Not being able to send or recieve messages

I own a galaxy s5 and the past few days I havent been able to send or recieve messages. When I try to send messages it gives me the message not sent notification. I can still call people and data is still working its just text messaging that isnt working. Ive looked at numerous discussions and have done everything theyve suggested but to no luck. If anyone can give me suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

    jamjacov99 Being able to send and receive text is very important. Are you using the stock text app or a 3rd party text app such as handscent emojis,hangouts, ect? Also, we understnad that others have tried steps but please let us know exactly what has been tried becausewe can only see what you post here. If you haven't done so already, go into settings, app manager, all apps, text messaging, and clear data, clear cache, and force stop. Then retest.

    I just wrote about not being able to send messages on my IPad.Someone wrote back,thanks,about going to settings,outgoing mail etc. and I did that.Now I have no sent mail category.Help.

    When you reset the password, you need to enter the password into the outgoing server setting again. I have reset my email passwords a couple of times and I had to enter the password into the outgoing server setting before I could send mail again.
    Did you try that? If you did try it, did you try sending an email? You can send yourself an email to test it.

  • Some texts not being able to send with iPhone 6 Plus 8.1

    I recently upgraded my iPhone 5 to the new iPhone 6 Plus. Since then, I have noticed some issues with iMessage. I have not had this problem with any of my other iPhones in the past. I am now experiencing problems when I text certain people I get an exclamation mark with a message saying that the message was not delivered. How do I fix this? This happens with a handful of contacts. Others go through just like normal with no problem. My iPhone 6 Plus is updated to the latest software.

    Mostly SMS. I had tried sending an employee an imessage earlier and it didn't go through, but he later replied and said that his phone was off during work. Others are SMS messages to non Apple devices that are not being able to send.

  • Not being able to send iMessage to PHONE NUMBER, but able to send iMessage to E-MAIL ADDRESS

    My sister's iPhone's iMessage setting "You can be reached for messages at" is set to her PHONE NUMBER and her APPLE ID e-mail ADDRESS. When I send a text message to her APPLE ID e-mail ADDRESS it goes as an iMessage and she receives an iMessage. However, when I send a text message to her PHONE NUMBER it goes as a TEXT message from my phone but is received as an iMessage on her end. She is able to send an iMessage when she sends a text message to my phone number.
    Why is the text message to her PHONE NUMBER not going as an iMessage?

    So far, I must say iMessage has not been very reliable.  It has taken much longer time to send out or receive iMessages because it has to go through Apple server to relay the message.  It also does not keep the message at server to relay at a later time if the recipient is not on 3G data or wifi.
    If you go to your iPhone setting, under Messages, you will find that "Send As SMS" is turned on by default, meaning at any time if iMessage server is busy or has difficulty in relaying the message over to the recipient., your message will automatically be changed to regular SMS.  If you want to avoid that, you have to turn off "Send As SMS".  But by doing that, you may sometimes find messages not being delivered.

  • Not being able to send picture text through iphone 3gs

    I just got an iphone 3gs a couple weeks ago. i had the current updates installed and everything, my itunes says its up-to-date. However, when i try to send a picture, it won't let me send it to a cell phone number. And i noticed on my friends iphone (which is not a 3g) but has the current operating system he has this little button camera next to the box where you can type your message text. Howcome mine doesn't have this? i really dont want to go to an AT&t store so can someone help me pleeeease? thanks.

  • Does any1 hav issues with not being able to send pic from the camera roll. I've already had issues with over exposure that the new update fixed but it left me with this issue.

    Since getting my iPhone 5 I've had camera issues. To start with it was over exposure, the camera was flashing too early and leaving me with dark pictures. After a failed reset I visited the apple store, where they told me it was a known problem and apple were working on a update to fix the issue and it was just a
    waiting game. Once the update was available I did it immediately and the problem seemed to be fixed. I've now noticed that from the camera roll I carnt send a picture to mms. It gives me the option but the screen completely freezes after I've chosen it. The only way to access my camera roll again is to completely close the camera roll down and reopen it. The strange thing it it will let me send it as an email and upload taught to Facebook etc just not as an mms. The other strange thing is if I go to msgs and add a photo I'm successful but if I try to edit the photo I want to send 1st then I get the same issue as the camera roll. I also have issues with the shutter taking ages to open. Is anyone else havin these issue before I go back to the apple shop. A complete reset hasn't worked

    Photo Stream only handles images and your videos are not uploaded or shared with other devices.
    Use iPhoto to import from your device. It can bring in the videos and image files.

  • My iPhone 4S with iOS7 has stopped sending mail.  I have deleted the account (Exchange) and readded it to no avail.  Not being able to send mail is detrimental to me.

    I have read the tips and all I can find is to delete the account and readd.  I have done so to no avail.  What are the other alternatives to solve this problem?  Thanks.

    Yes all the account settings were approved.  I can receive email just fine.  My contacts and calendar are up to date.  I just can't send.  The email disappears.  It's not in the outbox or sent items.  It's hosted exchange and works fine on my other devices.  Server names is exch2010.esfi.net hosted by Electronic Storefronts.
    That sounds like a server side problem. Contact the Exchange account administrator.

  • Not receiving or able to send any text messages

    I have only had my phone for a month and about a week ago I stopped being able to send or recieved any text messages.  When I view my bill with AT&T it shows that I have sent and recieved them but I have not.  Any suggestions of how to resolve this?

  • I have not been able to send email for some time but now i have stopped being able to recieve email.

    i have not been able to send emails for some time but in the last two days ive stopped being able to receive, the message says 'username or password incorrect' ive checked all the settings, ive deleated accout and set up again, ive rebooted phone. i tried to sync with pc but this also fails any ideas

    That is correct, They don't seem to know about Mac, never got a single scrap of help from  them.  Try recreating your account from scratch, delete the account, (write down all your settings first) and add an account, see if that works, and if it does, delete the first account to prevent things doubling up on you.  I think that's what I did, it was quite a while ago.  Hope this helps, or gets you pointed in the right direction.  Maybe go to At&t and try creating another account, and if ti works, delete the first.
    One other tihing I did was to reset Safari, as AT&T uses the net, that's about all I can remember, like I said it was awhile ago.

    I have been researching the exchange message loss  problem on other forums, but not seen a link to browser as yet.  The message loss problem we have here is in a 32bit PB.

    You have now exceeded your iCloud storage, including an additional amount provided to allow you to continue receiving email. As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage. I have 20GB remaining.  WHat is the issue here?

    Today I received the same message but have 4.6gb available from a total of 5.0gb. I also received the same message when i first set up my icloud account and icloud was virtually empty. Unfortunately the only way i can see to contact apple is to pay for a telephone call. If anyone knows what is going on i would appreciate knowing.

  • I am not able to send/receive text message on my N...

    Hello:
    I bought a Nokia 5800 in India last summer. I used a local SIM card (Airtel) when I was there. I was able to send/receive text messages when I was in India.
    I came back to Chicago and replaced the Airtel SIM card on my 5800 with my AT&T sim card. I have a pay-as-you-go service with AT&T. I had used a Sony-Ericsson Z300a phone with my AT&T service before I bought my 5800. I did not have any problems sending/receiving text messages with the Sony-Ericsson phone using my AT&T SIM card.
    I don't have any problems using my 5800 with my AT&T SIM card for calling or sending/receiving multimedia messages. I just cannot send or receive any text messages. I have checked the message center number setting on my 5800 and it appears to be correct. I have also done a hardware reset of the 5800 and the problem remains.
    Any clues?

    Hello parsar. Even if you have the correct Message Center number there, it's worth a try to delete the existing one and enter the correct one afresh. Make sure you have the latest firmware on your phone, and that there are no applications that may interfere with sending/receiving sms, like some filtering software.
    Hope this helps
    And, pakiboy, resetting to factory settings (by typing *#7780#) will NOT delete anything in the phone memory.
