  • My iPhone 4 will not send or receive texts.

    My iPhone 4 has all the latest software in it. It will not send or receive texts. When trying to send a text it says not delivered .It was working and then just stopped. I did a reset on the phone but it didn't seem to help me.

    SMS is a carrier feature, what did they tell you whether your SMS is properly provision?

  • My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times

    My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times.  My brother has the same phone, lives in the same home and doesn't have this problem.  I can't receive messages without my iphone displaying a message asking for my phone number at random times. It happens intermittently.  Does anyone know why this happens? I am referring to regula text messages not imessages.  I have turned it off and also updated to the most recent software. thanks

    I've been an AT&T customer since they were under different names in the 90s and have never heard/seen that. I would check with them. I'd really like to see that error. To get a screenshot on the phone, press the home button and sleep/wake button together quickly and release. You will see the screen flash slightly and hear the camera shutter noise.

  • Verizon iPhone 5 not sending or receiving texts. iMessage worked for a day then stopped or messages were severely delayed.

    New iPhone 5 on Verizon will not send or receive texts. In the beginning iMessage worked for about a day and then messages started to be delayed by hours. Eventually even these messages were not being sent. Reset network settings followed by a soft re-boot land still no change. Any ideas?

    For iMessage problems, try this:
    - Sign out of iMessage
    - Reset your network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Sign back in to iMessage
    Best of luck.

    Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

    Is this on wifi or cellular data?
    Have you tried a reset? Hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Have you gone into the email settings and making sure the password are still there?

  • ? Exalt does not send or receive text messages

    My Exalt Android phone will not send or receive text messages and the Verizon support area is not responding.

        We apologize for the delay, DieselDoug!
    What device do you have exactly? We want to make sure we get the texts to work again. We are not familiar with Exalt Android.
    Are you using  a text app?

  • IPhone 3GS not sending or receiving texts

    So, my phone hasn't been sending or receiving texts for about two weeks now. I did some research on the internet, and I already tried turning it on and off and turning 3G on and off. Also, my dad used to work for Apple, so I already knew to try resetting my phone, restoring it to factory settings, etc. It still isn't working. Is there anyone who knows how to fix it? Or if it can even be fixed?
    Thank you so much!

    No, I haven't. Should I check on that before I take it to the Apple store?

  • Nokia Lumia 920 does not send or receive texts

    I have 2 new Nokia Lumia 920 phones and neither one can send or receive text messages. I try to send messages between the phones and it appears alright but nothing happens

    Have you the correct message centre number? Your provider should have this on their website.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
    Now using the Lumia 1520

  • Just got an iPhone 5 and does not send or receive texts

    I have re-powered the phone, checked for updates and it still does not text.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks but I don't think Sprint is the problem.  We have house guests and they all have iPhones, 3 on Sprint, one is a 5 and none of them are having issues.  And when I Googled the problem I saw folks from Verizon, Sprint and AT&T all talking about the smae issue...

  • Unable to send or receive text on iphone 5s

    Unable to send a text or receive one on my iphone 5s

    SMS/MMS, which are true text messages (not iMessage) are a carrier function. You need to contact the carrier and have them check your account to see if you have a SMS/MMS plan on your account.

  • Can't send or receive texts on iPhone 5c

    I used to be able to send texts to some people, but not others.  Now after extensive reading and searching online over the last week, I have turned iMessage off, have MMS Messaging turned on, have reset network settings, restarted phone numerous times, turned off iMessage on my MacBook, have data roaming one, verified and changed numersou settings..........., and I can send no text messages at all.  Help!

    Just had a very helpful VZW chat with Natasha. She had me turn wi-fi off and power phone down. She reset some things on her end.  Powered on, texted to myself, didn’t work.  Powered down again, she did some more things, powered up, texted and it worked!

  • Any suggestions as to why my iphone4 suddenly, at full power , will not send or receive texts or make or receive calls?

    Any suggestions as to why my iphone4, at full power, suddenly will not text or call? In or out?

    Hey peterss2,
    I found the following steps for when you're experiencing issues making or receiving calls. If you haven't already, I would start your troubleshooting here:
    Follow the steps below to resolve this issue. Please test after each step.
    Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Check your phone settings:
    Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
    See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
    Ensure that your software is up to date:
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update.
    Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
    If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
    Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try to make or receive calls in another location.
    Attempt to isolate to one network band:
    If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
    If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
    Contact the carrier to check the following:
    Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
    There are no localized service outages.
    Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
    Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
    Restore the phone as new.
