My iphone4 wont send or recieve text message

My iphone4 won't send or receive text messages!!

Hey there ImThatHooper_,
It sounds like your phone is unable to send iMessages, SMS or MMS text messages. I recommend the following article to help you troubleshoot 1 or all 3 of those services named:

  • Unable to send or recieve text messages

    For some reason I am unable to send or recieve text messages, can anyone help me with this situation

    Hi ,
    Is your Orange phone still working? The EE phone will have a temporary number until yours transfers over.
    When this has transfered you will need to do the below:
    Update your number
    Go to Settings > Phone > My Number.
    Replace the temporary number you find there with your own number - use +44 instead of the first 0.
    Then tap Save.
    Reset iMessage settings
    Your iMessage settings won't reset themselves during porting - the temporary number will still be in your new iPhone.
    To input your old number into your new iPhone:
    Go to Settings
    Tap on Messages
    Tap iMessage ON
    Scroll down to Send & Receive number
    Replace the temporary number with your old number
    Then tap Save.
    That's it, you're all ready for action. with your number.

  • Can't send or recieve text messages on the 7610

    Whilst on holiday my phone stopped beingable to send or recieve text messages. It was working for a few days but then just stopped and the message "delete some data to recieve sim messages". I deleted almost everything but nothing has worked. Im now back in the U.K and its still the same. Also, underneath the battery bar is an icon which I have never seen before, its the number 1 with an arrow underneath it going from left to right and pointing mid way thru.
    Is this a virus? Can anyone help please?

    I'd upgrade your firmware because when I had a 7610 it used to do all sorts of dodgy things like what has happened to you.

  • Can't send or recieve text messages via WiFi

    I have a Galaxy S4 and live in a black hole; little or no cell service. If I go outside I might get one bar.  This is not my issue though, as I'm used to this and have a land line.  However, I would like to be able to send and received text messages via WiFi on my phone.  But I get a message that there is no service available, even though I have WiFi enabled and have a good WiFi signal.  How can I get my phone to use WiFi for sending and receiving text messages at home?

    Text messages go through the voice cellular network not wifi.
    You might want to check out a third party messaging app that uses data either cellular or wifi to send messages.

  • Cannot send or recieve text messages through Ford Sync system since latest O.S. update 10.3.1.1779

    My Blackberry Classic easily connected to my Lincoln's Sync system. I was able to receive and send text messages through the Sync. Since the latest O.S. update, I can no longer connect sms services through Sync.
    Should I restore to previous O.S.?

    Yes my particular issue is not like yours. However, there have been many other laptop users experiencing similar problem to yours after 3.10 kernel. Mostly it seems to be bumblebee users that experience your problem with the blank screen. We do know that nvidia have yet to make their official drivers work with kernel 3.10 and up. The drivers in the Arch repository have been patched to work with 3.10. From what I have seen, this also only seem to be affecting laptops with newer nvidia gpu's. I fear there is not much to do with this problem until nvidia give official 3.10 kernel support.
    My suggestion would be to stick with 3.9.9 kernel and the drivers that work with it, and don't upgrade those packages until nvidia has addressed these issues. If you have a look at the nvidia forums you will see quite a number of topics mentioning black screen when starting x on 3.10 kernel, and also a thread for the system dying. Reading some of the threads there may help you keep up to date on whether or not the issue seem to be solved.

  • Droid turbo unable to send or recieve text messages over wifi

    all of a sudden this past week I have not been able to send text messages over wifi, has not been a problem in the past with any phone I have had. Anyone else having this problem, I have a 64g and 32g in the house and both have the same problem sometimes a reboot works but only for a few minutes if at all. I then have to turn off wifi and reboot the phone to send text or I have to actually type the text again and send. very annoying.

        Hellboy,
    That's a very annoying issue indeed! We'll help figure out why this is happening and how to fix it for you. I was wondering about a few things. Are you using the messaging app that came preinstalled on the phone or one that was downloaded from the PlayStore? If it was downloaded, which app are you using? Also, does this primarily happen with longer text messages or messages containing pictures? Receiving texts is working just fine, right?

  • I cannot send and recieve text messages to a straight talk phone

    When i  send a text message to a phone on straight talk, i get the error that "it is not registered with iMessage". I can communicate with this phone with my iPhone with no problem. how do i register? and why? My iPad is only using Wifi and has no cellular service, but communicates great with an iphone.

    The iPad doesn't do SMS text messges which are necessary to send messges to a regular phone.

  • Why can't I send or recieve text messages?

    So about a month ago I dropped my phone in the snow and to replace it I had a really old flip phone. Once I activated that phone, I received a flurry of messages, like you usually would if you turned your phone off and several people texted you. Though, once I tried sending one, the message would fail to send and would say that there was no signal. After that, I couldn't receive messages either. I could, however, call and receive phone calls.
         I called customer support and they said that I should try bringing it in or it might be due to the age of the phone. So I got a hold of an LG Cosmos and activated it, however with the same problem: can make and receive phone calls but no texts. Any help?

        RedKoiFish,
    Here to help get those messages flowing again! Was your previous device an iPhone? If so, are users being sent messages iPhone users? Zip code? Has the previous device been powered down?

  • Cant send or recieve text messages with ichat

    when i use my aim account to chat, i can open a chat window with a buddy but when i do i get the "typing" symbol. it looks like i am typing but im not doing anything. when i actually do send a message, my friends can receive them but the window doesnt show that i sent anything, it just looks like i am typing. my friends respond but nothing changes on my screen, just the same old typing symbol for me. any one know whats going on?

    Hi Ralph,
    it is basically the same with parallels or vmware.
    Host-Only:
    Means taht you communicate only with your mac on a special independent interface (this has nothing to do with your macs ethernet or airport IP / Interface) The VM can not see the Internet then. Only your Host...
    NAT:
    Advantage: No need to reconfigure the VM when changing the Network or switching from Airport to Ethernet.
    Disadvantage: Shares the Macs IP (but i dont see if this is really a problem ;))
    bridged:
    Advantage: direct access to the 'external' network via the same Interface as the host. VM has its own IP
    Disadvantage: need to reconfigure the machine when switching networks
    Hope this clarified things.
    I still do not see why parallels in NAT mode should be a problem with iChat.
    Is there a known problem? I really would try if this problem also exists with vmware
    Regards,
    somi
