One sms has got stuck in outbox with deferred status because its battery died just while it was trying to send the sms.Later I tried deleting, moving to drafts & resending again but nothing happens. If I try to send it again it says sending failed and on deleting/moving to drafts it switches to deferred. Also tried resetting the phone but didnt help.What should I do?

SOURCE: messages say resend all the time in d outbox

This is not a question of your phone's external it says for internal or workable memory of RAM. RAM is for providing room to running application. In your phone RAM is seems stuck and you have to empty it by formatting. For that backup your data and reset your phone by entering code string *#7370# and it will work again properly.

Make sure you're using your mobile service provider's settings and msg center number, and that your setting for reply is set to: reply via same center number to; NO

SOURCE: Call fails. SMS failure to send. Status 254.

I had the same problem. All you need to do is reset the phone settings :) Then it's back to normal.
