How do I ensure I properly get text alerts on my android phone?

I had given up on Facebook.  Someone managed to use its system against me be making multiple request to reset my password.  So I eventually decided to live without it.

But I begrudgingly found that Facebook can be a useful tool to make contact with people to discuss a variety of technologies.  So I decided to give it another try and I was able to give Facebook authentication in the form of a camera shot of my ID.  They sent me a link to reset my password.

Now, here is the issue I am having.  I am able to use my email to authenticate but I have a problem with Facebook when it comes to receiving text messages.  For some reason, I am completely unable to receive text messages from Facebook on my Android phone.

I am not sure if this is a Facebook issue or an Android phone issue.  I am able to get text phone notification from other platforms.  The only one I have a problem with is Facebook.

For some reason, I have three apps on my Android device.
  I have this one:

and it does not go anywhere when I click the button.
  I have this one:

which leads to this screen

and it does not go anywhere when I click the button.
But then there is this one:

which leads to this screen:

and then I am able to view my text messages.  I am thinking that I should remove the other two apps.  What do you think?  What are some steps I can take to fix my issue?
