IPhone 4S SMS issues

I am having issues with SMS messages coming from Ukraine.
One text will be ok, but if one is sent soon after the first, it comes across in Japanese language.
They checked and it is not on their end. When I had the IPhone 3, I did not have this problem.
Can you help me ?

  • IPhone 4 SMS issues...not 1 way text

    I recently bought an iPhone 4 from verizon. I noticed a SMS issues...getting text from other cell phones with no problem but not from 1 way texts(I.e. Banks, Internet). Tried to open my mobile banking/alerts on my credit cards ( 4 total). When the companies text me the verification code I never received text. Talked with verizon but they didn't find any issues. Their text test came immediately through. They had me send text to my self via (www.txt drop.com) but never got those texts....help What the heck is going on...

    If it is not reaching your iPhone has to be an issue with either Verizon or the person sending it.

  • IPhone 3G SMS Issues Post-3.0OS Upgrade

    **Please note: I am trying to send just regular text messages, not picture text messages.**
    After updating my iPhone 3G to the 3.0OS, I noticed that my text messages started to get really flaky (i.e. could not send messages, only receive). I thought that Rogers (Canada) was having difficulties due to the iPhone 3.0OS and iPhone 3GS releases, so I waited patiently and thought this issue would resolve itself.
    I have spent over an hour and half on the phone with Rogers (Canada) representatives and the only thing they have done is told me to “Reset Network Settings.” Finally, after a lot of troubleshooting I have figured out what my problem is. Hopefully someone can shed some light on the situation.
    1) In order to send a text message to someone outside my area code, I MUST have no prior conversation with them stored on my iPhone. I can send unlimited SMSs to them, but as soon as they respond back, I cannot simply touch reply and respond to them. I have go into Messages, touch EDIT, then delete the entire conversation. This means I have to do this every time someone from outside my area code SMSs me. This is not only annoying, but defeats the whole purpose of the “conversation/chat” style of the iPhone.
    2) If I am outside my local area, then I must perform the above steps in order to send a message. I MUST have no prior conversations stored in my iPhone.
    3) Everything is fine and dandy for calls within my local calling area. No error messages.
    I am wondering if anyone has these problems as well. I did not experience any of these problems prior to upgrading to the 3.0OS. Any advice on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
    *P.S. I have also tried manually typing in the phone number, by using both 10 digits and the “+1”-then area code. It doesn’t seem to make a difference what number I use, as soon as I get a message back I cannot respond to it unless I clear the conversation.
    Thanks!

    I also have had this problem since the 3.0 upgrade and don't have a solution yet. Here is what I have done so far.
    1) Talked to Rogers, they suggested network reset and entering in the message centre number. No change.
    2) Talked to Apple today for an hour who also got Rogers on the line. After much testing including swapping SIM cards from my work cel, also Rogers, we concluded the problem is in the phone, not the account.
    3) Apple suggested a restore of the phone, which I had tried. They suggested deleting the downloaded firmware from iTunes and letting it download again in case it was corrupted. This I did, no change.
    I cannot fault Apple or Rogers tech support, they were both most helpful and called me back several times but neither had a solution.
    The issue is most strange because I can send a message to anyone, but the error comes up when you reply. But the strangest thing is that it's not to everyone. I have no problems texting my sister back and forth in L.A. for example. But two contacts here in town, one on Rogers, one not, I cannot send replies to. I have to clear the conversation and send a fresh message.
    To add one more wrinkle, earlier today I WAS able to reply to a previously unreliable (is that a word?) contact but only once. After that, the errors returned.
    Short of getting a new phone somehow to test, I'm at a loss. I will see if Rogers will swap the phone though. Also, this weekend I should be in Vancouver and can visit the Apple store. If I find a solution at all, I will post here.
    Cheers.

  • IPhone 4S SMS Issue

    When I try sending a text to my girlfriend the occasional time my text won't deliver, it says it sent and doesn't show the exclamation mark or anything. I can recieve texts from her just fine all the time. I'm on Telus and she has a Blackberry with Virgin. I've tried restoring my phone, resetting the network settings, etc and nothing has worked. Are there any other things I could do to possibly fix this issue or could it simply be a network issue?

  • IPhone 4 SMS issue

    Hello, I have had the strangest thing happen when receiving a text from another iPhone 4 user. The text that I received was not the text that was sent by my friend. I will try and explain further...... When reading the text, i was sure it was not meant for me as it seemed to be a continuation from another conversation, not with myself but the end of the text related to our previous conversation. It looked liked another messaged was pasted into our chat by mistake. I asked my friend what he was on about and he sent me a screen shot of what he actually sent. This was different to what I received, except the last bit.
    Has this ever happened to anyone? I've Googled but found nothing

    99% a phone network thing rather then a iphone thing

  • IPhone 3GS SMS tones

    Will I be able to change SMS tones with the new iPhone 3GS????
    and changing it without doing anything non-apple to it. I just want to use my own mp3 tone.

    I Recommend that Apple allows one to change the SMS message alerts (Audible, Vibrate, and visual).
    I work at True Call International, who issues pagers to everyone. Recently the company I work for has implemented the company alert system to include SMS addresses of people who wish not to carry a pager and phone all the time.
    However, until Apple addresses the SMS issue, I can't see the iPhone as an approved pager replacement device.
    Does anyone know of any "Feedback or Suggestion" pages that will get to the great minds at Apple?
    Thanks,

  • IPhone 5 Calendar Issue: January 1, 1995

    I flew from the Eastern Time Zone into Central Time Zone, which is my home time zone, this afternoon, and tonight my iPhone 5 is telling me the date is January 1, 1995. Can anyone help explain why this is happening, and/or how to fix it? It sometimes switches back to the correct date, but only for a minute or less. I have restarted my phone twice and it has not worked, even when I kept my phone off for over an hour. When the date is January 1st, 1995, I cannot send texts, or go onto the internet, or use any apps using data. PLEASE HELP!!
    Much thanks

  • Lumia 1020 SMS Issue.

    Been having issues for a few months now and haven't been able to find any solutions online. I'm having an issue where I can not send messages to certain numbers and I am just receiving the "Can't send" message as if I had no signal. What's even more confusing is that I have no issue receiving messages from these numbers, I am just incapable of replying. Currently this is only affecting a few contacts, but obviously this is an extremely annoying issue. If you have any advice or tips to solve this issue I would greatly appreciate it. Oh and I've just carried out all possible updates and still the problem persists.
    -Thanks for taking the time to read this, MuirC

    Hi MuirC,
    We appreciate your effort in posting your concern on the forum. By the way, are you still experiencing the SMS issue? If yes, have you tried using another SIM card if it makes any difference? Make sure to use the  original Micro SIM  and not the modified one. You may also try checking this Nokia Lumia 1020 - Troubleshooter for a possible resolution. Any update is very much appreciated. 

  • Changed Apple ID password and now Iphone 6 having issues

    I had to reset my password when signing into my apple ID and now my Iphone is having issues.  I can not use imessage. Under settings, It will not allow me to turn it on.  Also under settings my facetime and iCloud are greyed out.  I can using os8.1.2  What am I missing?

    I had the exact same problem and this solution from another thread worked for me:
    "I was able to fix it by entering another email address even though it was wrong/invalid. Once I got the "incorrect email/password" message I then re-entered my actual apple ID and it finally took it. Make sure FaceTime is enabled and working first."
    In the FaceTime App, I entered a fictitious Apple ID and password. Then it actually signed me out. After that, I entered my AppleID and my new password and it did verify my email address.

  • 1.1.3 & sms issue

    1.1.4 didnt fix the sms issue ... i still get errror invalid number . please resnd useing a valid 10 digital number or valid short code.

    Make sure you are only using the 10 digit mobile number and not including a 1 in front....like you would typically do when dialing long distance. If that is not the problem you're having.....then I'm clueless as to why you are getting an error.

    Hi clintfromid,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend closing all your apps and restarting and maybe resetting as good initial troubleshooting steps for this:

  • I am frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues, while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode

    Hi,
    Greetings !!!
    I would like to know what is the root cause of Iphone camera hanging ?
    I am very frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues like while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode with full of pink & black line.
    I noticed while camera app turns ON the phone going to hand.
    I went to apple services server with this problem & they said they didn't see any errors.
    Kindly response with my request, and provide me the solution.
    Thannks & regards,

    That often happens with cameras when you take pictures of a computer screen. LCD screens "flicker" and the camera will often catch the flicker.

  • IPhone-iTunes Syncing Issues  (3G Phone w/ 2.2 Firmware & iTunes 9.0.1)

    Please feel free to inform me if this inquiry might be better posted in a different section of the discussion forums.
    *iPhone-iTunes Syncing Issues*
    (3G Phone w/ 2.2 Firmware & iTunes 9.0.1.8 running on a Dell PC w/ Windows XP Pro Operating System)
    With the newest 9.0.1 version of iTunes...
    When you synch your Windows XP Pro PC with your iPhone (3G) device & instruct the software to synchronize your iPhone Safari "Bookmarks" with your PC's Internet Explorer "Favorites," should there not be a bi-directional transfer of the information?
    (from iPhone to PC and also from PC to iPhone?)
    I synched my phone yesterday & it appears that there was a successful transfer of Internet Explorer "Favorites" into the iPhone. However, neither were my iPhone Safari "Bookmarks" retained on the iPhone nor were they transferred over to the PC (& into Internet Explorer).
    Do I need to also install Safari on the PC to get a successful bi-directional transfer? OR am I simply not looking in the correct place on the computer to retrieve all the Bookmarks that were apparently removed from the iPhone?
    Furthermore, I've been experiencing difficulty with getting PodCasts that are already sitting in my iTunes account to transfer over to the iPhone 3G.
    When I launch the synch operation, commonly the iTunes progress meter will seemingly go to completion. However, the iPhone will ultimately disappear from the left-side iTunes windowpane & the actual iPhone screen will continue to state: "Sync in Progress." The iPhone will remain in this state for HOURS & HOURS, until I ultimately slide the button to cancel the operation. I have literally left the iPhone connected to the synch computer while the iPhone's "Sync in Progress" status message remained the same for *17+ HOURS. This can not be normal*.
    Any insight would be helpful.

    Note: I resolved the issue by uninstalling and reinstalling itunes with this procedure;-)
