Hello @PER527,


Welcome, and thank you for bringing this to our attention via the Community Forums! This is a very odd issue, but I can definitely take a look into it.


Have you heard of our Troubleshoot & Resolve Tool? If not, I highly recommend trying it! Once open, choose your device and select Messaging under Service/network issues. Answer all the questions as accurately as possible to receive the best resolution.


Resetting network settings is also a great way to troubleshoot network related issues. You can do this by going to Settings > Backup & Reset > Reset Network Settings; ensure you restart the device after doing this. You might need to re-enter your Wi-Fi password to reconnect to your wireless network.


You can also try turning off Advanced Messaging to see if it helps; to do this go to Messages app > Menu > Settings > Advanced Messaging > Off. Restart the device then test to see if it works.


If you need any more assistance after completing this, please let us know!
