Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus users are facing a weird issue

Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus users are experiencing some issues with their devices, which is that they’re not receiving complete text messages, from the sender; the users are only getting half text messages. The remaining part never reaches to them and its not with just a few users, but many users have raised this issues in many forums.

These complaints are all coming from the users having the Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 Soc variant of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus. Moreover, few have also blamed the different networks for this issues. Moreover, it’s not just happening on one carrier its plagued on Verizon, AT&T, and on Sprint as well.

While some T-Mobile users also complained about the same, but a temporary fixed was talked about, in which you disable the WiFi, calling feature of your phone and the issues get resolved for some time.

However, it’s not guaranteed to work for everyone. Still, you can give it a shot. Some users also tried to switch to some other third party messaging, and it too didn’t work, so if you were thinking the same, you should drop that idea.

However, neither Samsung nor any of the carriers have acknowledged the issues faced by Galaxy S8/S+ owners yet. Apart, from that this matters of receiving just half text messages are only observed in the US, while other parts of the world aren’t having such problems yet. We will update if any party acknowledges and provides a fix for this, and provide you with a detail explanation on how to fix this issues, on your Galaxy S8/S8+.
