Reply to comment by inaneshane in The OnePlus 11 shows its stuff early in an 11th-hour 2022 debut by thebelsnickle1991

I just spent a few days fixing my MMS after my OnePlus 7 Pro updated to Android 12. Sure it's 3 years old, but ... that's not that old. The issue ended up being that the Messages app in the update was bugged so had to switch to the one that Google puts out on the play store.

What problems were you having? My OnePlus 8 messages have been bugged so I can't participate in group messages properly

Sounds like basically the same issue with MMS messages not working (MMS is the protocol for sending pictures in messages but they also use it for doing group messages). Solution for me was to download "Messages by Google" in the Play Store and use that as my messaging app instead - drop-in replacement and it worked.

Thanks for the advice. I'll give that a try since it sounds like I've been having the exact same problem

Yo!! I think I'm dealing with exactly this right now! My messages app is insanely slow and laggy to the point where opening a conversation can take 20 seconds and there are times the things I'm typing don't show up. It also takes ages for a message to send and lord help me if I'm receiving one at the same time. If this was similar to what you went through, how did you end up fixing it? Please. It's making me feel like my phone is unusable

I was using the default messages app that came with the phone. Instead look for "Messages by google" in the play store and download that. In setting it up, you can set it as your default messaging app. Then just like, remove the shortcuts for the old one and good to go.

Thank you very much. Was it the same thing happening to you?

No, it was different for me - I was just having issues with MMS messages not working. Still, maybe your problem is the app itself and in that case, can't hurt to try a different messaging app
