  • Iphone 4s wont send/receive text messages.

    my iphone 4s isnt sending/receiving text messages. when i try to open messages it just says "messages" at the top and then it is a blank page underneath. all of my previous texts were also erased. i updated to IOS 8 2 days ago but the problem just started today.

        detti,
    Text messages are a vital part of a working phone. We encourage you to reset your device. Please back everything up via iTunes or iCloud. Then go to Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings. This will reset the phone and correct anything that maybe causing the issue.

  • My iphone 3gs wont send or recieve calls but sms is working

    My iphone 3gs wont send or recieve calls but sms is working.Signal is good & plenty of credit

    First step is to clean the iPhone charging port with a clean dry toothbrush, also use a bit of Isopropyll Alcohol, and clean especially the pins which are on top of the dock midrib.
    Let it dry for a minute. Then open iTunes on computer, then connect iPhone to computer, then hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is recognized by iTunes in Recovery Mode. Usually about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware.

  • Iphone 5 wont send pictures

    Hi there,
    My iphone phone wont send pictures without me having my mob data on. Once this is on it sends without any problem. But the only problem is that the people i am trying to send photos to if they don't have internet they will not receive this???
    Is this the only way of sending?? Can there be a way like using my credit instead of mob data???
    Thanks

    Hi Paea01,
    You need some form of Internet connection, either Wi-Fi or cellular, to send and receive pictures.

  • Problem sending/ receiveing SMS on a particular port in an intercarrier n/w

    I am using JSR 120 to send & receive SMS on a particular port. This works perfectly between 2 devices using the same carrier.
    if I try sending & receive inter-carrier SMS, like from T-Mobile device to Cingular device (or vice-versa), my j2me app does not receive any SMS on the port it is listening to.
    When the SMS with a port is sent from my app, I get the prompt for permission to send. On pressing OK, the SMS is sent. On the receiving side, the device on the another carrier network receives the SMS in the default inbox, & not by my app.
    I am not sure if this is a inter-carrier SMSC issue or something to do with my app.
    Pl help.

    Has anyone come across the above mentioned problem? Pl let me know if there is any solution.
    Question simply put : When a j2me sms midlet sends an sms on a unique port to another j2me sms midlet listening on the same port, but served by a different carrier (cellular operator), why does the sms go to device inbox & not to my midlet?
    Thank you

    Hi
    There is no need to develope mobile application for
    sending SMS from the PC.
    n general, there are two ways to send SMS messages
    from a computer / PC to a mobile phone:
    Connect a mobile phone or GSM/GPRS modem to a
    computer / PC. Then use the computer / PC and AT
    commands to instruct the mobile phone or GSM/GPRS
    modem to send SMS messages.
    Connect the computer / PC to the SMS center (SMSC) or
    SMS gateway of a wireless carrier or SMS service
    provider. Then send SMS messages using a protocol /
    interface supported by the SMSC or SMS gateway.I would like to know how do you set up the whole thing. What are AT commands and Where do i get thm and how do i use them. i am sorry for asking so many question but i am really interested in knowing this. I am doing my school project which requires me to send sms from my PC.
    Please help!!!!
    Thanks

  • HT201320 my iphone 4 wont send emails

    I'm having two major issues. First, my iphone 4 wont send emails. Second, my deleted emails keep coming back. Help!

    If your phone won't send emails most likely you did not enter your username and passcode for your mail account a second time, for the outgoing mail server.
    Deleted emails coming back is a more complex problem. This will occur if a mail fetch on a POP3 account is not closed properly. This can happen if you attempt to read email before it finishes coming in. When you open the email app wait until all email arrives before reading and deleting it. The phone will beep when the retrieval is finished.

  • Factory unlocked iPhone 5 having problems sending/receiving sms

    Hello,
    I recently bought a factory unlocked iPhone 5 from the apple store in the US and I am unable to send/receive any sms/texts using my mobile provider B&YOU located in France.
    Can anyone help with ways to solve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Suligadal

    Hello Sk8Dreams,
    Thanks for your questions and quick feedback. Yes I turned on SMS & MMS in my settings and yes my plan includes SMS & MMS. I tried something I saw in the forum concerning enabling the "show subject field" and for some strange reason, I am able to send messages after trying this. Seems strange, I am going to disable this "show subject field" and see if it will work or not. SMS should work regardless of if this option is active shouldn't it?
    Thanks

  • IPhone 4 on IOS 5.0.1 can't make or receive calls or send/receive SMS

    Hi there,
    Last friday, I noticed that I can't make or receive calls on my unlocked iPhone 4 on IOS 5.0.1. Until then it works fine. I can't neither send or receive SMS. The Internet connection works fine and I can surf the Internet over 3G.
    I have test the SIM on my 2G iPhone and the calls works right. I have restore the network settings and I have completely restored (including IOS) the device over iTunes but the problem persist.
    Have anyone experienced the same?
    Thanks in advance

    The resolution to my problem was a new phone. My first trip to the Genius Bar I was asked if I had done a complete restore to factory settings. I did that when I got home and the problem with using the phone was unchanged. I went back to the Genius Bar, described that I had restored to factory settings, and the screen still froze when I tried to either end a call or answer a call. They basically said it must be a hardware problem and gave me a new phone. My phone was 3 months old so it was still under warranty.
