Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ushahidi/SMSSync/issues/44

Setup SMSSync to work with http://xxxx.ushahidi.com/smssync using "abcd" as the secret.
I sent a test message and SMSSync forwarded it correctly with no problems.
I then disabled WiFi and GSM data on my phone and sent it another SMS.
They never showed up in the pending list.
When I turned WiFi and GSM data back on and pressed the sync button on the pending page the message was never forwarded to my Ushahidi site. I was suspicious that the problem was that the internet was turned off on my phone as opposed to internet being turned on, but the connection being problematic, so I ran the following tests.
I disabled the SMSSync plugin at xxx.ushahidi.com.
I sent another test message
This message did show up in the pending list on SMSSync.
I then re-activated the SMSSync plugin on http://xxxx.ushahidi.com and pressed the sync button on the pending page and it said the message was successfully sent. However the message never appeared on liberiademo.ushahidi.com.
I repeated 6-9 to make sure this wasn't a one-off error and the same thing happened.
I enabled the SMSSync plugin and sent a message when everything was turned on and working properly and the message was forwarded as expected.

Hi eyedol. We have also noticed similar behavior. Hope this would be fixed pretty soon. We are facing major reliability issues due to this.
