I cant receive sms

I cant receive sms. When this first happened, I tried to reset my phone and it worked. But after a few days, I cant receive sms again. I tried to transfer my sim card to a different device and I was able to receive sms there.

  • Cant receive sms, need to change settings

    Hi,
    I have received a Firefox Os phone from geeksphone. Seems pretty good, but it freaked me out today. I realized that I am unable to receive sms. I cant even receive from myself, or gmail(2-step authentication). I have never experienced such problems with othe devices from this office.
    I need to check the sms settings on the phone but cant find them. Can you help me please or provide any hints?
    Thanks.

    Hello, [[Control cellular and data connections and settings on Firefox OS]] should help you with this :)

  • I cant receive sms messaging

    i have a blackberry storm 2 and i can send sms messages but i cant receive them. this phone is new to me and i've been through almost everything that i could think of but still cant figure out why i am not receiving any messages. please help!!!

        Good morning JChinery,
    Text messaging is my favorite form of wireless communication! It’s SUPER convenient to send a text to convey a message when I am not able to speak. I’m sure that you understand the convenience that text messaging provides in today’s wireless world. May I ask how much memory do you have on the Storm 2? In most cases, the text functionality may become limited due to lack of memory. I would suggest erasing all of your old text message threads and other media, reboot the device, and retest. Of course this step is in addition to what SuzyQ recommended, thanks SuzyQ!
    Since we are on the subject, I would suggest erasing any unused media. Some examples are old pictures, the sample video, and any unused apps. Once you have tested the text messaging service, please advise if the issue is resolved as I am eager to know the outcome.
    Thank you…

  • Cant receive sms using a midlet

    I ve developed an application to read an sms on port 50000 .There are no errors in it also it just keeps on listening..
    But the sms directly goes to inbox ..I am unable to read the sms..can anyone help me ..

    How did you send the SMS? Are you sure is was sent with the correct port number?
    Also, this is to some extent operator dependent. Some mobile services strip port numbers from SMS received from other services.

  • Cant Receive SMS Txts

    Ok heres the deal, i can receive txts from att friends, but when i try to txt my new phone with my old phone which is still active it doesnt go through at all. I can receive pic message but not a reg message at all. Ive tried everyhting i could, took battery out with phone on, and off. looked through all the options to see if i missed something and i come up empty handed. If anyone has advice or should i just call support on this that would be great to hear from someone. My txts do go through to the other people, but when they send me a txt back it doesnt come through at all.

    try to check your sms center number..  you may call your network provider for the sms center number...
    you could also perform soft reset *#7780* to restore your original settings.

  • I don't have a 3G so i use Sms/Mms messaging when i have wifi. My co'iphone users receive my text messages but i cant receive theirs because it sends as an imessage. HELP thanks

    I Don't have a 3G on my iphone 4. So when i dont have a wifi, i send text through SMS/MMS messaging. I can receive and send SMS/MMS messages to non iphone users. I can also send the same messages to my co iphone users but i cant receive theirs because it sends as imessage. someone help me pls. Thnks

    The only way to get around that, since you do not have a data plan, is to completely disable iMessage. While you can turn on the switch for Send As SMS on, which could send your messages as SMS when not connected to Wi-Fi and data is not turned on, it could also find your messages lost in the server and never delivered. Also, anyone sending to you would have to be set up the same way. You can check out this support document for deactivating iMessage. iOS: Deactivating iMessage
    iMessage requires an active data connection for both the sender and receiver to work properly.

  • I cant receive text from ppl that have iphone sine i got andriod

    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.

    I just got an iphone 6 plus and I cant receive texts from android or nokia users??
    I previously had a iphone 4s and iphone 5. Set up my phone as a brand new phone and I cant receive any texts from any of my friends that have android or nokia users and cant receive pictures from them also. Its very frustrating...does anyone have any fixes of solutions to this???

    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 or send picture messages

    Hi can someone please help me, I have recently bought the Nokia C3 and I cant receive or send picture messages, can someone please advise.  Thanks

    You need to contact ur operator and ask them to send u MMS & wap and internet settings (Or only MMS), u'll most probably get them via configuration sms, open it, go to options and select "save" phone will ask if to set it as default, select yes. that's it. Try to send Picture message.

  • Cant receive pics from samsung d500 on my 6230i

    Hey,
    I cant receive pictures from my mates who have the samsung d500, either by bluetooth or sms/mms. They just come up as 'format not supported'
    I emailed Nokia a while back and they said the phones dont have compatible picture formats (even though they are both jpg/jpeg).
    Just wondering if there are any firmare upgrades which would do the trick??
    thanks

    Get the latest firmware as its address's some of the D500 compatability issues, no guarantee but it works for most people!

  • TS2755 I cant receive longer text messages.  Is there a setting I need to change?

    I cant receive longer text messages.  Is there a setting I need to change?

    That is controlled by your carrier. The standard SMS is a max of 160 characters. There is no setting on the phone for SMS messages >160 characters.  Not all carriers will support longer messages, and some will split them into multiple messages.  Contact your carrier.

  • Not able to send or receive SMS messages on iMessage on mac

    When I first updated to Yosemite the new SMS feature on iMessage was working. I had to replace my home button and screen on my iPhone 5s and after that it stopped working. I am not sure if having that repair done on my phone has anything to do with my above problem. Please help

    Hi Ralph,
    Thank you for your reply.
    Ok, I will try to explain myself better.
    When I say:
    - Messages, I am talking about the software to send and receive iMessages and SMS.
    - iMessage, is the blue bubble
    - SMS is the green bubble
    Facetime is because if someones callsme and I do not answer quickly on iPhone, and the Macs are using the same network as iPhone, the VoiceCall pops ups and rings, and usually I activate the Facetime option (when is a iPhone). Sorry about this confusion.
    So basically, a week ago, I could send and receive SMS, iMessage on my Macs to/from anyone.
    Now, I just can send iMessages (blue bubbles with blue name/contact on top [TO:]) and I can't send SMS (text messages, green bubble), I receive error (red exclamation point) and the name/contacts on top [To:] are red.
    And as I told, I think it might be because of the new iOS update with iTunes recovery. Because it is the only similar thing I can relate with "loyalchiver" (when an iPhone goes to repair, the restore it.) That's why I tried signout/in in all Macs, but still not working.
    About the Text Forwarding function, I had searched and what I was getting was to go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding, but this last option didn't appear, so I thought this was because the pages/foruns that I was reading was for the version 8.1 and not 8.1.1 (Apple could change it, I don't know). But while I was trying to put this working, I had rebooted some where and when I saw your reply, I went again there, and I had the Text Message Forwarding option, so all I had to do was activating it. Thank you!
    To "labelchiver", I am not sure how I did it, but try this:
    1. close all applications running on background.
    2. reboot your iphone.
    3. go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding .
    4. If you can enter there and your mac is linked, unlink it and link it again.
    5. Hope it works for you
    Once again, thank you for your help and I apologize for my  confusions about the labels. Cheers!
