Wondering if anyone else encountered this problem. I am no longer able to reply to text messages via the Zenwatch. Cards are only being presented like regular cards with only the options to open the app on the phone or block it. This is now happening using the native message app and GoSMS. I've tried resetting the watch and everything. Anyone experience this and was able to fix it?

I had the same problem. I downloaded Google messenger and now everything works fine.

Does Messenger have to be your default app?
I believe so.

I use Textra as my SMS app. On 4.4.4 Kit Kat, my AT&T Note 4 displayed contact pics pulled from Facebook in Textra. Yesterday, I updated, then factory reset the phone, then reinstalled all of my apps. Now Textra will not show any contact pictures, just their initials. The pis do come up in the contacts app and the Messages app.
I know that there was an issue with 3rd party apps having difficulty using facebook photos. But I thought that was an old issue. On Kit Kat, with no root or extra apps, Textra worked fine on my Note 4.
Have I missed a setting somewhere?

There were some strange problems with contact pictures not syncing on the nexus 5 and 6 on 5.0.1. The 5.1 update fixed these.
Not sure if this is the same problem, but thought i'd mention.
I use Textra as well and my Facebook contact photos show up just fine. You might have to relink your contacts or sync again in the Facebook app

FIXED!
I uninstalled Textra; and then reinstalled it. It is now working perfectly with all of the contact pics now showing.
Last night, I set up FB after using Textra. So I guess that was the problem. Good to know in case anyone else runs in to the problem.
Can anyone confirm Messenger working on a stock Lollipop ROM? My 851 can take pictures and videos from within the app but always fails when sending. The stock app and Textra work fine but GM is my favorite. I evewn tried installing older versions but still no dice. TIA

On a LG D693, yes, it works.
Have you tried installing the Google Camera app and making it the default camera app? This usually fixes that whole pictures/video crashing thing that happens with GM. Another thing, are you sending videos/photos to the External SD card?
I tried Google Camera which works fine but doesn't fix the Messenger issue. Messenger isn't crashing just won't send any type of attachment, internal to the app or external, it just says re-trying but fails. It will send a regular sms text. And I am using internal storage
Hi everyone,
Thanks for everything that everyone's been posting about the phone lately! I'm loving my HTC 10, however I noticed that my Messaging app is insanely slow when it comes time to type a reply or anything.
It seems like the keyboard is lagging whenever I'm typing a message, and this only happens in the messaging app when I'm typing in the message box. Is this the case with anyone else? Whenever I'm outside of the app, typing something is perfectly fine. I'm using Textra instead for the time being, but I just want to know if anyone else is having the same issue.
I've noticed the same thing as well. I've found that deleting all threads and starting fresh does help.

I've noticed this as well. I like using htc's messaging app so lets hope they release a fix soon.
I was just about to come on here to post the same thing! Something is definitely up with the stock messaging app. Typing is fine on other apps, but slow and laggy with the stock messaging app.
I'm also seeing the issue on the stock app, especially with Google keyboard.
I'm currently experiencing lag in any app that has typing. Tapatalk, Stock messenger, Google Messenger, Twitter, etc. Anyone else have this issue??

What keyboard are you using? I'm using SwiftKey, not the default keyboard. Also it may help your case by clearing the default keyboard app cache.

Google Keyboard and I've given that a shot. It's not a constant issue but it does happen frequently.

I use SwiftKey and also tried clearing my text messages, but typing is still very slow in the stock messaging app.
Anyone else still noticing this? I can't believe how laggy the keyboard is when typing in the messaging app.
Stock app is laggy
I use hangouts. no issues.
I've given up on the stock app due to lag and went with textra. After using it for a few days I actually wonder why I didnt make the switch awhile ago. It's a damn good messaging app. my favorite features by far are the quick reply and customization.
So this happened after the app update...wtf is this?
I have this same problem. I've noticed that it happens after I've used the Amazon music app. The only fix I've found was to force stop the Amazon music app and it clears these blank messages. I'm now on Android 8.0.0 and had this issue as well with the latest Android version 7, I was on. I have the Pixel 128gb on Verizon.
Its a problem with android messages
Yeah, I don't think it has anything to do with the Amazon music app running in the background anymore. Previously, when I saw the prompt that Amazon music was running in the background, if I started the messenger app, I got those blank threads and as soon as I force stopped Amazon music, the blank threads disappeared. Now, they stay and just go away on its own. Even with the recent update to messenger 2.5.211, it still does it.
It's definitely an issue with messenger.

Did you ever find a fix for this? I'm having the same issue.
I have this problem also after restoring the sms with the sms backup and restore. Basically the messages are there but I can't see them, only those ghost threads/messages and I cannot scroll down on the message list to see more of them.
same problem. here is what i did.
I downloaded hangouts and manually set it as default app for sms.
Then i opened up hangouts and went through all the threads that messenger wouldnt show.
Then i went back and forced stopped messenger, cleared data, and set it back as default.

Unfortunately the hangouts is not supporting sms anymore and is though unable to be set as a default sms app.

i have no idea why i had typed hangouts, must have been late. i meant to say verizon messages.
I got it working. Just disable the messages app and choose yes when it asks if you want to go back to factory app. Then clear cache and data and enable the app again. Then you can view all the messages. After this updating the app through play store is also safe and the messages remain visible.

I can't seem to login to Instagram. After login I get a blank screen and can only go back to login. I'm stock not rooted. I've tried clearing cache and data for Instagram and tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Still doesn't work. Anyone else had a similar issue?
I've also been having the same issue. Just got a GP2XL, it sucks. Bump!
Hopefully someone will save us....
Try using the folio app .
Blank screen on Instagram app.

I managed to fix mine.. if I recall, I had to login to Instagram on chrome browser first because it detected that "someone" else is trying to login.. once I did that.. miraculously the ig app worked. Let me know if that fixes it for you.

I had the same issue. And I fixed it by logging via facebook account, not typing my own instagram account.
