When I receive a text. It doesn't show up but there is a new blank message from 5556. What's that about? Anyone else having this issue? I have not begun troubleshooting.

Itz the mac user trying to hack youu
solution: turn off bluetooth
It can be also that when you first time boot to cm it activated your 3g, maybe it is sign of it.
I am experiencing this now too. But I'm on a Samsung Captivate. Rooted, but no custom ROM or anything.
I've also come across one other person experiencing it on an HTC Desire:

Hopefully someone has an idea.
"Blackbook" app was causing this issue.. Uninstall it!
Over the past week, calls made while I'm on wifi using both T-Mobile Wifi Calling or Skype have been choppy and every 5 seconds or so, the voice of the person on the other line goes in-and-out. I've tried on multiple wifi networks so it's not the network. I can't tell if it's related to Lollipop or not because I recently updated to that. Calls made when I'm out and using cell network have no issues.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Found out that another user is having the exact same problem. He posted a video on YouTube here:

Thanks
My wife and I are having the same problems. We also have complaints of voice echoes from whomever is calling. I hope T-Mobile fixes this.

I also have the issue with the voice echoes occurring for the other callers! Do you think it could be related to any of the apps we have on our phones? I'm not sure what steps to take to rectify this issue because I don't think T-Mobile or HTC will be addressing this problem.
I was able to resolve the issues with phone calls by performing a master reset.
Regarding the echoes, I was able to circumvent the issue by lowering the volume and not speaking that loud.
I received an email from an HTC employee regarding my inquiry about the bug and was told to try disabling the Ok Google Detection set to "enabled on any screen" and it seems to have fixed the issue!! Let me know if this works for others as well. Not sure if those of you who have done a master reset re-enabled that setting or not, but perhaps you can try enabling it and see if the issue occurs again. Hopefully this can be patched by either HTC or the Google app itself can be fixed.
Ok everyone figured I'd come here to where the experts live. Haven't been here in awhile.
Recently my S8, wifes S8, and our sons S8+ all have the same issues.
The first issue is texts get stuck "sending". This happens with WiFi on or off, with wifi calling on or off, and I even tried changing off LTE to just 4G/3G/2G and even 2g in settings to see if that would help. I'm on the latest firmware from TMO ending in QEF, well we all are.
The other one is apps like FB and others aren't alerting but they will show the number of alerts even after they've been checked. I've reinstalled these apps and the problem persists, and then I can reboot my phone or wifes phone and all the alerts start working again for awhile and then die eventually.
The texting issue though persists and is random when it will hang and when it doesn't.
According to TMO rep at the store it's a bug in the firmware with bixpy that was pushed out, but I frankly don't buy it and figured I'd hit the guru's up here and see if you guys have any thoughts.
Thanks in advance guys and gals....
I too have had the random "texts get stuck sending" issue. I haven't had it in a while though (now that I've said that I'm sure I will).
I unfortunately don't have any suggestions.
I ended up using googles version of messages due to this. Only on stock text app do i have any problems anymore. I also noticed on the stock app that my phone would say "sending" when the other side would actually get it, but it was at random.
You don't have a cellspot repeater or router do you? Last time I had it, my device was hung and needed reboots. Just a thought.
Thanks for the feedback, yes I have a cell spot, but I also have the issue other areas of town too with no real specific place thatbit always happens.
I'm going to reverse back from the qef firmware and see if that resolves things. This has been so annoying, and it just started about two weeks ago.
Thanks again everyone.
I have had the same issue with sending texts too. I have been using the stock messenger app. I may just switch to textra.
Same issue here. A temporary fix, try turning on airplane mode and off. Works for me a times
Also happening to me on the XAA firmware (have unlocked NA variant) with the stock messaging and Google messages.
So I'll ask the question begging to be asked (at least by me): How does one disable this messaging app and use "stock messaging" app?
Thanks in advance....

Just get a app disabler for Samsung from play store like BK Disabler.
If I were you, just download Android Messages. It's simple and fast.
However, I do not recommend disabling stock messaging, unless you don't like getting EAS (Amber/Weather/Presidential Alert)
Having the exact same issues and it's driving me crazy because I really like this phone. I don't get notifications for any of my apps but when I open them I can see the new messages. A reset seems to fix the problem but it only lasts about an hour before it starts doing the same thing. I've tried using different messaging apps but the same thing. And the fact that I don't get notifications for other apps it can't just be a text messaging issue right?
Happened to me for almost 2 months but haven't had an issue in about a week. Called t mobile, they created a ticket and said they'll be working on it. Few days after speaking to them, problem went away.
This has been happening intermitantly for me as well. It's been bad the past three days. I'm currently in coversations with T-mo's engineering team and they seem to be coming up with a bunch of dead ends. It's not a location based thing as it's been happening over a 20 mile radius in the past few days for me. Other people on T-mo network that I'm freinds with or I work with aren't having any problems. I'm wondering if just a fresh SIM card could solve it?
I have data connection although it seems a little sluggish compared to when I originally got the phone. Similar to OP I've tried all the "G's" modes, with wifi calling on, with it off, with cellular network preffered with wifi calling on and off. With Textra, with stock messaging app. I've factory reset to no avail. I've pulled and re-inserted the SIM card to no avail. This is incredibly frustrating for a flagship phone on a network where I've had no previous issues.
UPDATE: T-Mobile sent me a new SIM card and that seems to have cleared up the issues. Not sure if it just hapened to coincide with T-Mo tower fixes or anything else like that in my area but I'm back to normal operation. Anybody else experiencing this I recommend you push customer service to send you a new sim.
my husband and i are having a strange issue where we can message pictures and video clips to other people that don't have the s8, or aren't on tmobile and they'll send and receive just fine, but when we try to send to each other, the first attempt to send fails, but the second attempt goes through?

Ever since going to the Pie Beta on my US Unlocked Note 8, I have had Issues sending and receiving Picture messages. I've tried through the native messaging app and Mood messenger. Sometimes the picture sends but it's hours later. Never had this issue before the beta. Anybody else experiencing this or know of a way to fix this?
Hello everyone! Excuse me if this post is already somewhere, but I did not find any solution to the problem. I'm experiencing something that I consider quite annoying, as I guess for many others, and I don't know whether is a setting issue or a bug. After sometime, when the screen goes off I don't receive either emails or messages on whatsapp, with their following notifications. I checked all the parameters and seem fine. Did factory reset several times but nothing changed. Everything works perfectly on LTE. Thank you for any help you can provide.
