Enhanced Messaging not turning on - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

Hey all!
I purchased my Essential phone brand new from Sprint yesterday. I switched from an S7. I'm trying to use the default android messages app (what I used on my S7) and I tried to enable enhanced messaging to receive stuff via WiFi. I get horrible reception at my desk in my office, so texting over WiFi is super helpful. Well, when I go to turn on enhanced messaging in the app, It just clocks, and eventually says "Excuse the wait... messages will let you know when this step is complete." I click "Got It", then it proceeds to do nothing...
Has anyone else figured how to turn on enhanced features on this device? Sprint is my carrier.

Has happened to me on all my devices I've owned when starting from a clean slate. Just give it time. Check back and reinitiate if needed. Think it has something to do with the carrier side network refresh to see your device or something.

Thanks for the quick reply! Very strange... Do you remember roughly how long it took for your's to communicate back to the carrier and get up and running?

Sorry, little bit longer on the reply this time. Lol. Busy day at work. But it's happened to me with different time lengths. It's been successful within 30 minutes and it's also taken up to 2 days. Sorry I can't be more help. Not sure of the technical side of things on what exactly causes it to know for sure and the fact that I'll just check it and it's done. Because of this, not always sure when exactly it went through either, just know that eventually it starts working and it's happened on my Essential and previous Nexus devices with Sprint, and that out of everything I'd try, time was the only thing that fixed it for me.

Hello I am experiencing the exact same issue with my new Essential phone through Sprint I purchased yesterday. Has your enhanced Features issue resolved itself yet? Any pointers? Sprint was absolutely no help.

[Q] Error sending/receiving MMS "National access coverage not available."

Hello,
Lately I have been unable to send or receive text messages that contain pictures or videos. The error message is always the same "National access coverage not available."
I called Verizon, on Thursday of last week (1-13), and the technician was unable to figure out the problem. He escalated it to the next level and said that someone would be contacting me in a day or 2. Well it's now Wednesday (1-19) of the following week and so far, nothing!
Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, what's the fix? Any help would be appreciated, especially since Verizon has been no help at all!
I'm using a Moto Droid2 ver, 2.3.2 Rooted and OC'd @ 2.25Ghz
Thanks,
Scott

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, it didn't work. I updated it waited the 15 minutes. When it didn't work I rebooted the phone figuring maybe it needed to be refreshed or something, (long time windows tech, reboot fixes everything!) but still nothing. Just that same message.
I get the exact same error when sending or receiving MMS 50 percent of the time with the first initial try... *228 does not fix this.. verizon cannot fix it either...
OK, got tired of waiting for Verizon to call back. On the phone with 2nd tier support now for about the last hour, so far nothing.
Mine started doing that on mms after using juice defender app and I had to do a factory reset to fix it.
OK, got finished with the Verizon tech, who was very helpful, but we still could not resolve the issue.
She removed and reloaded my data from the server, switched me to another IP address and did a few other behind the scenes things but nothing worked. She suggested doing the factory reset, but I'm ready to give up troubleshooting this issue yet. If all else fails, then I guess I will have no other option.
Since sending MM text's in not a huge part of what I use my phone for, I may just wait for the next release of the software and hope that fixes it.
In the mean time I'll just keep playing with settings and searching Google and the message boards in the hope that someone can come up with a fix that doesn't involve having to wipe it.

I used to use that app, but removed it long before this started happening. I wonder if it left behind some orphan files that are somehow in there wreaking havoc?
Since the problem still existed even running the phone in safe mode, I would think that would not be the case, but anythings possible.
my phone does the same thing with same message... if i try again to download message it will usually come through, but if it happens on outgoing message it will never go through

That's the thing. Since so many people are having the same or similar issue, I just find it hard to believe it's not something on Verizon's side or with their software. This many people screwing up their phone's in the exact same way all around the same time just seem a little suspect to me.
Mine happened 6 months ago. Just reset it and see what happens. All your apps with reinstall by themselves.

Yeah, I guess I'm going to have to try something. I want to make a nandroid backup first just to be safe and then I'll give it a shot.
Thanks.
This is great!
So, I just finished the factory reset (which DID fix the problem) and was starting to configure all my custom settings when the Verizon tech I spoke with called me back. She said that she had just spoken to Motorola and they said it was a known problem with their phones! They are not sure what it is yet, but they are working on it. In the mean time, the only thing they can suggest is to reset the phone as a work around!
I asked the Verizon tech if there was any kind of documentation about this that she could send me, but of course there isn't. And there's also nothing on the Motorola site about the error either, at least nothing I could find.
While it doesn't make the situation go away, it does make me feel better knowing what the root of the problem is, sort of. Only problem is, there is no guarantee that it won't happen again.
i turn airplane mode on then off... works for me
Im having the same problem. I even reflashed to stock motorola, still does it. I noticed if i hold down on failed pics or tap download a few times it works. The problem seems to be triggering the data on and off from the send button.

Yes, I had heard that worked for some people, and I did try that but it still didn't work. Even so, that would only be a work around and not really fixing the issue.

Interesting, since I did the factory rest I haven't had a problem. If it happens again, I'll be sure to check that.

[Q] No longer receiving sms in stock messaging app

Using stock sense and sprint/gv integration and i can receive texts in gv as well as send them from the stock messaging app and gv.
i've contacted sprint on the phone a couple times and got to the highest level tech support and they couldn't fix it. also tried the sprint store and they just want to give me another evo. they have one on order, but i'd much rather keep my rooted evo! the new one will likely have 2.3 installed stock and i'll need to wait for root.
this really doesn't seem like a hardware issue anyways, seems like it's a network side problem.
i've made sure sms forwarding is enabled to my mobile number on gv, tried factory and hard resets multiple times. tried unintegrating and reintegrating my sprint number with gv.
the weird thing is even when i'm unintewgrated and using just vanilla sprint i don't receive texts at all. i can send them, make and receive calls too but never does a text come to my phone.
there doesn't seem to be anyone else reporting this problem i8n my area.
phone is rooted, stock rom, the problem started after iu hard reset my phone. i was hoping a hard reset would fix some buis i was experiencing with the GB update. i can't say for sure this was because i hard reset, buit it's a huge coincidence that it happened at approximately the same time. i can't think of any logical reason the hard reset would affect my sms this way.
btw i installed a rooted version of 2.3.3 as well as the latest combo radio pack. that was over a week ago though and this issue just cropped up yesterday.
hopefully this post wasn't too jumbled and i gave enough info, any ideas?
edit: crap, should be in the Q&A forum, please move if necessary :/

Not what I was going through a few months back then, but I could make calls but not receive calls. I don't use GV either so probably not the same issue. Just thought I would ask, turns out those issues for me was my 3G going out on my phone. Ended up getting it replaced.
Hope you find a solution, I know how frustrating it is.

sprint is ordering me another phone, hoping against it being a refurb, though then i likely have to wait for a new root method for gingerbread.
preferably they'd get it working on my current evo. i really think it has to be a network issue.

You should be good, I had two replacement refurbs as early as last week and they both had 3.7 on them. Watch for the sunspot on the screen when it boots initially (bright white spot in the lower half towards the middle), both of the refurb replacements had the bad screen. You can't see it if it boots all the way..you'll have to go to a bright screen to see it but it will just get worse to where you will see it all the time. Finally the rep gave me a NIB 004..also 3.7. Just make sure they don't update it, I would ask if you could do the activation as well so you can look for the screen issue on initial boot. Good Luck! Guess I didn't have to quote due to it being right above mine...lmao
Think they'll give me any trouble if I turn in my phone still rooted? I don't feel like unrooting it, not to mention if the new/refurb doesn't fix my issue I'm going to keep my current evo anyways.
I mean they've already approved me for the replacement.
I had the same problem
I had the exact same situation happen last weekend. All I did to fix it was to flash back to a Stock Sense 2.2 ROM, Update Profile/PRL, and then open EPST and Reset Data connection using THIS little tutorial.

Ya..did all that and then some to mine..no dice. But good advice. Hardware issue won't be solved by software no matter the method I found out. Believe me..even went as far as unrooting and seeing if stock would be the same..it was.
The unrooting process is very easy and with the replacement coming in, why not. Sounds like hardware anyway. Here is what I did to go back and forth:

doesn't seem like hardware at all to me though. and if that's the case and I unroot and end up keeping this phone i just shot myself in the foot by locking my bootloader.
i wish i would have had them try activating another phone today to see if another phone would be able to receive the texts.
No need to unroot! Go to voice.google.com, click on the "gear" icon to go into Voice Settings. Find your gv/sprint phone number, click Edit and check the checkbox for "receive text messages on this device." Hit save, and enjoy.

MikG INC 3.0 ROM on roaming

I had downloaded 1 of Mik's roms a while back (version 2.0.1 to be exact) and saw this 3.0 as his latest work on his website so figured I would give it a try. I see that he is aware that there are still remnants of this ROM that was made for Sprint EVO devices apparently, but I'm having a unique issue.
Whenever I attempt to make a call it alerts me that I am in roaming mode (which I double checked and i have it checked OFF so my DINC will dont roam) and if I would like to continue anyway. When my lock screen comes up it says "Verizon Network" on top and I am receiving and able to send text messages just fine. I have not seen anyone else having this issue in the forums and the last thing I want is to receive a higher bill from Verizon at the end of the month because of a new ROM. Also, the alert is simply annoying.
Please help.

Sounds like you need to update your prl. You do this by dialing *228 and selecting option 2.
I forgot to mention that that's the first thing I did. I even accepted the alert and went with it anyway knowing it wouldn't take but a minute. It programmed the phone successfully.
Still occuring obviously.

Hmm not sure then. I know sprint ported roms tend to be touchy on the verizon network. I gave up on using them after synergy rom awile back, because my data connection would constantly break, requiring a compleete ruu and factory reset to get it working again. Just flashing a new rom wouldnt fix it.
Have you tried flashing the .0808 evo radio. I know it works on the incredible and mabey since its a sprint ported rom the evo radio would work better, or mabey not just a sugestion.
Its in call settings or wireless and networks. It's called roam guard. Unchecked it and you'll be fine.

I actually had to turn ON data roaming to check off Data Roam Guard. It didn't work. But out of desperation I checked OFF Call Guard and that fixed it. Maybe that's the option that you meant. Either way, the alert has stopped and my outgoing calls no longer give me that message while I have roaming OFF.
Thanks for the replies.

Doing this on sprint ROMs have a tendency to break data. I don't recommend doing this. Also other development don't recommend it either. If you start having data issues, you may need to go back to stock, redo *228, the reflash what you want. I'm currently running my port of MikG 3.0 and have not had the warning. I did what you have done and its fine. I've made sure that the NETWORK thinks we are in fact Verizon, but the ROM somehow thinks we are Sprint.

Just got this phone, two questions

So, I'm liking this phone so far, we switched from tmo and I went from a m8 to this. Two annoyances, first, is there any way at all to dim the soft button lights, only at night? OMG they were bright last night while laying in bed! From what I can find, it's either 100% or totally disabled. I don't mind them during the day, but not at night. That's just stupid to me.
And another, what I think is major annoyance that just happened. It seems Sprint pushed a bunch of apps down to my phone automatically! I went through all my apps to log in and do all the setup stuff and then rebooted my phone. Now all of a sudden, I've got music players, tv players, support chat, etc., all Sprint branded! WTF?!? Are they going to keep doing this? Is there a way to stop this?
And now another thing...
It turns out that I cannot send or receive picture messages while on wifi. Sprint doesn't seem to know why and is blaming my wifi connection. No, that's not it. It's not slow (100+mb), there are no connection limits, my wife can do this just fine on wifi, we could do it before, etc. WTF????
More info, just found that if I turn off WiFi Calling, things work fine. Never had this problem with tmo....
One last update on the mms issue. Looks like I can't send via wifi. I disabled mobile data and still have the problem. So, with Sprint or the S7 you can't send mms messages via wifi? What's up with that?
1. the lights can be shut off with an app called Galaxy Lights not sure they can be dimmed without root
2. Try package disabler pro you can disable all of those Sprint apps and they wont be in your app drawer
3. Not being able to send MMS is 100% the device, It has worked for me on every device Ive ever owned. Try a factory reset just in case something got botched on the intial set up.
Are you using hangouts to try and send mms? If so, try another messaging app.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Free mobile app
I like to use mysms as default messaging app, but MMS gets stuck when I use it for default app. I have to go back to stock messaging and it works just fine so something might be borked with 3rd party apps for MMS. Another problem is if you change from the default messaging app, notifications for unread text on the always on display stop working.
Try textra, it has an option for sending/receiving over WiFi, I'm not sure if it works with the always on feature.

1. Yeah, I don't want them off, just dimmed or maybe be able to turn off just at night automatically.
2. I'll look into that one. I'd rather remove them to free up space, but if that's not an option, then this is the next best best.
3. Ug, I literally spend most of the day yesterday configuring all my apps (signing in, settings, notifications, etc.); I really hate to reset and go through all that crap again.

I went to the store today and after an hour and a half of them trying to figure it out and Googling it, they came to conclusion that it cannot be done. Can anyone with an S7 confirm that they can send a picture message over wifi alone or with wifi calling enabled? I don't believe their claims.

Well after talking to Sprint again and Samsung, it looks like it's an issue with Google Messages and Hangouts. Using the Samsung texting app, things work as expected. I thought I checked that before, but obviously not.
Much (but not all) of the Sprint bloatware can be uninstalled, not just disabled. Look at them one by one in the Application manager.

Yeah, I've been able to disable or remove most of it. But there are still a few lingering apps that I can't do either on. Also, they seem to like to push apps down to my phone. Just got something called sprint id the other day (just showed in the notification bar that it was installed). But I don't even see that in my app manager.

Bad reception - Delayed text messages - Rooted phone the cause?

Hello!
I have trouble with my One plus 6 t receiving text messages. I receive them a day late, all coming through at the same time in a bulk of messages the next day. I changed my sim card so T mobile doesn't seem to be the cause of it. Are these problems because I rooted my phone? If so what is the solution? Thank you!
My 6T is also rooted and at one point I has service issues (on Verizon) I tried all my mods one at a time till I figured out witch mod caused it and I was shocked to find out it was my substratum themes messing with something. Once removed all was grand. Hope this help. Go one by one through any mods in place disabling them see if it helps.

The problem is that I have a lot of apps...Did you disable them one by one? And also I realise that I receive the delayed messages 1 day after so it's not easy to check. So the problem comes from the fact that my phone is rooted? Also when I use the camera my phone closes sometimes, like 30 sec after...Very weird. Does all this come from the rooting? Never heard of this problem before.
Yes I did dilisabled one at a time and rebooted after each one. And for text delay who is your carrier I'm on Verizon and mine was delayed for a hour or so till I figured it out I'd quick text my self hi from my own number and hit home to close the messages app out so I could time the reply time.
This helped me also.

I don't think so, I've been using Google messenger since I got this phone without issues whatsoever!

Try turning off battery Optimization See if that helps, Could be just a delay with your signal... Had that happen before, I had full signal but everything was delayed.
I have similar issue to receive delayed messages after the latest Open Beta 12. Stock message app on unrooted 6T.

Hello,
So the problem comes from the fact my phone is rooted? Yesterday it was impossible to take a video correctly for example my phone was shutting of every 30 seconds, and the mobile phone network bar disappeared, then came back and so on, like if I was losing the network every 30 seconds. I'll try to do a video of this

This is not normal. I've been rooted for months and do not have these problems. There is something else wrong
Just being rooted wouldn't be the issue. Sometimes it's honestly as simple as resetting your network settings. As for camera issues have you modified your camera in any way, possibly added a magisk module or something that isn't compatible with our phones, outdated modules can sometimes cause issues as well. It's hard to pinpoint but rooting isn't the issue as these phones were designed for rooting. It's something else entirely. You said your on T-Mobile, was it branded T-Mobile? They like to put their own bloated apps on phones that could probably cause issues too. This is why I went straight to the actual company. You get more up to date and their warranties better than tmobiles. Without knowing what's on your phone I can just speculate. But no just rooting and unlocking bootloader isn't causing this issue

I bought it from One plus directly, not T mobile. I resetted the network settings a lot of times and it still does the same thing. I noticed it happens more when several applications are opened, like when I watch a youtube video and do something at the same time. But even after closing youtube app and all my other apps, it does the same thing. On magisk I have: Busybox for Android, Energized protection, Google product sans, IOS 12.1 emoji, systemless hosts, viper4android, youtubevanced.
I've noticed that being on WiFi causes phone network issues (e.g., phone calls going straight to voicemail, text messages being delayed). This is with WiFi calling disabled, and a non-rooted phone. Really not sure what's going on here, especially because when it happens, my network signal is just fine. But if I disable WiFi, the delayed texts come in immediately. Super annoying.
This is on T-Mobile, latest beta (I think version 11).

I do not see this wifi call option on my one plus 6t.
I have these options: "turn on Wi-Fi automatically" , "Smart Wi fi switcher", "scanning always available", nothing else

It's in an overly annoying menu to find lol. Settings -> Wi-Fi and Internet -> SIM & Network -> SIM 1 (T-Mobile (for me)) -> then under Enhanced Communication you'll see "Wi-Fi Calling"
