Dear All,
This problem is rather strange. I have an issue with my stock message app. It can receive and send SMS for the most part
The problem is, I can't seem to receive any SMS from one particular number only.
I can, however, send an SMS to that same number. It is receiving texts that are problematic.
I have checked with that other phone already, and it was able to send and receive SMS to another phone (not mine), without issue. Hence the problem appears to lie with my phone.
Of course, I can't say if there are other numbers from whom I can't receive SMS, but can only send, but this is something that I of course will not be able to know for sure.
Help please!
ADDITIONAL:
I am now using Hangouts, but it is not very intuitive. It does not have search capabilities. But at least when i use hangout as my default messaging app, i can receive text messages from that particular number. I tried going back to the stock messaging app, but the problem is still there and this problem is present each time i attempt to revert to the stock samsung app as the default messaging app. Hangouts is presently the default messaging app, so i can receive SMS from the particular number.
Hope you can help identify the issue here. Thanks.

Does any have this problem.
I sent an SMS to a friend in my contacts. He said he never received it. And now I just received a phone call from someone who did receive it. He told me he keep getting them and wants it to stop.
So is there an issue with the SMS sender on this XDA. Most of my SMS go through no problem.
Your thoughts?
is this only sms messeges or does it happen if you call the contact aswell ?
No, just SMS.
Also I receive SMS from an estate agent for houses, which I have subscribed to, but the name of the sender is someone else from my contacts. Do you think the software needs updating.
well i had issues like that but it turned out that i was my mistake
when i typed in the contacts
if you can see both the contact name and the phone nr and see in your contacts that there are nowhere where you can see any connection between the two then maybe i've never heard about it before
also make sure you have choosen your country in localizing in settings
Good day everyone! i have a issue regarding receiving SMSmassages on my unit...The factory default SMS application had limited sending capabilities (when after reaching 80kb, message becomes MMS), so i downloaded Handcent SMS messenger. Its works fine,m but the problem is I receive 2x messages from the original SMS messenger and the new downloaded Handcent application, so I have to read twice the same message everytime someone sends me SMS. My question is, how can i make Hancent my default SMS messanger? Or, how can I make it that I receive 1 message feom Hancent application only? I know someone out there with great knowledge of these problem is out there, hpe you can help me! thanx!
Handcent tells you waht to do for notifications, read it and follow the directions not that hard. Go into factory SMS, settings, notifications UN CHECK It, not that hard. READ.
It's an amazing app but has one drawback. We can't send the message to person which has multiple numbers. It doesn't recognize the default number which we have set and always ask to which number to send which is quite annoying. I can send the messages to contacts with default number with stock messaging app.
I think Handcent sms has same problem as well. Any solution so far?
Hi guys,
Since a while I'm having troubles receiving texts. Sometimes I receive them sometimes I don't. I've checked my log from my provider and they do go through so I'm not sure what's the issue. I'm using Textra right now but haven't noticed the ones I'm missing from my original messaging application neither.
Thanks
Hello,
I would like to know how I can disable the automatic conversion sms in mms from the stock application without root?
1. Unless you're messaging a group, SMS won't be converted to MMS.
2. The default Messages app also supports RCS on most networks (e.g. on my Vodafone HU model, it received and displayed RCS messages with ease), so that might also be happening in your case.
Any ideas how to disable this SMS to MMS?
Even longer message to only one person results in conversion to MMS. I want to disabe this whout root. Thank you for any tips.
My problem is SMS messages to one recipient always automatically to MMS. All the others go normally. I'd like to stop this one from converting as I usually don't have data on and don't wont to turn it on only to send one message. I'm using the S8 with the Samsung messaging app.
i have the same problem, when my text exceeds the 3 sms it automatically converts to mms.. I know someone with the samsung J5 and on this phone it doesn't converts..
I would of thought it would be possible on the S8, but i can't seem to find any settings for this.
Is there any way to stop the conversion to mms?
If I remember correctly, than Samsung devices with 6.0 or older allowed you to write 10 SMS, before it converts to MMS. With 7.0 and newer it allows only 3. It's very annoying for me, because when I type in my language, with specialized characters, one SMS is about 60 symbols. It's very, very frickin annoying.
There use to be an Xposed module for this, but it doesn't work on Samsung's with 7.0+.
Any fix for this?
yes a fix would be great even with root. because sms is free mms is not!
