Android phone not receiving texts from my iPhone

I have an iPhone and my friend cannot receive texts , but my wife can, both have an android phone

It is a problem with the other android phone. You may have to reset the android phone. If that doesnt work try looking on an android forum and see what their soltions are.

  • Not receiving texts from some iphone users.. anybody know whats up with that?

    Just got Samsung S4 and I'm not receiving texts from some iPhone users.
    Do i have something set up wrong?

    It appears you have moved from an iPhone to an android phone. The problem you are having is because you did not deactivate your iMessage service before leaving.
    If you still have your iPhone, you can re-activate it and then
    turn on iMessage in the settings
    uncheck your email and phone number
    turn off iMessage
    Settings>Messages
    If you don't have your phone or don't want to go thru the hassle of reactivating it, you can simply call Apple at 800-694-7466 and ask them to turn off your iMessage.

  • Phone not receiving texts from internet?

    Hello, I have a GC1, it's one of those unbreakable phones, and my daughter is in Scotland for the summer and she is trying to text me from the verizon website through the messaging tab but I cannot receive them. She can text my wife who has the same kind of phone but the flip kind with the keyboard. We both just got new phones so I thought something might be wrong there but hers works and mine does not. I would really like to be able to receive texts from my daughter while she's away. Can you help me? 

    Good point Ann!
    You can check online to see if you have a block for text from the web. Go to your My Verizon account, Go to Services at the top, Spam Controls, Internet Spam Blocking. At the bottom, make sure both options are unchecked, block all text messages sent from the web & block all text messages sent from email.

  • I'm not receiving texts from other iphone users

    I cannot receive texts from certain people in my contact list.  My imessaging is turned off and when I go to turn it on says "waiting on activation" so I attempt to sign in with my apple ID and password and it says please check your network connection. Its been doing this for days.  It doesnt matter where I am, how many bars I have or if I'm connected to Wifi. 
    I am PRAYING someone can help me here since even the store cant.
    If I dont get this figured out, I'll have no other choice but to uprade to Samsung.
    Also since updating to the dreaded ios7 I cannot use Snapchat, and myinstagram and facebook do not integrate together.

    If they are receiving that error message, it corrected and you are deregistered from iMessage

  • Can't send Text messages to Android phones or receive text from any websites

    I cant send text message to android phone or even to my gmail account from iphone 4s. I have disabled iMessage and rebooted the phone. I have also reset my apple password with no luck. This is a corporate phone.

  • I'm not receiving texts from other iphones.  Help?

    My text messaging is acting weird--I receive all of them except any from other iPhone users.  Needless to say, this is very inconvenient.  I don't know what happened, cause I've had the phone for a few months now, but hadn't had any issues until the last couple weeks.  As far as I can remember, I haven't changed any settings or anything.  Anyone have any ideas?

    That was a asinine and catty response.  I and many others have the same problem.  turning off imessage is not an effective solution.  I have turned off imessage, deactivated the phone with apple and wiped the phone clean.  the problem persists.

    Traded in my iPhone for a different brand of phone. I had no idea that I had to sign out of iMessage before doing this. Now, my old phone is gone and my new phone cannot receive texts from people who have iphones and had me as a contact before. They try to send an iMessage and I have no way to receive an iMessgae now. On some server somwhere my AppleID still tells people they should send me iMessages. What is the solution to this issue? Deleting my AppleID would work to solve this issue, but I cannot ever delete the ID? What can Apple do for this?

    If you did not erase your apps and data before getting rid of your old phone, try using Find My Phone and erasing everything remotely. See if this works.

  • Switched from iphone to galaxy - now not receiving texts from iphone users

    Switched from iphone to galaxy for multiple reasons.  Still keeping my iPad and wanted to use my iphone for music.  Now I am not receiving texts, apparently imessages, from iphone users -  there is no notification either way that a message was not received.  So iphone users think I have received a text when I haven't.  This makes me angry with Apple as there have been medical issues in our family and I have not been receiving important communication.  I also have clients I have not received texts from.  My understanding is I will have to delete my iphone from my apple account completely, but then will not be able to use it at all for itunes or anything else. 

    If you still have the iPhone, go to Settings and turn off iMessage. If you don't have the phone or if that doesn't solve the problem, contact Apple Support and request that they deactivate iMessage. https://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/

  • I just got a droid MAXX and I'm not receiving texts from iPhones.

    ok so i just switched from an iphone after having 2 for 4 years and i got a motorola droid maxx 2 days ago. i am not receiving texts from iphone users and i dont know why. i gave verizon my phone and so i cant turn off imessage but i cleared the phone before i gave it to them. i have also changed my apple i.d. and i have deactivated all my products such as my mac book pro and my two previous iphones. this is exactly why i switched because apple has to be a CULT and make everything so complicated. please help me solve apples stupidity.

    That was a asinine and catty response.  I and many others have the same problem.  turning off imessage is not an effective solution.  I have turned off imessage, deactivated the phone with apple and wiped the phone clean.  the problem persists.

  • Recently started not receiving texts from one person - AT&T user, also HTC One

    I recently started not receiving texts from one person. He also has an HTC One (older model) but has AT&T as his provider. We were texting back and forth last Friday morning (11/8) and then he called me and ever since then I have not received a single text he has sent. He is receiving all of mine and we can receive phone calls back and forth, but his text messages are not coming through. We have both tried restarting our phones and I have also tried deleting him as a contact and recreating it however nothing works. I checked to make sure he was not blocked (which I knew wasn't the case since I could receive phone calls from him as well), and even tried turning the "block contact" on and back off. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Right now we are using work arounds with google-talk and facebook messenger but it's very frustrated for me to not receive any of the texts that his phone is saying I am receiving.
    It had started sporadically over the past few weeks where I would miss a text from him every once in awhile, but now I am receiving nothing. He is the only one that I am having this issue with as I have texted back and forth with multiple others the past few days with no issues.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Hi!  I'm also having the same problem.  I have an iphone 5 & one person (who also has an iphone 5 but has AT&T as a provider).  We had been able to send & receive phone calls & texts until mid-November.  Now, we can both give & receive phone calls from each other and she receives my texts, however, I DON"T receive hers. In fact, if I'm in a group text message with her,  I don't receive any of the texts  that include her, even though I can give/receive texts individually from the others in the group message. The other two in the group message CAN receive both her texts & mine. This is so strange - I was left out of a whole thread of text messages & none of us knew it.  They thought they were including me (nothing bounced back) & I didn't know I wasn't receiving them. Since her texting works with both of the others, I'm concluding the problem must be with my phone.  Do I have an incorrect setting?  I'm not sure what could have happened.  PLEASE help! 

  • Anyone else having trouble receiving texts from other iphone users?

    My daughter has an iphone 4S and just called from college, she can't receive texts from other iphone users anymore.  Worked fine until yesterday.  She can receive texts from me, but I have a droid.  Any idea if this is a Verizon problem or something wrong with her phone?

    She turned imessage off, then turned it back on again and now it seems to be fine.  Not sure what she did, but she says she's ok now.

  • Not receiving texts from US Cellular friends only

    I am not receiving texts from US Cellular subscribers only. I have been told by my nice customer service people at Verizon that it is probably a US Cellular issue. This just isn't sitting well with me. I do seem to be receiving texts from other carriers (Boost, Verizon, AT&T). My iphone 4S is updated as far as I can tell. I've only had a couple of weeks and I have yet to receive any of the messages US cellular people have sent (so it's not like they are delayed, etc. I just do not receive them). I am very frustrated and do not want a different phone. The reason I changed to Verizon FROM US Cellular was for the iphone 4S. Feeling very disappointed and frustrated. Love all the other features of this phone, but as a phone (which is the purpose of the thing) it has been sub standard. Anyone else having problems receiving text messages?
    I have tried : turning imessage off. rebooting phone. updating network etc (options 1 & 2). I can send messages to these same people and they receive them. They can call me, but when they send me texts they never reach me.
    HELP
