I can not send text messages
this is a new problem on my g4. all of a sudden I can not send text messages when i am in my home. this happens on my s4 and my sons s4 but my daughter uses an iphone and she is not having this problem. i can receive texts, facebook, email etc I just can not send texts. Nothing in my house has changed except that Comcast just put in a new modem, I am not tech savvy at all so not even sure that would affect my out going texts
any suggestions would be great
Hi scrappy1989,
Let's see what's causing the problem! Are you using a 3rd party messaging application? Are you having trouble sending picture and text message? Do you experience the issue with everyone you send a message to? Do you receive an error message? I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks for your contribution to our community forums,

TS3274 I can't send text message to some people in my contacts
I can not send text messages from iPad air to some of my contacts. I can send from iPhone
1. Messages on the iPad can only be sent to other iDevices and Mac Computers running Mountain Lion.
2. They must also be registered with iMessage
Note: The two above conditions must be met. -

My MOTO X was working fine, then all of a sudden, I can not receive text messages. I have checked the settings and they look correct to me, and I have done everything the web site recommends, except wiping the phone and starting over, to try and fix it. Has anyone else had this issue, and how did you resolve it?
Thanks so much.That's strange that your Moto X wont receive any text. Thank you for trouble shooting the issue. Let's see what's going on! Does your device have any physical or liquid damage? Does anyone else have an issue with calling or texting? What zip code are you in?

I CAN NOT RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE USING IMESSAGE
On an iPhone your iMessages will go to your phone number.
You can select another email to use on iPod or iPad.
Go to settings
Messages
Send and receive
Check your phone number and uncheck the common Apple ID you share so your messages will not go to other devices. -

Iphone 5 receives text messages but will not send text messages
Since yesterday my boyfriends iphone 5 will not send text messages. He can receive them but when he goes to reply it doesnt work. He has turned his phone off and on and that seems to work for awhile but then the same problem happens again where he cannot send a text message. Was wondering if there was any way in fixing this or why his phone is all of a sudden doing this.
So I should update this. The phone actually loses service, I have reset the network connection as well as I have updated the carrier settings and the phone is still losing service randomly. I called the carrier and they told me there is nothhing they can do unless we bring the phone in, they believe it could be the sim card because everything on their end looks to be fine. So I'll be going to the carrier store this evening to see if they can fix the problem if not then I will be going to the apple store. Do hope this problem gets fixed soon.

Nokia X3-02 can't send text message to only one of...
i can't send text message to only one of my contacts... what happen? what should i do? help me pls... tnx...
Hi,
You can send the other contacts SMS but not only one contact, Right?
Then the issue is with your contact, maybe the number is not right or not the right format.
So check your contact number with number which you can send SMS.
Maybe it is best to delete that contact and create new contact which the format is the same with the others.
I hoe this helps.

Droid maxx hd will not send text messages
Is anyone else having this problem? Phone started not sending text messages. I have deleted Apps, pics, texts, etc and it starts to work for a bit then does the same thing.
Have you tried clearing system cache on your phone, I'd clear cache's for your Text messages then clear the system cache, make sure to power cycle your phone this can help as well..

Can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back
can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back...help taking up a lot of space.
Try this...
Close out all apps (double click the home button and swipe up) then delete one thread. Do a hard reset of the phone or ipad, then wait a few minutes and it should be gone. I just did this with a thread that had thousands of txt and it worked for me. The older phones just don't have much processing power. -

Does anyone have a clear solution as to why my new iPhone 5 will not send text messages to some numbers?
I had problems the first few days with text messaging on my new cell. I checked my new contract service thru AT&T online, and it turned out the guy who set up my phone didn't sign me up for the unlimited texting I told him I HAD to have! I just had to add texting back into my contract.....problem solved. I hope your problem is solved this easily.
