I am seeing an error 65536 on some text messages that I send...
What does this mean ?
Are they arriving ?

I'm sure you're able to use Google too.

Thanks - but if you read your link - there's no answer !!

The answer appears to be to do with the Google Messenger app. You don't say what app YOU are using. If you gave more detail when asking for help you might get more-focused responses.

This is using the stock txt app on an android 7 phone !
It seems to appear on long txt's say 200 characters +

Settings>Apps>All>Messaging>Clear cache & Clear data
Reboot phone




You may need to delete you text history first unfortunately

65536, believe it or not, sounds like a very generic catchall error code (it's an exact power of 2), so there's probably not much to catch that. Can you reset factory settings and see if it reoccurs?

No clear cache option on messagingl

Strange, do you have clear data option ?

Not as far as I can see
I do have a reset ALL app preferences option
But I don't want to do that !!

It might depend on exactly what phone you have - you may not have stock Android.

On my Huawei P9 Lite (running Huawei's Android 6) it is:

Settings | Apps | Messaging | Storage ... in here there are 2 options - Clear data and Clear cache.

But remember that you might not be using the stock Messaging app ... what's the name of the SMS app that you actually use?
