24A vs. 26A -- SMS Failures - Verizon LG G2

Since updating to 26A, I've been having numerous failures with sending and receiving SMS messages. They're being delayed up to about six hours in some cases.
Is anyone else having an issue?

I have... Thought it was T-Mobile issue. Guess it might not be.

you do realize that you just asked if anyone else had "these" issues and you never said what the issues were. That is an impossible question to answer without the ability to read your mind, which i don't have. i haven't experienced any issues that i'm aware of.
I'm having problems with it syncing when it's supposed to. It seems like most of the time I have to manually sync it. I don't think it's a 4.4 problem necessarily since my s4 on 2 different custom roms don't seem to have this problem.

There's a known issue with ActiveSync in 4.4. I think the Nexus devices just got 4.4.1 which includes a fix for this. Shouldn't be to long for the Moto X

I'm having the same issue. my exchange email won't work on the moto x while it's working fine on 4.4 htc one or a widows phone.
Not exactly what you were looking for but I switched to Touchdown on the X and am very happy with it. Just a thought, it's obviously not cheap and can be a little bit clunky going through options, but for actual use (not to mention lack of battery drain) I'm pretty impressed.

S5 From Iphone

Greetings all. Im here trying to help out a friend.
He and his gf have had iPhone's for quite some time. They just recently both upgraded to the S5. Ive never had an iPhone, currently on a Note 3 and on Verizon so I couldn't really help them hence I am here.
Anyway they're having some serious problems sending and receiving group messages. Specifically from their S5 to other iPhone's. They either don't even get responses or get responses individually as apposed to in the group thread. On top of that they're constantly being prompted to download messages as if they were mms. I've also sent him a picture and they only get any error message stating it could not be downloaded. They're both completely stock, phones are 2 days old.
Any help would be appreciated. Just checking here in case anyone else is seeing or have heard of these issues. Thanks again.

From what I understand, it is because of their prev iphones (if that makes sense). With the Iphones, msgs were being sent through there servers first, then out again. I have a bud on my hockey team, that he recently had an iphone and switch the S5, and had the same problem. I cant recall what he has done since then to fix the issue.You may get a better answer on her before I could ask him to see what he has done.

If they did not changethey numbers, they have to unregister they iPhones from iTunes account. They messages trying to send and receive thru iMessage that why they have problems.
Swiping from dark side of Galaxy S5.
agreed, part of the problem is a known issue with the iMessage service not "letting go" of numbers that are no-longer iPhones, sounds like deregistration via iTunes may help.
I had previously disabled use of iMessage completely on my account before I left the iPhone behind so I didn't have the problem (unreliable data service in my area for my iPhone so actual SMS was better, waaaay better).
I've also seen issues sending MMS to friends from my S5 ... and my wife, who has an HTC One M7 ... and the upshot was that the pictures I was sending were too big for the target handset to be able to get. I had to reduce the size of the image I was sending to make it go through w/o issue.
If most of a person's pictures are shared online I'd advocate setting the default camera resolution appropriately, instead of the default full-megapixel-glory, in order to have the least issues.
Yeah just call Apple customer support and have them deauthorize your Apple ID from iMessage. I had to do the same thing before. Had an M8, went back to iPhone 5S, then, I knew I was swapping for an S5 in like a day, so the day before turned off iMessage in settings, and then called Apple to deactivate. Since they've already switched, once they deactivate it'll take about 8-12 hrs(they'll tell you 24-48, but it never takes that long) and stuff will start flowing again

Duplicate texts on T-Mobile?

Is anyone else experiencing this? Seems to be only when I'm on mobile and from T-Mobile users only.
Yeah, I am.. Its getting annoying now.. I thought it was because I side loaded the update but then today I flashed the whole system images and still.. I do want to try and call T-Mobile and restart the network for me. Maybe that will help..
Sent from my Nexus 6
I am having the same issues and I just got this 2 days ago and now. Some people not everyone is "double" texting me its very annoying. On 5.1 I might flash back to a previous rom if I have to. I know Sprint users were having this issues but it wasn't an issue until 5.1 at least I didn't have it long enough to notice.
Edit
I am getting doubles from Verizon and T-Mobile users.
Edit 2 7:55 EST
I called a T-Mobile rep not sure I can trust them as far as I can throw them. I was informed that it is a Network issue plaguing random people and multiple devices including iPhones as well. So we will see how true that hold going to download and reflash the 5.0.1 rom and see if it works.

Did the T-Mobile rep say that we had to do anything or they would fix on the back end for everyone?

There was nothing that we needed to do. Keep in mind it could have just been the same stuff we get fed to get us off the phone. So take it with a grain of salt. Phone is almost charged back up to 50% so I will flash 5.0.1 to see if thats the issue when its charged enough.
This is a random issue of T-Mobile. I've experienced it from time to time. Sometimes I get doubles, doesn't matter whom the carrier, or I'm told I'm sending doubles. Their customer service either plays dumb, or says to do random things that won't help the fix in any way.

Been with T-Mobile for over 2 Years, With my Nexus 4 5 and now 6 and am I not sure if its T-Mobile or my new Nexus 6 but on my other devices though multiple stock roms and custom roms I have never had the issue I am having today.
Thanks for creating this thread, I am also experiencing this on T-Mobile.
So update again. I know I am posting a lot sorry for that. So still on 5.1 no re-flashing yet and the duplicate texts seemed to have stopped.
Edit
Annnnnd its back fml
Thank you for the thread. Issue started right after I fastboot flashed 5.1. Tried clearing data on both Google messenger and Hangouts but issue persists. Very annoying. I'll keep trying stuff.
---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:29 PM ----------
And it is indeed from other T-Mobile users only
Flashed back to 5.0.1 Not sure if its a timing issue but no duplicates yet
Guys would you mind testing something for me?When I uncheck advanced LTE services in the cellular network services the issue seems to stop.
I am still on 5.0.1 with updated radio/bootloader and I m experiencing the same thing.
Test 1-5 are done without advanced LTE services
Test 6 and 9 with LTE advanced on
Has anyone tried 5.1 with the older radio? Maybe the new is causing an issue.

I unchecked Enhanced 4G LTE, and the duplicate SMS issue stops. Confirmed it via self-SMS and SMS between me and a friend who's running 5.1 on a Nexus 5.
Yeah the issue disappeared for me as well. I wonder if it's a Google mistake, or if we need additional files from T-Mobile.
Also getting duplicate texts here on T-Mobile. Does anyone know if restoring back to my stock backup would resolve? Or can I restore that, and then flash the old radio/bootloader?
Try it.. It wouldn't hurt

I'm getting duplicate texts too. Seems like they are only from people with iPhones.

MMS Issues

My wife and I have been having issues with group texting since we got these phones. What usually happens is she'll receive a MMS and it won't download. I'm coming from a Nexus 6 and she from an HTC One M8, but for some reason it's much worse on her phone than it is on mine. We activated the SIM card that came with the phone. We've tried all the obvious things: resetting APNs, clearing data on the messaging app, using a different app, trying with VoLTE on and off (which I heard worked with the Z3). There's been an open ticket with T-Mobile for two weeks which hasn't really gone anywhere. It seems to happen no matter who the group text originates from. We have both iPhones and Androids in the chat.

I was having the same issues with group MMS on my G4. Girlfriend has a G4 as well and the same issues. I absolutely loved my G3 but the G4 has been one disappointment after another. I went and bought another S6 a couple days ago and the MMS issues are completely gone (had an S6E before the G4 without the issues also). I really want to like the G4 but until there's root at a minimum it's going to be sitting on my desk unused. It lags, the damn Hangouts has stopped message, the MMS issues, the lack of control over bluetooth messaging access (which was present in the G3 as well but fixed via xposed).

I'm really trying to hang on and hope that they fix it. And the screen issue. I'm starting to get tempted to switch back to my Nexus and maybe get my wife an S6 also.

Well an update... T-Mobile replaced the phone. It's been less than a day but the new one is fine so far. It might be an LG thing though... We found out someone else in our group chat was having the same issues. She's on an LG G4 Stylo.

I hope that fixes it for you, my gf is still suffering from the same issue. Hopefully root will be available soon and I'll switch back to mine.
I'm having the same issue as well, this wasn't a problem on my HTC m8 so it must be a LG thing.

So it seems I have another MMS issue. Some of the messages I never receive. I don't know if that's a network issue or what, but my phone will show no indication of receiving a message but looking at my wife's phone I'll see that there is a new message.

Yeah I was having that issue as well. Since I've moved back to my S6 and my girlfriend has stuck with the G4 I've tested that a lot along with comparing a couple group MMS that we're both in and it's quite frequent that she not only gets the unable to download error but messages don't even come through at all. I've turned off wifi calling on her phone for days at a time to see if that sorts it out but it doesn't. Tried adding an APN with 80 as the MMS port as well which used to solve a lot of MMS issues on TMo but that didn't do any good either. I haven't gotten rid of my G4 yet but the case against it is building :/

Yea I just tried the port 80 trick along with flipping it to IPv4/IPv6 to see if it makes any difference. I really want to like this phone but stuff like this is getting old. I'm also tired of being on the phone with T-Mobile Tech support... Lol. My wife's replacement G4 seems to be doing better in this regard but I don't know if the issues are going to come back.

Same issues here. I had the same exact issue with my G3 which is part of the reason I upgraded to the G4. Oh well.
T-Mobile seems to be stumped. Clicking the retry button never does anything.
I did a factory reset and so far I have now been getting all the messages in my group chat. Hopefully it stays like this!
My wife's phone is getting the retry download thing again. It was good while it lasted.... All 36 hours of it. Meanwhile, tmobile is sending me another phone, but I'm not optimistic.

It's almost like it's a rot issue of some sort. When I switched back to my S6 I factory wiped my G4 and was ready to sell it I was so annoyed but I decided to just hang out to it a little bit longer. Earlier this week I loaded it up and used it for a day or so and everything was working okay and then sure enough about 2 days in all the same old bugs started again. Definitely consistent across our devices it seems.
I've been having this problem with for a while. I think it's a T-Mobile thing. I had this problem with my Nexus 5, S5 and now my G4. It seems to only happen with Group Messaging for me on all 3 phones.

What's funny is one of the techs I've spoken with at tmobile mentioned that, off the record. He said there was some system update they did some time ago and ever since then they've had more calls about SMS and MMS issues. I really don't remember having the issue as much when I had the Nexus 6 or the One M8 but I don't think I was group texting quite as much. Since tmobile is sending out a replacement I'll probably switch to it. I guess I'll stop sweating it so much... Just annoying.

That's strange I've never had this issue with any of my other phone on TMo including the S6 I'm using now. Hopefully it gets sorted in one fashion or another soon.
I had 3 this weekend from three different people - all had iPhones. One was on at&t, one was on Verizon, and I'm finding out the carrier for the third right now.
And all of the groups were three people - 2 iPhones and my G4.
I've been suffering this issue on my AT&T G4 on multiple occasions. Doesn't appear to be carrier related, unfortunately.
Does anyone have a new updated solution for this? My SO has a tmobile g4 and SMS/MMS is worthless at work. No signal (or other networks), great wifi signal but message just say sending and failed.. Wifi in of it self works fine to surf.
I have a similar problem on my note 4, but it is much less frequent.
Thanks!

No phone calls

Hi, i purchased my Op3 about a week ago, since then i updated the firmware to 3.2.6 still haven't rooted nor installed a custom recovery.
For some reason only about 1 out of 5 calls come in, the others just send to voicemail, i have good reception here (lte), i can make calls fine, im just having trouble receiving them....
Is that a known issue or what do you think?
Thanks!
