      Hello,

      I am having a problem with the lomiri messaging app (Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS / lomiri-messaging-app 2.0.1+0~20250905202428.1+ubports24.04.1~1.gbp83639a) on a fairphone 5. SMS work fine, but
      I tried sending a MMS with 4 pictures to a contact. The message did not go through (wheel icon spinning indefinitely). Now all subsequent SMS to the same contact also display the wheel icon spinning indefinitely (the pipepline in clogged). Other SMS to other contacts work fine.

      How can I reset the pipeline / cache or whatever data is stuck so that I can resume sending regular SMS to my contact ?
      Many thanks
      Lukas

          Some logs may help. You said that SMS to that contact worked before sending MMS ?
          Sounds weird. Last work around, is like @gpatel-fr said, removing the Thread or the individual message that can cause issue.

            Many thanks for the suggestions & help 🙂

            Actually, when I got the problem, at first I tried removing the whole conversation. Then, I tried sending another SMS to the same contact, which re-created a new conversation, but that SMS got stuck too (spinning wheel), which made me think there was some service lomiri-messaging relied on that was somehow stuck, maybe ofono (pure conjecture on my behalf).

            Following your sugestion (a few hours later), I tried to delete the blocked message, then again the whole conversation, and then sent another SMS to the same contact and this time, it worked. So AFAIK, problem solved, but I do not know why.

            I tried to look at the traces by doing a journalctl | grep lomiri-messaging > somefile.txt but I got 2MB worth of traces. I tried to grep -i 'error' or 'invalid' but I do not know exactly what to look for. Lines which appear suspicious to me (but may be completely unrelated) are:

            No sure this is much help. I will experiment again with MMS and post back on this thread if find something useful

              Are you on 24.04.2.x daily ? because 24.04.4 LTS doesn't exist on UT.
              Also which device ?

              Never heard of such issue. Or maybe with volTE or if you set on Android previously RCS message, the provider think you are still with this setting ?

                I installed the devices a week ago (a fairphone 5) from the linux ubports-installer_0.11.2_linux_x86_64.appimage. I picked the stable channel
                I have not installed anything manually since that (with an apt-get I mean)
                I just used the AppStore to install a few apps

                The contents of my /etc/lsb-release indicate:
                DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
                DISTRIB_RELEASE=24.04
                DISTRIB_CODENAME=noble
                DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS"

                In the settings UI, it says
                Update channel:
                24-04-1.x/arm64/android9plus/stable
                Os version:
                24-04-1.3
