Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone here gets the same issue. When i get a MMS and click on it, well for some reasons and sometimes it just shows me the previous one i saw, i mean even from another conversations ! I have to go back to the list , enter into the right conversation and click on the MMS again .

Using a third party like go sms handscent or chomp SMS is fine but i really want to fix this.
Stock rom 4.1.2, no root
Thanks
I'm going to start off with some background information. I have been using the SMS app Handcent for a little while now, and it has been giving me a lot of trouble with MMS messages with them not sending nor receiving, whereas the stock messaging app could receive them.
Alright, and now we are into where I screwed up... I read that if you made the stock messaging app a user app and handcent a system app, then the permissions will correct and I would be able to send/receive the MMS messages. However, when I made the stock messaging app a user app, it deleted itself. I figured it wouldn't be so bad after I got handcent to work, but handcent still doesn't receive/send MMS messages, and I have no way of sending/receiving them because the stock messaging app got deleted. So, I was wondering if there was a way to get back my stock messaging app for Android 4.1.2. If anyone could help me fix the handcent thing as well, that would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time!
Hi,
I am having issues with SMS messages not appearing in third party applications.
I am on
HTC One M8 (UK) Vodafone
Android 5.0.1
Sense 6.0
ROM Stock 4.19.161.2
For only a few contacts, I get SMS messages for them and they only appear in the stock HTC messaging app. I use Google Hangouts normally. I can always see the full conversation in the Stock app but other third party ones don't show the full conversation. I have tried Handcent and Textra as well, all behave like Hangouts and don't see the messages.
I deleted all SMS to clear out what I had, there is also a single SMS from one contact where I cannot open or delete their message but I can see the first few lines or so in the preview window. This leads me to believe the SMS db is corrupt or something. This may be related but the not being able to delete has been something recent and the not getting the 3rd party apps to see certain messages has been happening for a while.
I hope someone can help, really bugging me now.
I am on Stock at present, device is not rooted and I have not altered the bootloader etc.
Thanks
Jason
Hello XDA,
BACKGROUND
Last night I downloaded and installed the latest OxygenOS OTA (4.0.2) for Nougat 7.0 (stock). I noticed that the Messages (the actual name of app) app was different. It looks like the developers made some enhancements to the Messenger (actual name of the old app) app. I like the look of the new app and thought I'd give it a try. After the upgrade, the old Messenger app was still the default app. I noticed that the Messages app would only allow me to view my texts. In the Messages app, there was a prompt for me to change my default texting app from Messenger to Messages. This allowed me to send texts via the new app.
ISSUE
When sending a MMS message through the latest Messages app, the message is being transformed to SMS. Meaning, my texts get sent out individually to the recipients - even though my Messages app shows my text in a group when looking at it on my phone.
I tried to do some research on Google but could not find a solution. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Do you have your MMS APN installed in your phone? If not, add it manually or request it from your operator and reboot the phone.

Hmm, I would not have thought that the APN would have been reset. It was working prior to the OTA update. But anything is worth a try. I will look into this and get back to you.

I have the same thing going on although not the MMS issue as all my apn settings remained unchanged. I am confused about why I now have the pre 4.0.2 Messenger app and now also have Messages since 4.0.2 update. Why is this and how does it get fixed so I only have one app for sms/mms.
Thanks all!

Jay, are you saying that you were able to use the latest Messages app and still able to send and receive MMS?
I could not get the new Messages app to send/receive MMS. I gave up and reverted back to the older Messenger app. I went into settings>apps>messages and force stopped the application. Then I disabled it. The old Messenger app works fine.

James,
I just was able to receive a picture with no issues. I went into the Messenger app and disabled receiving messages through settings and then made sure Messages was able to receive via settings as well. I didn't do any disabling of apps, etc. I ha entirely used the new Messages app much as of yet but it looks decent.
Anyone have reasons as to why the new update added a new app for sms/mms rather then just replace the previous one?
Hi with your new software update in the messaging app i only recieve text cant send outgoing text.please fix this. I want the old version. I m stuck not being able to send outgoing sms frm my phone.
Thanks poornima
I am running Nougat 7.1.1 on Moto Z2 Play, and using the stock messages app. Recently, my contact photo has disappeared from my text messages. Images from my other contacts display fine, mine is the only one missing. Is this a phone problem or a Google problem?
