Hi, 

 

Is anyone having trouble with text messages. I chose the Samsung message app and i can send texts but cannot receive any. 

The Google messages app built in i think is causing the issues but i cannot uninstall it. 

 

I have tried using the Google app but is a right mess, message from the wrong person in conversations.

I did that and it still said registration failed. And now I can't even send messages threw wifi. I have had nothing but issues since I got this brand new phone. Maybe your people should fix the issues and put out an update. I've already had it replaced because you guys told me my phone was defective but my new one does the same thing. I have been a Samsung customer for for more then 10 years. And this is the first time I've had so many issues with a phone I want to throw it at a wall.

Hi Mandy, yes the rich communications cured mine. I think the Google texts clash too. Through apps I beleive I forced stop and made samsung texts my default. I'll have a look later for you and get back to you.

Hi Mandy, I did disable the Google messages then made the Samsung my default, I did this though Apps in the settings? Then do the rich communications process. Hope this works
