View 5 RepliesJust got the Galaxy S6 a few days ago with Verizon. I'm using the samsung messaging app it came with, and noticed that every text that I receive from someone that is more than 160 characters gets split up, rather than sending as one long one or showing as one long text bubble, I'll 2, 3, 4 message notifications.

It's not really a big deal, but it's a little annoying.
However just today, a long text message was sent and I got 8 messages/8 notifications. And each message definitely had only 60 or 70 characters. Was this because it was so long that it was spit up into 8, but then why were they not split up into 160 characters?
Why am I receiving split text messages on my iPhone4 from someone who is on another carrier and uses a device other than an iPhone?
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
The Galaxy S6 has a stunning, 5.1-inch display and you can have more than one app on it at the same time using the split screen function. All you have to do is hold down the apps or multitasking button at the bottom left for a couple of seconds. The bottom half of the screen will display a menu of apps you can choose from and the top half will go on displaying whatever it was displaying. If you want to change the space allocated, drag the icon in the middle up or down. You can also access more options, such as the option to flip, window, or close apps, by tapping on the circle.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo my co-worker has a Galaxy S5. When he goes to play a video from the stock gallery app the actual video plays in a split window and the other half is just the gallery. There is a white dot in the middle but when I press it there is no Maximize icon like on my Note 4. There are three icons and one of them puts the video into a smaller floating window. No matter what we have tried he cannot play the video full screen. I tried to replicate this on my Note 4 using the stock gallery app and the stock video player. I can't get it to do the same thing or how to fix his S5 so he can view videos using the full display. It appears that one side is the video selector and the other side actually plays the video. I had him download MX Player and when he goes to the gallery, selects a video, then chooses MX as the player, the video still plays in a separate window.

We've recently switched over from Sprint to AT&T (very relieved!) and ported our numbers. We upgraded from HTC Evo 4g LTE's to Galaxy s6's. I have one contact who is also on the AT&T network and for some reason cannot receive any texts from her, either SMS or MMS. She has an iPhone (not sure if 5 or 6). She can receive my text and reply, and it appears to her that they are sent but I never receive them. Here is what we have tried so far:
1. Contacted AT&T tech support. He rebroadcasted my number just in case.
2. AT&T tech checked that all three numbers were ported correctly
3. AT&T tech had me call my friend from my wife's phone and we all three had a convo via speaker phone and tested between my wife's phone and my friends phone, both SMS and MMS with pictures worked fine.
4. Checked that I didn't have her contact blocked in any way.
5. Tried having her turn off iMessage and text, nothing. Tried having her send as SMS, nothing.
6. We deleted each others contact and re-added, nothing.
7. I called AT&T porting (they have their own number) he checked and everything was ported correctly and finalized.
8. probably tried a couple of other things but to no avail
Other than this issue, the phones are fantastic, the network is fantastic.

Also some of my sent ones are showing up twice on my phone (not twice to the recipient though). I have tried to search online and cannot come up with a resolution.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy Samsung Galaxy S5 will notify me I have a text and it shows up in the task bar. I can pull the task bar down to read it. After I close the task bar it's like the text never existed. The text does not show up in the messages app either.
I have tried clearing out the memory and several reboots. I also installed a virus protection program in case it was that. I went back to the plain messages app from the messenger plus, that did not do the trick either. Nothing seems to work.
So I bought my S5 a few months ago, from T-Mobile. Recently, I unlocked the phone and switched over to AT&T. Now I've noticed that I'm not receiving all of my text messages. I can't figure out any real pattern, I just know that I'm not getting all of the texts people are sending me, but most of them are going through. Also, I've received several messages reading "122 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. 0605040710000041637469766174653A64743D3135" ....

View 4 Replies View RelatedI got a Samsung Galaxy S6 and I have to say, it's the worst cellphone I ever owned. I don't care about all the fancy stuff. I need a phone so people can call me and send me text messages. But that simply doesn't work. I never get phone calls nor text messages, when I restart the phone, I got tens of messages telling me about missed phone calls.
View 2 Replies View Relatedthe text messages seem to be frozen with the little blue circle working and just giving me the message "sending"..i haven't had this problem with other messages, only a few. the messages are not very long at all and no pictures or anything, just text messages.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy Galaxy S6 has been great except for one huge problem I've noticed. Random text messages disappear. And they don't just disappear inconspicuously.. they disappear AS I'M READING THEM.
I will get a message, open up the messaging app, start reading it, get halfway through it, and BAM, the message vanishes and it never comes back.
Restarting the phone doesn't bring it back, it's just gone. I know that some messages disappear because I SEE them disappear, but what gets me is how many messages have a missed that have been sent, and my phone just makes them vanish before I read or even notice them?
Here's a video showing a message disappearing on my Galaxy S6.
I am having troubles with my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925W8 running Android 5.1.1. Ever since I upgraded to 5.1.1 I have sometimes been unable to receive text messages. This never used to happen with the older version of software I ran when I first got my device, and it is becoming rather annoying.
At random times I cannot receive text messages, and I have found the only way to 'spur' my device to receive messages would be to sending one. But this can be rather tedious, because if I haven't received a text in a while I'm not sure if it's my phone acting up again (so I must send a random text to try and download the waiting texts) or I just genuinely have not received a text.
I would like to know how can I send pictures from my Galaxy S6 Edge using text messages to my contacts.

How can I restore it to black text? I haven't found anything on this in the online manuals.
