I just fixed mine from someone else's answer on another site - go into your regular email / messages icon and then click on Options then go to Inbox Management and check off the Text Messages box.  It does not fix the problem but you will now be able to see all your messages including text in the messages icon list for now.  i was told by at&t store to go swap my phone for new one.
