Android 11: sending text messages no longer works, is Google Carrier Services fault?

Your text messages haven’t been sent for a few days and you haven’t received some? If you are a Bouygues Telecom customer, you could have blamed this problem on the recent national mobile network failure. Except that this has been resolved, and the concern affects all operators as well as other parts of the world, such as the United States and India. In reality, many Android users are affected. For over a week, they have been complaining en masse on the forums and on the Play Store.

Other messaging services are also having operational issues. For some, the culprit is plainly found: it would be Google Carrier Services, which recently underwent an update. The release on December 2 of version 50 of the app seems to correlate with early testimonials from unlucky users. Ultimate proof: they are several to report that the problem has been solved once it has been uninstalled.

OnePlus Users Particularly Affected

Google appears to have some issues with its messaging app, as it already had another bug that erased all text messages earlier this year. Strangely enough, it is OnePlus smartphone users who would be affected the most. “I use a OnePlus 8 with Airtel, here in India,” reads a dedicated forum. “My incoming messages are delayed for 10 to 15 minutes and I cannot send an SMS without a delay. I put my SIM card in my Huawei phone and had no problem.

Another user said that he could send and receive messages only in safe mode, which of course is only a fallback. Restarting your smartphone doesn’t seem to fix the bug either: “I’m currently having trouble texting with my OnePlus 8 Pro. Even when I restart it, the messages get stuck after only an hour ”. So let’s hope that Google quickly gets down to developing a corrective patch.
