Help "Message Not Sent"

Is anyone having issues with texting on their galaxy? About half the texts I've sent in the past week have come back as "message failed" -- but they still receive the text. Obviously it's not a HUGE problem because the text apparently still goes through but it's very frustrating. Just wondering if it's possibly only my area, if they're doing some upgrading to towers or something. Never had that issue with my EVO V or Triumph. Also have only been using the stock messaging app. Lemme know if you have any solutions/run into a similar problem so I know it's not just me lol.
 
I had that happen one time with one message. Besides that time I've had no problem with messaging. I've stuck with the stock app because I thought it was as good as any 3rd party app I've used before. How is the signal strength when it happens?

I'm always on 3 bars or so. I don't know if that matters as much as the actual strength number, however (I don't really understand how it works, really). Tried it with ChompSMS and it happened with that too. I wonder if changing the PRL could work? I tried it but it seemed impossible to obtain my MSL. Oh well. Hopefully it just sorts itself out eventually.
