Receiving Picture Messages Fail - Samsung Mesmerize

I just picked up the Mesmerize for US Cellular..
And sometimes when I receive a picture message, the picture shows up in the text bubble. But more often than not, it shows up as a "Download" button in the text bubble, but when I click the Download button, nothing happens. It says that it's downloading..but it never downloads.
What's the issue here?

I've heard others having the same problem found that if the pic comes with text that it comes through. I haven't run stock OS for a while and I've only had that problem with dependencies removed from the ROM.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

Well, it turns out that a battery pull solved my problem.
Figures that something that simple would cure it..

Text Message Threading Issue on new Rom

So I was able to update my rom to the new 5.11.502.2 rom for the HTC Fuze on At&t. I have been enjoying the update, and it seems like the reception is improved.
But I did run into a problem....iono if someone could verify if this is correct or not. So when ever i send a mass text, i would only get one thread for the message and not for each other person i sent the mass text to. With the original stock rom, whenever you send a mass text, a thread conversation starts for each person you sent the mass text to.
i think everything about the text messages in the update is buggy. when i get a text and then reply but still stay inside the thread, my text message icon in the status bar stays there and then when i get more than one text from the same person and then go back to the message list it says there there is still unread messages even though i already replied to them.
That's been an issue for forever.
Nah, this is different. In the stock ROM, it used to automatically show the message was read, just by opening it. Now I have to scroll up to the message to show I've read it.
Sure, it's not that much of a hassle by itself, but when you text as much as I do, pressing the up botton a few times and then bringing it back down, just so the notifications go away, becomes a daunting task.
It's almost depressing.
Not in this way though... it used to be that I could just open the message, and it would register that it was read. Now, I have to manually scroll up to show I've read it.
It's not a huge problem, unless you text as much as I do. It's a major nuisance. Is there a registry tweak we can change to mark it as read upon opening? NOT having to scroll to the message itself, in the thread?

[Q] SMS Issue Try Again

HTC-HD2​I live in Houston Texas. I have a incredibly annoying issue with my phone. I am not sure if it is a issue with the ROM's that I get and install or if there is something wrong with the service from T-Mobile in Houston.
I will type up a SMS message to send a friend. I press the send button and I get a pop-up message saying that Message not sent Try Again.
Either I have to click the red text 5-20 times if not more to try resending my text again or sometimes I do not get the convent resend option and I have to go back into the text and highlight what I wanted to send and click Menu and Forward it to the person several times till it finally goes through.
Wanted to see if anyone else anywhere has the same problem or if it is a known issue is there a FIX for it.
Thank you,
Ralph

[Q] New text messages dissappear. I am going crazy.

Ok, so I get a new text message.
I turn on the phone, notice in the lockscreen someone texted, and see an excerpt of the text. I say, ok, lets slide that messaging icon into the ring and read that message. Well, that message is not there. No message at all from that person. If its someone ive been talking to, it usually shows what i said last only, and their reply is no where to be found, although i just saw it in the lockscreen or the top bar.
I have also tried the handcent sms app to see if it could help me. same thing occurs there too.
ANY idea what could be causing this? It seems to be doing it all the time now. My only way around it is to use google voice only. ugh.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What's the limit you have set for deleting texts after a certain period? Might have something to do with that.
I have this bookmarked from the xda portal. It may be relevant

yeah, ive been using it, but its still a hassle. My txts were coming through just fine the day i got it, then it got wierd afer 48hrs of use.
Thanks for the help, Ill keep looking as well for an answer.
I am a very similar issue, at first I thought I was missing text messages as well.
I got a few keywords from my friend who sent the missing text and when I did a search, the text was there, but they had the wrong time stamp.
For instance missing text was sent at 17:44, when I search I found the text stamped and threaded in as if it was received at 12:40.
The wrong time is variable, I have found other texts that was stamped received the previous day.
Unfortunately I don't have a solution, and quite frankly am getting really frustrated with this problem.

[Q] Hangouts not always giving notification of recieved message

I have posted here but recieved no answer. I figured my question belongs here anyway, so I won't bump the other thread.
I am trying to use Hangouts as my default SMS app (It is also currently the only SMS app installed on my device) because I do like it. However I noticed that sometimes I don't get any notification when I recieve a text message, no vibration, nor sound nor notification in the status bar. As a result, I miss quite a lot of texts. Notice that I do recieve those texts, if I check the app they are there, text bold to indicate they are not yet read. I just don't get the notification. Also, most of the time I do get the notifications without a problem. So to be clear, this is about some SMS's, not about all.
As far as I know this happens when I recieve the message very shortly after I put down my phone (my routine: send text, press 'backbutton' once to get in the hangouts overview, and then I press power to shut of the screen and put the phone down.) If I get a message let's say within half a minute of me turning of the screen I won't have a clue I recieved the message until I go look in hangouts to check. This happens often when someone is quick to respond to my own message, but could maybe be happening with other messages I recieve in that time. I don't think this happens to messages I recieve when the screen has been off for a time, but I can't say that with certainty.
I have a HTC One S currently running CM11, but I had this problem on stock ROM too. However never with the HTC stock messaging app.
I have found similar problems here on the forums, but no satifying answers. I hope someone has a solution?

MMS glitch in stock Messages app

I've noticed when trying to send pictures on the stock Samsung messages app the thumb nail for selected pictures doesn't seem to go away after sending them. Does anybody else have this issue?
i have had a few texts and picture messages fail to receive and send. I am using the stock samsung message app. I had this same issue all the time on my m8 GPE with marshmallow using google messenger. I had to start using textra to fix the issue.
It's only happened a few times with the stock samsung message app. So I'm going to keep trying it, I like to have the message icon on my screen.
edit*
as to the thumb nail issue you are having. I'm not 100% clear on what you're describing.

Kinda difficult to explain exactly with words, but when you attach a picture a small window appears with a thumbnail of your selected picture. Once I click send it should disappear, but the thumbnail just stays. Example: i.imgur.com/l5vriJl.jpg
