Gmail Labs SMS broken? Atriarc 6/21/12 5:32 AM About 3 or 4 days ago the SMS Lab for Gmail Chat stopped working completely.  Every time I've attempted to send a SMS I get the following message returned, " Your message was not delivered. XXXXXXXXXX cannot be verified at this time as a valid mobile
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? wár17 § 6/21/12 10:06 AM Which browser are you using?  As a test, log into Gmail via another browser and try SMS there. If it works in another browser, something in the original browser is interfering with SMS chat.

Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? Atriarc 6/22/12 7:25 PM I've tried on Windows 7 with Firefox and Chrome with the same results.  I even booted into Ubuntu 12.4 and tried on Firefox in there with the same results.  So my beliefs are it is not client side.

Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? soupstation 7/11/12 1:45 PM Katherine, I have been using Gmail SMS without a problem for a long time with Chrome but a few weeks ago it stopped working completely.  I cannot even see the option to send SMS to the people I have been communicating with in the past.  I have also t
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? KatherineG 7/11/12 2:59 PM @soupstation, Have you lost the option for all Contacts? I'd love for you to check to make sure that you are stilled opted into sending SMS in Labs in your Gmail settings.  Let us know! Katherine
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? soupstation 7/11/12 3:28 PM I just checked the Labs settings and all is working wonderfully again.  Thank you so much for your help.  This is an excellent feature on Gmail.  I'll never go anywhere else for email again!
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? Pressurehead 7/15/12 12:02 PM I turned off the labs option and turned it back on, and it still didn't resolve. I send a google chat message via sms and the text used to show up for what I sent doesn't show up, I never get a reply, and my credits get dinged anyway. Plus they used
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? KeithR 7/15/12 6:42 PM @Pressurehead, have you checked with your recipient as to whether they receive your messages?  Are you certain that they have not decided to ignore you?Where are you expecting the sent text to appear?  In the open chat box or in your chats history?
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? Pressurehead 7/15/12 7:06 PM In the chat window. I am 100% nobody got my sms.
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? Twi 7/26/12 3:46 AM I'm getting similar errors as well... only mine is just saying "___ did not receive your SMS." This happened after a few months of texting using a different google account, then I switched to this one for a few months, but am now getting the errors a
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? KeithR 7/26/12 3:58 AM One condition for all Labs features is that they might break at any time - they are experimental.  However, I'll raise this with the team.
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? Cap'n C-Sick 8/1/12 2:15 PM I just noticed SMS is no longer showing up as a communication option in Google Talk on my Windows 7 Professional PC. I double checked the Labs SMS Chat option. I even disabled and enabled the option to see if that resolves/restores SMS in chat/talk.
Re: Gmail Labs SMS broken? KeithR 8/1/12 2:31 PM Hi Cap'n, are you actually using the Google Talk client or chat from Gmail?  The latter still has the SMS option, but it might have moved - it's in the list from the More button.  I don't think the Google Talk program has ever done SMS.
