Sorry. That link got screwed up and I can't edit my comment. Here it is: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.moez.QKSMS/

Interesting. Sorry this isn't working for you. I haven't heard of that messaging app before. We've had one other report of trouble with the Moto software but I don't know if it's that or the messaging app. I am marking it as a duplicate of the bug where I'm keeping track of the other non-working devices.

Feel free to try with a more "standard" SMS app, such as the built-in one or Google Messages. If you do, and if it does work for you, please report back.
