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.

Well, it turns out that a battery pull solved my problem.
Figures that something that simple would cure it..
I installed Go SMS because i love the features especially the pop notification. Using the app, I've come to realize that text messages are not being sent. It just stays there and never sends. I looked at HTC's messaging app and the text also displays there are being sent but never sends.
Has anyone else had a problem sending texts with GoSMS?
I uninstalled Go SMS and using just the default to see if Go SMS was the one causing the issue
maybe I am the only one.
I've had this issue as well. Sometimes it will just say text not sent and never send.
Other times I will get an error saying text not sent but it did indeed send so I end up sending two of the same.
Best thing you can do with this is pull the SIM card and re-insert it. This problem, if existing, affects more than just people who use GoSMS as GoSMS is just a skinned texting surrogate. Sure, it sends and receives texts, but it does so using the frameworks of the main messaging app on your device. I've encountered this problem with the main messaging app, and I just pull the SIM or put it in airplane mode for a few seconds then take it off and it's fixed it every time.
Hope this helps.

Does the issue go away after doing that or does it come back? Should I turn off the phone when I remove the sim or should I do it while it is on?
If a text doesn't send for me I can still send one right after and that one sends fine.
so for the past 2 days i used HTC's messaging app and everything always sent. just now i redownloaded GO SMS and the second text i sent, it did not send so it must be something else
try handcent
Go msg might have bugs on ICS

it's an uglier app but I did download it. So far so good
For what it's worth, gosms works fine for me other than the recipient used to get duplicate messages. I froze the stock messaging app and changed gosms settings to control text delivery and it's been all good so far. It's not an ics compatibility issue, it's sense. Hope that helps

Can you tell me how to set up GoSMS to control the delivery of texts?

Go into settings and press the advanced tab. Scroll all the way to the bottom for important tips. Then check the box for stock messaging uninstalled

I will keep this in mind. I haven't rooted my phone so I can't freeze the message app.

So i have found out what is causing my text not to send. If I reply to a text using the pop notification while I am in another app like Google Chrome or draw something, the text does not send. When I go to go sms, I can see the green arrow showing that it is sending but it never does. The only times I can successfully 100% of the time send a text from the pop up notification is if I am on the home screen instead of within another app. Can anyone else test this for me to see if I am the only one with this issue?

I had the exact same problem with duplicate messages. the freeze worked for me. i had no more issues with messages being sent but i no longer have root access so i can't confirm if that would have changed over time. I have no issues right now.

So even if you reply from the pop up notification while within another app, your text message sends?
Since there is no way to root the AT&T HOX without it being discovered by htc/at&t, I haven't rooted and therefore can't freeze the messaging app

Not sure if you have solved your problem yet, but ChompSMS has worked well for me since the latest update to cater to some of HTC One X's quirks.

I had completely forgotten about chomp. Thanks for reminding me. I started using it and while I still get messages not sending if I reply to a text from the pop up notification, it doesn't do it nearly as much as go sms. With go sms, the message not sending would happen one after another but not with chomp. And even though I don't like the sound, I've set chomp to make a sound after a successful sent message so at least I can tell if my message has sent without having to open the app.
Thanks again for mentioning chomp

I'm having the same issue with texts not sending from the pop up window. It doesn't happen all the time but enough that it's annoying and I always go to the app to make sure it sent, which kind of defeats the purpose of the pop up. I haven't noticed whether it was when I'm in another app or not. However, it's not that it just doesn't send, it's totally lost. There will be no record of it. Other times messages seem to just get stuck sending and I have to click edit and resend in order to get them to go through.
GO SMS has also become very laggy. I can't really type when it's sending or receiving a message. If I'm typing during this time, it's delayed in showing what I've typed and auto-correct and word suggestion don't work. Also, when I leave a conversation and go back to the main screen, it takes several seconds to update the threads. Long enough that I can click on one but then it takes me to the wrong one because it's updated. I thought maybe I just have too many messages. I've set it to limit messages to 700 per thread. Anyone else experiencing these issues? I think I'll try Chomp again until these issues are fixed.
Hey,
I'm using the stock messaging app on a stock gs3. Non stock apps don't have this issue.
But what happens is if I scroll to a conversation quickly and click on it, it will open that conversation for a fraction of a second then suddenly a different conversation will open instead. Can result in embarrassing text messages to the wrong person if I don't pay attention.
Anyone have this issue? what can i do??
Is anyone else having problems with HTC's stock texting app sending messages slowly? For example, when I type out a message and send it, the message remains in the text box for about 3 seconds before actually sending which can be annoying.
Also, I've notice that new messages take a while to load when you open the message app. I'm thinking about using a 3rd party texting app. It's becoming annoying.

I actually just noticed this yesterday. I thought I was the only one.

This has started to occur for me quite recently as well. No way can all three of our accounts be connected in some way...
So when you text someone, let's say their name is Dan, a circle with the letter D will appear next to the message they sent you. If you want, you can set a picture and the pic will take the place of the circled letter.
My GF just got the pixel and not only does the circle and letter appear next to the person's message, but it also appears next to her messages as well.
On MY phone, I see the circle and letter for the other person, but not for myself. Is there a way I can enable that for myself and set a picture for myself as well?
I hope this makes sense. If not, I can try and post some pics of this phenomenon.

Know exactly what you're talking about. And if you're using the Verizon Messages+ app, there's no changing it. Other messaging apps let you have avatars for both the sender and the recipient, or none for both.
Neither my phone or my GFs phone are Verizon, but her phone has the circled letter by her name and mine doesn't. She just got the same phone yesterday (used), did a factory reset and started from scratch. Not sure what's different about her phone from mine

What messaging app are you using? You do not have to be on Verizon to use the Messages+ all. So, what app do you use, and what does she use?

I've never seen an avatar for my messages other than in hangouts.
Do you have multiple entries in Contacts for yourself? I wonder if the default entry "Me" causes confusions as to which avatar to display.

I don't have any entries for myself in contacts. I actually tried to add myself, but it still didn't display an avatar next to my messages
This always bugged me too. i noticed if i sign-in to google + it updates my picture for the "me" contact and uses my pic for messenger as well.
So I just factory reset my phone, and when it initially restarted, messenger was showing a circle with my initial by my messages. Then an update from the play store for messenger installed, and now that circle is gone.
