New Google Messenger - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else had issues with MMS on the new Google messenger app? I was able to send but not received. Once I switched to hangouts everything worked fine.

I am on the new lollipop BTW.

You have to set Messenger as your default SMS app.
I was able to send/receive SMS frome Messenger on my N5 with Lollipop.

Lol it was my default messaging app. Also I'm talking about MMS not SMS. SMS did work fine.

MMS is working fine for me. Sending and receiving. I don't know why Hangouts would work and not Messenger.

Blocking SMS

Hi
My N5 somehow seems to block sms from only one sender. When I need to receive "sms passcode" for my job citrix system.
Any CLUES?????
Im desperate, I receive sms from everyone else.
Which sms app are you using? You did not blacklist them/ block them accidentally did you?
I have the same problem with Handcent SMS (5.8). Handcent is somehow blocking flash messages (Class 0). With Textra or Hangouts there is no problem receiving Citrix Passcode.
Nexus 5 (4.4.4), rooted, stock recovery + Handcent SMS 5.8

Google Voice MMS group messaging on T-Mobile

Has anyone got this working on their phones? I am able to send and receive pics just fine but group messaging still does not work with my Google Voice number. I thought everything was supposed to be working on all carriers(except Nazi Verizon)after the update the other day.

New Android Messenger App - Can't receive MMS

Hi there,
I recently got the new Android messenger app after upgrading my phone to L
I prefer it to hangouts, but I can't receive MMS.
The important thing is - if I use hangouts, I can receive them without issue on hangouts. So I don't think it's my APN settings that are the issue (I'm on Straight Talk)
Is anyone else having this problem?
Tried unchecking auto retrieve MMS, but it just freezes on 'downloading' and the MMS never shows up.
Thanks for any help you can offer

Ah right - I tried doing that but it didn't work. Thanks for the suggestions though.
I think part of the issue is Messaging has no options for MMS, whereas in Hangouts you can select a different APN.
I can't see any option for this in the messaging app.
I'm having the same issue. I've got android L on the lg g3
MMS works perfectly fine for me in the Messenger app. Both sending and recieving.
I'm also on straight talk and MMS worked fine in hangouts. Since installing messenger it won't receive. Just sits hanging on the downloading screen.
I would love to start using messenger as I feel it handles SMS just slightly better, but can't do without the MMS and group texting features. Will wait for update.
No problems here either, and I'm in an edge area.
I've encountered the same problem. Tried multiple ROMs to be sure; same problem existed. Messaging lets me receive them, but not Messenger. I have to change my default SMS app every time I want to download a MMS message. Sending MMS works, strangely enough.
Same here....when I receive a MMS , the app seems to freeze , I can't send any sms during the "downloading" time
Doesn't work
I always hated Hangouts so i downloaded SMS app now i tried downloading messenger and it will not download MMS messages. I am on Straight Talk and have a Nexus 5.
Thanks
Pic shows my issue and when i hit "Tap" it said download but will not. HELP!!!!!
What I did (I found this somewhere online), go and delete all the APN settings except the one you use. Reboot and viola. MMS on AT&T Straight Talk worked for me in Google Messenger!

[q] mms picture messages problem

My G920T cannot send MMS picture messages or receive them using stock messaging. Textra works fine, but not the case with the stock. Any suggestions?

Issue with MMS (with any app aside from stock Huawei messages)

Ok, so I dowloaded Textra & SMS messages from petal search. Both apps work perfect with SMS, but when you try sending MMS it fails. I tried manually setting MMS in textra but still did not work. Anyone experience this? or know how to fix? Thanks
