Some come tru others dont unless people add text to pic
Some of my MMSs won't download either. I never thought of it being related to whether or not there's text with them before but will keep an eye out.
I thought it might be limited to MMSs from particular contacts so keeping an eye on that and will tidy up my contacts details if needed.
The two I successfully received from my wife had text in them. The one I got from my buddy had no text, and I couldn't download the pic in that one. I then sent one to my wife with no text, but she said she got it, so I don't know what the situation is. My buddy's which didn't come through was sent from TMo > VZN, whereas my wife and I each have the GNex so perhaps it's a content + carrier combination.

im on 4.0.2 i have noticed that hancent has updated twice since last week with improvements to allow the programs to run on ICS more smoothly hopefully there will be something soon
Try turning on your lte radio, see if maybe its a network issue?
"unfortunately, the process com.handcent.nextsms has stopped"
definately a weird issue
Aye I've received 2 MMSs from people on AT&T. One worked (it was a video), the other didn't (picture). I had to hold-click on the message and say "Download Attachment", then browse to the file using Astro to see it.
Haven't tried sending any yet...
Anyone come up with a fix? or do we have to wait for google?

Back when I was on Gingerbread, the native Google Talk app would always pull up the messages I typed on another source, such as my PC or my tablet. If I typed a line on the PC, and go to GTalk on my phone later, the messages would just pop up one by one until finished.
With the Google Talk in ICS Galaxy Nexus, this no longer happens. The phone's Talk app only shows what I type from the phone, not the PC or any other sources.
Anyone noticed this? Is this by design? Can I get Talk to behave like it did in GB?
Are you saying that on GB you would type a message and not send it and when you opened up google talk on your PC the unfinished message would still remain??
Or are you saying that the messages you are sending onyour PC are not showing up as sent messages on your phone google talk??

I've actually posted about this issue twice before, you can try the fixes listed on the first one and maybe it can help you, it didn't apply to me though.

On the other hand, I just got Nova and maybe I wasn't paying close attention to Google Talk when I opened it, but it seemed to have been online, so maybe issue is fixed? I'll test later on today, went through both extended battery and normal battery playing with homescreen layouts today.
Eitherway, I believe it's an incompatibility issue with ICS, or just permissions not being granted correctly, this is either fixed already, or can be fixed... just wish there was another person to confirm for us.

Doesn't fix my issue. That thread is about the phone not receiving messages when the PC one is active. I need messages sent on PC to show on the phone. Thanks though.
Just noticed some messages I typed on PC did show up on my phone, so it does still do it, but very inconsistently. Would like to know what the trigger is.
I was wondering if anyone else was having issues with the google voice app using their galaxy nexus on verizon..I am unable to send texts from the app. It just hangs at Sending.. with the little circle going around and around. It will stay at that screen for a few minutes then will say the message was canceled. I tried rebooting, uninstalling the app and nothing has fixed it. I also have tried it on 4g, 3g and Wifi. same result.

I'm so glad you posted this. I had the same issue! Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Seems to be working better though now but had problems all afternoon and into this evening.
I'm on VZW as well.

I had the same issue tonight and I just tried texting myself from GV and the text took 6 minutes for me to receive it. Something is definitely wrong at the moment.
I was also having issues last night (~5-8pm Pacific) with the app. Uninstalled, re-installed, cleared data and cache of app, all sorts of stuff. Gave up and sent from the mobile voice website and it was fine. Hours later it was working a bit dodgy. I have found that the app is much more problematic than the website or a chrome extension.
it does not work for me at all. For example, to send a text message. When I say "send text message to.....Message...Hello" there is nothing in the "to" field, everything is in the "message" field. I've seen this problem mentioned on google forums, but no answers.
Howdy,
Before I upgraded to CyanogenMod 9.0, I would get a Google Voice message notification for a text message. I'd go into the web version of Google Voice, answer the text and then after a bit, the notification would go away on my phone.
Now switched to CM9 and the notification doesn't go away unless I answer the text on my phone or clear it out on the phone.
I've tried GummyNex and CM9 and they both do it.
Has anyone else seen this? I've done the thing where I've uninstalled GV, did the *73, deleted all the Verizon VMs and the reinstalled GV but it still does it.
Don't think its related to your ROM as I'm having the exact same issue on stock 4.0.4 and have always been on stock. Seems to have started a couple weeks ago....
Been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what's going on and was about to start a thread myself asking if anyone else had the issue. Thought I was just crazy at first, but I know for a fact this is not how the app acted before. I've tried changing all kinds of things for my browser use of voice.google.com, deleted/re-installed the app, and nothing works.
I'll be texting using just the browser for a bit and look at my phone and I'll have a notification for "25 Google Voice Messages" or whatever. They never clear. I notice that when opening the GV app to the thread I'm texting in, it hasn't synced in the background, and takes a few seconds for the messages I had sent to show up in the thread. It seems as though Google Voice isn't getting background sync anymore.
Aww man So it was just highly coincidental that it happened around the same time I switched over to a different rom.
It's surprisingly frustrating for such a little thing. I just use it so much that it forces me to check the phone and clear it manually to make sure I don't *actually* have a new message when I'm using both my phone and the web app.
Argh.
Yeah - nothing I've found has fixed the issue.

Yes I think it's actually a coincidence as I said I've been on stock and it all of a sudden stopped working as it was. This is just really weird because there's been no update to the app or anything.
It's extra frustrating because Google Voice is my primary #, so I'm doing about 99.9% of my texting with it, and really enjoy being able to use voice.google.com. Dealing with clearing GV notifications every time I pick my phone up is very lame.

I don't currently have this with my yakju 4.0.4 OTA stock ROM, but I have seen it before on this phone and every other phone I've owned across stock & custom ROMs. Fairly confident it's a problem with the app itself

What could it be though? I've done everything short of a factory reset. Nothing about the app itself or the settings I used changed and it started happening out of nowhere.

I don't know.. I agree though that the problem just comes and goes, which is odd. Just a couple weeks ago they weren't clearing for me, but right now it's working fine. I remember thinking that's it's ridiculous this happens on stock firmware

Even moreso ridiculous if this is a known issue and they haven't addressed it even with these several early 2012 updates to the GV app, which made it a lot better overall in UI and UX. I just don't see how it can come and go with no changes whatsoever to your settings.
Mine definitely does the same thing... I thought it used to clear them for me, but I wasn't sure, and figured I was just thinking of how Google Talk clears the messages.
Not a huge deal to me, but it would definitely be nice if they would fix this. Our best bet is to make a post on the help forums with a bunch of posts in it.

If anyone has a chance, they should make a post in the Google Voice forums here (I'll try to do it later when I have a chance if no-one else gets to it): http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!categories/voice/using-google-voice-on-a-mobile-device. I heard that Google Engineers do monitor / read these sometimes, so if we all post in a thread there is a chance it will get read / fixed.
I really wish there was a better way to get stuff like this fixed.
Bit late to the party. Just wanted to chime in that in my experience I don't think I've ever seen the GV notification clear itself after checking the web interface on my computer.
I've been using android for a year now and have gone through 3 phones and the asus transformer tablet. My current phone is running a CM9 based rom, but still it doesn't clear these notifications.
Man, I'd love it if it did.
Note: I think that if you use the GV widget, you will see that the notification on the widget DOES clear after checking the web interface (or at least it did in GB because I just tested this on my current phone and widget doesn't clear it either). I suppose this means that GV is pushing the "read" status of an sms to our phones. The notification on the notification bar, however, still persists despite this.
EDIT: Given my last test on my current phone, it looks like the widget doesn't clear the notification like it used to on GB. It looks like it is, in fact, a syncing issue.

I can confirm that it actually did used to clear when viewed on another device, and this is the intended action. It should work exactly like an IMAP e-mail account (say, the GMail app). If you view a message on the device or in a web browser, it is cleared as read on the other. Google Voice used to do the same, and stopped doing so randomly. It's completely a backend problem.
Really wish they would fix this. Still happening on JB. Very annoying for those of us who text from the web all day.

I started with CM10 Nightly 0906 Nightly and I was in same boat. By clearing app data in settings I started receiving some of the pics. Still not able to get video. Will have some one try again tomm. Also I can't send video tells me "Message Size Limit Reached" "You can't add this video to your message"
So made some progress but not 100% yet! I have read all kinds of things. Also found this stuff but have not tried any of it yet and not sure any of it will help!

I was havin mms issues on cm10 nightlies, until i read someone's suggestion to go into messaging settings, and toggle auto retrieve for mms. I unchecked it, and have been able to receive all my mms.. Hope this works for you guys..

Ya, I tried that to and it works for my Pics but still cant send or receive video. So who knows. I guess since a lot of people are not complaining it seems to be hit or miss!
Kind of like the photos in gallery. I here some complaints about old pics not showing up. But mine has been working perfect.
I am thinking about wiping everything and starting on the latest build just to see. But who knows!

On cm10 clean install with the first nightly onward, I've never been able to send or receive MMS until the following finally worked for me on sprint. YMMV:
Got mms working finally by deleting mms.db and telephony.db in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony in databases folder (delete the 4 files in that directory). . I also happened to clear messaging app and phone app data by force stop and then clear data thru settings / apps / (scroll to rightmost category to find all apps / scroll down to find phone and messaging apps). Reboot Also did the voice dialer app --> open apns voice command and edit sprint mms proxy to 68.28.31.7 and mms port 80. Save (settings->save) and reboot. Not sure if all these steps needed or just first one.
UPDATE: It works but gets stuck again and requires a repeat of the above. Not sure this is really a fix.
Apologies if I am posting this in the wrong spot. I have a Pixel 2 XL(obviously) and had been on the Android beta program for some time now. The android p beta had been running really solid for me with no issues. So when they pushed it out officially last week i of course went for it. However, all of a sudden now, when *sending* texts, it gives me a notification sound (same as incoming notification). Anyone run into this? I searched the forums briefly but didnt see anyone with the issue although I couldve missed it.
Note- I'm using the Google Messages(I believe thats the official name) app, I just prefer it to Hangouts. I did check the settings, and disabled the setting for outbound notification sounds- but it persists.
Here's the kicker- it cant be isolated to just me, as my mom has the same phone -she messaged me last week and asked if she should update (I'm typically the guinea pig) and I said yep, been rock solid for me.. now she's getting the exact same behavior. So barring it being the messages app itself which i suppose is possible, I dont know.
Thoughts? Suggestions? I havent tried a different messenger app yet, suppose I could(textra maybe), I'm just partial to this one for whatever reason.
Thanks in advance!
Disregard. I guess its specific to Android Messages app. Installed another text app and the issue went no longer occurs.
I have the same issue with my Android Messages app
