This has been happening for at least 2 to 3 years and it is only getting worse. If I send/receive too many MMS texts within a short period of time all future MMS messages Phil, both send and receive for around 10 to 15 minutes (in rare occasions for a few hours).
Details:
It has been happening for 2 to 4 years
It happens on all texting apps including the stock app, Google messages, messages plus etc using the VZW network. All messaging services that use data work fine.
It has been happening on multiple devices and multiple software updates. It is happened on three different Pixel 3, a pixel 7 pro and the Galaxy s21
It can happen in any group of users. No specific user seems to cause it.
Never occurs with iPhones in the same house or neighborhood. Whether they are on iMessage or the Verizon network for MMS.
A couple years ago it was only happening on the network, but now it even happens when I am on Wi-Fi.
I have reset network settings three times, restored phones, and done every basic troubleshooting step both with and without a Verizon tech on the phone or in chat.
Nothing fixes it except waiting 15 minutes.
Current phone: Pixel 7 pro
Current app: Google messages
Please dear God somebody actually escalate this to someone who can solve the problem or I'm going to have to leave Verizon and I Do. Not. Want. To.

I was able to find a forum that had a solution that has worked for me anytime this happens. It's definitely not a FIX which Verizon needs to solve, but it's worth a shot to get your phone to send/receive mms texts.

So does it solve the ongoing problem? Or does it just get your phone back to being able to send MMS messages quicker?
- My start working again after 15 minutes nearly every time.
