And trying to use Google message it's the same thing and when I check my setting it says it's trying to verify my phone number and I'm going on a week and a half so I can't use that either

Have you changed your phone number since you set up your Google acct ? If not, did you set up 2 factor auth and list a 2ndary phone # and/or email?

[MightyMike7th]

Yes.... I don't know why they update has caused so much issues for me now

[kimberleigh]

Idkw either. I read an article about how the new update is causing issues with earlier androids but there's also suppose to be an update released to fix it. Just dunno when

I had a contact Verizon and they were able to figure out the issues and get me up and running again....
