IPhone vs Android.  Cannot receive texts after having iPhone now switched to Android.  Unregistered device, turned off iMessage, what now?

I had an iPhone for 1 week.  Switched from an Andriod to Apple for 1 week. Went back to Android.  Turned off iMessage, unregistered the device...  STILL CANNOT GET TEXTS FROM APPLE USERS!  Advice?

ALSO!  Had everyone double tap on the message they sent and confirmed that they sent it via SMS.

    Call AppleCare and ask them to deactivate iMessage. It might take awhile to become effective.

  • Most iPhone user's cannot receive text from me and my NEW Note 4

    I chose to try the pre-installed +Messenger app from Verizon to be used rather than the fuctional default messenger. It wasn't what I expected so I switched back to the original message app. Well, that's when the issue's began with most of my contacts who use Iphone's.
    I would send text to iPhone user's with no delivered confirmation text being returned as a notification. So I called them and they said they didn't receive a text. I realized the problem was a conflict with going back to the original messaging app/software.
    Went to the Verizon store where I purchased the phone three times! The first salesman told me to have the iPhone user's to go into their text settings and turn on "Send MMS". That didn't resolve the issue. The second salesman called tech support and fixed the problem. Although I didn't know  was done but, it was apparently a temporary fixed because it continued to happen
    The 3rd salesman had to reset to factory settings and disabled/removed the +Messenger app from Verizon.
    Still experiencing this stressful issue with my Note4.
    PLEASE HELP ME!

    Sorry to hear that! I tend to use the default Messages app more than anything else too.
    I'm curious about your issue because you said "most iPhone users..." That can make the situation a little bit tricky, but it can also be used to your advantage, because if you compare the messaging/cellular settings on one iPhone that works and one that doesn't, you will likely find your resolution. I'd suggest looking at an iPhone that doesn't receive your messages and try to make the settings match the settings of an iPhone that successfully receives your texts.
    Since it only happens with iPhone users the problem is likely not on your end; it's more than likely an issue with iMessage on the recipients' phone, but you can certainly try to deactivate your iMessage account (if you have one). Deregister and Turn Off iMessage - Apple Support. Bear in mind that this tool is usually used to solve issues that are the opposite of yours (iPhone users cannot send texts to you).

  • I've switched to galaxy note 3 and I cannot receive text messages from iphones. I can send but cannot receive. Apple wants to charge me to get help.  Can anyone help?

    Ok, all of your posts with "solutions" to the problem are great but many are incorrect and pointlessly excessive. All you need to do is simply follow these steps and there will, usually, be no actual NEED to contact AppleCare tech support:
    1. Turn off iMessages on your mobile device that you are getting rid of.
    2. (For some situations) Step 1, normally, will deactivate your number from the messaging database that Apple keeps. But, you have to actually TURN OFF iMessages. Otherwise, if you no longer have the iPhone or other Apple mobile device THEN call AppleCare tech support and let them know that you simply need them to De-Register the phone number associated with your Facetime and iMessages accounts.
         ***There is no need to reference the article TS5185 as they will simply do what you ask them to do so long as your word it right and don't make them have to probe and fish for more details. I repeat...."De-Register your phone number associated with your Facetime and iMessages"
    3. Have your friends and family members that are using iPhones delete any and ALL previous conversation threads that they have from texting/messaging you saved on their iPhones.
         ***This is important because Messages remember where they originated and will always attempt to go back there even if you are trying to get texts to show on a new Apple device, like an iPad.
    4. If you are attempting to get Messages on two Apple mobile device then follow steps 1-3 and then verify that all of your mobile devices have the EXACT same Send & Recieve settings. Once that has been established you can then initiate a conversation on either mobile device and you will be able to see the conversation take place on both devices.

  • Cannot receive texts after new iOS 7 , checked everything help section told me to do!

    Messaging to other iPhone users is not working after ios7 upgrade. I receive them on my ipad but not phone. I have a 4s. I have followed all suggested troubleshooting and still not working!  Any ideas?

    The same issue I had for an iPhone4.
    During iOS7 upgrade connection to iCloud was always failing so after many retries I skipped it thinking it can be done later when upgrade has been completed.
    But no. I am wrong.
    Even connection to apple store is no longer possible after I signed out and tried to sign in again. Getting error about failed to contact server.
    I was trying since last night 10 hours ago and trying again now for many times with no success.
    Why is that Apple?

  • Cannot receive texts from other iphones

    My texts (incoming) go to messages on my imac but not in my iphone?

    iMessages, not text messages as in SMS/MMS.
    On your iPhone, go to Settings > Messages. Is iMessage turned on?
    If so, go to Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage At:
    If your cell phone number is selected for this with Messages on your Mac, is your cell phone number selected for this with iMessage on your iPhone? The same if you have an email address selected for this with Messages on your Mac. Is the same email address available and selected for this with iMessage on your iPhone?

    Really?
    iMessage data usage is miniscule over 3G...about 1kb per message, & NO 3G data if connected to WiFi.
    Seems to me you're making a mountain out of a mole hill.

  • Can't receive texts after switch

    I switched to a galaxy note 3 and have turned off and reset everything on iPhone and took my phone number off iMessages on macbook air and still cannot receive texts from anyone

    Call Applecare, and tell them you need to revoke your iMessage token. 

  • Can I Turn off iMessage in a group text with multiple people with different devices? There's 1 person in the group text that doesn't use iPhone anymore and they can't see any messages that are sent unless we send as regular text individually.

    Is there a way to turn off iMessage for a group text that includes multiple people with different non-apple devices? When a message is sent, only the iPhone users can see the iMessage. Those without them cannot see the texts unless we send individual Text Messages or turn off iMessage completely.

    now I have this and it still doesn't work.
