Curious to see what others with the Sprint SIII have encountered with this app. I love my sms/hangouts in one that I am excited about.. But I'm having some weird issues that were not present prior to the app's installation..
I'll be on WiFi and sending a photo MMS will send.. Other times it will NOT send even though WiFi is on and functioning. Instead, I have to enable mobile data. Things get weird here. The 3g/1x icon will show while the WiFi icon is showing in my status bar. WAT?
This seems to be the only issue that I've found so far. My only real gripe with it is that it does not support long SMS (yet).
What are all your thoughts on it and have you encountered the same or different problems?
So far I've loved hangouts. I do notice that on wifi, there's a slight lag when converting to mms and then changing to 4g, but I never lose connection.
Maybe try disabling SMS and then reactivating?

Have you found a way to add a widget for hangouts? That would be more better

Hi all,
I cant seem to be able to receive Picture messages on my phone. Ive used the original Messaging App and Handcent SMS and i get the same thing in both. It just says downloading and nothing happens.
Anybody else have this issue?

Are you trying to download using WIFI or 3G?
If WIFI, try switching to 3G to see if it works.
That does not work either...
I'm sorry, then probably we'll wait if the others have any ideas, because that switch to 3g worked for me.

I figured it out...
There is an option in the Stock messaging app "Auto-Retrieve" that was not on... as soon as i enable it i got my pictures!
It seems like whenever I flash a sense rom and start texting, the outgoing messages are okay but the recieved messages are always an 2-3 hours behind. Is this just me or is there a fix for this?
I feel like its a sprint tower issue. I'm constantly roaming at my house so I always get delayed messages or texts showing a different time

I have this issue EVERYTIME I receive a text while roaming. Never fails.
I have this problem with all Sense ROMs I have flashed, and I am a flashaholic. To get around this, I have just installed Go SMS Pro, which is better than the stock messaging app anyway. Any third-party SMS app should have the option to fix this as well.
I've had this problem on a couple occasions from what it sounds like... It does not sound like an app problem it sounds more like a service problem... When I called sprint to inform them of the issue they sent "refreshes" to my phone and it cleared up the problem almost instantly

Checkyour settings and make sure to enable data while roaming. I think most roms have it disabled by default.
it's some sort of tower issue. It happens to me occassionally when I travel around. Cricket is my provider but it uses Sprint towers I beleive.
I use a tiny free app from the market called SMS Time Fix when I see it happen.
Hey guys,
I have since the beginning with this phone had issues with receiving MMS messages from other AT&T customers, I have not modified it whatsoever all stock APN and settings in that regard. I get a message with the pop up showing "downloading" and its a 32kb file it downloads the text they included with the mms, and shows it switched modes to MMS in the blurb around the text message in the messaging app, but no picture comes through, sometimes if they send it twice it will send the picture but not every time. Anybody else see this? any ideas?
Having same problem... I've tried resetting the apn (even though it's the default and hasn't been messed with) and I'm now using hangout.

Yes...
Always patchy on stock MMS...
If you have not cleared your caches in recovery since owning the device...you probably should...
Updates have occured ...and your caches may be dirty...
Also wipe the application cache in the app drawer frequently...g

Apparently I'm still having the same issue even with hangouts... :-\
Update: called the store and after tests it was concluded that the imei was incorrect so the store will be sending out a replacement.

I'm using Martian Initiative ROM, and I've been having a couple of problems across the board in terms of ROMs.
First off, my phone refuses to send or receive text messages and phone calls at certain points. Only waiting 4-8 hours pushes all the texts through, or restarting my phone.
But seeing how it doesn't alert me that a message hasn't been sent, it's usually a good half hour before I notice.
Second issue, sometimes GoSMS and stock SMS show no messages in the inbox. Can't send messages. Received messages lead to blank template screens - similar to creating a new message.
Anyone else experienced this?
Solid 4 - 5 bar 4G LTE.

I have not had those issues on his ROM or any others. Try a fresh install.

I have had the issue with calls not going through. Update PRL & Profile fixes the issue for me every time.

I haven't had issues sending or receiving texts, but I have had massive slow downs using the stock messaging app. Like my OG Evo would run circles around this thing kind of slow. It lags sending the message, then I can't go back and my keyboard sticks on the screen. It just has very laggy behavior that I think is unacceptable for a phone of this caliber. It doesn't happen with a different messaging app though.

Im on TMobile and I had the axon 7 before this, and I never had any problems sending or receiving MMS over WiFi before. On the 5z it seems to hang and sometimes never get delivered. I've had a couple instances where I'm missing SMS that were sent to me as well.
Are there any settings on the phone I can adjust to help with this that I may be overlooking? I'm using the textra app and went through all the mms settings still the same issue
