I'm having a problem sending text messages to 5 digit numbers.

i had a pop up on my phone asking if i wanted to send a msg to a number and i didn't realize it was a msg i had sent that apparently had taken longer to send. so i selected no to the box and now i can't send any 5 digit numbers texts.     how can i turn it back on!?

Open the text app, then open setting, then press the menu button on bottom left of phone. A box will open asking if you want to restore the default settings.

    Do you have MMS turn on in Settings?
    Are you provisioned by your carrier to use MMS?
    Lastly, give your phone carrier a call, as MMS is a carrier feature.

  • Anyone have a problem sending text messages being delivered after few minutes up to five minutes?

    Has anyone have a problem sending text messages and the messages won't get delivered after few minutes? From time to time I would have this problem and it's annoying.  I would expect someone to receive it by then and response to my text right away.  But when I look up the text it hasn't been delivered and it's in the process.  I would hear that the message get delivered after few minutes? What gives? I never had a problem with my iphone 4 i think? Now with iOS 5 it let's me know whether it is delivered or not.  This new feature is awesome but disappointing when I know my text hasn't been delivered right away.  I'm not sure if it's the software or my iphone 4s or my carrier? anyone suggestions?  Thanks!!

    I have the same problem when sending iMessages.. Wasnt sure if it was apple or Sprint? But it happens VERY often and I end up having to send it as a text message instead

    You will have to contact your phone carrier as they handle messaging.

  • Problem sending text messages and imessages

    Hi,
    I have been having some problems with my iphone 5 when sending and receiving text messages and imessages. When i go to send a text or imessage it will take a long time for the message to try to send through, then it comes up with message failure. I have full reception and internet connection and the phone is runing on the lastest ios7.1.2, everything is working in that respect. Sometimes it will freeze my whole inbox and i end up having to turn my phone off and on again to unfreeze it. It has also started taking a long time to receive messages, i will get a message and it will say that it was received 30mins ago when its only just shown up on my phone. I am also having problems deleting messages, as it freezes whenever i try to delete them.
    Any suggestions on what to do?

  • Im having a problem with text messaging on my Iphone4s

    The problem started about 2 days ago. Me and my friend were texting and all of a sudden he stopped getting my text. Now i texted him asking if he got my text, and he said No. So we figured it was just a error no biggie right? then it started happening again about 2 hours later. Now we can text but sometimes he doesnt get my text. The text on my phone says that the message was sent, but its as if the text was sent but got lost? if that makes sense.  He does get my texts most of the time but sometimes he doesnt. Now this is not happening to any one else i text, its just him. I dont know if its because of the phones? or what? could it be his phone? i Im trying to figure out why this is happening all of a sudden. And i have no clue why. If someone could please answer my question.

        I know that staying in contact with friends and family overseas is very important p0207111. Are you able to send and receive text from all other contacts on your phone and everyone in the U.S. What country are they sending text from. Have they been able to text you previously? Did they ensure they are not being blocked from their international carrier? If you are able to send and receive text from everyone else, the issue may not be your phone and they will need to check with their carrier for any issues. You can send a private message by clicking creat at the top of your screen and choosing us as the recipient and entering in your message. You can also call us from an alternate phone at 1-800-922-0204 and we can trouble-shoot your issue.

  • E90 Problem sending text messages solved by partia...

    After a couple of months with my Nokia E90 it stopped sending faxes but kept doing everything else. My provider (O2) suggested checking the settings, the message centre, resetting (not clear) and upgrading the software from Nokia's site. None of these worked.
    As I am an O2 select customer, the phone was replaced (twice, thanks for trying O2), the second time with a brand new phone with the same problem. After restoring data from the last backup via pc for the second time, I still had the same problem. Was it the data? A phone virus?
    The problem with the texts was eventually resolved by restoring everything except the settings to the phone. I still do not know what caused in the first place, but it I now have all my data, and can change the settings by hand.
    Thanks to all at O2 for trying to help, I thought I would post this as when I tried to search for the problems online nothing came up.

    OK a couple of months on, it's happened again and this time the partial restore doesn't work. I can't think that I'm doing anything unusual with this phone, so why do I have this problem?

  • Problem sending text only messages. any help?

    I am having a problem sending a messages to one of my contacts. they can text me, but i cannot text them. I can send then MMS messages and call. They are on the Sprint Network. they have this problem only with someone on verizon, i am hoping to get this resolved quickly.

        ModestMoose,
    I totally understand! Rest assurred, this is definitely on her end as the only consistent thing in this situation is her phone/service. If the situation was reversed, and you were the one that could not receive texts from any Sprint customers, we would submit a Trouble Ticket to have our Network Team investigate into what is wrong with your line. Since this is the other way around our best advice is to have your friend contact Sprint and request that a similar process be done to resolve this.

  • Problem sending texts

    I'm having a problem sending texts to certain numbers. I have been able to send them before, but not any more. Delivery report tells me it's been delivered, but the recipient says nothing has arrived. It only seems to happen withcertain numbers.

    If the messages are in your "sent items" folder, then they have successfully left your phone and non-delivery is down to either the network or the phone at the other end.
    As you are getting delivery reports, I would suspect that the receiving phone has some kind of filtering system like that featured in some Nokia Series 30 phones which is filtering the message into a separate folder instead of the user's inbox.

  • Sending Text Messages Issue- Tampa

    Is anyone having problems sending text messages? I can receive text. Data and voice are working. I am in the Tampa bay area. (Brandon/Riverview to be specific)

        Hi mufasawc. Let's get to the bottom of these messaging troubles right away. When you say the green arrow is there for a while, how long is a while? Depending on the message length, if there's any attachments, and the signal strength on your phone a message can take anywhere from a few seconds up to 2 minutes to send at times. I'm glad the messaging on Facebook and Chatheads is working out alright, but those will go through your data network a little differently than text. Did the errors on your Droid 4 start after a particular application was installed? If you haven't already, try deleting some of the messages and threads http://vz.to/18APRgp on your phones to help clear up message memory. If you still have the error, please reply with the exact error your getting too.
    Thank you

  • I am having problems making calls and sending text messages and now getting my iphone activated.

    I have a iPhone 4 and I had problems sending texts and making calls so I got a new one. I then gave my boyfriend my old iphone snd told him if he could get it to work he could have it. For some reason we are having problems getting it to activate. it wont let us make calles to verizon or anything on it. I do still have a warranty on the phone so would I be able to send it in and get a new one? or how does that work?

    Take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • Problem either sending text messages or receiving them

    I have been having a problem for over a month.  I have an HTC Thunderbolt and my boyfriend has a Samsung Galaxy II,  We are both Verizon customers.   Suddenly sometime last month, he stopped receiving text messages from me that are more than a sentence or two.  We haven't figured out where the cutoff seems to be.  But if I send him a message of any length even though my phone says it was sent, it wasn't received on his end.   And suddenly a  few days ago, he received a longer text message that I had sent him in mid July that he had never received before...and he received it twice.  And he also received another old text message from the middle of July, as well, and it was combined with a part of a longer text message I attempted to send him on the weekend.  I have no problem sending longer messages to everyone else I communicate with, but for some reason his phone isn't receiving my texts unless they are short messages.  
    He stopped at a Verizon store today and they told him it must be my phone.  It doesn't make sense.  My phone sends fine and as proven by the fact that he suddenly received a message over a month old last week, the message did leave my phone.  It just took over a month to reach him.  There has to be a problem between his number and mine or something within the settings of his phone must need to be changed to allow him to receive my texts when I send them.
    I'd appreciate any technical help you can provide.  This is really frustrating and aggravating at times when this is the only way we can communicate and our communication has a time requirement.

        Hello to you Anbacheler!
    I text all of the time and I know just how important it is for others to receive my messages.  I could only imagine how frustrated you may be when your boyfriend doesn't receive your entire message.
    Based on the information you've provided it is difficult to find the disconnect.  I personally would prefer to troubleshoot both devices just to be on the safe side.  You mentioned you both are on Verizon so that's what we will do!
    The easiest step to start with is to completely delete and readd both of your contacts from each of your phones. 
    Then I would recommend deleting the Message threads from each other on your phones. 
    If either of you are using a third party messaging application, I would unistall that application for now and see if that corrects the issue.
    Try these steps first and let us know if it worked or not!
    Thanks!
