I'm receiving some personnal SMS (through iOS 5 imessage) on an old iphone I've already sold. How to avoid that?

Hi,
I used to have an iPhone 3GS, which I recently upgraded to iOS 5 and sold. This device doesn't have any of my personnal information inside anymore (several resets and reinstall iOS5 from an blank iTunes on a seperate computer) and doesn't have my chip inside anymore.
I am using a new smartphone (not Apple) now and when I text friends who have iPhone (with iOS 5 and iMessage), I receive some of the personnal responses on the old iPhone. It seems those messages are sent through iMessage...
How to avoid that? I sold this iPhone and I don't want the buyer to receive my personnal message + I don't want to miss them on my new phone!
Thanks for the help.
Franck.

I would suggest you read the user guide.  There IS no Facetime App for the iPhone.

    Check under Settings > iCloud to see if the Contacts switch is ON (green side showing). If it's already on, switch it off for 30-60 seconds, then back on again. Your contacts should start showing up shortly.

    You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone.  That's relatively easy.  Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one.  For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

  • A family member gave our kids their old iphone with music already loaded for them.  How do we add the music to our library? It won't transfer purchases from the phone and if I sync it, the music is erased.  Can someone walk me through this?

    No one here will help you violate iTunes terms of service or steal music.

    Only way to get it back is to restore your phone from a backup, if those pics were included in that backup.
    But most likely those pics are gone.
    What you should've done was import http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 the pics to your computer and after you restored from your old backup, you could sync those new pics to your phone via itunes.

    You'll need an external editor for that kind of work.
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    Comic Life 2 (http://plasq.com/products/comiclife2)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • Does SMS relay iOS 8.1 cause extra iPhone battery usage?

    I was messing with both SMS relay the other day and noticed that my battery drained almost twice as fast..
    I was also messing with handoff and basically just testing the new integration features between Yosemite and iOS8.1
    But my question is about SMS relay.. Does anyone know if this will us up more iPhone battery than if I wasn't using SMS relay and just SMSing from the iPhone itself?
    Does SMS relay work via bluetooth? Could this be a cause for extra battery usage? It could be possible that I was jus using my phone a bit extra that day but I just want to make sure as I have SMS relay turned off for now, don't want battery life dropping..

    I had the same problem. I realized that it had everything to do with my calendar app. My iCalendar was having a difficult time fetching information from my Outlook and Yahoo Calendar. Causing my battery percentage to decline at a very rapid rate. (50% in a 4 hour time frame). I resolved the  problem by going into my Settings >" Messaging , Contact , Calendar" Setting > Clicking on one of my selected Accounts ( Outlook or Yahoo) and turning off the Calendar Sync. The problem seemed to go away after doing this. Now I'm only using 4% battery life in a 4 hour time frame in StandBy Mode. Well I Can only hope that this will help resolve the battery drainage issue. Good Luck ....

  • HT5622 my new samsung phone will not receive text messages from my old iphone friends and family.  I was told that I need to close my icloud account in order to correct this issue but I cannot find a way to close my icloud.  Help?

    I cannot receive text messages on my new samsung phone from any of my old iphone contacts.  I was told that I need to close my icloud in order to fix this problem but i can't find a way to close my icloud account.  Help...

    You can try changing the password for the Apple ID you were using for iMessage on your iPhone by going to https://iforgot.apple.com.  If that doesn't help, you'll have to contact Apple support for assistance: http://www.apple.com/support/contact/.

  • How can i copy all SMS and Imessage from my old iphone(4s) to my new iphone(6plus)?

    I have over 8000 SMS in my 4s, so I want copy all of it to my 6plus but I dont know how to do that
    p/s: sorry about my Eng ^^

    Hello there TGF07,
    You can transfer your messages from the 4s to your 6Plus by restoring a backup of the 4s to your other phone. Keep in mind this will overwrite what is on that phone right now, so be sure to import any new photos to your computer. This article will help you backup the 4s, then restore that backup to your 6Plus:
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iCloud or iTunes
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How do I prevent someone from receiving my iMessages on my old iPhone?

    The new owner of my old iPhone is receiving iMessages that are intended for me (by simply "texting" me). People say when they "text" (fellow iPhone/iMesssage" friends), the messages bounce back. Is there anything I can do on my end to prevent this from happening? I have changed my iTunes ID & password... Many thanks!

    You need to log turn imessage off on the old phone and change your Apple ID password.
    Delete the phone from your profile in https://supportprofile.apple.com if you registered your phone there

  • I cannot send a contact details by sms on iOs 5.1.1 on iPhone 4s

    I only receive the option to do this via email and not via sms. What do I need to do to reenable this capability ?

    In Contacts app, choose a contact, scroll down and tap Ahare Contact and tap the Message button.
    Do you have text message provision by your carrier?

  • I had deleted some Apps on my iOS Devices (iPad mini and iPhone 5), but they are still in the Cloud. How can I delete them in the Cloud, too ?

    Hallo together,
    I had deleted some Apps on my iPhone and iPad, but they are still in the Cloud. My First iPhone was a 2, my Second a 4S and now I use a 5. With the 2 I had used a different Apple-ID, but I put some Apps via Backup from one Apple-ID to another. As I get a Message by furtherly Backups, that some Apps are not can be saved because the Apple-ID is no longer on that PC registred, I had deleted this Apps to get they new for the actually Apple-ID. But I'm not shure, when I install them now, that they are working under the correct Apple-ID.
    Any Ideas to solve the Probs ?

    Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

  • My screen has some lines going through it, it is the old model.

    My screen now has a line about 2 inches wide going across it. I have restarted it a couple of times to no avail. It has not fallen that I am aware of.

    Thank you for trying to help. I followed your advice but the lines are still there. I made an appointment to see the Apple tech. Appreciate your effort!!

  • Can't download iOS 5 to my old iPhone 4 - I get an error message saying I don't have enough space on my computer, but I know that I do.  How can upload successfully?  Or can I hook up an external hard drive to ENSURE I have enough space? If so, how?

    I just tried to download the new iOS 5 software during my sync with iTunes on my computer to my iPhone 4, however, I got an error message saying that I did not have enough space on my computer to continue (even though I am pretty sure I do).  It offered me the choice of deleting much of the media on my iPhone in order to continue, which of course I declined.
    How can I ensure that I have enough space on my computer to download the new iOS 5 software?  I don't want to delete anything on my computer and I have already defragged.  Can I just hook up an external hard drive which I am certain has enough space?  If so, how can I ensure that iTunes recognizes the external hard drive as the drive that it should be downloading the software to?
    Thanks

    Why, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
    At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards.
