Help! Text messages not sending

Suddenly none of my text messages send. These aren't media messages(as I've seen some have problems with), just standard text. No matter who I send to it errors and says cannot send. I've tried powering off, and back on a few times now with no result. Anyone else having this problem, or have had it?

Please help!!
 
I am also having this issue, how did you fix it. PLEASE HELP

Update:

I think I figured out this issue, I had uploaded all my contacts from my blackberry storm 1 to my gmail account. But I had them formatted as
+1 (555) 555-5555 on google, I think this was the issue.

Solution:

First I exported all of my gmail contacts to a .cvs file
Erased all contacts from gmail
used excel and the =mid function to change the number to 5555555555 in the .csv file
Re uploaded the file to gmail.

Now I also did a factory reset again after deleting my contacts in gmail so that I would have a clean start. This was to make sure I did not have any linked phone contacts left. You could do this manually but my droid was so new that it did make a difference to me.


Seems to be working now...
