Missing occasional texts to and from android users

I Have discovered that one android user has not been receiving some of my texts. About 2/5 will say sent but will never arrive to recipient. I tested varying lengths of texts and content (emojis, pictures) and could not find any discernible pattern.
      Then I discovered that occasionally texts from a different android user would say sent from their phone, but never arrive at mine.
I do not have iMessage turned, recently or currently, nor did either of the android users have iMessage turned on on any previous phones.
AS far as I know, there are only two phones I'm having issues communicating with, but it is very hard to determine whether myself or other are NOT receiving texts for obvious reasons.
THis his problem does seem to have only begun when I updated my operating system to 8.1.3.
Someone please help me, this is getting really confusing. I've tried searching both Apple and android forums and habe not found any solutions yet.
Thank you in advance.

Another option to try for thses sorts of issues is a Reset.

  • In my wife's iPad she cannot send a text message to an Android user, but I can on mine.  Both use the same 8.1 iOS.  When she types in the addressee name it comes up in red and will not allow "send."

    How do you send a text message to an Android user via Messages?  My wife and I both have iPads running 8.1 iOS.  When she types in the addressee name it appears in red (not in mine).  Then she is not allowed to send.

    There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage.   There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
    I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

    You could create the new Apple ID for her and keep the existing one for you.
    If you need/want to keep the same ID, perhaps this article will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538

    Anybody Please tell me, how to make this happen.
    Regards
    Seshasai

    I have the same problem from iPhone5S to S3. Finally I switched to iPhone 5S from a Samsung Galaxy Android. This device is absolutely flawless. Noticeable faster than my S3 which I never thought was slow. Camera is good too. So far I'm pleased!
    Now back to the topic. I have used the program called mobitrans phone transfer to transfer all the data (including SMS and contacts) from my galaxy android to my new iPhone 5S:
    I guess it supports all the android and iPhone devices.

  • Missing Format Text, Insert, and Edit Source, etc Options on Some Pages

    I’m having trouble understanding why certain pages have more edit options than others. I’m new to Sharepoint Workspace 2010 and I’ve been reading/ researching for answers for 2 days now. I tried to HyperSnap in some pictures however it will not allow me
    to until my account is verified and it's not sending a verification email, sorry!
    Issue: 
    On some pages, I have the edit pencil with lots of great edit options such as Format Text, Insert and Edit Source. (This is good!)
    On some pages I have no edit pencil, but when I go to Page
    à Edit Page à I get few edit options, not including Format Text, Insert or Edit Source. (This is not good)
    After reading other somewhat similar posts, I noticed that on the pages where I get lots of edit options, they show SitePages in the URL. Where I get few edit options, SitePages is not in the URL.
    Is there a fix so that I can have the expanded edit options in all of my pages? Thank you for your help!

    Hi,
    In SharePoint we don’t have edit page options [ribbon toolbar page edit formatting options] for all types of page for application page we cannot edit application page like site pages
    again the missing edit button might be due to many causes:  
    Can you verify that it's not a permissions issue? Try navigating to the page in edit mode by appending to the url: your-site/Pages/YourPage.aspx?ControlMode=Edit&DisplayMode=Design
    Or you can try this
    your-site/Pages/YourPage.aspx? ?ToolPaneView=2
    1. You can check  that on some pages the ribbon is hidden by default. You need to make it visible by clicking on "Show Ribbon" on the "Site Actions" drop-down menu.
    2. You haven't been doing Visual Upgrade (which actually replaces your master page with the v4.master)
    3. If you have different master page and may be your master page is not 100% compatibile with SP2010, nor does it use the elements from v4.master (collaboration) or the example nightandday.master
    To add the button in your page you could use the <SharePoint:PageStateActionButton id="PageStateActionButton" runat="server" Visible="false" /> (if you've seen already that would generate the button on the left side of
    the ribbon)!
    Please can you ping the URL of the page and how you crated that page to further assist, we would be happy to help.

  • IOS & iPhone new features questions from Android user

    Hi there. I have heard good things about the new iOS 8.3 and iPhone 6 but find certain aspects restrictive . I'm an Android user for five years running and would like to explore more on the issue / owning an iPhone by focussing on things that matter to me on my day to day use of a phone:
    1. Is there a custom equaliser setting that one can set via the iPhone or iPad itself without setting it on iTunes?
    2. Sharing photos
    I have downloaded Dropbox, signed-in, set sharing to Photos enabled and yet it doesn't show when i want to share/forward my photos. Would this sound like a bug or incompatibility with iOS?
    3. Any new battery saving option (like Android) on iOS 8.3?
    4. Any further improvements in terms of support for 3rd-party sharing & saving options like for instance in Shazam and Evernote?
    5. I have a Chromecast and i would like to cast/stream my files so i can listen to my TV. Is there any app to do that?
    6. Is there a way to save an entire article (news or a tech article) from Safari or a third-party app to another app such as Evernote or Notepad? (for reading later)
    Any comments are much appreciated. Many thanks.

    Have you enabled Camera Upload in Dropbox's Settings?

    You can tap on the Activities icon (box with an arrow pointing up and out), tap on the More item on the bottom row (scroll to right if needed) and enable Convert to PDF. Then it can be opened in iBooks, the official PDF reader amongst other things, or install the latest Acrobat DC instead. If the article is already in PDF format, you'll find a Send To… item amongst the allowed activities.
    BTW, have you downloaded or read online the full iPhone manual?

  • Texting to and from Puerto Rico with unlimited texting plan?

    Hi there,
    I have an unlimited texting plan and I was wondering if that also covers Puerto Rico, besides the U.S.  If so then what are the rates for sending and receiving texts from Puerto Rico.
    thank you,

    Yes It does. It would be the same as your texting plan.

  • Picture messages from android user

    Several times I have received a picture message from an andriod user saying:
    <Share image via GO SMS> then a link
    after trying to open the link, it doesn't work. I've googled and googled trying to figure out why I am unable to open this message, or why they are coming in as links instead of pictures, but I cannot find any answers.
    Anyone know the answer to this?

    ^ This.  This is what happens when a person wants to spam you. This is what happens when you block someone, and they still know how to add you to a group. And once you're added to that group, they can spam you from that group. This is what happens when Skype doesn't block incoming messages from blocked users in groups.
    ... There's more, by the way. It's not as short as that. I've got months worth of logs of this, spamming me from different groups, and endlessly just creating new groups and adding me and messaging me then disbanding only to create anew. My "Recent" tab doesn't work anymore, as there's constant harrassment, and as much as I "block", the spam continues in groups. Well #@^& done, Skype; it's like "Blocked" doesn't even exist. I would seriously like to see a change or two to the application's Group functions to stop people like this. Each of them has been warned that police will soon be involved for harrassment, but it doesn't seem Skype wants to make a change to stop it...

  • HT4528 i upgraded from an iphone to a Samsung galaxy and now i am unable to receive text messages now from iphone users.the iphones think that my number is still another iphone and always sends a message as imessage.

    Upgraded from iphone to a Samsung and now i am unable to receive text messages from other iphone users unless they disable imessage .
    Being my original number was on an iphone is why this is happening .
    Please help. Almost everyone has an iphone

    You should have turned iMessage off before disabling the phone. Do you still have the phone so you can turn iMessage off? If not, you will need to go to Apple support on their website and delete the product from your profile.

  • I can't receive mms from android users since up dating to ios6. Has anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it?

    The message comes through, but has a question mark instead of the picture. Has anyone got any ideas? I don't really want to go back to old firmware.

    Is it formatted Mac OS Extended (journaled)?  If not do so using Disk Utility.
    P.S.  If you store live fies on an external disk you need to back it up just like data on your internal disk or if and when that disk crashed then, poof, all your music will be gone.
    If you do not already have one, purchase an external drive to dedicate to Time Machine backups.  Then in the Time Machine exclusions list, remove the image of the music offload disk.  Then both your internal and external live drives will be backed up to the Time Machine disk.

  • How can I get my phone to send and receive messages from android users

    You contacted your carrier, what did they say. There is no special setting on the iPhone for SMS, only MMS. You can go into Settings>Messages, make sure that MMS is turned on for media messages, but SMS has to be activated at the carrier end.,

  • Reset value of text box and still have user input as well.

    Hi,
    I currently have a PDF form that helps users print of labels depending what is entered into the first page and one of the boxes has an 'Additional Info' box that puts unto 10 characters onto one of the labels.
    This was made because a customer wanted something defining on the boxes so I included it on the box label now I have found another use for it.
    If a customer asks we can make a custom size curtain but only so many can fit in a box as we show on the label how many fits in the box depending on the size via icons and I have decided to use this extra info to define how many are in this box if the customer asks for a custom size and I have managed to be able to have a dialogue box that the user enters how many will be in the box and it will enter that into the extra info box but I have found no way of clearing it when we start using standard size again except from event.value = " " unfortunately this stops the user from being able to edit anything within the box as it clears as any calculation is run through again.
    I have tried using
    if (this.getField("SizeDrop").value == 'BE'){
    event.value = this.getField("csn").value + " IN A BOX"
    } else {
    event.value.defaultValue;
    but it will not clear the box but allows the user to clear it and be able to put any other information in it if required.
    is there anyway of having the box cleared after "SizeDrop" is changed from 'BE'?
    Thanks,
    Bruce

    Hi - Thanks for your time; I was trying to make it work without using the operator pattern MATCH within the prompt definition; i dont want to show the answers report to the user with the words like contains any, pattern match so i was trying to use the operator equal to/is in within the prompt definition which does not work

  • RickTextbox - getting and saving the text to and from SQL server database

    I have no trouble saving the data to an SQL Server database.  Here is a sample of what is saved.

    when I retrieve the text from the database, I end up with exactly what is shown above.  I am retrieving the text with a SqlDataReader.  here is the code that I am using;
    while (sqlDataReader.Read())
    string special_Instructions = ""; //first I was using this line but both lines have the same result // special_Instructions = sqlDataReader["Special_Instructions"].ToString();
    special_Instructions = sqlDataReader.GetString(5);
    special_InstructionsRichTextBox.Rtf = special_Instructions;
    any guidance or help will be greatly appreciated.

    Michael,
    Lets begin with, 'Thanks for your guidance'. With your last run of questions, I was able to figure it out.
    Here is what I learned, (by the way, this is in Winforms):
    When I checked the properties of the RichTextBox control, I saw and then remembered that the control was bound to the form.  First thing I did was comment out the code I was using (above) to fill the control and tested the program.  I actually
    received the same issue with the contents of the control as before.
    I then dropped a new RichTextBox control from the tool box to my form and positioned it next to the original control.  I un commented the above code and used it to fill the new
    richTextBox1.Rtf and ran the program.  The original control that was bound to the form still gave the incorrect result but the new control worked perfectly.
    I hope this helps others and Thanks again for your guidance.  If there is anything else you think could be added to this reply please let me know.
    dave

  • Error in creation of text indexes and synching with user datastore

    Hi
    has any body encountered error in creating text indexes on 9.2.0.1 with user datastore. you can create them only with no-populate option. however once created after checking-in documents the indexes cannot be synched using ctx_ddl command manually.

    The only thing that I have seen similar to this was worked around by updating the column to itself, then sync...not sure if this is the same thing you are running into, but it may be worth a try. See the Oracle Text FAQ - take special note of step c:
    ===============================
    Creates the index without populating it.

    b. Mark globalindexedblob column in every row as updated.
    SQL > update odmm_contentstore set globalindexedblob = globalindexedblob;
    c. Sync the index. If you skipped the previous step, then this step does not index content that existed prior to index creation in step a.

  • Cant recieve emojis from android user

    My friend has downloaded an iphone emoji keyboard off of his android phone. When he sends them to me, all I recieve are numbers and symbols. He recieves my emojis that I send to him just fine, but when he sends them to me it doesnt work. Is there something I can download that will allow me to see his emojis?

    No. The iPhone deals in standards compliant emojis that are built-in to the OS. Apparently the Android device doesn't.
    Your friend will have to find a better emoji keyboard app that deals in standards compliant emojis, or he should contact the developer of the app for assistance.
    There's nothing wrong with your iPhone or anything that needs adjusting on it. The problem is with your friends Android device which do not have native support for standards compliant emoji.
