Group Messages Sending Seperately - Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers

Anyone else having this issue.
Group text randomly sends messages to each individual user in MMS group when using Samsung Messages. It's been happening for months. Most environments are mixed and Android and iPhone users. RCS is turned on for me. Happens several times a day and I get no indication of it happening until someone responds to me separate from the group. My message for me shows correctly sent in the group.
This does not happen with any other messaging program such as Google or Textra. If I switch to Google after this happens I can see the message I sent 3 times in the group thread if there are 3 other users In it. But no individual threads.
Like I said this has been happening for months and every time I switch back to samsung messages after an update it's the same issue that makes me move away from it. The group settings are toggled correctly, data is on correctly, I've cleared storage, reset my phone (after UI3 update) and yet this still occurs.
I'm currently on the U1 Note 20 Ultra, on One UI 3 with a T-Mobile Sim.

[Q] A few issues with SMS messaging

Might be a slow work day, so I'm hoping I can get rid of some the little bugs that have been bothering me....
1. Sometimes I will receive the same text message multiple times, up to about 10 but it's usually only one or two duplicates. This can happen over a period of about 20 minutes.
2. Messages get delivered several hours later or only after a reboot. There is not usually any indication that the sms failed to deliver. I sent a text yesterday to my brother, and it seemed to go out fine with no error message. After rebooting my phone today, I shortly thereafter received a confused text asking what I was talking about. The text I thought I had sent yesterday now appeared in our conversation with a timestamp of when I restarted my phone.
3. The stock messaging app doesn't give me any notifications at all. Obviously, that's not acceptable, so I'm stuck using a 3rd party sms app (handcent). Don't know if this is related, but I use Google Voice for my voicemail and that also doesn't give me notifications (have my voicemails sent to my gmail account as a workaround on that). If I open the apps my voicemails and texts are there, just no notification from the phone.
I know at least the first two issues could be an issue with the carrier (at&t), but I had none of these problems with an iphone prior to switching or when using the mediocre AT&T Messages app on this phone.
I was hoping these problems would magically disappear after rooting and installing a new ROM (viperXL), but that hasn't been the case.
Thanks for any help!

not receiving some text messages

For some reason I am not receiving all text messages . Random texts will not show up on my phone even though they show sent on the other person's phone. Getting frustrating bc I have missed some important texts. I googled the problem and it there was an article from 2 days ago about the issue without a fix available. FYI I am on the TMobile Galaxy S8+ ....anyone else experience this issue? Anyone know of a fix?
i doubt its the phone its probably a bug on your account from tmo
We need to get this to thread going. It's a big discussion topic on Reddit and articles are showing up on Android sites.
I'm with Telus in Canada. I've been using the Android Messages app. I have no idea how many texts I'm not getting but there's one friend who's asked me a couple of times if I got their text and I've said no. I've seen screenshots from them that show the texts they sent. That person actually uses an S7 with default Samsung Messages app.
There's another case today where my kid's school sends messages to parents via both text and email. I always get their messages twice. Once via text, the other via email. Today I only got an email message, so clearly it's not just texts from one person not getting through.
Just received some texts from two days ago. Not all texts, but the last few that never showed up. Maybe something is getting fixed?
As of yesterday I still have been missing some texts daily
Did you recently switch from iPhone? Sometimes iMessage messes up senders that use an iphone, and you wont get it.
On the flipside, though, there does seem to be an issue with texting anyways, or MMS. Like the videos look like ****, or, I have even seen messages that delayed WEEKS come through. For example, my wife uses Handcent, I use Samsung Message app. Over a month ago, my brother in law sent her a pic of our dog, which she forwarded to me...but I didn't get it until a month later, when she accidentally opened the stock messages app, instead of the Handcent app she usually uses. Then, I got all the damn replies a month late from the related group messaging.
This was happening to me weeks ago so is nothing new. Unsure why it's suddenly become such a worldwide issue in the last few days.
I've tried every SMS app going as well as the stock one and it doesn't matter which I use. The messages still didn't arrive.
My S8+ was bought factory unlocked in the UK and it's on the 3 network.
This definitely exists. I have narrowed my issue to long text messages that would be split into 2 or more. I have since switched to the Android Messaging app and no longer have the issue..... I would try it...
My issue existed with the native Samsung Messenger app.

Problems with group texts

Sometimes I can not send out or receive group texts. When I know the group text function is not working, I can usually fix it by a doing a re-set. But, I don't always know the group function is not working. Has anyone discovered a permanent solution to this problem? Thanks.
I get group texts completely out of order from how they were sent or sometimes get a flood of messages after a 10-15 min delay. It all started when I switched to the pixel 2 from my honor 8. I've been using Textra on T-Mobile this whole time. I've even tried using the Android Messenger and it works even worse.

Not Receiving SMS Texts

Anyone else have an issue where certain texts dont come in? I was texting my girlfriend and got no response for several hours. Messaged her thru Instagram and she said she replied and showed me a screenshot of the message sending from her iPhone. Ive had this issue in the past with messages coming from iPhones and thought it was just a bad day for someone higher up at Apple/Android. Both restarted our phones and texts works again but I still never got the ones she sent. When I restarted my phone it said the last 2 texts didn't send even though she got them.
Today I just found out I didn't get a an SMS text from a friend who I believe is on an iPhone as well
What is going on? Verizon OP7P but I bought directly from OP
Do you have cdma-less configured on your Verizon account? Do you have Instagram battery optimization turned off? Do you have an sms app that works properly when you are connected to WiFi? Something like message+? Are you on 9.5.10?
I had an issue with not receiving text's sometimes or sometimes even texts not sending. I mostly noticed the issue would occur in group chats as well as when i would attempt to send an image to somebody. I mostly use Textra for my SMS app, but i noticed that when i disabled my DNS module in Magisk the issue seemed to stop. I have since just been using the 1.1.1.1 DNS app and added my texting app as an exception and I have not noticed any issues.
When I got the OnePlus 6T last year, I couldn't receive any messages also. Learned from forums that you have ask a Verizon representative to add CDMA radio to your new phone. I think it's called CDMA less, once I got that added then got the messages. The 6T was the first phone OnePlus released onto Verizon's coverage.
Me too you have to tell Verizon you need cdma less.
I have this issue on occasion. I also use Textra but I am on Tmobile. I did have the messages app disabled but now trying it enabled with no notifications. This way I only get notifications from Textra. Been good for two days as far as I can tell.
I have the international version I got directly from Oneplus.

SMS issues with group text

I had a note 9 with att, android 10 and used android messages without issue.
I upgraded to a Note 20 with att, android 10 and used android messages and now have a group text issue.
I have a group text with 10 friends and never had an issue. Now I get 2 issues.
1. When a new person sends a text it starts a new message so instead of 1 long message I get new a group text everytime.
2. Also now when I send a text it appears twice once like i sent it, and a 2nd time like i received my text like another group member sent it to me.
I have been searching the web to figure it out but have been stuck, so any help would be appreciated.
PS I tried using a few different text apps but they all did the same thing.
