Sending SMS does not work, receiving is ok

[ralfberger]

Hi Tibor, thanks for your great programmes. Unfortunately I can't receive SMS anymore, sending works. With Google Messages everything works (sending and receiving SMS). I think the problem came with the update to MIUI V.13. I use a Xiaomi phone with Android 12 and MIUI 13.0.5. I always use the latest version of your app. Thanks and greetings

can you reproduce it reliably? You arent getting any messages from anyone at all?

[ralfberger]

it is very difficult to reproduce the problem reliably. I have used your app for many months without any problems. In April I got an update on my phone and from then on I could not not receive any SMS anymore. My provider could not find any error. I then switched to Google messenger. Since then everything works as it should. I will install your current version again and test it.

isnt it related to Google Messenger using internet to receive messages? Or maybe you enabled some RCS messaging? Look around those areas.

[ralfberger]

No, I only use text messaging What is RCS messaging ? I need to find out what RCS is first.

check https://www.androidpolice.com/how-to-rcs-chat-in-google-messages/ if you have it enabled

[ralfberger]

No I do not use RCS. I have just installed the latest version V 5.13.2. The first two test messages have arrived. Let's see how long it works. I will test it a few days.

I will release a new version in 2-3 days, maybe testing that will be worth it too

Hey @ralfberger

Similar problems here, here and here

It would be very helpful if you can answer these:

1. Did you enable the "Block messages from not stored contacts" option?
2. Maybe the missing SMS messages were from a blocked number?
