HTC stock Messages app and other messaging apps - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a stock, Sprint HTC One M7 running Android 5.0.2 & HTC Sense 6.0.
Has anyone had the problem where a 3rd party messaging app (Google Messenger, Pulse, etc.) is not storing and providing notifications of incoming messages? Almost daily, I have instances where people will send me a text, and I get no notification from the 3rd party app. If I go into HTC Messages, I do see those texts, but again they are not storing in the 3rd party app. I do not have HTC Messages set as the default app.
I did communicate with one developer and he thinks the HTC Messages is not writing properly to the internal database. I'm guessing other messaging apps pick up the messages from a single database, then show a notification? I'm still stock, so I can't disable HTC Messages.
Any suggestions to solve this?
Thanks for your time,
Eric

make hero message wiget work with google voice messages

how can i make the htc messages widget for the hero rom work with my google voice messages as opposed to my carrier messages
have google voice send you text
I really don't that's what HTC had in mind when they made the widget. Don't think you can, ever, unless HTC does an update for it as it's closed source. But I thought it just came through as a regular SMS so it should be added.

stock messaging app required for other messaging apps

Hey guys. So I was in terminal deleting the stock apps that I don't need to have and one of those apps which I deleted was the stock messaging app, I did this because I was using hancent. Well now I am not receiving text messages
- It all started after I deleted the stock app, I am not sure if it started immediately after or a while after
- I was using handcent and I noticed that I was getting the pop up received thing and the quick reply option but in the actual handcent app under each conversation the incoming message was not there.
- I then switched to chomp sms to see if that would fix it. Now I am not getting the quick reply popup message received (in chomp)
Are there any suggestions to fix this or knowledge about this topic? Do you need to have the stock messaging app inorder to have other messaging apps work? Oh ya, outgoing messages still work.

[Q] In desperate need of a way to ensure my SMS app receives everything.

I am on CM7 on my Milestone and have the SMS/launcher apps locked in memory (although I uninstalled the stock sms to just use handcent) and I am sick of missing messages to the point I have got in trouble because of missing messages.
What else can I do to stop this problem?
Just today I tried texting myself a number (quick way to get info to the phone and never even got the message.
I have been in the application settings and watched it randomly restart which I believe would miss any messages at that time. Since I heard before when either the SMS app or Laucher is loading that any messages will be lost.
Try using the default messaging apk inside CM7 Milestone. As Handcent uses much more RAM compared to the default one. Also, try minimizing widgets on your homescreen, and other apps that constantly run in the background (i.e. antivirus, CPU/RAM/system monitors, social networking apps, etc.)
I will think about trying the stock again but I remember it as being pretty basic.
I have no widgets at all and Facebook sync turned off only other app I know that runs in the background is my voice caller id, which I can't live without.

Contact Pictures Problem

I can't seem to get my contact pictures to display in my third party messaging apps. They show in my contacts just not any of my messaging apps (Handcent SMS/Sliding Messenger) Any fixes for this? By the way, I'm rooted on the Icarus HD rom, but even before then I had no luck. Also, they do show on my stock messaging, just none of the third party apps.

Messaging apps service not running in the background. EMUI 3.0 B621

Hi guys, I need your help. My messaging apps service closes after some time of no activity. It therefore does not receive any messages and the only text messages I get are those that come shortly after I have opened the app. If the app is not running for too long I don't get any texts. Has anybody had this problem? I have tried different sms apps but they are all like this.
