabled LineageOS's stock apps

@romain-pastorelli Please enable the stock messaging app, and test if sending messages works in it. We want to make sure if it's fault on our side, or you've disabled too many services.

[romain-pastorelli]

I enabled the stock app, tried to send a message to the same number which caused the error the last time and it worked perfectly. I also figured out that this number didn't even reveive my last message (sent from your app, not the stock app), even though it was marked as sent (in both apps)

I'm on Android 11 OnePlus Oxygen OS experiencing the same. What system modules the SMS app needs to send and receive messages? I want to check them.

is this what you're asking for?

[naveensingh]

The android-smsmms library is no longer used for SMS messages, it's only used for MMS.

@DB9-max https://github.com/FossifyOrg/android-smsmms is this what you're asking for?

I don't remember seeing that. It's some other system related app (built in). I'm on Android 11. But currently it i don't have issues, just need to leave excess unistalling of "bloatware" alone.
