Droid Razr M not sending full text messages after updating

I had an update to my Droid Razr M four days ago. Since that update, if I send a message that is longer than the allotted characters, the message is not fully sent. The person receiving the text only receives the first part of the message. They have then received the 2nd part of the message the next day, which was combined with a new text that was sent or they do not receive it at all. My phone restarted automatically after the update, and I manually restarted it two more times. I have had this phone for 5 months and this is the first automatic update. Prior to the update, I did not have any issues when messages were longer than the allotted characters. They were received simultaneously. After the update, it's hit or miss receiving the all texts if longer than one. Is anyone else having these similar issues? Any suggestions on how to correct, besides sending smaller messages??

Dkronx, thanks for bringing your issue to our attention. I want to make sure that your text messages are working as they should. I'm not showing this as a reported issue. Do you show any errors when this happens, or just find out that the other person didn't receive it? Are you using any SMS apps from the PlayStore? Try clearing cache from your Messaging app. This will not erase data. http://vz.to/ZauvQJ Also, remove the SD card for about 30 seconds.

Unable to send or receive text messages after updating iOS to 7.0.2

I am unable to send or receive text messages aftering updating to iOS 7.02. I have an iPhone 4S. I have run all the suggested troubleshooting still can't text. I have been to my carrier, AT&T, there is no issue with my account. AT&T suggested resetting the phone to factory defaults (thereby wiping it clean). I am trying to avoid that as I had issues with transferring data & contacts before. Any one have a work around?

Try this iMessage workaround
Look for a fix by Apple by the end of the week.....

Experiencing issues sending/receiving MMS messages after updating to iOS 6

I, like so many others, have been experiencing problems sending/receiving MMS messages after updating to iOS 6. Other than that, I really do like the new update. I have an iPhone 4S with Verizon. I have been to Verizon, and the issue is not with my plan; it is definitely with the update. My friend updated her phone also, but her phone is just the iPhone 4. She does not experience these issues. Is Apple aware and trying to fix the problem? It is soooo frustrating! I cannot send/receive picture messages, nor can I send/receive group messages. --- Has anyone come up with a solution to fix it yet, or is it something that Apple will have to do?
Thanks in advance.

I also am having the same problem. I can't send a pic to anyone who doesn't have iMessage. Also, I don't always get the alert when I have a new message. I never had this problem before I updated to IOS 6. I have AT&T & an iphone4. It's isn't jail broken. I've been reading forums for a couple weeks now and apparently it has something to do with the apn. And I don't know how or even if I can change it. Then I also read it might have something to do with a damaged SIM card. And it might have been damaged when we updated. But those are just theories.

TS2755 Siri will not send a text message to some of my contacts

I am using an iPhone 5 . When Siri is asked to send a Text Message to some members of my contact list it will...but some it will not. Mostly the one that cannot find are members of my family. This has only been happening the last couple of days. How can this be fixed?

Hello mmurray550,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
According to a previous Support Communities thread marked as solved, green phone numbers are numbers not registered with iMessage, and would thus be SMS only. Since you're using an iPod touch, it does not have SMS capability, and therefore cannot send a message to that number.

Help! New iphone 3g not sending/recieving text messages or email!!!

Hey guys. I just got myself a 3g iphone today and im already havin issues with it. I updated to 3.1.2 right off the bat.
Well it seems that i can send email, but that seems to be about it. I can not send or recieve text messages. I can recieve email, but it will not notify me when I get a new email. The only way i can find out if i have a new email is by opening the mailbox and waiting for it to refresh.
Isnt this thing suposed to push my emails and notify me as soon as they are sent? How do i get this and my text messaging working? This is so disapointing since my wife just got a $10 phone that worked flawlesly right out of the box.
thanks all,
---Joe

First off, Reset your iPhone. Hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the off slider, wait for the Apple logo to appear then let the buttons go. After it resets try to send a text message again. If it does not work there is probably an issue with your carrier and you will have to contact them.
As far as mail, do you have a MobileMe, Yahoo push, GMail push, or Exchange mail account? Because these are the only ones that will Push your mail to the iPhone. If you do have one of these make sure Push is turned on in the Mail settings. If you don't have one of these you can go to the Mail settings and specifying a mail Fetch period.

Can't receive normal text messages after updating to iOS5, only iMessages

Over the summer I bought iOS5 from a developer and had it on my phone for about a month until it crashed and I had to restore from a backup. So I put iOS5 back on my phone, and it crashed it again. I decided to wait until yesterday to put it back on, because it was legit and through Apple. Now I can't receive normal text messages from non-iPhone users. I'm only receiving iMessages. The only way to fix it is to turn off iMessage, but that's one of the main features of the update. Help?

i may put my iphone in the toaster tonight i am so $%#@!*^ frustrated.
i have an iphone 4 which i upgraded to ios5 about 4 days ago. yesterday, i realized i wasn't able to receive any text messages, but was (and am still getting imessages), along with the ever-so-vague 'sms mailbox is full, delete some text messages' alert.
so i came to the internet to find out about the supposed 15mb (75k*) limit. Apple's solution on their own site was 'hey, crazy hoarder, why don't you delete some texts?? there you go, EASY PEAZY!' except that didn't work...for me, and a ton of other people apparently.
i came down from 76something to around 67k.
I hard restarted, i ignored it, i deleted more texts, i bought phoneview, i deleted MORE texts, more restarts, NOTHING. it has now been 48 hours with no texts. NEED I ASSURE YOU THAT I AM A VERY IMPORTANT PERSON (as we all are).
so i backed up my phone (again, as i did before the upgrade), and restored it to factory nothingness. restart. restart. stare blankly. no texts.
then, i go to restore from backup (via itunes) so i can at least get all my contacts and whatnot back. lo and behold, my backup is gone. only the option to set up my 'new' iphone. i delay utter panic for a brief second and silently pray to the angel steve, sitting upon his giant white icloud, remembering that i actually paid for extra icloud space and backed up to that as well.
now i'm just waiting for it to restore AT LEAST my contacts, which it now seems to have done by the time i've typed this. PARTIAL crisis averted.
alas, i STILL am not getting any text messages. it seems that calling apple does nothing since apparently no one was told about this and/or how to fix this. i cannot receive text messages from my boyfriend, my parents, my colleagues who all are iphoneless and better off than me at this point.
i am leaving for a business trip in 12 hours. i'd like to figure this out before i put this thing in the garbage disposal or violently smash and use it's parts as confetti. although by the time i do, i will probably have lost all my friends and been disowned by my family for ignoring their jokes / emoticons / cries for help.
i fear apple has become a sentient being, and this is it's way of forcing all people of earth to use iphones...for there will be no other way to communicate with each other once we evolve and are all born with giant thumbs instead of vocal chords...hold me im scared...
it's so dark here...

Can not send SMS text message.

Hi, I'm a BlackBerry user for 4 years now and this is the first time that I have a problem with SMS text messaging. My precious BB is a Q10.
The problem is that I can receive SMS messages but I can not answer and I can not send messages. When I tap the 'send' icon or press Enter nothing happens. My message dissapears and i can not see in the upper window, below the message that I've previously receive and I wanted to aswer for.
Also, I can compose SMS message, but when I press Enter or tap send, nothing happens. No message in the hub, or in the text messages folder.
I've rebooted the device, reloaded the OS, but didn't help.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (step 1 should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive
2) Reboot
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

Cant receive text messages after update

Updated my phone last night and now I can't receive text messages. I can send them but not receiving them. I share my account with my wife and I was receiving her text messages. When I go to iMessage, I can't select my own number. It is grey and not checked, but won't let me check it. I sign out of my account, and sign back in, and it shows the number checked when I sign in, but is not checked in the iMessage settings.

you might want to consider backing up your texts with Gmail so you can access them anywhere, instead of storing them on your phone.

Is there any way to recover old text messages after update

When i updated my new iPhone OS to the new system, i had to end up doing a restore. This wiped out all my info and while i have a backup on the computer. I can seem to find a way to recover old text messages via the iMessage platform. Is there any way to recover some of those old conversations? Some have sentimental value to them.

I just need the last month of texts and I had not backed up for several months.

I dont think there is a fix available.

Droid Razr M stuck on red motorola logo after update?

Anyone else having that problem? Everything seemed to download fine and then has been stuck on the red logo for an hour now. I have tried rebooting pressing power and volume button and logo just goes away and comes right back.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I understand your concerns about your data JTGoebel! Did you have you phone synced to http://vz.to/14QbP0I the Verizon Cloud? If you did, you can do a hard reset with confidence as all your data has been save to the cloud. Follow the steps to the alternate reset method at this link http://vz.to/159Lipc and make sure to UNCHECK Automatic Restore at step 3.
