Well... To begin, I'm unrooted, and use Handcent as my only sms/mms messenger.
My last phone was the Evo 3D, rooted with the stock rom. Unsure if that has something to do with it or not.
I used to send MMS while in a call all the time with my 3D without issue. I can only assume that it was sending over wifi. I was/am always connected to my wifi at home, where I typically am on the phone and trying to send MMS at the same time.
For some reason, on my One, it has to wait until I'm off of a call before it sends MMS. SMS goes through just fine.
Any ideas, suggestions?
Nothing? ^^;
Just wondering if anyone can figure this out. Boggling my mind, and a little irritating, since I used to be able to on my old phone.

Maybe it's the way Sprint does talk + data, because on my One on AT&T I am able to send and receive texts while I am on a call.
Well... I can send and receive texts during a call just fine, whether I'm on WiFi or network. It's just MMS that doesn't seem to download, or send for that matter, while I'm in a call.
I suppose I can understand not being able to send images through SMS while in a call, but I used to be able to at least do it while in a call and on WiFi with my Evo 3D. Just don't know why it should be different with the One.

for the past few weeks i've been having trouble receiving some texts, i dont know what's happening.. I have an app called Mighty Text which allows me to sms from a computer or tablet. When using the app i realize that i get all my texts in the browser but my phone only alerts me about some sms received and neither do they show up the the stock messaging app...:crying::crying:
with this i have come to think that it's not the network causing the problem.. what else could be the problem?.
I'm currently on SlimBean 3.1 and i'm really loving this rom and would prefer not having to change roms...

It's not a ROM problem but a app or carrier problem. Your carrier most likely won't send your texts at 2 different places (unless specifically said). And when the app is on, you probably allow it to have priority over your text, therefor, it receives them instead of your phone.
Some carriers have apps like those on pc which will let you get your texts and such on both pc and your phone but I believe it has to be made by the carrier to allow it.

Been using my phone for a little over two weeks and texting just stopped working the other day. It can send texts but cannot receive them. I have 2 lines 2 phones. When I switch the sim card from the s4 active to my other phone texting works fine sending and receiving. When I use the sim from the other phone and put it in my s4 active it can send but not receive texts so I don't believe it's a issue with my service. It was rooted on MF3. I unrooted and did factory reset and texting issues still persist. Everything worked fine until the other day when I realized no one was texting me back. Mobile data is on. The phone can make and receive calls it can send texts just cannot receive. I use chomp sms but dont think it's the app since the stock messaging app isn't giving me any luck either. Can't figure this out
Update!
Lol just a few minutes after posting this question the phone lit up and all the texts I hadn't received yet just came flooding in. Switched sim cards back over and everything seems to be working fine again. Time to restore my backup yay I love this phone again lol :good:
Just noticed this morning when texting the wife
The 6.0 update included rcs for the stock messaging app
Works over WiFi calling and video calling works as well
I've seen people report this but whenever I tried it's just the same regular one as L. Does it only work over WiFi calling? But switched to cm now so I guess it doesn't matter.
RCS?
Yes, I'm curious, what is RCS?
Rich communication services (T-Mobile advanced messaging) its similar to imessage or WhatsApp just allows you to see when someone has read or is typing also allows for sending of larger MMS sizes I believe.
It must only work between G4's because i only see it when texting my friend who has one but nobody else.
My wife has a galaxy s5 and I can see it when she's texting me and she also see's it when I'm texting her.
hmmm, I wonder why mine doesn't work with others. Maybe i need to do a reset, since my wifi is acting up also.
It only works with other devices that have the RCS update.
How can you turn RCS off? I like to ignore sms messages frequently and don't want the sender to know I'm not getting back right away.

On Messeges go to Settings/ Advanced settings and there you can turn off these options

Hi all, strange issue and have researched to death and can't find a fix. I recently flashed a EPG2 ROM and noticed that I can't receive texts from specifically from other T-Mobile users using the STOCK messenger with advanced messaging. I can receive all other texts, and everyone receives all of my texts. If a problematic user sends me a text from any other texting app I get it, just not the stock app. The ONLY WAY for me to get their text is to also be on the stock app and on LTE or Wifi. Otherwise the text never hits my phone. I don't even get the old texts, only the ones they're actively sending. On their end it doesn't say delivered unless I've actually got it. They always get my text however, regardless of where I send it from (stock or third party) I don't know why they're phones keep trying to send me an advanced message when I'm not using advanced messaging, previously it would just come through as a standard text.
Some steps I've taken:
Updated modem and baseband and BL to EPG2
Turned on and off VoLTE (issue persists either way)
Narrowed issue down to t-Mobile users using stock samsung messenger on any Samsung Galaxy device
Verified I am able to receive texts on LTE and Wifi while in Stock messenger only
I would love some other minds on this, I'm trying to avoid another wipe. Thanks!:good:
Hey everyone. I just got my global unlocked Mi Mix (6gb, 256gb), and I can't receive texts. I'm on At&T, and I'm getting 4g VoLTE all the time. I can send texts, and I can make and receive calls, but I'm not getting any texts that are sent to me. I've tried switching to 3g, and I've tried the stock messaging app, Google Messenger, and Textra. Nothing has fixed the problem. I really want to keep this phone, but I have to be able to receive texts.
Anyone have suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I have this same problem. To make matters worse - mine happens intermittently too. For example, sometimes I could be texting someone and receive some of their texts, then suddenly a few texts in I no longer get their responses. Not sure what's going on.
I suspect it has to do with the Contact Manager APK, but not sure how or why.

Are you on ATT? And if this is a software issue, putting on a custom ROM might resolve it. I guess.
I've got texting working now. I did two things and I don't know which is the solution.
First, I put my sim in an ATT phone I had laying around. I sent some texts and took some calls on that phone. Then I put the sim back in my phone while wifi was turned off. I did this whole thing because I saw a thread on an ATT forum regarding the same SMS issue but with a different phone. The ATT moderator suggested doing those steps.
Second, I downloaded Pulse and set it as my default SMS app. So far, texting is now working without any problems.
I cannot receive sms
