I have a droid maxx. About a month ago, my phone, and my husband's Moto X, and my son's Droid Mini, all had problems with the native text messenger program shutting down repeatedly. A friend at work had same sudden problem at same timeframe. I called Verizon support and they said there were no known issues with messenger (contrary to all the problems people report here). We all changed to the verizon messenger app, which is OK, but I like the interface with the native app better. However, today, I started getting an old text from my son (with picture attached) about every minute on the messenger app - I have gotten the message probably over 100 times. I finally switched back to the native messenger, and of course it started shutting down immediately. I powered my phone off and back on, cleared the cache of the messenger app, uninstalled an reinstalled the messenger app, and even did a hard reset on my phone - no improvement. My son does not see the messeges as having been sent from his end, which makes me suspect the problem is all on my end. He is clearing the caches though to see if it helps. Does anyone have a solution, or know of another messenging app that might work for my phone?
Thanks!
