I've had all sorts of issues with the push messaging causing some crazy infuriating problems... had to disable it on my end and on friends phones too.
Also had some oddness where two friends with identical handsets - one couldn't set TextSecure as the incoming SMS client even though the other could...
It's great, I rave about it and try and talk everyone I know into using it, but there are some odd issues occasionally...
My uneducated opinion is that this has to do with all the junk layered on top of Android by the phone manufacturer. I've got a Nexus 4 (old flagship, vanilla Android) and TextSecure has not given me an iota of trouble.
I tend to agree. My vanilla nexus devices haven't had any problems at all (except for the push bits)... In fact, virgin android in general is extremely swish and pleasant to use.
