Sometimes when I recieve texts the pop-up comes and goes away before I can read it. Then when I open up the application and goto the conversation view, the text I just received isn't there. It's been happening quite frequently now and is getting really annoying. I think mostly happens when I'm already doing something on the phone and I get a text.
I did some Googling and I found that people were reporting this in September with the version of Handcent then, but there wasn't any fix mentioned and I can't seem to find anymore information.
I'm running the latest version of Handcent on Fresh 1.1 with the Gumbo Kernel. Any ideas?
nevermind googled further and found a solution. will see if it work.

I've had this happen, also.. I think the last handcent update said something about fixing this, but It obviously didn't fix the problem...
I had that problem too, but for only one contact for some odd reason. So whenever that person sent a text, it wouldn't show up other than in the pop up box, but once I closed it, hte message was gone. I uninstalled and then reinstalled and haven't had the problem since. It's been a week.
Does anyone else here use MightyText? Since switching over to the Idol 3 last week, I'm having some issues. When I send a text from the MightText web client, the message goes out and the recipient receives it. However, the message doesn't show up in the conversation list on my phone (it used to show up on my old phone). I tried uninstalling GoSMS and just using the stock message app but it's still happening.
If there are other MT users on this board, can you tell me if you have the same issue on your Idol 3?

I don't use that app but whenever moving from one Android version to a new one there are always apps that don't work properly. Same thing happens on Windows as well. The app dev needs to update their app for the new OS. Let them know what happening and if their still supporting their app they will fix it. I have an issue with Next Browser but my issue is it won't even install. Others are having the same issue on Lollipop but on other phones besides the Idol 3. I would recommend using an app that works on Lollipop until your favorite one is being updated/fixed. You may need to do some searching.
It is working for me. After installing the app, the app directs you to a website. This confirms it is communicating with the phone.
I have contacted the developer and informed them. I was just curious if this is a Lollipop issue, and Idol 3 issue, or just something screwy with my phone, and that's what I'm trying to track down.

Right, the app itself is working and sending text messages. The problem I'm having is that the outgoing text doesn't show up in the conversation list, so when I'm viewing a conversation on my phone, I can only see the other person's texts, not the ones I sent through MightyText. If I send a message through the phone, it shows up as normal.
It's not really a major issue, just something that was working fine on my old GS4/KitKat but isn't working the same on my Idol 3/Lollipop.
i just noticed that. kind of makes it one sided..... i have the same issue. I am going to try push bullet and see if that fixes it

same thing happens with pushbullet. My responses do not appear in the messages. bummer....
I know I'm late to this party, but I also have the same issue. Any luck with Pushbullet? This is definitely somehow specific to the idol3. I haven't had this issue with any other phone over the years, on any Android OS version.

I installed Textra yesterday and it's been working great. I tried Hangouts but was having weird issues.

So you're successfully using Pushbullet or Mightytext with Textra, on the Idol 3? Including outgoing messages showing in the message threads? I just can't seem to get this working right on my phone.

I have Pushbullet, Textra, MightyText, Hangouts, Messenger and Messaging. I have tried various combinations to get my outgoing text from my Chromebook to appear on my Idol3, but no success. I had no troubles with my Nexus 5.

Well at least it's not just me. Thanks for the input.
Similar issue with OK Google sent texts
I'm having a similar issue when I send texts using "Ok Google".
The texts are received by the other party fine, but they never show up in my text history.
Is anyone else having the same issue? Anyone know of any fixes?
Same Issue Here
Outgoing texts do not appear in my conversation list for IFFT, Macrodroid sent texts.
I looked all over the internet for this issue... I'm glad I know now what's the problem, but I wish
a solution had emerge... any luck for you guys ?
This seems to be an Alcatel issue. I have tried reaching their support team regarding this issue and have not had any responses.
This makes the phone useless for me as I send out a lot of group texts via my computer. If I had known this would not work, I would have never purchased it.
Hi
Looked here and over on the one+ forum but could not find an answer
Running the latest nightly updates and on Uber CM12.1. I have Viber and Whats app installed and have the notifications set so a pop up reminder prompt box comes up with each message received. However lately this is not happening and when I go in I can see a message has been received but no prompts and message can be old.
I have Greenify installed and reading forums thought this may have has the effect but removed these apps from hibernation.
Anyone have similar problem and how did you resolve it
Cheers

I am using Whatsapp only, but the pop-up is working as it should - Exodus 27th build
Can anyone help me figure out why Google Messenger is showing all my contacts as Unknown Sender. Everything works fine if I use Textra or the native sms app. I'm using an Honor 8.
The exact same thing just started happening to me with my Honor 8. I don't know what caused it. I'm on the 7.0 EMUI 5.0 Official build, and it just started happening last night

I tried reinstalling it but it still persists.
It also stopped working for me with the update to 7.0. Extremely annoying considering its my go to SMS app and I can't stand the stock one :/ Considering a factory reset...Unless anyone knows of a fix. I've played around with every permissions setting and have zero luck thus far.
I've had this happen to me too. It's very frustrating. I'm considering a factory reset, but would be even angrier if that doesn't fix the problems. In addition to every conversation switching from "Unknown Caller" is that the keyboard or reply option is completely gone. I had to switch back to the native app.
Other issues I have with EMUI are that Google Camera doesn't work, although I heard that Google is only allowing that to be installed on Nexus devices. It doesn't show up in a Playstore search anymore. Attempts to side load it have failed.
Another issue I have is that the Email app won't dismiss the unread count bubble all the time. It seems to be intermittent. A reboot or several hours clears this issue up for awhile.
(Sorry for multiple bug reports in this thread, but Google Messenger not working is really bothering me most.)
Hi all, anybody else notices this?
Since the December 5 update I don't seem to be able to pick up when I'm called. There's no dialer / phone (image) popping up to pick up the phone. I have to call back people instead. Total bummer, very inconvenient.
Any suggestions other than installing another dialer of course (although, if you have a great tip...) appreciated!
Not having that issue
Wiped cache and data to be sure. But happened again
For me dialer is working fine but having issue in whatsapp call notification. Phone just rings and vibrates without any information. When whatsapp os opnened the it will show the call on top bar.
Update: my issue is resolved by installing a newer version which is not available in play store currently.
