You said "Imessaging" where I believe you're talking about the iOS Messages app. It sounds as though you are able to send SMS or MMS "Text Message"'s (non-iMessages) from the Messages app but incoming SMS or MMS Text Message replies are only showing up in your Verizon Message+ app. I don't know but here some things you could try to get them to show up in the Messages app:
- Open the iOS Settings app and then the Verizon Message+ settings within. See if there is any kind of setting that makes Message+ the default or primary messaging app either in general or specifically for SMS/MMS. If so disable that.
- You could also check the Messages settings and make sure both MMS Messaging as well as Group Messaging are enabled under SMS/MMS. (As I'm not sure which types of non-iMessage messages are at issue.)
- If still no avail, go back over to Message+ settings via iOS Settings and, if you're signed into Integrated Messaging, you might have to sign out of that feature on the iPhone to solve your stated problem.
Beyond that, for whatever that's worth, I got nothin'.
