Need help,
I have a single contact with att pistpaid service and i have att prepaid gophone service. When i get a text or mms from him it fails to come through. His xontact picture shows as he had sent me something but i get a circle icon to touch and try to redownload. I do it multiple times but it fails and does not come through message or display photo. Have tried turning off phone, rebooting phone, adding new text app but no luck. I always got his texts and mms w note 5 and messenger app. Pixel xl suppirt was not able to help. The error message below the message when it fails to download says 209 B or 208 B.
Any help.will be appreciated.

Have you tried messaging each other on a different texting app?

Problem solved. It was messenger app. Uninstalled it and installed textra. Now the texts and mms for that contact come through.

Well I'm stuck in a group text from hell and I can't get out! Sometimes though the mms doesn't download and is really annoying. My first question is, Is this a network issue? My second question is how can I block these messages? I've tried a few apps and one worked for a while but stopped and they kept coming through.

You can always call sprint and have those number blocked and the messages or calls from those numbers won't come in at all. Or you can they root call blocker from the market.

To fix your mms problem go to Access Points then set your APN "1" THEN SAVE AND REBOOT THAT WILL FIX YOUR PROBLEM AMD THE GROUP MESSAGE JUST TELL THE PERSON WHO CREATED THE MESSAGE TO DELETE U FROM THE CONVO

The thing is we've all tried to get out at some point but nobody will let anyone escape its horror. That's why I need a blocker from the phone because I don't want to block the numbers completely from calling just the group text. Is access point in messaging settings?

I don't have that option under mobile network.
So I just got my HTC M8. Loving it, but noticed how text messages take a while to go through. Also, I tried that on stock messages app and also on google hangouts. It takes a bit of time for messages to go through compared to my iPhone 5S. Also, I restored all my text messages to the phone from my iPhone (complicated process) and the Messages app takes forever to load. Is this happening with anyone of you as well? Any work around?
have same issue on my m8 messages wont go through at all. did factory reset and it did not help. I had to go back to the m7 to get my texting back
my biggest gripe is how long it takes hangouts to load. not necessarily an issue with the m8 though. in regards to how slow it is for messages to go through the stock messaging app, it's just as fast as my note 3 and my gf's Z1. both take a few seconds to send messages.
what i found to work is changing the settings to sending all messages as high priority...not sure why it changes, but i haven't had an issue since i changed that setting. before that it would sit there for up to 30 seconds and then i'd get a message saying it didn't send...was having issues receiving texts as well.

it's only in the mms settings so it doesn't apply to regular texts.

Yea I only see it under MMS as well. Whatever, I converted my M8 into Stock Google. Now no complaints. And I don't miss sense.

same issue, wondering if the issue self fixed itself, im on my M7 until something can be resolved
I can't appear to directly reply to text messages on the watch for some reason ? I have the option (reply or send to phone) but when I choose reply, all that happens is a green check mark comes up and it doesn't do anything.
Anyone else have this or know what I'm doing wrong?

I have the same issue with the stock messaging app as well. I really want to avoid connecting Hangouts and Texting.. the people I talk to do not overlap at ALL.

Well even with Hangouts set for sms on my Moto X, the watch sends texts using the "Messaging" app. And, touching that app in recent apps sends the message again and again.
Also, sending a text to a number sends it to some inexplicably chosen contact. If they can't get it right with their own phone, I sure others will have problems as well. I have returned mine and will try again next year.
I have exactly the same problem. Did you get that one sorted? Works perfect when voice replying to email but sms with OS messaging software doesn't work.
Any Progress?

Exactly the same issue here. Haven't managed to find a fix. ...
try some other free sms apps.. the stock one doesn't work... i currently use chompsms and like it the most, only thing i can't get on android wear is picture text messages...
you can try textra, hello sms, or some other sms apps.. i recall trying those and i believe they work..
New Google messenger works great
Has anyone figured out how to edit the pre-written messages when rejecting a call from 360?
I looked at the ones on my GS5 and they do not match the one on Android Wear.
I keep hoping someone will say... Yes this is how you do it.....
You need to go into the phone dialer settings and select quick rejects option I believe.
Ian B
I think it's called quick responses...
Yep that's right it's changed on the phone - dialer/settings/quick responses

I have already changed them on my phone settings. I have a Galaxy S5. the reject messages that I set do not match the reject options on the moto 360.

No I haven't received my 360 yet. Just a thought I had.
Since the default sms app on s5 doesn't work on watch.. It's unlikely to work.. Did any one try similarly with the msg apps that work with wear

Did someone changed the deafault SMs? I bought Moto because of rejectng call on meeting and now it's useless.
Tried switching to default app. Has nothing to do with apps. Keep receiving
"Networkis unavailable. The message will be sent when the network is available pr pver WiFi if you are subscribed to Integrated Messaging."
I tried doing soft resets, deleting cache/data. Turned on wifi and the message comes up none stop. Turn it off and the message only comes on when i try to send a message. Cant find anything online.
Been rooted on 13B. Verizon. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems the service freezes. So to restart it I just placed a call since calls uses the same signal as text messages (regular texts not mms). Once the call went through it restarted the service and i was able to send/receive texts.
