Cant receive text from iphone5

I seem to not be able to receive text messages from people with an iphone 5....How can i fix this???

Are you a former iphone user?  If yes then you will have to de-register yourself from all your Apple accts, Imessages, Itunes, and I'm sure there is other things. This is a common problem with people switching from iphone to android.  Someone here who has done this will come back with the exact steps necessary to do this.

    i cant receive text from ppl in my contact that have iphone very frustated

    Follow this article: iOS: Deactivating iMessage - Support - Apple
    If that doesn't work, contact Apple Support who can revoke the iMessage/Facetime certificate from association to your phone number.
    Also:
    1) Go to www.icloud.com and remove the device from Find My iPhone.
    2) Go to appleid.apple.com and change the primary email address of your Apple ID to something different (per Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID).
    3) Also at appleid.apple.com, change the password to your Apple ID (per Apple ID: Changing your password).
    4) Have any iPhone user attempting to send you a text message do the following:
    4a) Verify that in Settings > Messages that if iMessage is turned on to ensure that ‘Send as SMS’ is also turned on.
    4b) Delete the existing message thread, if any.
    4c) Delete your contact and readd, using only the phone number (no email).
    4d) Attempt to send a new text message to you.

    SMS is a carrier feature. Start by contacting your carrier and making sure your account is properly configured. Even if it was before, sometimes changing phones causes glitches.

  • Cant receive texts from o2 (im on orange)

    Hi
    I'm having exactly the same problem. However I'm on O2. I recently migrated my number from vodafone to O2 and since joining the network I've been unable to receive any texts from O2 customers. All other services are normal i.e can receive and make calls with anyone, and send texts to anyone as well. The only issue is receving texts from other O2 users. They are infact unable to send me the texts. An error message comes up their phone when attempting. Very frustrating! Anyone care to shed some light on the situation?

  • Have iphone5s-unless I am in wifi, I cant receive texts from other iphone users unless their imessage is turned off. Help

    If in wifi zone I have no problems as the imessage to immesage works.  However, when wifi off and cellular data on I cannot recieve texts from an iphone user unless their immessage is turned off.  These iphone uses recieve my messages but I do not recieve the replies.  Help?

    Under Settings>Messages>
    Make sure Send as SMS is on . If it is on and the error still occurs go to Send and Recieve, and make sure your phone number is the ONLY thing listed.

  • Changed from Iphone to Xperia Z1 and cant receive texts from iphone users

    i recently changed from Iphone to Z1 but can not receive text messages from a lot of iphone users ( i can from some which i strange). i have turned off the Imessage setting on the old Iphone and let it sit for 30mins for apple servers to identify this. i have also done a software repair via PC Companion but still doesnt work.
    any suggestions?

    The thing is that your friends still using iPhone must remove you from iMessage. Otherwise you might end up with this problem.

  • Cant receive text from android phones. Is there a fix for this?

    Is there a simple fix for this? Has this bug been addressed yet.

    You have to go to Settings > Messages and turn on receipt of MMS as well as SMS so you can receive both iMessages and regular text messages.

  • Iphone 5 broke switched to old iphone 4 but cant get texts from other iphone users cant do anything with iphone 5 like i said its wayy broke

    IPhone 5 broke switched to old iPhone 4 but cant receive texts from other iPhone users cant do anything with iPhone 5 screen does not work

    I'm guessing that you turned off the iPhone 5? If so, then are you using the same phone number as the 5? You need to go into Settings>Messages>make sure that iMessage is turned on and activated. Then go the Send & Receive and find out if your current number is checked.

  • Cant send or receive texts from one person....​why?

    I have a palm pixi and I cant send or receive texts from one person...why? when I send a message to this person the message just disappears. anything I can do to fix this?
    Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)

    This is a common problem.... I was having it too.  The only solution I found is to go into device info, reset options and then choose erase apps and data.  It solved the problem.  All the contact info is backed up so you don't lose your data.

  • 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
