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.

oh okay. maybe they are fixing the problem, but one platform at a time? idk
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.

I switched to CM11 nightlies when it came out for galaxy nexus. Been having all kinds of issues with texting. First i tried hangouts and i couldnt get lightflow to work with it so i could get repeat notifications and stuff like that. Gave up on hangouts and switched to the normal messaging app. Probably should add that my voicemail and text messages are going through google voice account but i have google voice setup on phone only to sync the voicemails and let normal messaging app to deal with sms/mms. anyway, since switching to the normal messaging app i have been getting text messages multiple times. just had a few texts i originally received about 5 hours ago come through again in a quick burst right after i got a new message from somebody else. i have played with lots of the settings but nothing seems to fix this. the other day i got repeat messages come through the second time at about 3am which was annoying as hell. thinking about it some more it also did it once or twice when i was using hangouts. please help!?!?
i just looked online at my google voice account and im not getting them twice on there so its something on the phone doing it. going to uninstall lightflow and see if its causing the problem.
It could be a problem with CM11. I remember having the issue on CMetal when the message would come in twice using the stock messaging app. It was later fixed by the developer. So maybe its an issue Cyanogenmod has to fix. As far as Lightflow working with Hangouts. It works fine for me. You need to make sure you turn off the notification in the Hangouts app so you dont get the sound/vibrate twice.

thanks. so far so good with lightflow uninstalled- no double messages yet and have received some texts in last hour or so and none ofthem have repeated. problem with lightflow and hangouts i was having wasnt double notifications, it was i got only the default hangouts notification and nothing that was set in lightflow. ill keep playing with it i guess and keep updating CM and try again in a few days or week to see if it works better.
mind sharing your settings you had for lightflow- what settings for lightflow app and then what notifications you were using (all hangouts messages, sms, mms, etc). there is so many to choose from for hangouts in lightflow i wasnt sure what correct ones to use was and all the combinations i tried didnt seem to work. thanks.

The only thing I touched in light flow was the "hangouts-all notification types". I didn't use the MMS and SMS ones.

thanks. reinstalled lightflow, reselected hangouts as default sms app, and just did what you said above and it seems to be working. Before i had messed with lightflow settings and clearly one of those options screwed things up. no double messages yet either- ill keep my fingers crossed that either reinstalling or the latest CM update fixed that. thanks for your help- appreciate it!
thought everything was working but still getting messages coming through a second time. seems to be only the messages that i dont actually go in the app and mark as read. im going to make sure i clear those and see if it helps for now.

Great, report back.
One suggestion though, instead of going through all these trial and error attempts, you could just get a logcat and get it to lightflow dev/CM11 maintainer (or nightly thread), surely they will be able to help more/pinpoint the culprit.

thanks for the suggestion. ill try and figure out how to do that and get it to them.
i have still been messing with it and have had no luck. it is so $%#&ed up i am annoyed beyond belief. just a few minutes ago- got a notification of a photo of my niece my brother texted to me. preview of photo was visible in notification but when i click on it, nothing, messages just disappears. Not to mention im not just getting double messages anymore, i get up to quadruple messages sometimes. ive been close to just throwing my phone against the wall when suddenly every message i received in the last day come through again, 4 times each, and phone is trying to notify for each message- feels like its going to vibrate itself to pieces and the beeping over beeping over beeping is just crazy.
Doesnt matter if i have hangouts or the stock messaging app as the default sms/mms app. doesnt seem to matter what settings i use in any of them, because ive tried just about every combination. i'm eligible for a phone upgrade at the end of this month so i just have to make the phone bearable until then. im going to try the logcat thing but after i send that ill just go back to stock to see if that helps cuz im going to go crazy(ier) having to deal with this anymore. Grrrr!
sorry to keep posting on here to complain but just to add to the mystery. brother resent the text that disappeared when i clicked on it a few minutes ago. new one opened fine and the one that disappeared earlier suddenly showed up also.
Since day 1 there have been occasional problems with my Hangouts messaging (not SMS enabled)...sometimes it takes 7-10 minutes before a message comes through. Its weird because its not all the time...maybe every few days or so. My wife is even getting mad at me because she thinks I'm ignoring her. I flashed a new ROM hoping the problem would go away, but the problem continues whether stock or non. Only hangouts seems to be affected...everything else with the phone seems fine. I am about to start looking at 3rd party apps, but I prefer to stick with google since it integrates well into gmail and keeps chat history tied to google acct. Anyone else having this problem? It took me a while before I even noticed it was a problem tho...mostly thanks to the wife.
I don't use Hangouts, so I'm not sure of it's a common issue. That being said, have you tried the stock Messages app? It works flawlessly for me...

Use hangouts a ton with both family and business both on my phone and in chrome browsers on desktops. No real lag except when I am using the browser and then move to the phone, but as soon as it sees me using the phone it is the same. Don't use it for SMS.
Forgot to mention this only started happening with my Gnote3. I have been using Hangouts exclusively for a long time and ALWAYS worked flawlessly with my other Androids. I've never seen a problem until I bought the Gnote3.
I tried using that but the lag was unbearable.

I am suffering from the same issues & I don't want to use a separate app for sms. I live having it all in one app. Also, I only have this problem on tw roms.

Its just the app man. Nothing you can do, especially in busy rooms its terrible
Hangouts stopped working altogether for me. I had to switch back to Google Voice just to get texts.
Hangouts is goofy, sometimes it won't notify of new messages when they're received, sometimes it doesn't receive them at all and sometimes its delayed. I'll be talking to my girlfriend via hangouts on my PC via a wired connection and sometimes the message will come in on my phone at the same time, 30 seconds later a few minutes later, or not at all until I refresh the conversation.

If I am actively chatting with someone on my PC responses don't show actively on my phone unless I look for them. If I stop responding on the PC, the phone starts to announce new messages. It think this is a feature.

I thought that too, but it seems to do it whenever it likes. Prime example: I've been chatting with my girlfriend on my phone and the screen is off, I have gmail open in Chrome but it's not the active tab. She sends me a message and both my phone and my pc notify me of a new message at the same time.
Does anyone else have issues with SMS sent directly from the phone not syncing with mightytext?
Texts sent from the mightytext through the browser seem be sync fine but SMS sent directly from the phone don't show up

Yeah, I seem to be having the exact same problem. I also get a warning message from Chrome that says that my phone isn't confirming that messages are being sent (when I send them from Chrome) --- but it appears they actually *are* going out successfully, the confirmation just isn't getting back to Mightytext on Chrome.
Haven't had time to dig deeper / debug, but will share anything I find and hope you'll do the same...

I'm having the same exact issue....did you guys ever figure anything out or hear anything about this? Just got my t-mo G3 yesterday but I'm an avid MightyText user so I've definitely been noticing in. I haven't found anything else in my research either...tried clear data, cache, uninstall/reinstall, but it seems to be an issue with the phone.
I have no problems
I dont use this but my wife does and she doesn't appear to have any issues with it. She is using an completely stock samasung s5 not rooted or anything.
I'm not sure if this is from the last update or not but I cant send a text message using the watch. It comes up, says it sending, then it says "message sent" but when I look on my phone, I don't see massage that was sent. I'm using Google hangout out app for text.
I have reset the watch and still no luck.
Thoughts?
I think this is happening for me as well. I'm on att with nexus 5.
Hummm....Maybe it after this last update?
Yeah it definitely was after the last update.
Are you using google hangout?
Yes I'm.
Its weird, it freezes my phone when I send a text. I have hit the "home" button to unfreeze it. Does this happen to you? I tried to uninstall the update but it didnt help. I even tried a different launcher instead of NOVA and still happens.
i think my next step it rest the phone, but that is such a pain!
anyone else having these issues?
Me too here. Definitely after the update. It doesn't let me reply by voice. It sucks!

I did try using it on my other phone and it seemed to work fine even after the update. Im currently in the process of wiping out my phone and restoring it to see if it fixes the issue
factory wipe and restoring with TB fixed my issue.:laugh::good:
Moto 360 and S3, Me Too...
I have just spent the most frustrating 2 days trying to get my wife's Moto 360 to send text messages.....it wont. All I get is to be told to use the phone... which loses the point of getting her the watch in the first place. It will send e-mails, but wont reply to them, it recieves texts and emails OK... and everything else works fine... I've tried everything I could think of, uninstalling, reinstalling, wiping phone cache etc, tried Hangouts, but nothing seems to work. I'm left thinking that maybe it could be the S3 operating system that is somehow blocking this? ...or maybe the standard messaging app on the Galaxy? if that's the case, is there an alternative ......that works properly! ? or could it be the mobile provider (it's 3).....or is this a UK thing?
And finally....HELP, HELP !!!!
mine works even after latest update... reply whatsapp.. but currently im looking for some kind of keyboard.. any suggestion?
So recently I've had an issue with SMS/MMS on my 2XL, it seems some messages are just not getting through to my phone. About 2 months back I had an issue where about 90% of the time I would go to text one specific contact (wife), the messages app (stock app) would crash or hang for an incredibly long period of time. This persisted for a few weeks of many clear cache/revert to old version of app/etc. Finally I just backed up the SMS, cleared all the messages, and then restored them and that seemed to have fixed the problem.
Now, I am missing text messages (per verbal conversation) from a couple of contacts (mom, wife, best friend). It seems 90% of them are coming in but then randomly a few won't make it, which I only discover because the conversation doesn't make sense or I never get a reply and then when we speak in person or on the phone they say "no, I responded immediately, you didn't get the message". The only thing these 3 contacts have in common is that they are probably the most common people I text by far, and the thread of messages is quite long at this point. I also don't know if I am missing messages from other contacts or groups because the whole I don't know what I don't know thing. I also now am getting a few random crashes of the messaging app each day, again it seems when texting my wife.
Anyone else experience this? It's pretty frustrating - figuring it may be a time for a total factory reset and start over but if this is a known issue with a known fix, I would love to avoid the hassle of setting the phone up again.
before factory reset
force stop
delete all data
uninstall all updates
reinstall the app.
I had the same issue but it turned out to be carrier related.
Thanks for the response, was it the same issue with just random messages here and there not making it, but most coming through? Which carrier? I am on AT&T so I will reach out to them as well.
