pinephone texting ability goes in an out - jyoung - 08-05-2023

Hi,

My pinephone's ability to receive texts seems to go in an out on a timescale of months. This is actually the third post I've made about this issue. I got a lot of help in the first two threads, linked below, but we weren't actually able to solve the problem. In both cases the texting ability mysteriously returned. I'm fairly sure that I didn't do anything to help the matter, in either case:

I should also note that this is not an issue with the carrier, since I have two sim cards with different carriers, and the problem seems to affect them both. One idea that came up was a "clogged" modem, which an be purged. In the more recent thread, was ideas were suggested to purge the messages from the modem. However, the modem seemed to be empty

Code:
mmcli -m any --messaging-list-sms
No sms messages were found

However as of today this has changed, with no actions on my part:


Code:
mmcli -m any --messaging-list-sms
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/29 (received)


Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? My phone is working fine now, actually, but I'm afraid that it will go out again.
