[Q] Messaging App Glitch after G2 update - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After installing the new T-Mobile G2 software update, my messaging app is showing my contact picture as a grey box.
Its not the square box with the android in it. It is a weird rectangle that seems to be a glitch of some sort.

I've got the same issue, uninstalled re-installed still don't display and they used to.
have you tried going to the application settings?
then customize the style and enable contact picture?
maybe its disabled in the new update

I done that too, and I enabled large picture under the 'display contacts picture' setting. still no luck
in that case its probably an issue with handcent, itll probably get updated soon so keep your eyes open you can always leave a comment on the market?
You can add me to the list . I thought it might have been something I uninstalled, but doubt it.
Contact the developer of the app.
I got the same problem , only a few pictures works ...
It seems to work well with Chompsms, but i dont want those damn "iphone" bubbles
I'm having the same issue but I am doubting that it is due to Handcent.

I have my contact sync'd from Google and Facebook for HTC Sense on my HTC Incredible. Any SMS or MMS message I receive will show the contact image except the 10 or so contacts that I have in my Google Talk list. I have tried "un-linking" them but it didn't correct the problem. The same thing is happening in the original Messages application so that is why I am questioning the cause being associated with Handcent.
Any other thoughts about this?
I'm having the same issue. I recall I fixed this once by going into the contacts application and clearing the data. Everything synced up again.
OR perhaps I just uninstalled Facebook for HTC Sense and reinstalled it..I can't remember. Damn.
Yep..uninstalled FB from syncing, and reinstalled..takes a while..but they are all back in hancent.

[Q] Messaging app icon showing 1 unread.

Read every message individually, showing 1 unread on app shortcut icon.
Deleted all messages, still showing 1 unread.
Any suggestions?
happens to me the odd time, leave it, it will go away. it's an odd but rare bug!
Leave it?
It's playing havoc with my OCD!!
I had that a lot. Then I started using the Gmail app and updated it from the Market. Since then I haven't had that problem.

No, I'm talking about the stock sms messaging shortcut icon (as found in the bottom toolbar as standard).
what version of the play you using?
like gsm cdma?
happen to me also but it the stupid visual voicemail from verzion lol kept showing up as a txt
i can confirm that bug on 4.0.A.2.368 UK Generic. Using GO SMS Pro but stock messaging app icon shows a number 1 on a circle. good thing it's not on my homescreen. just use a 3rd-party messaging app and replace the stock sms app icon instead. you won't be bothered anymore, as i bet you barely visit your app drawer as i do.
I got the same problem on mine, v annoying!

[Q] text message app, everything is blacked out

hey everyone,
so this is actually for my girlfriends g2 and i haven't seen it in person yet, i'll see it tonight, but i figured i'd throw some feelers out there...
her g2, whenever she goes into the text messaging app, the whole screen except the top 1/4 (so she can see the status bar, the create new message, and the most recent text conversation). she's NOT rooted, totally stock and never upgraded to gingerbread. so the notification that she should upgrade has been popping up so she finally went ahead and let it upgrade today while she was at work and it seemed to all go fine she says but now that its rebooted and upgraded, the text message app is still exactly the same issue.
like i said i haven't seen it myself. any ideas? first things first is i was probably going to go in and force close the app. if that doesn't help i'm going to start clearing out her texts (who knows when the last time she cleared them out was). after that... not sure. any other ideas?
thanks!
Dave
This seems to be a common problem. I googled it and found others with that same problem. Didn't see any fixes, though. Try a third party texting app. Otherwise you may need to replace the screen. Could try rooting and flashing a custom rom as well.

Stock message app not searching for/finding contacts in 'to:' field

I recently rooted and am using the Clutch ROM which has been working great for the most part.
My issue is:
When I go to the 'messages' app, which still seems to be stock HTC, and type in the 'to:' field to select a name, no filtered contact list pops up so I have to click on the person icon and select a contact from the whole list
Notes:
I noticed that on my un-rooted phone, there were two message apps (or at least icons). Similarly, I had a Facebook app and a Facebook for HTC app which did completely different things (the facebook for htc app worked entirely on syncing the phone with contacts/calendars/etc...) and I thought that maybe the second message app somehow synced everything properly however I may be mistaken.
Does anyone know anything about this? I appreciate, in advance, any help from you guys.
Thanks,
Jon

[Q] Facebook notifications not working LGG3 D855

Hello All,
Got my G3 2 days ago and I noticed that I dont receive notifications for comments, events, likes, friend requests.
My notifications in FB are already enabled. I have already soft restarted by removing battery. I already HARD reset the phone and nothing has changed.
I guess the small red bubble that appeared on all apps when having a notification is not applicable to LG G3? (I used to be a GS4 owner before)
Does anyone else experience this?
Any workarounds?
Please note that I am on V10h-EUR-XX
anyone please? my friends are getting them except me!;/
Anyone please?
basically my notifications are ENABLED under App Settings in facebook app.
The strange thing is that in the facebook app under account settings --> Notifications --> Mobile Push ...Those notifications I receive them successfully.
the notifications under App Settings I do not receive them.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hi
Facebook notifications are working (now) without problems on my LG G3. But the strange thing is, after an update in august of my LG G3 I had the same issue like you.
What I have to do was....
-- Settings
-- Applications
-- Find the Facebook app
-- In it, the "Show notification" check was unchecked!
After I checked it, I received the notificatoin like before
Maybe it helps....
Thanks.
I fixed them with a different way.
I have followed this guide.
