Just received my Z3C from the Sony store yesterday. Moving from an Iphone 6. I've tried the stock app, Textra, and Chomp but can't seem to get any of them to badge the icon with the amount of new text waiting. I have it turned on in the Chomp settings. Mail and other apps seem to be working fine. Anyone have a clue?
Thanks

It's been almost a week since the stock Messages app started acting up.
If I try to open the app by tapping the icon, it will start, briefly show the messages and close itselt with an error prompt that allows me to close it or send an error report. If I receive an SMS and tap the notification, the app opens and shows the message, I can reply and it works fine this way.
Restarting the phone sometimes solves this right away but it appears at random times. I don't text that much via SMS (mainly WhatsApp and Skype) but it's annoying to not be able to open the app to send an SMS on the rare occasions I need to.
I have an unlocked US model, I'm not rooted or anything. Using stock with Nova Launcher Prime and a couple icon packs.
Has anyone experienced this problem with the Messages app?
I'm currently waiting for the 4.2.2 update to show on the phone. I hope this is fixed in this update.
If the update doesn't fix it, I will try Textra or SMS Now. I've read good things bout them but I really didn't need an extra messaging app since I received or need to send 1-3 SMS a day.
Having a 3rd-party SMS apps will interfere with the stock Contacts and Dialer apps in some way?

First thing I would do is go into settings > apps >all. Go to messages then force stop. Reset defaults and delete data.. That should reset anything you may have changed on error. If that doesn't work do a factory reset. If that doesn't work then I would say your launcher has a conflict

I already deleted its cached data and reset default options. Could be Nova Prime Launcher having a conflict with Messages, but the strange thing is that it started to happen long after installing Nova.
I'm waiting for the 4.2.2 update. When it shows I will update and do a factory reset.
Thanks
Hey guys!
Recently, I bought an HTC One and because I'm switching from a Nexus device, I installed as many stock Android apps as possible from the Play Store.
Including the stock SMS app, which seems to bring some problems:
1. Even after disabling notifications inside the Sense SMS app, it still has influence on the unread counter. My new android stock SMS app now always shows a "(1)" on its icon, even if there are no unread messages.After starting the sense stock messaging app once, the counter disappears ...but only till a new message comes in.
2. I often get a "message not sent" notification when using the android stock SMS app, but the message is being sent though. Some seconds later the message is marked as sent and everything is okay (Transmission report is active).
Do you have any ideas how to fix these issues? The easiest way would be to disable the sense messaging app, but I'd like to leave my bootloader locked for a while, so I'm looking for a solution without having root.
Bump
Any ideas?
When I upgraded to Kit Kat recently I noticed that you can now set the default text messaging app.
This presents a problem with my Gear 2 as I've noticed that when I set GoSMS as the default app, then I no longer get the Messages notifications on my Gear that I can reply to using the pre-defined macros. This is one of the things I like the most about my Gear 2.
I tried using GoSMS while the default app is active but it's extremely annoying asking me to set GoSMS as the default messaging after like every click so I started using the normal Messages client so I can still see the GoSMS popups.
Here's the problem, for some reason messages I was sending with the stock Messaging client were not sending, it was spinning forever. Then when I froze GoSMS in Titanium Backup all the messages that were spinning suddenly went out (like 6 of them to different peeps)
Does anyone know a way to make it work like it did in JB where I can use GoSMS for messages but still get the Messages notifications on my Gear 2 watch?
The only option I have for GoSMS notifications on the watch is to view them on the device. It won't even let me read them. I really liked the ability to text people "on my way" from my watch. Or simple yes, no, working on it, etc. Really convenient.
Thanks for the help guys.
I've been searching for a way to delete notifications from my neo on both my device and the neo. I'm not sure this feature even exist. Anyone else know???
I really like the gear 2 neo, and the convenience of receiving notification on the watch and never having to pull out my phone is really nice. But, if to delete notifications I now have to not only delete them on the neo but also separately on my phone... then that's not so convenient.
I now find myself deleting notifications twice which is a PITA! This could potentially be a deal breaker for me. Feedback or suggestions anyone???
Hmmm interesting one.
I went back to using the stock Message and Email apps because they seem to be the only ones that display the email/SMS on the watch properly, but when I open the notification on my watch, the notification disappears from my phone.
The only problem I had was when I was using GoSMS, the notification stayed on my phone.
So I think it will only work properly with the stock apps.
I've always used the stock messaging app, but I've also always used the gmail app too. Maybe the gmail app is the main issue because I get tons of email and that's where I notice the problem the most. I'll try accessing my gmail through the stock mail app and see how that works out. Thanks for that suggestion. I'll let u know how it goes
I had the Watch 4 pro and now the Watch 5 pro and have experienced the same issue. I'm using a Galaxy S22 ultra phone as well. I do not get notifications/alerts on my watch when I get text messages to my default text messaging app, Google Messages. I have received a notification only 2 times. Both times I had sent a text with my phone while at work with bad service, and the message wont send. I then get notified on my watch that the text didn't send. And at that point, and text messages that come through will vibrate on my watch until while that original notification is there. Does anyone have my insight as to whether this is a known issue with Google Messages and the Galaxy Watches? I have all the proper notification settings in place. Its not a deal breaker enough for me to go back to the stock messaging app, but it would be nice to get Google Messages to work properly with the notifications! Both the phone and watch are regularly updated.
