Hangouts MMS? - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Anyone using Hangouts and having issues sending MMS? Or using group messaging? My messages keep getting hung up, and will try to resend, and resend, and at time error out.
Anyone using our successfully?

YES. Same issue!
I ended up just deleting the picture while it was in progress but only to find that it showed back up as sent over an hour later.
Strange, but what's the deal?

The whole phone is becoming a deal breaker for me.
Going back tomorrow.

Unlimited data and bought for the retail price? I did and I'm thinking the same thing.

Same here
I read that going into settings and resetting the APN back to default should fix this. This option is listed in settings. Click the "mobile data" tile and then "CDMA options" and then "access point names". Touch the three dots and the option to "reset to default" will be listed. Then reboot and see if this fixes it. I have not had that "touch to download mms message" error since I did that.

It's actually more of an issue with sending the MMS. It just stays in the sending state.

Thanks for that tip...I did that and my MMS via Hangouts is working now!

Anybody else have suggestions for resolving this problem? It just started popping up for me last night and has continued all day today. No problem sending individual messages, only problems sending picture messages and group messages. I tried resetting the APN trick and it did not do anything for me :/

Only issue I'm having is I can't send attatchments like pictures

Same. I had this problem on my note 2 so I don't suspect it is the phone.

Yep, had this on my old GS3, and now the M8... It appears to be following me. I have switched to the native messaging app for the time being, however I already miss Hangouts...

Should vzwinternet be checked? It unchecks it when I reset APN.

[Q] SMS shows received time not sent time

Hi,
I have a question.. is it possible to change the settings so that text messages that we get show the time as the sent time instead of received time.
I did a search for this on the forums (and google) and i believe someone worked on it for the galaxy s I9000. Is there anything we can do for the Nexus S. I also saw that there is an app called SMS Timestamper fix which adds the correct times to the texts, but i just wanted to know if its possible to fix it in the phone settings itself?
Thanks,
the SMS time fix is only to show received time, not sent time
the sent time should be recorded properly as it uses the time you sent out on your phone

In my messaging app, I can't see "Use original timestamps"...I am using the default messaging app. Any ideas?

Im not sure if you are thinking the same as me. I dont have any issue with the time being an hour behind the correct time (which is what i understand the time fix is for, but correct me if i am wrong).
The situation I have at the moment is, say i am in an area without reception and people send me smss. I do not receive them, but as soon as i go into an area with reception, all the sms's arrive on my phone. However, the time associated with the sms's is that of when they arrive on my phone (ie when i have just moved back into an area with reception), and not the time they were sent (which would be much more useful).
Hope that makes sense, and sorry if you did understand my problem already.
I have searched in the default messaging app, but i cant find the settings Use original timestamps. Maybe I am missing something.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
I just checked and use original timestamp is there indeed. Check it again man.

very odd indeed... i checked again, i went to messaging app (the default one with the green bubble icon with smiley face), settings, and definitely not there for me. I see settings for delivery reports, but not a "use original timestamp".
I am running the deodexed stock rom with voodoo kernel, posted by master, perhaps this is causing the issue? (i actually believe i have never seen this setting on my phone even when i was running 100% stock with normal kernel).
Is there anyway i can reinstall the default messaging app?

The ongoing notification requires root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770622
Or you can root to the Synergy Rom.

The notification deletion is imbedded in the Rom. After flashing it, reboot once and it's gone for good

Actually, I think just about all of the stock ROMs incorporate that now.

If you're on Verizon, it's impossible to miss. It's in your notification bar when you drag it down each time and reads "Wi-Fi off: turn on Wi-Fi"

Oddly enough, some report that they have neither the ongoing notification nor the annoying pop-up when wifi is off on a fully stock device. The vast majority have it but I've seen a couple saying they don't have either.

PROBLEM SOLVED!! (kinda.)
you can pull down the notification bar and long-press the "Tap to turn wifi on" ongoing notification and then click app info. from this point, the process will come up titled 'Android System'. (this is not what runs your phone, its just titled this) if you force stop this process, the notification will go away until the next time you boot up your phone! -i know its not permanent but it sure beats the hell out of it always being up there!!
THE MAIN BENEFIT OF THIS FOR ME (AND FOR ANY OTHERS WITH 4.1) WHEN YOU GET A MESSAGE OR EMAIL, IF ITS THE TOP NOTIFICATION IN THE LIST, IT SHOWS ADDITIONAL DETAILS. CHECK IT OUT IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

*2 disabled

***SOLVED***
when i dial *2 i get a message saying "unable to open app" com.android.phone is disabled. I have gone to check if the app is disabled, and it isnt. When the message appears, it gives me "ok" and "app info", the app info dims the screen and nothing happens. Not that i call sprint often, but id like that functionality back on my phone. Im VERY rooted and am running MOAR 6.2. Any ideas here?

I've begun getting this as well. I have a Note 3, stock rooted.
I get the sprint zone app when I dial *2. When I want to call sprint, I dial 1(800) 639-6111. I saved it as a contact.

The app has been removed as bloat and is probably going to be that way on most custom roms. You can reinstall it from the bloat installer located on that rom page. Not sure if you can get it from the play store too.

Makes perfect sense now thanks to you both! And I'll just have to add the contact as I'm perfectly happy with the bloat removed and staying that way!

scheduled messages disappeared?

hey guys, i received the 5.1.1 update with new icons couple weeks ago, and one week ago i did a factory reset, now i am looking to schedule a message but i can't find it in the messages options....am i missing something?
EDIT: weird, i found it, but, there seems something wrong or at least weird, if you enter the messages options and turn on "enhanced messaging" it changes the menu in the messages app and it no longer shows the schedule option, however, if you turn it off then the schedule option appears again....is this how it should be?
How weird surely it should be the other way around?

Not seeing SMS / texting status anymore

When I text on T-mobile, I can see the status of the SMS / Text messages like "Send", "Read" at the bottom of each text that you send.
Now I dont see that anymore.
Do you know how to turn it on or off?

If you or the person you're texting isn't in LTE coverage area then that happens also.

Try this, open the dialer and go to the settings. Then disable VoLTE and then enable it again and see if it works.

It work! That was the problem. Now I can see the message status.
Is this a known bug? Is there a FAQ on this? I wonder what makes it not working.
