Text Messaging Bugs - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I can't send/receive text messages via the stock client or 3rd party (Handcent). I get no error, but the people I send it to never receive it nor do I get theirs...
Any ideas?

Anyone have this issue as well?

its a known bug, you have to go to the messaging app to see the texts, it wont notify you, a incoming software update, probably within a month, will fix it,
its on android central last night

That is not the same problem that is described in the OP.
No i don't have the same problem. It sounds like you need to call AT&T Tech Support about that.

The same thing happened to me. Call AT&T support. The person who did your upgrade did not put a text plan on your account.

obv not if i didnt answer the question..... derp

Ok, this is not a bug. This was a case of my ATT rep wrecking my new line addition. I was adding a line, so they converted it to a family plan while keeping my individual account active and somehow deleting messaging for my new line (OneXL). Frown.
Mods, you can delete if you are inclined to do so.
Thanks everyone!

[Q] Not Receiving SMS messages through Hangouts

Is anyone else having this problem?
I'm only getting very few messages through when people have told me they've text me, I have a few theories as to why this would be happening, but hoping someone has a solution:
As I've come from an iPhone, their phone is still trying to send as an iMessage
Google hangouts doesn't work properly yet
I've just ported over from O2 to Vodafone (serious mistake) which is causing the problem
If it's the latter I'll have to take the problem up with Vodafone, but just wondered if anyone else was getting a similar issue with Hangouts and normal messaging?
Cheers,
Joel
i can assure you it's 99% most likely that it's an imessage issue. i've gone through the hassle of trying to force a sign off of the imessage service and it's a major pita.
you need to get a hold of an iphone, and turn off the imessage service, it should start defaulting to sms on other people's iphones in a few hours/days, but it will immediately start giving your iphone using friends an error that the imessage can not be sent, they can then tell it to send as an sms, or if they have the option to revert to sms when imessage doesn't work it will do it automatically for them.
imessage is such a horrible system, and not being able to manually log out of it is very very annoying

I'm on KK 4.2 and Hangouts continually doesn't save text messages sent to me. An app called Ghostly SMS and Mighty Text will show me a couple messages every so often that never show up in Hangouts. I noticed Hangouts also has an "Import SMS" option in settings but it doesn't resolve the problem. Have you found a fix for this?

I"m having an issue also. i've never had an iphone so i know thats not the problem..
I started noticing that when I send out group messages to my friends.. i get maybe 60 to 70 % of the responses.. I only know because my wife shows me the messages she received and i'm missing several almost consitantly.. it makes me wonder if i'm missing texts that are sent straight to me.
I thought originally it could have been hangouts.. so i switched to 8SMS.. still continued.. now i'm using the Stock AOSP messaging app and still missing texts..
As far as I know i'm not having issues with calls or missing calls..
i'm praying its just a matter of getting this mysterious 4.4.3 update...

Get Ghostly SMS from the Play Store. It captures all of your sms messages so even if Hangouts or any other app misses a message you'll see the notification from Ghostly. I turn off the sound notification in Ghostly, by the way, so my Nexus 5 doesn't get annoying with beeps. The "Move to Inbox" feature doesn't work on KitKat though

My wife had this problem on her N5. Solved it by going to Hangouts>Settings>SMS>"Account to show SMS in". Change it to SMS only account. Click back confirm the missing SMS messages appear. Then go back into Hangouts>Settings>SMS>"Account to show SMS in". Change it back to your gmail account to re-merge the SMS texts with your Hangouts messages.

Hangouts sending double texts/sms

Hi everyone,
Had my nexus 5 for about a week now. Love it! But I've had a few comments from three people now, all on different networks saying that they are receiving my texts twice. However, Its not showing up twice in hangouts, nor do I have any other SMS apps installed.
Anyone else experienced this issue?
Cheers!

Yeah, I'm having the same problem. I've been told that it's not every text and I don't see the duplicates on my phone but I've been told by multiple different people. I've started using Go SMS and so far it doesn't seem to send duplicates, but I wish I could just use Hangouts.
Exact same problem with me. Its intermittent but generally happens more often than not. I don't see the duplicates on my phone either. I've not tried go SMS but like you, I just want to use hangouts rather than a third party app.
Hope there's a fix soon!

Hi,
I have same problem with my N5. I use only Hangouts to send SMS. No idea for this problem???
Thx for help.
I havent been told that mine is doing so - can it possibly be a network issue? i'm on T-mo. how about ya'll?
I'm not sure if its a hangouts issue. I installed the jellybean sms app and I've gotten duplicate texts as well from certain people. I actually got 8 of the same throughout the night last night. Maybe carrier related? I'm on sprint
I'm on EE.
I've read that people have had issues with receiving double messages from others. I've also read about people seeing duplicate messages (that they have sent) in their sms app (even though the recipients haven't received duplicates).
This issue is different in that the recipients receive double texts, but I only send one/see one in my phone. It could be a carrier issue, but it seems to be specific to this phone as my nexus 4 didn't do it.

I have Nexus 4 with Kitkat and the same issue, I used Hangouts in 4.3 and was the same. I think it's related to Hangouts app.
delivery
Doesn't really have to do with receiving double sms but I have a question and wondering if it's just me. So I check the delivery reports for every sms but I don't get any notification and Idk what's going on :/
I am on Sprint. Nexus comes in Monday but myself and a few others have been receiving duplicate texts from others not people saying they are getting them from me. I am using hangouts only as well.

Same issue. I get several of the same SMS message from certain people. Other times, I just don't get messages at all. I'm on Sprint also. Anyone else notice anything to resolve this?
Did anyone ever figure this out? I just found out my Nexus 5 is sending duplicate SMS, using Hangouts, just wondering if it's still happening to many others?

Thanks, good to know :good:
Just my opinion...
For me, it's the Sprint / Google Voice Integration I believe. You have us people who use Sprint and did the Google Voice Integration and now Google wants Voice users to move to Hangouts. It seems like Hangouts somehow doesn't realize the Google Voice and Carrier Numbers are the Same and sends texts twice.
I haven't tried but I think going to Google Voice's Setting (via website) and disabling Carrier Integration may help solve the problem.

Hangouts does not support Short Codes

I was stunned to discover this morning that the DEFAULT messaging app cannot send SMS to Short Codes. I'd have to say I'm more than a little shocked that our texting app is missing core functionality.
I've already submitted a topic on Google's Product forum.
I just realized this myself and probably looked ridiculous standing in front of a short code and not being able to figure it out...

are you sure it's hangout's problem? what's your carrier?
I can send short code without problem.
Well i feel dumb... you just need to scroll past all the G+ bs and contacts to get to the send sms option... it shouldnt be all the way at the bottom but whatever...
I have no problems sending to and receiving from short codes using Hangouts. Don't know why anyone else would have this problem. The first time I received one, it prompted to possibly incur charged from my Service Provider, but past that it acts just fine.

On T-Mobile I got that same popup, and it says that the messages have been sent, but I do not receive any response back from the short code. Like the local radio station here is 48258. Usually you get a auto response saying thank you for txting blah blah blah. With hangouts I do not get that response.

Not sure, i have been much to lazy to download a 3rd party sms app to test it to see if its actually hangouts or carrier having issues. Might give it a try tonight and report back.
I always stored those few short codes like #225# or #932# in the Phonebook & dial from there. It's a Pop-up showing the info onscreen but not saved to as incoming SMS, unlike traditional non-smart phone like the old LG or Sony. Hangout is on the MMS path and that should explain the reasons for not being able to use it.
I just did a test from couple different SMS apps and none of them get a reply from 5 digit numbers. Also my google voice number is not getting a response, so I have no idea if it is working or not.

[Q] Tmobile Group Chat missing messages?

Hey all. I know similar questions have been asked, but I've yet to figure out a solution to it. I just ported my number from verizon for this phone. As we know, the Tmobile version's stock messaging app doesn't support group chat, so I chose to use Google Messenger. I've been missing messages in group chat since day one. I will get about 60%, sometimes as low as 20%, or the messages. The rest will just never come in. The issue also occures in standard picture messages and texts, but are much less frequent. This is incredibly infuriating, as the tech support has no idea what the solution is, and sony thinks it's tmobile's issue.
Things I have tried:
1. Set the APNs to be ipv4/6.
2. Use Textra with tmobile fixes.
3. Turn off wifi calling.
4. Turn off wifi.
5. Change sim cards.
6. Disable stock messaging app.
7. Disable voLTE.
I'm at my witt's end with it, and no tech support will give me an acceptable solution. Has anyone had this issue, and maybe know a way to fix it? I'd appreciate any input you can provide.
Thanks!
Edit: also, I did not come from an iPhone prior to switching. The issue doesn't seem to be limited to iPhones, but they're the only ones I tend to group chat. And finally, the phones are on Verizon and at&t.
I'm having the exact same issue. It's frustrating and I will be returning the phone soon.
Sent from my D6616 using Tapatalk
I'm getting mine, they come in as not downloaded, soon as I hit download I get them all after that
I think I might have fixed it, but I don't know what caused it to begin with. After doing a factory reset on the phone, all of the group chat seems to come in and in the right order. I don't know if what application was causing the conflict, if there was any. But it seems to be working for now...
For those having the issue, maybe try that. Also, change the APN type to ipv4/6. I'll report back if there's any change or if I figure out the conflict.
I too did a factory reset but the stock messaging app does not support group texts correctly. Either on cell or WiFi calling. It slowly reverts back to missing texts with continues usage until you factory reset again.

T-Mobile Missing some group chat sms texts
I'm having the same problem with my T-Mobile Z3. I think the problem is with T-Mobile, not the phone but I haven't been able to figure out what is causing it. I thought it was poor reception or Wifi Calling, but even with WIfi Calling off and Personal Cell Spot boosters, I still miss some. Otherwise, I love the phone.
As other users have said, this wasn't a permanent fix. My phone stopped rceiving group chat properly overnight, so now i'm back to square one. This is infuriating.
welcome to the jungle man. more and more i believe the problem is due to the phone and how it fetches mms. maybe it has to do with power management. because why would we get them all correctly after factory reset and slowly it starts dropping mms again. so strange.

have you had mms issues with other phones on tmobile? i briefly had a m8 but had faulty bluetooth so i had to return it. didnt have time to really see if it had mms issues too.
Is it possible that with Stamina mode enabled the mms notification is expiring before the message content is downloaded? Might try adding the messaging app to the Stamina exclusion app list to see if that helps.

but i dont have stamina mode on. is it on by default? it says off on power management. i even disabled "queue background data"
still missing mms.
since family is in town for thanksgiving i have family members with different iphones and android phones with carriers on sprint, sprint/republic wireless, and verizon.
ran a few tests.. i could steadily reproduce missing group mms from sister with iphone 5 on verizon when everybody else got them. i disabled imessage on her phone and then her mms came through. reenabled imessage on her phone and mms still came through. no idea if this was coincidence or i actually did something important. i think i'm sending the phone back for nexus 6. if it has trouble then i have to jump ship from tmo.

Stamina is off by default, so that's probably not the issue.
Maybe check your detailed usage by date and sender on TMO website to see if they show receipt of the missed messages, that would give an indication if it's a TMO issue or something with the phone.
Make sure your APN is set correctly. Mine was not set out of the box. Google it or search T-Mobile support page for correct settings. After I set APN it works flawlessly. Even group messaging.
I'm having the same problem and it's aggrivating not knowing if you missed messages.
It's not just group messages but regular messages.
Regulator (and others),
To answer your question, I'm a new tmobile customer. So, I haven't had this issue om Verizon. That said, I checked the messaging logs on my account, and it seems to actually be missing on their end. These groupchats I am missing aren't even being reported on their end. I'm planning on calling their service again to give them the details. I wish there was something else I could update with. This can't be a software issue at that point, right?
I have the same exact issue, word for word sadly, yesterday was the worst, people kept telling me that they couldn't get a hold of me, i restart my phone and BAM 20 texts blitz my phone from 2 days before -.-
TLDR
After turning off VoLTE (Settings > call settings > un-check Enable VoLTE) i seem to have no texts struggling to send still need to test group chats
Just thought I would update everyone who might be curious. After puttig in 2 more trouvle tickets with he tmobile engineers and finally giving up on going through tech support, I went to the tmobile store in person. I asked to transfer my number to a temp phone there to determine whether or not it's a handset or backend issue. Group chats came in perfectly on the LG G2. With that knowledge, I requested a second replacement phone. In case you didn't know (as no rep told me) we have a 1 year warrenty through tmobile by default ON TOP of the 2 year sony warrenty. This one was refurbished, but the texting issues are not there. I would recommend everyone do the same, if they are able. Right now, tmobile isn't recognizing it as a handset issue, or an issue at all, which is very strange. Hope this helps you guys.
Tl;dr get a replacement handset.
FWIW - i came upon this thread googling the same issue, but i have a nexus 5 on tmobile. i think it is the service, not the phone. getting ready to call t-mobile now...
Switched to Tmobile from Sprint 2 weeks ago. I am having the exact same problem with MMS/Group texting on my new stock Z3. I have confirmed that I am definitely not receiving all group messages. Turning off WiFi calling didn't help, turning off Volte didn't help, Stamina mode has never been on. I've tried using Textra and Google Messenger and Hangouts. I would say I get about 50% of the group messages sent to me. When I do get one it shows up in the threaded group message ok but I'll also have a notification from the individual (one-on-one) thread with the person that just sent the message and it shows as download failed.

I've been having the same issues that you (and others) have described. That is, missing group messages, some sms messages delayed significantly (sometimes a day or more) before I receive them, cannot download mms messages, etc. I am also a former Verizon customer, but have never had an iPhone.
Before I trade in my Z3 for a refurbished model, has the new phone permanently fixed all your messaging issues? If so, which messaging app are you using now? Hangouts? Textra?
Thanks so much. This is an incredibly frustrating issue. Such a fundamental phone function.
I'm waiting for 5.0 to come out. People are speculating that the messaging in lollipop will fix this issue.

No SMS/MMS on Verizon

*SOLVED* (See my post #11)
Hello all,
I'm having trouble getting any text on my U12+. I've seen one other case on androidCentral forums but not much of any results. Figure i would chime in and see if anyone else figured this out.
I had this issue as well. I had to go to a Verizon store and get a new sim card, which he activated in my old HTC 10 then put into the U12+. After that the tech suspended my sms service then reactivated and I was good to go. The only issue I have is that I can not receive MMS messages from any 3rd party app, so I am stuck using the stock one.
Call Verizon -- spent 3 minutes with a level 1 technician who re-provisioned the phone for sms & mms. All is working as expected (although the stock messaging system wouldn't send GIFs, but I downloaded Textra and it works fine).

Soooooooo, it turns out there's an MMS bug with Textra which hasn't been fixed yet. I tried all the suggested steps (clean install, change MMS behavior, modify APN settings, etc) and MMS doesn't work with Textra. I emailed the developers and we'll see what happens.
I then downloaded Pulse and everything works as expected with that app. Not sure about any other third party messaging apps right now.

I emailed textra support over the weekend and after running through all the settings, they had me install android messages and that did not work with MMS as well. I tried with a few other 3rd party apps and they came to the conclusion that it is an android Oreo bug and they can't do anything to fix it.
Thanks everyone! I will try the steps mentioned above and report back.
Interestingly enough mms receive works for me on Verizon messages and the default htc text app. It does not work (just receiving pics) in Textra or Android messages. This feels like an OS side issue? I was on the phone with tier 2 support when I first got it and they reprovisioned twice. Then said just use the apps that work lol

Hey Guys I have something similar I have a ticket opened with tier 2 but my problem is that I can't get incoming text messages. I can send from the stock app but just no incoming... I factory reset twice, reset network settings twice but still same problem. Also tried the android messages app and Verizon app.

That's what my issue is. Can send but not receive. Haven't called yet. I'm going to in just a bit. Will report back.
Just got off the phone with Level 2 support. He tried reprogramming the sim card but that didn't work.
BUT he dug deep and did what he called a "CDMA list feature activation"
and then my text and mms started coming through in android messages. also voicemail. apparently that was also affected.
Hope that helps everybody. call support and let them know about this. skip the guess work.

Have you tried using a 3rd part app for texting like Textra to see if it works? I can only use the default stock app but called to see if this would fix anything on my end. Level 2 support told me that the CDMA list feature was already activated and they could not remove it from my account as it was active.

Have you tried using a 3rd part app for texting like Textra to see if it works? I can only use the default stock app but called to see if this would fix anything on my end.

All I use is Android messager and occasionally switch to the stock messenger to send higher quality picture messages. So far everything I've done on Android messager is working.

Guess I'm stuck with stock, I sent myself a picture with android messenger that timed out and said "Message expired or not available". Very annoying whatever is going on.

Textra developer suggested turning off MMS Auto Retrieve in stock messaging app, rebooting, and trying to do MMS with Textra again. It didn't work for me, but can't hurt you to try it with android messenger. Even with Textra MMS timeout issues, Pulse is working perfectly for me. Maybe give that app a shot? YMMV ... just throwing out some ideas for you.

Just tried it, no go as well. Funny thing is, i froze the stock messages with titanium as well, but it thawed itself on reboot. I'll give Pulse a try, does it compress images sent?

Not 100% sure about compression, but there didn't seem to be any loss in quality when I texted pictures or animated GIFs to myself

Pulse works great, wonder why other apps are having issues. Thanks for the recommendation!
