So, ever since I updated my device to 4.4.2 my SMS has intermittently failed to send. It will work for a few hours at a time, but then go 20-30 minutes with continuous failed messages. Incoming SMS works perfectly fine.
So I cleared app cache and data, force closed, cleared phone cache, and finally did a factory reset, all of which made no difference (well, except the reset made it worse last night). I called Verizon and they basically said that there was nothing they could do as it was a device or hardware issue and are now sending me a "like new" replacement.
So, I purchased a BRAND NEW device just over a couple months ago and they are replacing the defective device with a USED device they claim is "like new". How nice of them to go out of their way to take care of their customers!
Oh well, they promise me that the new device will not have any SMS issues. My questions to my fellow GS4 users (particularly VZW ones) is whether or not you have had any issues with your SMS after the 4.4.2 update??
