I cant receive text

I have taken my phone to verizon they sent me a new one and i still cant receive text unless they have a picture in them please help i can send text fine

Hi lwatkins! Do you use the default messaging client on the phone or a custom application? Do you get an error message when the message comes in? If so, what does it say? Does the sender get some kind of alert that the message they sent cannot be delivered?

    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.

  • I cant receive text messages from iPhone users to my android phone

    I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5 after owning an iPhone 4s. All my contacts transferred but now I can't receive text messages from iPhone users to my android device. I read that I have to make sure that my Apple id is totally deleted. How do I do that?

  • 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 messages

    I have the original iphone and up until yesterday I never had any problems with texting. Now all of a sudden, I can send text messages but I can't receive them. Any ideas? Your help is greatly appreciated

    Thank you for your response. Yes I reset it a few times. Last night i actually ended up calling AT&T and they said they think it may be a problem with my SIM card. They said they would ship me a new one free of charge. Although about 15 minutes ago i reset my phone again and received all of the texts I had missed at once. It seems like it only happens when receiving texts from Verizon users because i had my sister (also with AT&T) text me last night and i received it immediately. Could there be a problem between the two services?

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • Had an Iphone 4s and switched to a Samsung Galaxy s4 and now cant receive text messages from people with an iphone

    Had an Iphone 4s switched to samsung galaxy s4.  Now I cant get text messages from people with Iphones.  Need help.  Starting to get extremely mad and upset with apple products.  HELP PLEASE

    Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
    They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

  • 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.
