Happened to me a lot, started using textra and the problem went away?
Give it a shot.

Yeah I used Evolve to do that, and that problem went away, but had problems with receiving texts so switched back to Messenger and it just picked up where it left off w/ notification.
There must be a real solution to this but not sure where to reset or what file to remove to get the notification message to go away.
It's just annoying.
Cleared app cache and storage but that did nothing, it's some mystery file somewhere.

[Q] Stuck "Sending.." GMAIL

I know there is already a thread on stuck sending text message, ive only had that happen to me twice and both times they turned grey after a few minutes and said "failed" I just hit resend and it works fine.
My issue is that emails, 5 times now have got stuck on sending and never time out.
Is there anyway to fix this quickly? The only thing I have got to work is unsyncing my account that I was sending it from and then resyncing it.
every time this has happened i was sending multiple files, and had an intermittent 3g connection.
If this is the same issue as the other thread feel free to move this post into that thread.

Excellent question, I have had this happen to me as well. Here is what I did to (I think) fix it:
Uninstall/delete the Gmail.apk from /system/app using Root Explorer or ADB. Next I pushed the stock Gmail.apk from a zip I had lying around and rebooted. Once the app is reinstalled I went to the market and updated it to the newest version, which ended up fixing the problem. I hope this helps, I know your pain

well i just updated gmail, i wish i hadnt deleted the sending email so i could see if it fixed it.
but i did try to send a couple more emails before updating and none of them would send. .. now they send fine.
before it would just happen randomly, so lets hope it was just a bug in the old gmail app.

Eh most likely it would have stopped them from sending anyway while it updated. Glad that fixed the problem, if the issue arises again feel free to post again in this thread.

cmon toppy nursey, do you really think, that you got people in here restarting their phone, deleting storage, deleting syncs... etc and nobody tried to exit gmail and wait a few seconds...
Going into airplane mode was also one of the first things I tried it didnt help at all.
Well I can confirm that the problem still happens with the latest gmail. even if you can delete the email thats stuck sending... if you try to send another one it will get stuck as well. the quickest solution works for me is clear data and clear cache of the gmail app. If it happens again Im going to try to just clear cache and see if that works.
I will update this thread in the future if I find any more information out.

Actually when I first noticed the problem I read a lot around here and people were coming up with all sorts of complex solutions. I tried those as well, but often the simple solution is usually the most elegant. Instead of focusing in on the problem it is better to understand exactly what is going on that causes what you are seeing.
Yes, the simple solution is to just exit out of gmail and wait for gmail to execute its programming and send out your email. Constantly "checking" just exacerbates the problem.

This isn't a Gmail specific problem. It happens with Yahoo Mail and the stock email app that came with the Epic. I switched to Gmail to avoid this problem but it did not help. I also will have outgoing email send multiple times which us extremely annoying. This happens on 3g and wifi, so its not a connectivity issue.

Can you please elaborate on "understanding what exactly is going on" all you said was its executing programming.. to me it seems like its not doing anything, or its stuck in a loop.
Ive had emails stuck "sending..." for 48 hours before... so if waiting is the solution, I cant wait 2+ days to send an email.
I really hope you can explain whats happening, Im interested and it sounds like you know what you are talking about at a coding level.
clearing data in gmail and clearing data in google frameworks did it for me when I have sending problems.
Truth!

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but had to have some leg surgery to keep some slow flesh eating bacteria at bay. I'm not a coder or even a programmer. What I do seem to do very well is looking at complex problems and coming up with simple solutions. You might consider me to be a systems analyst (aka a RN) so to speak.
Since we live in a logical world things happen for a reason. In the case of computers we can assume that every result is brought upon us by the action or inaction of a program. Thus the simple solution for this problem is to forget about it and check back with Gmail when we next need to use the app. It's not a fix per se, but an analysis of what is going on. Works every time for me.

Receiving Multiple text messages

My atrix seems to be receiving every message I am sent multiple times, usually about 4 times. This is really beginning to annoy me.
I run Handcent and yes I have turned notifications off for the default text app.
This problem has only started over the last couple of days and I cannot work out why as I did not change anything to cause this.
Any ideas on how to fix this would be apreciated.
You can try this for a temporary fix: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.baole.antibomber
It's very YMMV.
I guess that might work but would prefer a permanent fix if anyone has a solution

Probably not exactly what you want to hear, but I think the best thing to do would be to set your Handcent SMS back to its default settings then use the walkthrough on the Handcent site.
When I started using it I had a similar issue, but their information is laid out very well and was able to help me fix my problem.

did you make sure to freeze the stock text messaging app via titanium backup? That eliminated the issue for me.

"Unfortunately, messaging has stopped"

Is anyone else getting this message? How do I fix it?
It happens to me when wifi is being used. Turn off wifi and it works again. Im thinking about taking this phone back.
Lol i dont have that issue. Maybe you got rid of something that you shouldn't have.

It happens to me as well. When did this happen? I transferred my old mms/sms to the S4. That error pops up if the message contained picture messages. To get around it I downloaded go sms from the app store haven't had the error since
Try clearing your messaging app's data. (Settings > More > App Manager > All > Messaging > Clear Data) or make sure you didn't disable the messaging app.
Fix Permissions?
This happened to me when I transferred my messages over from my iphone. (had about 40k) and whenever a large amount of messages appear the system has a hard time processing it all. If that is the case with you, just restart you phone and it'll stop after 2-3 uses.

You restarted the phone each time the messaging app crashed? When did the app crash? When you first clicked on messaging or when you clicked on a contacts name to read the messages?

I retarded each time the messaging app crashed, and it crashed when i went back from reading the message. This is right after I transferred all the messages also.
Maybe there was an issue with the transfer of your messages from the iphone to the gs4.
No issue, just lots of messages. It worked fine after that.
After reading up on this a bit, I think I have isolated it as an issue with wifi. Whenever I turn my wifi off, it seems to be better.

I'm glad that works for you. I always leave my wifi off. So I know that's not the problem. The problem will also show up in airplane mode
I have no issues yet, I will continue to update this if this fix works. Unfortunately, Samsung chat was useless to me and was unable to resolve my issue.

NOT able to send or receive picture messages!!!

I am currently using a stock everything 6p with a Verizon sim for some strange reason today I'm not able to send or receive pictures on the stock messaging app. I read a few other people been having this same issue. Has anyone found the solution yet?

Couple of things. 1 check to see if you connected to LTE, You cannot send MMS over wifi on Verizon. They took that feature out, dont know why. Second, Check to see if there any old MMS that are stuck, its good idea to delete all old MMS that are pending to be sent and retry.
Someone else posted something similar the other night, they had one of those old MMS stuck in resizing. He deleted that message and his MMS started working again.
I have a similar problem since I updated to Verizon Message version 6.06. I could not go back to the last version, and I was unable to find the prior version APK file; however, Amazon had a very old version of Verizon Message, so I loaded that and it fixed the issue. I was also able to use the stock message app to get and send MMS, but with Verizon's app I could not.

Hi, without trying to hijack the thread, why solid this be an issue? I am having trouble with my s5 cm 13 alpha and assumed it was because of that, but does pushbullet affect it?

I had trouble with my 6p sending MMS. After googling it, I found people with the same issue and quite a few had pushbullet installed and said that once they uninstalled it, it worked fine. Once I uninstalled it, MMS started working again.

This happened to me the other day. I tried turning data on/off, airport mode on/off, restarting the device, clearing data&cache from the Messages application as well as reverting Messages to factory and reinstalling the updates.
Either by chance or by one/all of those things, it seemed to clear up.
This is not just Verizon, it's happening to T-Mobile also but I don't think it's a carrier issue. My nexus 5 does the same thing as my 6p. Rebooting the phones and it starts working again. This affects group messaging also. When I receive a group text it days unable to download. Restart they phone and it comes through. Hopefully this is a marshmallow issue that will hey fixed ota.
It's the app. Mostly happens to me when WiFi is connected with "WiFi calling" enabled. I disable WiFi and reboot the phone and then everything works again. It happens to me once in every month, if that. Don't bother me much.

Textra as default SMS app, Messaging app randomly receiving texts

Has anyone seen this behavior on the V20? I have Textra set as the default SMS app and randomly, I get a notification from the Messaging app that I have a new text or MMS. The odd thing is that those messages won't show up in Textra, only in Messaging.
So far it seems to be with 1 contact, my brother who is on T-Mobile using an S6. I deleted my convo in Messaging with him when this happened yesterday and deleted his convo with me on his phone and it was fine. Just now, I got an MMS from him and happened again. Seems odd...
Anyone else?

I tried that right after I posted, actually. Seeing if it happens again.
How can I get textra to show on second screen
Will Textra send via WiFi? I have not tried the app yet.
Thanks
I'm not seeing this behavior yet. However, Textra and the Messaging app aren't showing any of my contacts. I keep syncing them, and they show up in the Contacts app, but it's like the Textra/messaging app doesn't have access to them or something.
Edit: Reboot helped.

Same thing. Have you been able to fix it? I'm about to delete Textra, force stop stock app, then reinstall Textra to see if it will start working properly. I noticed that it happens to only one person in my contact list, extremely odd.
Just in case anyone else is having this issue I seemed to have found a fix. Go to settings then apps. Select the native messaging app. Revoke permissions, block notifications, switch "message app" to No, switch draw over other apps to No. Delete Textra, restart phone, reinstall Textra, & set Textra as default app (simply go into Textra & begin to use it, it will ask if you want to make it the default). This should hopefully fix any issues anyone might be having.

THX,I'll give that a shot (not sure if I'm actually having issues,but,incoming texts seem to be coming in later than they should).
And BTW...............
:good: WELCOME TO XDA DEVELOPERS ! :good:
EDIT: @Kief_haring
After following the steps you listed,the stock messaging app settings (permissions/notifications) reverted back to enabled.
The message app & draw-over other apps settings remained off (no).
There's some MMS settings within the Textra app that are T-Mobile specific,may need to have some trial & error to get things just right,YMMV.

You have to make sure you don't open the native app after setting everything to off. Maybe just set them all to off, delete Textra then reinstall. Don't restart phone as that may be what is enabling the native messaging app settings. I have T-Mobile as well. I enable the T-Mobile MMS over wifi option to on within Textra. Let me know if this works out, if not I'll try to troubleshoot the issue a bit more.
Also thanks for the warm welcome! I've been lurking on this site for over 10 years, just never made an account. Figured it was about time to give some input & ask questions for myself as well. Love this community & want to give back as much as I have taken from it.

T Mobile wifi fix. Apologies for not being more clear about that. When you set that you can actually see wifi shut off & 4G take over when sending an MMS. Never have trouble sending a picture after setting that up.

Also with MMS Behavior, Legacy seems to be working well on the V20. Haven't had to even think about switching to System MMS.

I leave the off on mine and have not had any issues sending MMS.
Wish that Textra supported the second screen and that is where the notifications appeared.

I'll have to try and leave it off... With the N6P it always had to be on.
None of the above worked for me. The one or two peoples messages that were going into the stock app just stopped coming in completely.
Any other ideas?
