My snapdragon s20 FE keeps resetting screen orientation (btw it's turned off), when in landscape. If I'm watching a video in Firefox it also minimizes into PIP floating mode. If I'm writing a text in messenger or other app, all of the text from the box disappears randomly and the screen flashes.
Do you guys know any fix? Haven't tried resetting the device yet. Or am I just supposed to wait for another update?
I just updated and started having this issue too. Before update never had this issue.
So far no solution yet.
Hi! I have same problem from septemper update. The problem is stock Samsung SMS app. Try to download other SMS app from PlayStore (for example Google Messages) and set it as default message app. For me it helps. You can also try to clear data in stosck Samsung SMS app but I dont try it and remember it delete yours message

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
So I rooted my device and have experienced no issues, save one... I chose to use the Samsung mail client rather than gmail, I can't stand the gmail ui. Well, post root my email icon opens my phone/dialer app. I've been browsing the file structure but haven't located it yet. I've got a thanks button at the ready if anyone can point me in the right direction.
Edit: Issue resolved itself however something similar occurred with the amazon app. Seems minor enough but I'll post more if the behavior continues.
I have been having weird issues happening in gmail. Couldn't add any attachment. It just force closes. USA Today seems to force close. Everything was fine again when I reboot. I would get random force closes, but every time after reboot, things seem to fix themselves.
You might want to wipe cachecache or do a reset to resolve these types of issues
Ok I had this before on my nexus but cannot remember how I fixed it.
I get an sms and it shows in notification but when I open the sms there are no text in the message. It just disappears.
And it happens in Hangout and Messenger.
What's the main sms process ? Want to see if I force stop and clear data if it will fix the problem
Thanks Rudolph
Does anybody know why this happens? I have the same issue but am not sure how to fix it.
Would really appreciate the help
Same issue here. Nexus 6 on Android N.
I have Hangouts as the default messaging app.
When I receive a text message, a heads up notification pops up but when I open hangouts the message is gone.
I also tried to switch to the Google Messenger app. In this case I can receive texts but I cannot send them...
Textra seems to work fine but it's not my cup of tea...
Anyone knows how to fix this, please?
Now it's getting even weirder.
It looks like whatever SMS I delete in Hangouts or Messenger gets restored after I close and reopen the app...
It looks like that whatever I do in Messenger or Hangouts goes nowhere and does nothing.

This is why it is an alpha build and not really meant for day to day use.
Same issue here.
I searched old threads, and found there is a solution, just reboot to safety mode, and send a sms to yourself. Then reboot to normal...
However, it doesn't work for me.
I have just found what may have caused the issue (at least in my case) and it was entirely my fault.
I basically dirty flashed the N alpha on top of my previous 6.0.1 installation where I had made quite a few changes, instead of doing a clean installation.
That plus the fact that some SMS/MMS things have now changed in M (for example the telephony databases are no more stored in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony but are now under /data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony ) may have messed up my system.
I've now done a clean installation and all seems to be fine with SMS in Hangouts for the time being.
Other small annoyances (mainly related to the cellular data connection) also seem to be gone now.
The SMS issue reappeared after some time (i.e. Incoming text messages are shown in notifications but they are not saved in Hangouts or Messenger).
After having done all sort of different tests, it looks like the issue may be related to a language setting.
The Android N alpha allows you to set two languages under Settings > Language & input > Language.
- With just one language enabled, all is fine.
- With 2 languages enabled, Hangouts and Messenger seem to work ok for some time, then the disappearing-SMS bug comes back. The only workaround I could find is to disable the second system language and reboot the phone.
Hey all, I hope somebody can help me out with this. I've noticed this problem with multiple apps but I will continue my description with Whatsapp as it's the most important to me.
It seems to be random, but some (becoming most) times I don't receive any notifications from whatsapp. When i open the app, i can see the app "updating" and receiving all the messages that were sent to me since the previous launch.
I have gone to the battery management and turned whatsapp to manual mode with all 3 options enabled (auto launch, secondary app launch and background usage)
I've also turned on unlimited data restrictions for the app.
I'm still facing the same issue. Anybody else out there facing the same thing with whatsapp or any other app? Any ideas how to fix this?
Same problem messaged Huawei and got a real crap guide on how to fix it . There "fix" was to hard reset the phone which we all know a new phone should work out of the box what good is a hard reset going to do apart from wipe the phone
It could be a network issue. Sometimes when am on wifi every notification comes on time(tested it with my second phone). When i switch on 4g , notification can have a considerable delay. And not only watsapp. Instagram facebook gmail you name it.

Have you try to put out whatsapp from battery optimization apps...
Settings, Apps, Apps, press 4 dots upper right corner, special access (or something like that), exclude whatsapp or any other app from battery optimization
My notfications are working, but sometimes it doesn't play the notification sound for whatsapp. It seems to be random, does anybody know how to fix this?
Hi,
Between 16-20.12 my notifications from Facebook Messenger application to Android Auto stopped working. Notifications work with Whatsapp, as well as text messages (SMS). I tried to install other versions of the Messenger app but it didn't work. My phone is HTC U12 +, Android 9. Before 16-20.12 everything worked fine and notifications from this application were showing, any ideas gentlemen?
Same here. It began before my update to android 11 but has continued since. I've tried toggling every setting I can on messenger/android auto for phone screens and the general notification settings on my Samsung galaxy note 20 ultra with no effect. I've tried clearing cache/data in the affected apps (messenger and android auto) and resetting my car app. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling messenger but still no joy. It seems to be an issue with the messenger app as android auto still receives sms and reads them out as normal. I've submitted numerous bug reports on the messenger app but it's been about 6 weeks now and it still persists. Any suggestions would be helpful!
I'm having the exact same issue with my setup. I get no notifications on the phone or infotainment system when the phone is plugged in. And when I try to send a message via Google assistant in Android Auto it says that it can't use Facebook Messenger it has been blocked or disabled I think. I am on a Note 20 Ultra 5G and using a factory Skoda infotainment system. Even more odd is that in the AA phone Interface it shows messenger is "on" in the version and permission list when tapping on system information at the bottom.
I have the same problem. It must me messenger so have disabled it.
Any fix ?
