Verizon Messages App doesn't display incoming texts

The VERIZON MESSAGES APP doesn't display all incoming messages.
This is true for the WEB APP i use on my windows 7 PC
Iv'e tried multiple browsers and this does not help
It is also a problem with both my android tablets running the google play app from verizon
I'm not sure but, it appears that maybe this is related to ATT users.

This does NOT work on the Galaxy S3.
Airplane mode ON, Wifi ON, No network mode is available in Airplane mode. So...only wifi is available. When I try to send a text with only wifi available I get "Network not available. The message will be sent when the network is available"
BUT...On my Galaxy Tab 2 (non-verizon), This DOES work. On the tab 2 with only wifi available, I CAN send text messages using Verizon Messages.
So....again...
On Galaxy Tab 2 with only WiFi available...texting with Verizon messages DOES work.
On Galaxy S3 with only WiFi available...texting with Verizon messages DOES NOT work.
Please fix Verizon Messages to work over WiFi using Galaxy S3.
Thanks,
Abe

Verizon messages app doesn't work over wifi....

Hello, all,
Until recently, I used the verizon messages app to send/receive texts over wifi on my gs3 when I had no cellular/data reception. Now it will only send/rec when there's cell reception.
But...the app does still work over wifi onmy galaxy tab 2 7.0.
Why could this be? Did a recent app update break txt over wifi for the gs3?
Thanks!

When I get a text message from my brother or sister who have IPhones there is no text but there is a "download" button. If I tap the download button it beeps but there is no download. My galaxy note 4 uses verizon messages app. how do I get these text

when I get a text message from my brother or sister who have IPhones there is no text but there is a "download" button. If I tap the download button it beeps but there is no download. My galaxy note 4 uses verizon messages app. how do I get these text messages?

Picture messages without a texting plan are 25 cents each. Better than the $1.99 or $2.99 from the online store....
Attaching to an email would not work as mobile email does "do" attachments.
Sending to your online album will use text messages, I believe. Better to use a micro SD card, save to the card, and transfer them to your computer that way.

Messages getting reordered in the Verizon Messaging app

My text messages are getting reordered within the Verizon Messages app. For example, I'll send a text message, and someone will reply, which will display correctly. Then when I send another text, the other person's reply will get moved above my original text. It seems to happen if the texts occur within the same minute.

Jayohdee, Did deleting the old conversations work for you? This just started happening to me in Verizon Messaging as well, and I noticed that the date of my sent messages AND received messages was off, like yday was the 25th of Dec. My messages back to everyone says 12/12/2014... instead of 13/25/2014... I checked my phone's clock and date and it is all correct, but what you explained above is still happening to my messages.
Thanks so much.

Is there a way to send the contact list from my flip phone to the Verizon Messages app on my tablet?

I have a Convoy flip phone. I recently installed the Verizon Messages app on my iPad Air, since it's a pain in the neck to type texts on the phone. With the app on my tablet, I can easily send (and receive) texts. But is there a way to sync or send the contact list (phone book) from my flip phone to the Verizon Messages app on my tablet? Thanks.

Hi daniel1948,
Thanks for using our forums! While there are ways to get contacts from your phone onto your tablet, the Convoy series of phones is not capable of syncing directly with the Verizon Messages service. It is capable of using the Backup Assistant service. You'll find this option under Contacts in the menu. Once you have backed up the contacts, you can use your online My Verizon account to export contacts to either a Google or iCloud account, which would allow you to access them from your iPad at a later time via sync. Here's a link with some useful information on how to use the Backup Assistant service.

Can't get the updated Verizon Messages app to work on wifi as the update claims it will

I received the update to the Verizon Messages app yesterday and when I opened it, it said the smartphone will now send and receive text messages over wifi when the cellular network is not available. I have been unable to make this work and I contacted Verizon and the tech said that obviously it will not work on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, but it said it will work on my device when I look at the app store. Any ideas?

Yesterday morning, the icon appeared telling me that Message+ was connected to WIFI, however, all day today, I would have it show that I had messages, I would look on my pulldown and it would show that I had messages, but when I went to the app, the messages had disappeared. The same thing has been happening with my email. The native email app would not pull down my mail folders, so I had to load a 3rd party app the does pull them down, but then it loses emails. This is the 2nd Note 3 I have had. My original started giving me a black screen when I tried to answer a call and I would have to reboot the phone and call them back. Now this replacement loses email and messages. In my business, these are very important. Not sure what I am going to do, not happy with my choice of phones at this point. Thank you for offering to look into the problems for me, I appreciate it.

Using Verizon Messages app on iPad mini: Accessing Verizon contact list

I am a dumbphone Verizon user. I have an extensive contact list in my phone. I use the Verizon Backup Assistant to make sure I don't lose it. I frequently use the browser version of Verizon Messages as some of the smartphones send me text messages containing graphics I cannot see on the dumbphone. This has been working great for me. My dumbphone Contacts pull up nicely. I assume this is pulling from the Backup Assistant database (Verizon Cloud?).
Enter the tablet. I now have an iPad mini. I've installed the Verizon Messages app. The Integrated Messaging is working as expected and I can access messages from all three devices (dumbphone, tablet, PC). However, with the iPad app I am unable to see my Contacts. Is there some form of syncing that I need to initiate between Verizon Messages on the iPad and Verizon Backup Assistant? Does anyone have tips in this area?
I do not sync any contacts to the iPad Contacts. I have so many different contact lists (Gmail, three personal email accounts, two work email accounts, dumbphone contacts, ...) that I just wouldn't know where to begin. Plus I like having them segregated because there are SO many different people in these lists. I just want to access my dumbphone contacts with the iPad Verizon Messages app.
Input appreciated. Thank you.

StFuz,
Lets get those text tones customized to just how you want them! It's going to be easy to get them just how you want them. Please open your Phone app, then select a contact from your All Contacts list. Tap Edit at the top right corner, then scroll down to customize the Text Tone. I apologize, but this is available in the native Message app for the iPhone only. Verizon Messages does not support this feature in iPhones at this time.

Verizon Message App & Integrated Messaging

Summary of problem: Have 2 phone lines on account. Both phones have their own separate account login user ID and password. Have 2 separate wireless iPads.
Several weeks ago I installed the Verizon Message application on my iPad and everything worked great. I am the account holder. I was so happy to find this application. I then tried to install the application on my wife's iPad and encountered problems. Downloaded the app to iPad, put in second phone line number, belonging to wife who is designated Account Manager, requesting text message authentication. Received texted code and entered in the app. Told app to authenticate and log in. App sends authentication then returns an error. 1st Error message says "Error OK" then second message comes up saying "Disconnected - This device has been disconnected from the Integrated Messaging service. D0 you wish to browse your messages offline or erase all messages from the device and reconnect?
Choices: Browse Offline? Erase & Disconnect? Neither choice gives any result.
Numerous requests both through voice and text ended up with much trouble shooting and finally a first trouble ticket being initiated. This trouble ticket # unknown was closed with no trouble found. Again after numerous texts, chats, and voice contact, another trouble ticket #removed was issued on 12/21/13.This ticket generated several texts with tech's trying to resolve problem and as far as I know the ticket is still open pending resolution. I have been out of town and not heard anything further regarding the status of this ticket. The problem still exists. Have not been able to contact Verizon through chat or voice as they are always busy lately.
Additionally, the second phone line is unable to log into the Integrated Messaging web app in My Verizon using its own user ID and PW. I also downloaded the mobile version of this application to the second phone and experienced the same error messages.
Would like to hear from others who have this problem and any input they may have regarding the issue. I realize that the holidays sidetracked a lot of people, but this is really getting old. Will continue to try to contact tech support.

Verizon Message+ App

My contact pictures show up in Contacts as well as the Android Messaging app, but not in Verizon's Message+ app. I would love to use the Message+ app for my messaging, but it's really annoying without the contact pictures not showing up. Is there a solution for this? I've checked around and several forum users are having the same issue but not getting solutions.
I have a few pictures showing up - those that are linked to my Google account. Any of my G+, Facebook, or Twitter contacts that are in my messaging do not have their contact pictures displayed.
Using a Samsung Galaxy S5.
Thanks!

Twitchy,
i appreciate you taking the time to reach out to us. I understand the importance of having the best options available. Currently the Verizon Messaging app does not have the option to sync other mediums photos with the contact photo. It only will use photos that were previously stored for that specific contact. I would be happy to forward this suggestion forward for improvement options. Please let us know if you need anymore assistance.
Thank you,

Firefox doesn't display some text on certain pages.

I've noticed that on some pages, Firefox doesn't display certain text. I have the newest version of Firefox installed and my flash and java are updated. The text displays fine on Chrome and IE. Please see my example in the screenshots of the stevenson.edu webpage. Does anybody know what I can do to fix this problem or if there is some sort of plugin I am missing to display certain content? Thanks.

HT1688 Is there an "easy" way to either 1) cut and paste a large block of text from the Messages app or 2) access this text through a computer?

Set-up ? regarding Verizon Message+ app

I have recently installed Verizon's Message+ text messaging app and I like it. One thing I like a lot is how when I get a text message and it beeps to let me know I have a message when I turn on the screen of my Galaxy Note3 the message is already there and open, it doesn't first make me open the app and check it there. WILL THE APP ALSO DO THIS? In addition to this feature I would like it even more if the app would activate (turn on the screen) so when I take the phone out of it's case to check the beep the screen would already be on with the message displayed. In that way I would not have to push a button to turn on the screen first.
Thanks in advance... Bob

If I have the desktop version running on my computer, I do get a pop up with the message on my computer screen.

Battery life would be dismal if the screen turned on and stayed on for each message received. I'd rather take one second or less to push a button than have the screen on until I could get to it.
Thanks in advance... Bob

Why won't Verizon Messages app work on phone with Wi-Fi only?

I've successfully downloaded and installed the app from Google Play on a phone of mine that I only use wi-fi on. There is no cellular service to this particular device. It's set to airplane mode, with wi-fi on, essentially making it a 4.5 inch tablet, or like an android equivalent to an iPod touch. When I start the app though, it displays the screen shown in the included screenshot, and won't let me connect to the service, despite the fact that a wi-fi connection is present. I've seen that this is an issue that some others have had. I have Verizon service with my main phone, I'm not sure why the app that supposedly lets you access your texts via wifi will only do that on tablets or phones with cell service. Is there any way to get this working? Will there be any updates to allow the functionality that I'm looking for? I've read that it was present at one time, so why the change?

According to the Verizon website you are wrong.
Verizon Messages - Verizon Wireless
It states "
Use Wi-Fi to send and receive messages on your smartphone, tablet, PC, Mac and web browser"
I find personally that you are correct, is the website designed to mislead us? it is the same on the play store for google.
The difference is not just in one place, it is everywhere it is advertised. So it was meant to work but to charge customers the function was removed is my understanding.

Why is the Verizon ellipsis 8 not compatible with verizons messaging app

Love to understand why the Verizon texting app is not compatible with the ellipsis 8 ? I bought this Tablet to replace my old Samsung Galaxy tablet that died from over use. I was told this tablet was a very comparable it is not. Texting has to be linked to a smart phone (another purchase) ellipsis has it own number and should support it own texting
What up with this?? As I see it just another marketing ploy
