Me and my wife both have OnePlus 8 Pros - but with different carriers (In Denmark). Non of them are rooted.
After updating to Android 11 we started receiving (and apparently sometimes sending) the same text messages over and over... Up to 5 or 6 times. It's not all messages and not all senders that's affected. But most.
Does anyone have the same problem? Anyone know of a fix for this?
I had this. Turned out it was my carrier, didn't happen on other carriers.
Sometimes happened when I was going in and out of signal strength, like a lift, it tried to send over and over and then it would send them all at once.
Change your SMS client and see if the same thing occurs.

Reception is fine when it happens. I have tried both stock sms client and Google's.
But glad to hear that we are not alone.
Will try to contact my carrier.

Mine had no idea what I meant, hadn't seen if before.
Try a different messaging client like Google messages or there are others on the play store disable stock messages..
Check APN, Message centre number, dual connection in network settings (turn that off)

Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm on tmobile..stock jellybean and stock texting app.
sometimes the MMS will go right away..sometimes they will sit for days..and then i send (or recieve) one from someone and suddenly the floodgates open all my 'stuck' MMS messages go.
i dont know this is a defect..or maybe something quirky about tmobile's network..but it seems to happen about once a week the messages get backed up like this.
never had a problem with SMS..i dont think.
Not sure why but i've had that too. The other night sending to my friend on T-Mobile it wouldn't go for hours then i resent it some 9hrs later and it worked fine. I don't think it's a N4 problem per say as i've had that with my SGS2 also. Maybe it's a ROM thing or just carrier issue but wish it wouldn't be so!
I got this experience with MMS:
- when on WiFi than impossible to send;
- only when on Data transfer MMS is send.
Try to manually set the data and not wifi and try.
Good luck.
MMS only send on mobile data connection, thus has been standard behaviour on every Android phone I've owned
makes sense. i'm on/near wifi for most of the day every day so i guess its not going to send until i'm in my car driving somewhere and regular data kicks on
Shouldn't matter as the phone wont use WIFI to send MMS if the APN has "mms" designation it it. You can watch the signal bars and see he up/down arrow in the cellular signal bars vs wifi when trying to send. At least, that's what it does on my phone yet it still just doesn't send once in a while.

did an experiment today; sent 3 MMS (while i'm hooked to WIFI) and 2 of them went..made a phone call before the 3rd one sent..and it got stuck in 'sending' mode.
2 hours later still stuck in 'sending'. i sent a text to that number ...didn't help.
I then sent another MMS..and when i did, it triggered both the new one and the 'stuck' one to go through.
so there you have it..not conclusive but it seems like maybe when its switching between voice and data it can get stuck..and the stock MMS messenging app doesn't seem to be smart enough to resend automatically. it seems like you have to 'jiggle the handle' to get it to go by sending another MMS.
it also seems sending ANY mms (not even to the stuck #) will release all the hung MMS for everyone.
So this has now happened to me twice, yesterday being the second time.
I'll get a notification for a message at the top, both times it has been after I already had another SMS message that I had not checked yet, then when I click on the notification to bring up the messaging app there is only one of the two messages waiting there in the list. Both times I have texted the person back and they did indeed send me some type of picture message. After resending I receive it the second time. It makes me worried that maybe we could be losing messages and not even know it. It seems to me this is a software bug (vs. Carrier problem since the phone shows a notification for the message)
Has anyone else seen this problem?
I'm on stock 4.2.2 but the first time it happened was on 4.2.1 about a month ago.
Yea, happen to me as well when I was connected to WiFi. Turned off the WiFi, and told them to send them again and it received them that time. Maybe an issue when connected to a WiFi connection?

I think you have to be connected to data in order to receive a MMS message. Wifi will not work. You will get a notification but no picture.
Of course you can't receive a MMS over a wifi, the problem is that the phone is not switching over to mobile data to receive pictures while connected to wifi. I also have this problem.

I don't quite understand your statement. You say you can receive MMS over wifi but then you say the phone has to switch to data in order to receive the picture? How is that different that what I said?
Sorry, autocorrect stole my apostrophe t. I meant cant as in can not.
I have the same issue. The slide down text msg notification icon reported 3 texts from 3 different senders. When I clicked on the icon I am taken to my text msg inbox but only 2 of the 3 text msgs where there. I then verified with my friend that he did indeed send me a text msg. I have never had an issue receiving MMS texts over WiFi. I use WiFi exclusively at work and home. So I had created the same type of thread on the androidcentral forums.
That's exactly what happened to me today, twice! My girlfriend sent me three MMS, I got the first one and two notifications after. But when tapped, all I saw was the first MMS.
My connection was poor, I thought that could be the cause...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Yea I was wondering if it is a carrier issue or if its LG or Google ?
I think a part of the issue is that the phone creates the notification the moment it recognizes that there is an incoming MMS instead of when the MMS is actually received and able to be viewed.

Well that would be fine if it is a preview of the MMS before it arrives, but when it never arrives is where the problem is. There has got to be a solution. I can't help but wonder whom has sent me a text of which I did not receive.
this happens to me also. its annoying. but i do have my wifi on all the time, so I will try it without wifi on, and see what happens.
I'm having this problem as well and I don't like any of the third-party apps. Has anyone found a fix? Thanks.
Well, I contacted T-Mobile, my carrier, and they went through a lot of troubleshooting. It basically came down to turning on mobile data alongside WiFi because apparently MMS msgs need data to send and receive. Sucks, but there it is.
I got my Nexus 6p 3 days ago and activated it immediately on Project Fi. I'm having a major issue which Google's support doesn't seem to know how to fix and apparently they've "escalated it" and say that's it's a known issue. I can receive texts from anyone just fine but when I send them, only people on t-mobile's network (or one of the small companies that use their network) can receive individual texts from me. They can receive group messages from me just fine but they don't get anything when I send them individually. It shows that it was sent on my end (no errors in Hangouts).
I've tried using Messenger instead and nothing changes. Google tried to blame it on iMessage since some of my contacts have iphones but it occurs with contacts who have Android devices as well. To test the theory though, I had a friend turn off iMessage and it still didn't work. Google also had me deactivate and then reactivate my Google Fi service which did jack squat.
Any suggestions or similar experiences while Google is "trying to fix it"?

How would that even make sense? They are the only ones who receive texts from me...
Alright so for the past few weeks, I've been having issues sending SMS i'd send the message but the person wouldn't get the message till 20-30 minutes later. I called
T-Mobile multiple times about this issue and they reset some settings on their side but it would be every night starting at 10:30PM est til 2AM est. Whenever Tmo reset settings on their side SMS works. So a few days ago, I went to Tmo to get a new sim card and so did my girlfriend she got a new sim card who she has the
GS7 edge (T-Mobile) but any ways the problem has gotten worse and now im not sure what to-do. Weather a factory reset would fix the issue or changing the messaging app i've been using Google Messenger what else can I possibly do?
Try swapping SIM's with your girlfriend (Not sure what Sim the GS7E uses). See if the problem follows the SIM (IE, Your number/account) or the device. If your phone sends texts no problem with her SIM, Then it's not your phones problem. It's something to do with the provisioning on their (T-Mobiles) side. If it follows the phone. Compare the APN settings to your Girlfriends phone. They should match. If that all fails, You may want to try a factory reset.
I assume there is a way you could somehow see the message exiting the phone in a debug log somewhere. I'm not sure how one could do that. But I assume the phone will queue the message if it doesn't transmit. And you should be able to see that somewhere besides in the messaging app. I would also assume somewhere you can see why it's rejected by the local tower. I would imagine there is some kind of rejection message carried in signaling, But these are just my assumptions. I work in the carrier trunking business, Not the cell business. Haha.

it uses the nano sim that's actually not bad idea i'm going to try that, but before I did a factory reset on my N6P. I assume there could be a way to find out how to debug log it or anything to figure out what's going on, but i don't get since we got new sim cards why would it keep on doing it. Also that's why came here to see if anyone has been having the same issues with their N6P's on Tmo.

Well, My buddies got a N6P on T-Mobile here in Central Florida and has no issues.
I suggest swapping them SIM's because it tests the provisioning. The SIM's themselves are fine. Because they work at all. The bigger thing to test here is that your account/line is correct. And by swapping SIM's you're trying a known-good account. So it's less about the SIM being functional. And more about T-Mobile not having some kind of misconfiguration on your account. So let us know how it goes.
As for how to look into it further, Hopefully someone else can chime in. As that's outside my depth.

well about swapping SIM's would it matter that we are on the same account, the delayed messages won't start until night like around 10:30PM sometimes maybe later

Nope. Still a good test. Since they are different numbers / lines.
That's strange. I have a 6p on T-Mobile as well and haven't had those issues. Stock N ROM and using stock Messenger app.
I also work for T-Mobile, where do you live?

I live in South FL, Stock 6.0.1 MM using stock Messenger app. I went to a T-Mobile store and they said it was because my phone is a "Unlocked Phone" and they also blame it on the network is "congested" but my girlfriend she has the GS7 Edge and it only happens when i text her and it starts at 10:30PM messages get delayed but with the double texts they have always been like this. even when I had my N6 from T-Mobile. So now i'm not sure what to do, if a factory reset on my device or on her phone also or what....
On my 6p, no matter what settings or apps used, I had mms and sms issues whenever I had wifi calling turned on. My issues were late and undelivered messages. Had to turn off wifi calling.

I don't have wifi calling on, and now I have issues with calls the phone call breaks up. And I will have to hangup and try and call her back but it goes straight to voicemail til I wait 5 minutes then call again and she said it was the same for her, when she tried to call me back. It would go straight to voicemail after the call breaks up and there is all this feedback.
I am not able to send out SMS from my new nothing phone 1. Have tried trouble shooting with all solutions available in YouTube / Google / internet but still getting a reply 'not sent, tap to try again'
For sure you have a APN settings problem.
You must search your APN provider settings and check APN actual settings in your device
What is your provider ?

Also after switching on aeroplane mode on and off for 3 seconds I am able to send an SMS but after that no. Moreover switching to 3G helps me send SMS. Also to some contacts, I could send SMS but that's very rare. Due to this I cant even verify my bank account on gpay or paytm! Any fixes?

Sorry, the Country is India and the network is Vi (Vodaphone & idea)
I have the exact same issue below is the device info:
Country - India
Carrier - VI (Vodafone & Idea).
Config - 8/256GB Black variant.
OS - 1.1.2
Issue description - There is a delay in SMS(5-10 mins) and at times SMS fails to be send when using VI sim . Certain apps like Swiggy, Zomato works where it send OTP code to the registered number however issue happens when apps like banking (Axis/ICICI) sends SMS from device to their end, where it fails or gets delivered after some time and leads to a timeout situation.
From what I can see it is mostly when sending SMS and is specifically to VI Sim cards. I did not face such issue when using carrier - JIO.
Note - I was able to find a temporary walkaround with banking apps registration by selecting 3G as mentioned above and also on a separate thread. (it is a bit slow but seems to work for now).
For now have shared my issue with Nothing support I urge others who are affected to do the same as it will help to push for a fix.

yes, 3G works fine I tried it. Also maybe switching on aeroplane mode and then turning it off allows me to send SMS for a time period of 3-4 secs, that's how I verify the bank apps.
Are you planning to replace? (don't tell me that all of the np's have this issue).

I did not use the device much initially and by the time I found the issue it was too late ,replacement window expired and I don't feel that going to service center will provide much help.
Also I found a few more issues:
1)HDR videos on YouTube seems like a hit or miss most of the time, some videos lag at 4K HDR 60FPS else at times it gets stuck at 480P or just plays in normal mode without HDR option ; need to close and reopen app to temporarily fix the issue. But mostly with 4K HDR 60FPS videos this issue creeps in. Have tried YouTube Vanced, downgrading to older version but nothing helps.
2)There is also a bug with work profile where the button "text" is of a lighter shade and hence text is harder to read. This is only when dark mode is turned on but looks fine in light mode.
Have already performed multiple Factory Reset from Boot menu but issue remains. Also I am yet to receive any response from Nothing support for the concern I raised earlier.
At present I feel that it was a bad decision to buy this phone.
