For the life of me I can't seem to send out receive MMS messages.
I used to get errors then manually entered the APN info for att and now no errors but just stuck at sending or downloading
Anyone have any ideas?
I get that with the Google messenger app on AT&T. Any other messenger app works fine. Have you tried another app?

Hmm, I do have adblock plus installed. Did you add the http and proxy addresses?
EDIT:
Turned off the adblock and sure enough. However I can't seem to find any exception lists.

Yeah, seems I found a way by changing MMS port in APN to 8080 and not default 80. allows it to work with adblock plus filter enabled. But thank you for the adblock mention saved me a headache.
Thanks everyone else as well.
Glad you got it sorted. Now if I can just get my phone I can start having fun also. Supposed to be here tomorrow but been delayed till next week sometime

As much as I whined for 2 weeks on the waiting room thread trust me it's worth the wait. Moto really screwed the pooch on their shipping and estimates for a lot of people. Mine magically made it the day after estimated. Whatever your fedex tracking states you should get it the day before. If you haven't signed up for Delivery Manger go ahead and do so, I couldn't due to verification issues but it's worth a try.

That's the crap part haven't gotten any shipping info from moto or delivery manager it's just going to be plain old late, but upside I guess is when I talked to them today they said should have it by the 22nd but they do have a serial number for it in their system now so I guess that's a step in the right direction. Screwed the pooch is a nice way of saying how all this is being handled. Dang it felt good to vent a little. Have a good one boss

Don't be surprised if you end up having other issues with this.
You don't have to make the changes if you use AdAway

My thing about adaway is it modifies the host file and sometimes prevents access to places I go to like steamcommunity etc or sites that have any ads blocked on some sites.

Im sure most of you read the news about hangouts now supports vzw mms or vzw finally supporting google voice... regardless, this is great news for me since my primary phone has being my Google voice for a long time.
I'm looking forward to a way of making hangouts being less laggy on the Note, if anyone was able to make it more smooth, please share.

Right... it is weird, it is very laggy on my wife's S5, was laggy on my S5. It is laggy on a G3 I have laying around and also on my Galaxy Tab S. I have a original Moto X and on the Moto X it isn't laggy... I'll keep an eye on the development of this issue, I have 2 year warranty anyway (and never keep a phone for that long) if it turns out to be a defective device I'll replace it.

Thanks for this! I've been giving out my Google Voice number for years and the whole MMS thing has been the one thing I hated about it.
I just tested with a friend who sent me a pic and it got shifted over to email. Not ideal, but since I get email on the phone too it's a lot better than it just disappearing into cyberspace.
I haven't integrated Hangouts with Voice yet so maybe that's why it got turned into an email. I've been hesitant to integrate the two. Does anyone know how to separate them again if I try it and don't like it?

I don't know how to separate them, never tried really but the reason you got the picture on an email is because the Google voice app doesn't support pictures, even back in the day when T-Mobile and Sprint were the only two supported for MMS I think it was received as an email.
Make the jump to hangouts and it will all work fine. By the way, when you switch it to hangouts, you'll have to forward your calls again to your Verizon phone # OR you can use the hangouts app to make and receive phone calls. The calls handled by hangouts are over WiFi or data, like VOIP

My understanding and experience so far is you can send MMS, get MMS, whichever. Group messages aren't working, though, so not that kind of MMS!

According to this http://www.droid-life.com/2014/11/10/google-voice-mms-messaging-support-for-verizon-now-official/ , group messaging is being worked on and will "be enabled in a coming update".
Got my new verizon s7 sat. I can't get Gmail to push new emails, it only works if I open the app and manually refresh. I have tried wiping cache and data for the app, ensured that the sync Gmail in settings >accounts is on.... which it seems to get hung up there occasionally, I see the circle but it isn't spinning. I have turned on all the settings in the app too

Well it appears to be working again, I cracked my screen already on my phone, so I got a new one through insurance. Fired it up last night and the Gmail app is pushing as normal not sure if it was an update , I had the app set to stop syncing before maybe it worked with the old phone after an update , regardless it is working now

I used to be able to do this on my tmo m8, but don't have an option with this phone. Don't know if it's Sprint or Marshmallow, but it's extremely annoying!
I have a contact called spam which houses all of my telemarketing and other annoying callers and would like to configure it to just send those to voicemail. Is this not possible at all now? And if not, wtf?

Is that a sprint or marshmallow thing? Well, now that I think of it, my old phone was rooted and I was running roms on them. So perhaps it was something was always built into the roms I was using. Still, seems like a really simple, yet effective feature. Don't understand why sprint or google doesn't include that feature.
Not sure but I've been with Sprint for 9 years, and been like that as long as I can remember

I use Extreme call blocker & it works wonders. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greythinker.punchback
I use to use root call blocker on my M9 which was amazing till the mm update which broke it.
However this app is just as good and no root required. Doesn't affect battery life and it just does it's job and stays out of the way. It's not free but that's a good thing in my eyes, no ads and support got back to me lightning quick if you have an issue but I can confirm it works wonderful on this phone. There is a slight delay when a junk call comes in so phone might go off for a second but I'm guessing this is due to no root access but it's still pretty quick and will keep your call logs clean. Mine is setup to block all calls unless you are in my contacts and other calls get sent to voicemail so if it's important they can leave a message.

Thanks! It appears they do have a free version of this that blocks the calls, but not the text messages. I never had a problem with the texts, just the calls, so this could be perfect! I installed it last night and now I'm kinda hoping for another spam call soon so I can see it in action. Thanks again!

Yea I just bought the paid version right away, I like to support great devs anyway. I shut off SMS blocking, could be something I use in the future. Yea you can see the phone light up when a spam call comes in. Mainly I like it for keeping my logs clean and not bothering me for numbers I don't want to talk to which is everyone not in my contact list.

Yes, I am experiencing the same issue. A temporary workaround until a fix is produced is to enable "Send using Enter" in the settings.
Same here. I thought it was only me
Me too, I am back on the stock client for now. From what I can tell Textra needs to adjust touch placement for the notification bar. I was going to send them an email since they have been super responsive in the past... then I thought they probably hate me right now. lol
I noticed that you basically have to tap a CM(1/4") or two under what you actually want to touch. I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon once the device is in more users hands.
Ditto...also can't swipe to delete unless I increase the font size to 150% (Settings - Customize Look)
