I cannot receive any the verification codes from Facebook.  I can receive verification codes from any other source.  This problem began this week, it worked fine in the past.

Verizonuser66, is this for two-factor authentication when logging in to the account?

I had this same problem, here'smy fix: I just got a new phone. Facebook had my prior carrier (Sprint) as well as my phone number saved, so FB thinks some other Carrier/App had hijacked my number now that it's on Verizon. Thankfully, I was already logged into facebook on my computer and/or older phone/tablet, so a notification there will arise asking if the new phone is really me. I confirmed it. On my computer, I also went into FB Settings, then Security, then removed my phone number, and then re-added it. I instantly got a SMS on my new phone, and a log in code. Perhaps you could try even logging in on your new phone before adding your number back in the Security section. I have re-enabled sms 2 factor authentication and things are fine now. (User reviews on Google Play store say do not use Google Authenticator since it is tied to your thumbprint stored on your phone  and can be lost if your phone is ever lost).

Some people are saying change your Samsung sms app to something else, such as the stock app Verizon Messages+ and the code sms will show up if you open the VM+ app. It's worth a try.
