I can't send messages or call people with my NEW iPhone 4s.

Hello.
I live in Sweden and I ordered my iPhone 4s some days ago, I got it on Wednesday.
Ever since I got it I noticed that I was having problems with my carrier, "Tele2". I can't send messages or even make calls, and I'm very disappointed. And I also can't connect to the 3G network at times, it just goes away, and this always leads to a reboot.
I have to restart my phone every 5 minutes, and THEN I can send about 1-2 messages, then it goes back to what it was before. Crap.
And I also called the people on "Tele2" they said that they don't know if it's the software or if it's the hardware. And that I simply have to wait until they know.
I'm just wondering. Is there anyone out there who's heard anything about solving any problems like these? Perhaps and update to 5.0.1 ? Please let me know, I would appreciate it very much!

They said that it wasn't them, they contacted Apple and they were aware of the problem. But still Apple didn't know if it was hardware of software problems.

  • Incredible can't send messages to specific people

    I can't send texts to specific people.  I can receive texts from those people and everyone else perfectly fine.
    The people who can't receive my texts are on Verizon as well.  They do receive the texts eventually some eight-twelve hours after I send them.
    I read through other threads about not being able to receive messages; I tried some of the suggestions there, but they do not resolve the problem. 

    Have you checked the contacts numbers to make sure they dont have the +1 in front of the numbers because for some reason it seems that when users import contacts info from social site apps this happen and the problem happens...  The Thunderbolt has a option to change this but it seems that the Incredible dont...  At least not from the users that I suggested this to before..
    Check your contacts numbers and see if the +1 is present.
    Also try changing Settings / Call / Assisted Dialing and uncheck Enable Assistaced Daling at top.. 

  • I can't send Messages to certain people, but I can reply to their Messages

    Hello,
    I have an unlocked AT&T iPhone 4, currently using it with Telenor in Sweden. Everything works fine except for the Messages application.
    When I try to send a message to my Swedish contacts, sometimes they receive it and other times they don't.
    But where it gets weird is that if they send me a message, it will open a new "conversation" and I can reply in that new "conversation".
    Also, sometimes, if they have iPhones with iMessage, when I send them a text, the bubble will stay green and it says it is being sent as a text message. But when they contact me, the bubbles are blue and it says it's an iMessage.
    This also only happens with certain people, regardless of which kind of phone they have! It also never happens with my American contacts who have iMessage.
    Anyone else experience something similar? I have no clue why this could be.
    Thanks!

    Hi Jake,
    Can you flesh this out a bit ?
    Mac to Mac / MAc to PC ?
    Applications used ?
    Method used ? In Text chats ? Dropping on Buddies name ?
    Just after adding Buddy or after restart ?

  • Can't send messages to my Android phone from an iPhone

    I used to own an iPhone and have just switched to Android. Now no other iPhone users can send me a text message without first disabling imessage on their own phones first.  I have tried deleting iCloud account on my old iPhone, resetting to factory settings, disabling Find My iPhone, erasing my phone number from iCloud, all to no avail.  Unfortunately, on the apple.com website there appears to be no option to permanently delete your account.  This is very frustrating, I just want to be rid of the account permanently and use my new phone without interference.  Please help, thanks in advance!

    Hey Rhurac,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your phone number is still activated with iMessage. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Deactivating iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5185
    Resolution
    If you are experiencing one of the symptoms above, the cellular phone number may still be registered with iMessage.
    iMessage is registered with your cellular telephone number when you turn it on with your iPhone. If you want to deregister your phone number:
    - Tap Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off
    If you still cannot deactivate iMessage after you perform the steps above, or if you no longer have access to the iPhone, please contact Apple support for assistance.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Why i can't make a normal video call over my cellular operator using by iphone 4s ????!!!! is it possible that if my mobile is iphone so i can not contact (Video Call - or Send Files over Bluetooth ) people do not have iphone ??????!!!!!!!!!

    why i can't make a normal video call over my cellular operator using by iphone 4s ????!!!!
    is it possible that if my mobile is iphone so i can not contact (Video Call - or Send Files over Bluetooth ) people do not have iphone ??????!!!!!!!!!
    i'm still looking for solution, but if i there is no solution so i will throw My Own iPhone 4S in the nearest Trash.
    (I had got a big problem and thanks for Nokia saved me. and if i don't care about apple products i will never send to you this, so kindly find solution or people in middle east will stop using iphone)

    No clue why you cannot make video calls over your cellular operator... have you tried contacting them?
    If you're referring to FaceTime, it is currently limited to Wi-Fi only.
    Sending files via Bluetooth is not a supported feature of the iPhone or iOS.  A simple search of the web or these forums would have made that abundantly clear.
    Threatening to throw away valuable items in these forums only serves to make you look less than intelligent.  No one here is an Apple employee, we are all users like yourself.  As such, we could care less what you do.  If you choose to be stupid, that's up to you.
    Educate yourself and stop whining.

  • I have full signal and have wifi but I'm can't send messages or receive them. I can't make phone calls either.

    HI
    I have full signal and have wifi but I'm can't send messages or receive them. I can't make phone calls either. it picks and chooses when I can receive them and make calls. It only works everytime I turn my phone off.

    Try turning on Airplane mode for a little bit (20-30 seconds) and turn it back off. see if that doesn't allow you to re-connect.
    In my current project my office receives no signal at all. I have to do this almost every time I leave the office in order to get a signal.

  • Why can't I send multiple texts any more? I am on iphone 5 and it is only allowing me to send messages to 10 people at once! Previously on iphones 3 and 4s I could send to many more.

    Why can't I send multiple texts any more? I am on iphone 5 and it is only allowing me to send messages to 10 people at once! Previously on iphones 3 and 4s I could send to many more. I use my phone for work and want to send to multiple staff groups or project leaders the same information at the same time and not all of them have email capable phones so text has always been the best solution.
    Please help ?

    22ms is a long time for your computer, but I am wondering about your network. Are you 10 base or 100 base? Switch or hub? Have you tried a direct connection with a crossover cable? Just trying to spark ideas here. I use TCP all the time but only at 500 ms intervals.

    SMS and calls are carrier features.  Check with your carrier

  • I can only send messages to other iPhones and I am not allowed to make or receive calls

    I can only send messages to other iPhones and I am not allowed to make or receive calls at all not even iphones.

    You must have a SIM card installed ( if applicable ) and have your iPhone activated to make calls or text mobile phones.

  • HT3529 On ipad3, wifi only, how can I send messages to non iOS users?

    On ipad3, wifi only, how can I send messages to non iOS users?
    I have MacBook, and iPhone 4 as well

    Your're wrong on the overly sensitive part. I couldn't care less about android or some other stuff that you are comparing, what i do care about... enough to take the time to explain, is that your view on things colors the choices you make.
    You clearly state your decision making process and the marketing is doing their work on you.
    You think in terms of comparisons and competitors and that will always get you. The truth is, I'm glad Apple finally focused on how "something makes you feel" with iOS 7. There is so much truth in that one sentence!
    There is so much noise out there about screen size, n core processors and price comparisons you can never get a good feel of what the product really is. By the time you figure out you were taken on a marketing hike, a new model comes out and the story starts all over again. (think of the nokia 40 megapixel camera, or the quad core samsung, those are exagerations to impress the consumer) Imagine the size of the jpg's on that phone, all those megapixels with the quality of a phone camera, ridiculous. Soon we will have 12-core phones with 7 inch screens, and people being led into thinking you can do everything on it, "one thing to rule them all", buy now! I saw a woman on the metro the other day with a 6' phone, I swear the thing was almost half the size of her head.
    It's almost 2014 and you are complaining you can't send sms(which is a 25 year old technology by the way) with this new device. All your friends are using outdated tech and because you want to talk to them you want outdated tech too. Sms is insecure, easily snooped upon and recorded, the carrier charges for it and charges more for international sms, and so on... and on... internet chat has been free since the 1990s and it's about time it got free on our phones too.
    Just forget about it. Enjoy other people taking the decisions, you can't take yourself, for you. Trust them, see if it fits, care about life, act emotionally when you "feel" like it. You deserve that, you are human, take the feeling home with you, share it with others.
    Who cares if it's the 2014 edition or quad core... I gave my old iPad 3 to my grandmother so I could call her on Facetime. I bought the iPad Air on a whim, I just "felt" I wanted it. After a couple of weeks she thought about asking me if she could call my brother in the UK too, and how much it would cost. I said it was free, and she looked at me in disbelief. She is now calling my brother weekly by herself... she is 78. Can you imagine that... all I did is give her my "old" iPad.
    Buying the iPad Air was the single best decision of my life, not because of the size or the weight or even iOS 7 (i do enjoy them by the way) but because it made me give my old iPad to my grandmother.
    She doesn't even understand how it works, I figured it would be too much useless stuff to mention... it just does! Here put your finger here and here, then tap the name... wait for him to answer. Unbelievable!!!
    PS. I figured the best gift I can make is give my old Apple devices to people who would never in a million years buy one for themselves. You see them in shops, they are our mothers and friends... they look at the huge prices and they would never give that much to themselves, they feel they don't deserve it. They gave me money to buy all the useless cr@p I ever wanted in my youth, the least I could do is gift them my "old tech" to enrich their lives. Going to buy a 5S soon and give my 4S to someone for free, but it's going to be someone I care deeply about, deeply enough to change their lives.

  • Can't send message on AT&T - won't connect to server. Anyone else having this issue?

    All of a sudden I can't send messages on my AT&T account. I get a message that Thunderbird cannot connect to server (STMP). Called AT&T and they verified all the settings; I can access my email account on Apple Mail and through Yahoo (AT&T's email provider) yet I cannot send messages on Thunderbird. I can receive but not send.
    I did try deleting the account and re-establishing it however that did not help. Anybody else have this issue?

  • Can I send message in byte format

    hello
    Why no one is answering me
    but still I want to know that Can I send message in byte format to inbox
    message.setContent(byte [] b, "text/plain");
    And Can I receive mail in byte format from inbox.
    String dis = new String((String)messagePart.getContent());
    plz resolve my problem

    Obviously you have a very skewed view of the world
    based on what you want to do. The most common thing
    people want to do with email is not send raw binary data.
    The most common thing people want to do is send text to be
    read by a human.
    Nonetheless, it's very easy to send binary data. Again, the
    most common case is sending text. The thing that's important
    with text is that it appear as the same text at the other end.
    That's easy. But if you have text where every CR, LF, and
    space has to appear absolutely unchanged at the other end,
    that requires a bit of extra work.
    The demo program sendfile.java that comes with JavaMail
    shows how to send a file as an attachment. That's the core
    of the program. Here's the 6 lines of code you need to add
    to that program to do what you want:
    ------- sendfile.java -------
    100c100,104
    < FileDataSource fds = new FileDataSource(filename);
    FileDataSource fds = new FileDataSource(filename) {
    public String getContentType() {
    return "application/octet-stream";
    };113a118,119
    msg.saveChanges();
    mbp2.setHeader("Content-Transfer-Encoding", "base64");Is that so hard?
    If you don't want to send the file as an attachment, but rather as the one
    and only body of the message, it's even easier. Let me know if I need
    to write that program for you as well.
    And if you already have the data in memory in a byte array, that's even
    easier still.
