Looks like there has been another foul up on JB 😞 Some people may be recieving the error above when trying to open messaging. I called o2 who said they have had multiple reports and the only known fix is to backup with kies and then restore.

However i found a short term solution.. Download Go SMSpro from play store.. install that and run..
Now guess what? try opening the stock messageing app.. it strangely works eh.. Somehow this app gives it a kick up the backside to start working again..Tip.. Go sms is alot better than the stock messaging app. :))) hope this helps guys!!

Must be something handset specific as mine works fine so it's not a JB issue......
It is device/firmware specific. I called o2 and before i mentioned my phone she said "is it the samsung galaxy S3? Have you recently done the jb update?" people have been calling up since yesterday about it she said. trying another factory reset now. Can't check the message centre number as the entire message app is shot

Guys, I've found an easy fix for this without needing a factory reset. Go into S-Voice and tell it to "Open Text Message Application". It opens it without any problems and after that it'll open normally. I worked for me so I hope it works for you too. Try it before trying anything else.
