Anyone else seeing unknown sender for mms? I'm using stock messenger and initially the mms shows in the correct thread but it then shows under unknown sender. It does this for incoming and outgoing mms. It just started happening after updating to 7.1.1. They aren't all in the same thread, there are several different unknown sender threads and they each contain messages from different ppl. Any advice on a fix if you've ever experienced this?
I also have the VZW messages app on my phone and sometimes I use it to sync messages to my device after I've been texting via my computer. I'm not certain if that has anything to do with it, haven't seen a correlation yet, but I wanted to make known the apps being used.

Forgive me if this has been discussed before; I searched but didn't find anything. I'm using an HTC Fuze, no major changes like a different ROM or anything. After I tried to send an MMS (two pictures in one message) to a contact, it failed to send for whatever reason. The problem that after attempting to send that message, I looked in the conversation thread for that contact, and all of our prior texts (a few thousand) had been seemingly eradicated, except for the failed MMS that I had just tried to send. Looking in my Sent box, all of my texts to that contact are still there, but neither my sent texts nor my received texts from that contact appear in the conversation in my Inbox.
However, if I turn off threaded SMS via Advanced Config, all texts from that contact appear in my Inbox. When I turn threaded SMS back on, they're gone again. I know they're on the phone, but I can't get them to come back to the threaded conversation! I've deleted the failed MMS that caused all of this, but that hasn't seemed to make a difference. Does anyone have a fix for this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Bump......
Recently, my SMS count has not been updating whenever I get a new SMS. It just stays at 0 all the time. Email counts and Missed Calls still work fine. It's just the SMS. Is there a possible solution for this without a hard reset? I've searched but couldn't find a solution.
Thanks.
What phone/ROM do you have?
Also, have you recently changed/updated/flashed anything, i.e. what has changed on your device which may coincide with you losing your sms count
I'm using an i8000 with kunchai's lite rom. I'm not sure when exactly it started but the last few programs I installed were basically wifi remote access and smsserver (which i uninstalled).
Also, I am now unable to send emails or smses from tmail.exe as well. For sending SMSes I have to use SMS chat. Whenever I try and send a new email, it just redirects me back to the inbox.
I wondered whether anyone else has seen this behaviour in the Stock SMS messaging app.
To set the scene I have a Vodafone Branded Sensation with the latest OTA applied.
When I create large text messages, so over 500 Characters which splits into 4 messages, I try and use a Google contact GROUP as the recipient. When I do this just before I click send I get the dreaded message "mms app has stop responding and needs to be forced closed".
I have no other option than to hit close, this then forces the app down and also doesn't save my mammoth message I just ticked in!!
Anybody else seen this happen, I swear it was working pre the OTA update!!??
EDIT: The same behaviour happens with Handcent SMS, which makes me think something more sinister is going on here!
I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4 to the Nexus 5 and i'm loving it! when I try to group text over MMS with my friends, who all have iphones, they receive the text just fine over MMS and I can reply, view, all the normal stuff, but every text they get from me start with (no subject) in bold over the normal message. Anyone had this issue before?
anyone know how to fix it?
I have already tried a plethora of messaging apps and made sure my MMS settings are correct and can't seem to find any way to remove the (no message) from the messages.
Any help at all would be appreciated!
Isn't that a iPhone issue then? Group messaging does use MMS and you can send with or without a subject but boldly displaying that there is no subject should be an issue on their end. I get group messages and it never shows "no subject"
Are you using Hangouts or another custom MMS/SMS app? If using custom, try looking for any settings that would say to include subject line with text. If running Hangouts, I checked and there is no setting to include a subject in Group MMS or anything related to it, so the issue resides as mentioned with the iPhone user.
Try enabling data when you receive an MMS.

Hi all..
I'm just kind of taking a shot in the dark here but I've been having an odd problem that has very specific conditions, so here goes..
I am on Aio wireless using a Samsung i9500 with Kitkat. Most of my family are all on StraightTalk wireless.
The problem I have is that my 2 favorite SMS apps seem to somehow have issues getting StraightTalk to download MMS messages I send.
My family members using StraightTalk are able to send MMS messages to me regardless of which texting app they or I use, however, they do not receive my MMS messages if I use the app Textra, or HoverChat to send the MMS. I do not get a failure to send message, the recipients phone just acts as if I have not sent them anything. The thing is, these same 2 apps can send MMS to Verizon customers perfectly fine (I have tested with 2 friends). I know it has to be a problem with these apps as the very same recipients DO get my MMS from the following other apps:
GoSMS
Handcent
Chomp
EvolveSMS
Hello SMS
Sliding SMS
and the default messaging app that came on my phone.
My problem is this.. I have emailed the developers of both apps and tried to explain this but they can't seem to see that there is a problem. (the Textra app dev got me to send a log and the log showed my MMS successfully sending to Aio's MMSC) What I am wondering is, is there anyone else that has Aio wireless and knows someone using StraightTalk that can see if the same issue happens to you? Or does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be and how I can better explain to the developers of these 2 apps so that they may be able to find and fix the issue? I have no idea why StraightTalk would reject an MMS ONLY from a specific app and carrier combination but it is absolutely maddening.
Could these 2 apps be appending some sort of tag or invalid data on the MMS that causes StraightTalk to ignore it and never send the download request to the recipient?
Any help would be appreciated.
