Some come tru others dont unless people add text to pic
Some of my MMSs won't download either. I never thought of it being related to whether or not there's text with them before but will keep an eye out.
I thought it might be limited to MMSs from particular contacts so keeping an eye on that and will tidy up my contacts details if needed.
The two I successfully received from my wife had text in them. The one I got from my buddy had no text, and I couldn't download the pic in that one. I then sent one to my wife with no text, but she said she got it, so I don't know what the situation is. My buddy's which didn't come through was sent from TMo > VZN, whereas my wife and I each have the GNex so perhaps it's a content + carrier combination.

Try turning on your lte radio, see if maybe its a network issue?
"unfortunately, the process com.handcent.nextsms has stopped"
definately a weird issue
Aye I've received 2 MMSs from people on AT&T. One worked (it was a video), the other didn't (picture). I had to hold-click on the message and say "Download Attachment", then browse to the file using Astro to see it.
Haven't tried sending any yet...
Anyone come up with a fix? or do we have to wait for google?
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.

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 have the T-Mobile variant and cannot get Android messages to work. Notifications don't show in the status bar and no sound. Texts come through, but I have no idea when they do. Is anyone else with the T-Mobile version having this issue. It's driving me crazy that I can't figure it out, and I've tried everything I know how to do to get it to work.

I can't figure it out so I gave up and I'm doing the same. Stock app it is until maybe someone figures it out
I'm having the same issue. Issue started happening for me yesterday. Not sure what's causing it.
From my experience, this is happening due to T-Mobile's RCS/Advanced Messaging. I too installed Android Messages, and found that when on Wi-Fi I do not receive notifications alerts from incoming messages, when on mobile data it's fine. Sadly disabling the stock messaging app didn't solve the issue, and you can't disable RCS services. Also, this only occurs when messaging other T-Mobile Android devices equipped with RCS support. So I get T-Mobile iPhone and other carrier SMS since they aren't being sent as a RCS message. Try it out and see if it's the same for you, but this has been my conclusion, the system doesn't alert you cause RCS isn't a standard SMS reply.

Honestly I gave up. I can't get it to work at all. Almost everyone I know has T-Mobile, and even the people that don't I still get no notification. The stock one is ok and it's pretty much Android messages it just lacks some of the customization options. Stock also doesn't support GIF insertion from the keyboard. Just weird that all the other RCS compatible phones I have had before never had this issue. I was using Android messages on my s8+ without any issues.

Understandable. I too wanted to use it for GIF support. I'm hoping it gets fixed in am update. I actually submitted feedback to Lenovo being an ambassador for the device at my job. So here's hoping.
Maybe try this, it says it activates all the advanced features from the carriers in it Android messages. I don't get many texts so I haven't had a chance to try it out.

This only works with carriers who opt to use universal RCS profile. Sadly, T-Mobile uses its own version of RCS. Sprint uses universal, so that would work with Android Messages on Sprint.
T-Mobile is working on support. Some places are rumored to already having it working. By this here it should be out for everyone by end of 2017.

I have a Pixel 2 XL with Android 8.1. I recently moved to Join from Pushbullet because messages sent from the PC were not syncing with my phone text app (Android Messages.) But the same thing is happening with Join in that I'll send a message via the Chrome Extension and the other person gets it but on my phone, I never see what I sent via Join. I'm guessing this might be either an Android Messages problem, 8.1 problem or a combo of both.
Yesterday, I got one to sync and that was it. If it matters, it was a single line message. But then tried a one word reply to someone and it didn't sync.
And just now, I sent a new message (started as a new message in Join in Chome to my nieces). One went through and synced to my phone but the other didn't.
I'm hoping it is something I just need to check and change.
This may not be a show stopper to some but if this is an 8.1 thing, I may need to go back to my Note 8. Hate to do that because I'm really enjoying my Pixel 2 XL and 8.1
Any suggestions?

I use Mighty Text and it works just fine. I send SMS/MMS all the time (several times per day) and have not had a problem with it on 8.0 or 8.1. This is split between using both Firefox and Chrome. I can see text/pics sent on my Messages app on the phone. What carrier are you with? I'm on AT&T.
I'm on Verizon. I thought about firing up my Note 8 to see if problem is there too. Only had this problem on 8.1
While I never had any issues with it, I got away from pushbullet long ago.
if you are open to it, perhaps check out using something like Pulse. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xyz.klinker.messenger
Works across just about every platform.

This is one of the reasons I left Pushbullet and tried Join. But sadly, the problem still existed on the Pixel XL 2. Pushbullet support didn't ever respond and Join Support said it might be a problem with Android Messages. Beyond removing updates on Android Messages or trying a factory reset on my Pixel 2 XL, I've been at a loss to what to do. I'd try Pulse but I think the same problem may exist.

Maybe an APN issue? Try comparing your APN with another Verizon user. FDR seems a bit harsh for this, but I think it is safe to rule out an issue with 8.1 or Messages because it is working for just about everyone else.

I meant the settings within the APN, particularly the MMS. You'll need to compare with another Verizon user and what is published online. If there is more than one (I have 3) try using a different one. Do you have another phone on your plan? Check that one.
Considering the other party is receiving the messages, it sounds more like a display issue with Messages to me. Join/Pushbullet/etc. don't actually send the messages, they just relay them to your phone and your phone sends them. So they must be making it to your phone if the other party is getting them.

I use Textra and still have the same problem. From my investigating, the only message that doesn't sync is the first one I send from Join to initiate a new conversation. From then on, all messages sync. Just my first outgoing one doesn't.

Rather than paying monthly for Pushbullet Pro, I paid the one time fee for Join, so I haven't used Pushbullet for a while. I haven't used all of the features of Join yet, but it looks like it can do a lot more than Pushbullet and it's cheaper.
Plus another factor that may affect my experience vs yours is:
I'm mainly using Pushbullet to see texts people send me on my other phone numbers, on a different phone..I rarely use the desktop interface (though I do have it active when I am on my laptop)
So maybe that's why my experience is different from yours
I also noticed that texts sent to short codes that have 5 digits, don't work on Android messages well...I noticed that the Text gets sent, and the service responds, but the message doesn't come through on Android messages... Only on another text app.(ex: your bank)
My point is that Android messages has issues on 8.1 that it didn't on earlier versions and I'm wondering if that's affecting services like Pushbullet in weird ways.
Sorry for the off topic.. But it's sort of related

I mentioned earlier that Mighty Text has never had an issue with Messages. All text and pictures sent from the PC are captured in Messages with no missing/dropped/failed messages. Free version has a 200 message limit that I have only hit once. I use it on my Wi-Fi tablet as well.
I had some weird issues with Join and Android Messages on my 2XL. Sprint Network. Sometimes received messages would show in join but not in messages and other times sent items through join weren't showing in messages. It was sporadic and not consistent. Eventually I turned Android Messages off from battery saving (doze) and I haven't had a problem since.
Sooo I got the phone last Thursday and am using it on Verizon. I've had a few issues that I figured I'd throw a thread together incase anyone else has the same...
Known Issues that I have:
"GroupMe" application will not update unless I am in the application and clicking on a specific chat. - Worked on every other phone I have and cant even find anything on this subject on google. If someone sends a message in a chat it will not update or notify me. I have to click on the specific chat for it to update. I've reinstalled the app 3 times and cleared the cache. un-optimized it with battery settings, nothing is working.
Fixed Issues that I have:
Phantom vibration. - Almost like a notification is happening but nothing is showing on the screen. Cant figure out this one for the life of me. I even have a notification log downloaded and it just vibrates away with nothing being logged.
Found out it was Verizon Caller ID app. Apparently it keeps crashing and "starting" over and over again. I disabled notifications on it and the vibration went away!
MMS Cannot be received only sent. - I've gone through this extensively with Verizon support. Tried everything on another thread, switched out sim blah blah blah, finally they have opened a ticket with the engineers and will get back to me in 48 hours.
Works now in default app just not android messages......................................
Anyone else having any other issues?
That's disappointing that there are mms issues. MMS on the U11 using anything but the stock messaging app was a complete ****show. I hope you can get more bands than just 13 as well.

Someone on Android Central had Verizon block messaging and then re-add it for everything to work. Maybe worth a shot?
Same here... Unlocked US model. Send but not receive texts...
I've done the same, reset, new SIM, swapped Sims etc.
I'll take a look on AC and see if they have something there for a solution... Thanks for the heads-up. Glad I'm not alone.

I have found that Android messages app doesn't work as you can't select the preferred sim for messages. Having to use stock at the moment.
Somewhere in another thread, there was an adb command I think that set and enforced the default sim slot. Wonder if that would help with your issue, Nestacres? Sorry, I would search myself and link but just checking in on a quick break at work.

Android Messages isn't comiled for usage with Dual-SIM, as Google Nexus/Pixel phones are all Single-SIM devices. If you know how to use adb you cand do the following:
From adb shell run the following command
Code:
adb shell settings put global multi_sim_sms 1
This did the trick on the U11 DUGL as well, and Android Messages could be used and worked just fine. Thanks to @Electronic Punk for pointing that one out to me!

It actually works great with dual sim, for some reason HTC left out the default SMS sim option out on Oreo (simply doesn't exist in settings.apk anymore) and only left the data one. Fortunately that fix is basically a fire and forget, once it sees a default it has no issue picking between them.
HTC handle it differently on phone and SMS as they have a button for each sim.

I did everything possible. Even got a new SIM... What seemed to do the trick (and was the last thing I did) was having Verizon block my messages and then unblock them.
Then I could send + receive. Beforehand I could only Send... But beware it does not work with Android Messages.

How did you first activate your phone? If it's not activated properly on Verizon it can fry your SIM card or cause things to not work.
I first swapped my SIM from my U11 and could not make calls but was able to use internet and send and receive text and mms. But just like the U11, I can only receive MMS on the stock apps like HTC messaging and Verizon message+. Cannot receive MMS on third party apps.
But the proper way to activate the U11 and U12+ is to first register your imei with Verizon then you have to transfer your SIM from a Verizon device that has advanced calling/VoLTE in the settings.
The U12+ does not have any Verizon advanced calling or VoLTE setting so if you just pop a new SIM in without first having it activated on a Verizon advanced calling device, it could cause problems and fry your SIM card.
It sucks but that is the best way to activate it.
Manually attached IMEI to SIM, and toggled messages/on/off on my account.
All is well and working for receiving SMS/MMS on stock messages! It worked immediately...
Thanks for the feedback and discussion everyone.

In my case, after updating (purely, after RUU) to v1.21.401.3 I have noticed a few times that after picking up the device and "squeezing" I should wake up, scan my face and unlock my smartphone (I have my preferences set) .
But just the few times after "squeezing" the device does not react at all, there is no vibration.
After the traditional unlocking (applying the finger to the fingerpront or pressing the POWER button) the smartphone wakes up properly.
This happens when the smartphone is not used for a long time (deep sleep?).
But this is not the rule.
I also had ONE total reboot.
On the other hand, the update did not improve in the first few months the best inflections of the volume up button (Vol +). Very often you have to press many times "to surprise", and pressing and holding it to turn up in series - is very difficult to achieve

Is anyone else having issues with the youtube app? Im finding it buggy. To be precise: if I start a video and then turn the phone landscape to go into fullscreen, if I then turn back the phone vertical and come out of fullscreen and then try minimise the still playing video it goes a bit haywire, parts of the screen goes grey and I can't minimise the video. Can any replicate?!

New issue thats bothering THE CRAP OUT OF ME!!!!
The phone isnt vibrating on incoming calls. I thought I just kept not feeling it or hearing it but nope, the phone literally turns the screen on and it just doesnt vibrate. I don't have battery saver on, and I don't have "Do not disturb" on. Its weird.

Discovered a slight work around since. It doesn't happen if you go in and out of fullscreen using little button in the bottom right. So it only happens with auto rotation.
