Trying to ditch Google messages without success. I hung onto the old Samsung app forever but it is super buggy for me. I tried to switch to textra, bought the paid version, but keep getting this “MMS timeout” message so idk if im not getting or sending messages correctly. Have tried all the fixes i found online to no avail. So, is there any real, decent alternative to Google messages?
Im honestly fine without RCS I just dont know how ti get rid of the error message
Oh shit, I missed that part in the post. Go into settings/mms/mms advanced and turn down the carrier send limit. It’s trying to send it in too big of chunks so your carrier blocks it
I cant find that option. Maybe being stupid about it? I have a samsung s25
Open up textra itself like youre going to text someone but havent chosen who yet, hit the three dots in the top right, settings, under messaging is MMS. Carrier send limit is in there.
So far so good! Thank you so much for that!
Sorry, should have specified textra settings lol glad it’s working!
Unfortunately I got the error message again, so I guess that isn’t the fix?
Try setting it to the very lowest and very highest and have a friend send you an image for each.
I set it to 100kb and got the Pic fine and then 2000kb and got the image fine. I previously set it to no limit.
Unfortunately I got the error message again, so I guess that isn’t the fix?
Thank you!! I tried it and will report back. It would be awesome if this works and I dont have to go back.
