Question regarding modem

The modem of my phone seems to do everything as it should except for one thing: It does not send text messages (SMS) apart from two cases (out of maybe 50-100 so far). By contrast, receiving messages is not a problem at all.

With the help of friendly people in this forum I found out that it is in all likelihood
-neither a software (Mobian, Ubuntu Touch, Manjaro Plasma)
-nor a firmware issue.

Is there anybody here who knows enough about modems to tell me whether this could be a hardware problem? Or is that simply impossible given that everything works except for sending text messages?
You might try turning off IMS as some people have reported it being on resulted in sending SMS issues:

Note that if you use a configuration in /etc/eg25-manager/ you need to check that it matches a potentially newer version (after updates) as otherwise it can break things with eg25-manager (/usr/share/eg25-manager/ is where defaults are located).

What carrier are you with? It could be carrier specific: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_Carrier_Support
I suppose you have already tried forcing 3G?

Frustrating how it seems to work for some people, not for others, so most likely a carrier issue.
Pinephone v1.2 UBports CE. Adelaide, Australia using Amaysim SIM (Optus network, VoLTE enabled) with Mobian SD card. VoLTE working also with Felix / Vodafone AU and Aldimobile / Telstra AU.
Manjaro Plasma Mobile on EMMC.
