""Unfortunately Messaging Has Stopped"

[Shoulders]

I am using the standard app. I have never used the amazon software. I have a lot of apps on the phone I do not need, nor want, but I can't delete. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you are using kit kat 4.4.2 that is the reason why it stopped, it is causing more damage then i have ever seen

i have gone thru 4 CPO phones in 3 months it is overheated my phone, killed the battery in less then 2 hours

makes apps stop working as well as i cant get the screen to turn on nor can i go into safe mode

go to the google play store and download the verizon messanger it is free that is the only thing that will work with the kit kat problem

bjkimbrell1 lets get this issue corrected! Are you using the standard messaging app or a 3rd party? How long have you been experiencing difficulty?

I called Verizon 3 days ago. It'd Bern messed up every since. And I'm using

the app I've always used the one that came with the phone.

It's an issue between Motorola's and the new KitKat update. As mentioned earlier, the update is scheduled for sometime near the end of June.

Please let us know when this is fixed. I have missed many important text messages also. It is very frustrating as I too use this for work.

I am having the same problem on my Droid Mini, and it just started last week.   It is driving me mad, and it must be an issue between Motorola and a recent update, since it appears that every Droid user on this forum is experiencing it.  There are multiple threads on here about it, and every one has multiple messages from Verizon to clear cache, clear data, force stop, factory reset, etc, and it is not fixing the problem.    We need a fix to this and soon - we are paying for texting and should be able to send and receive.   Who knows how many messages we've all missed by now?   Verizon, please let us know what's happening and when a fix can be expected.

Been having same issue for past 2 weeks with maxx.  Done most steps and nothing has worked. Should I download another app and set as default? Any eta on fix? Very annoying.
