TS2755 unable to recieve texts from iphones

I switched from apple to android and now I cant recieve texts from iphones. I have unregistered number from apple and have turned off imessage. How do I fix this problem?

Sorry, that should have been done before you did the switch. Found this online. Hope it helps
Unfortunately, there isn't a list of steps you can perform on your own. Instead, you need to call 1-800-MY-APPLE in order to have Apple manually de-register your phone number from the Apple servers. In order to do this, make sure you have yourApple ID on hand as well as the phone number in question.
To expedite the process of your call, be sure to ask for technical support when calling in. Then just tell them you're switching to a smartphone that isn't an iPhone and you can't receive messages so you need them to manually unregister you from the iMessage servers.

  • Can't recieve texts from iphones after resetting iphone 4

    I had to reset my iphone 4 (ios 6) over the weekend. Now my phone won't recieve texts from iphones. It does recieve them from other devices. I think it may be an imessage problem since I can't reset that as I'm unable to recieve the necessary text! Any ideas?

    i had the same issue.  what worked for me, and hopefully for you, is that my iphone friends still had my number listed in their contacts as an iphone.  Once they changed it to just mobile i started getting their messages.  They also went into their messaging settings and checked the box that says to send a SMS message when imessage is unavailable.  i'm not sure if this is a universal setting or if it can be changed per contact.  i'm not sure which of the above did the trick, maybe the both in tandem, but i haven't had a problem since.  unfortunately, you won't know if there's a problem until you get an angry call from an iphone user whose texts you are "ignoring."  i hope this helps

  • Not recieving texts from Iphone users

    Just signed up with Verizon and got my new LG G2 but I'm unable to receive or send messages to IPhone users. I've already tried downloading the Verizon messages app and done a factory reset on my phone. Not sure what else to try here. I've never owned an IPhone so the deregister of Imessage does no good. Any Ideas??

    Is this your first cell phone ever? If not, were you able to receive texts from iPhone users on your previous cell phone(s)?
    Have you inquired with your contacts what color of bubble is around the text messages they are sending you? If it is blue, they are attempting to send it as an iMessage and think your phone is an iPhone. If it is green, they are attempting to send it as a text.
    As Snn5 has stated, there is a setting in iMessages which much be turned on to send messages as SMS/MMS if iMessage is unavailable. It is possible that this is not set such that a SMS/MMS can be sent.
    Do you not receive texts from ANY iPhones or do messages from some iPhones get thru?

  • Droid unable to receive text from iphone

    I have a Droid and am unable to receive texts from a contact with an AT&T iphone.  I can send this person texts and they go thru fine but I am unable to receive their texts.  Any known glitches?....solutions?  Thanks!!!

    Make sure you have DATA turned on when receiving texts from iPhone users. I often keep my data off to save battery, then cant open texts from iPhones. Turned data back on then was able to get them.

  • Switched ot andriod now cannot recieve text from iphones users what should i do

    i cannot recieve test from iphone users it still tries to send as a imessage from there phone even tho i no longer have iphone

    The problem may be that on the other users phones if your contact is associated with an email address that could have been used for iMessage, that that is what it's trying to send to.
    If that's not the case I'm not exactly sure.  They may also try erasing your contact and putting it back in their phone.  That way it would be a new contact unassociated with an iPhone.
    Other then that, you may cosult some Android forums...

  • I used to have an iphone 4 but recently switched to a galaxy but now cant recieve texts from iphone users

    i recently got a galaxy but used to have an iphone 4 but now i cant receive text messages from iphone users, the messages are still coming in as imessages.

    You can try resetting the password for the Apple ID you were using for iMessage by going to https://iforgot.apple.com/.  If that doesn't work, you'll have to contacct Apple support for assistance.

  • Can't recieve texts from iphones

    I have been having my Droid Ultra for about a month now and I just been notified from friends and family that I have not been receiving their text messages. They all also have iphones. I used to have an iphone with AT&T then switched to Verizon and got my Droid and also had all my contacts transferred over and I kept my same number. I figured out that for me to recieve their text, they have to turn off their imessage completely for me to be able to receive them. It does not automatically switch. They have even tried deleting my contact and re-adding it and still no luck. I don't know what else to try, can somebody help?

  • Swithed from an iPhone to a Droid and cannot recieve texts from iPhones

    My iPhone recently stopped working and I had to switch to my old Droid. Now I cannot receive iMessages to my Droid. How can I unregister myself as an iPhone user so I can get texts on my Droid. My old iPhone will not turn on so it will have to be done online.
    Thanks,
    Alyssa

    Go to your My Support Profile within Apple and delete your old iPhone from your profile.
    I think that should do it.
    Unfortunately, you are having this problem because you forgot to turn iMessage off on your iPhone prior to the switch. Apple is still having other iPhones send texts to your number to your number which is still registered within Apple. Since Apple prefers to utilize a proprietary system such as iMessage instead of a system which is open to all other phone platforms, this problem will CONTINUE to happen.
    Had you simply turned iMessage off on your iPhone prior to making the switch, you would not have this problem.
    Let us know how it turns out.

  • I just switched to a samsung galaxy s4 and now I can't recieve text from Iphones, why is this so?

    I have already unregistered the phone on apple but still nothing, any help? Thanks.

    Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
    They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

  • I switched from an iPhone to a Droid and can't receive texts from iPhones now, help?

    I switched from my iPhone 4s to a Droid and I do not have that phone anymore. I can not recieve texts from anyone with an iPhone and can not get in contact with my girlfriend or siblings now. I think their phones are trying to send their texts as iMessages to my phone that does not recieve iMessages. How can I just delete my Apple account and recieve texts again?

    Sounds like you didn't turn of iMessage on your iPhone before making the switch.  If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

  • Upgrade from iPhone 4 to Nokia Lumia 928; texts from iPhone contacts no longer coming through

    I just upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a Nokia Lumina 928 last week.  I was forced to make the upgrade because my iPhone's charging port broke (due to normal wear and tear), and could no longer be charged.  I was unable to acquire a replacement prior to the phone dying completely, and as such, I was unsuccessful in resetting the iPhone.
    I am unable to receive texts from any iPhone users, period.  We have tried deleting my number as a contact, resetting the SMS and iMessage settings, deleting my number and unregistering my device from iCloud and Apple, and I am still not receiving messages.  These are standard messages, without pictures.
    What is the solution?

    Your phone isn't the problem.
    Your contacts may be using iMessage, which can only be used with other Apple devices.
    Turning iMessage off resolves the problem.

  • Galaxy Nexus - not receiving texts from iPhone 4s

    This morning, my girlfriend sent me a text from her iPhone 4s, synced to my computer with her Apple account, on the same contract, to my Galaxy Nexus.  I kept getting texts from her, and every text I sent appeared to have sent, but she didn't get a single one from me after her first text this morning.  The messaging web app gives me a "failed" error with a delivery status of "319066302769."  Both phones have messaged each other fine since the day we signed the contract until today, and we've both been text messaging other people perfectly fine.  My phone number has never been associated with an activated iOS device on Verizon or any other carrier.  In fact, I've never owned an activated iOS device on any smartphone plan (except in college, I had a loaner iPod touch for iOS development, registered to my school email on a different computer, a loaner Macbook Pro).  Every thing I found on Google is the opposite, Android users unable to receive texts from iOS users.  Thanks for any help in advance

        Hi xg33kx,
    That is definitely an unusual situation. I'm sure it's frustrating that it isn't working when you need it. Do either of you have trouble with texting anyone else? Try turning off Wi-Fi on both devices, and see if the problem persists or continues when using only the mobile network. Please keep us updated with this situation so we can help to resolve!
    Thank you,

  • Not receiving texts from iPhone contacts when I'm not connected to wifi or cell data. I can't send and receive regular SMS texts with non iMessage users but iMessage users message are not being converted to text when I don't have internet connect

    I can send and receive to any non iPhone user. I can send a message as a text to an iPhone user but if I'm not connected to cellular data or wifi I do not receive messages from iPhone contacts. From what I understand these message should automatically send to me as texts instead of iMessages but since the update it's not functioning properly. Please help. I've tried turning iMessage off and I still don't receive the messages until after I reconnect to wifi.

    I have the same problem! Before the upgrade, if I wasn't connected to the internet, any messages sent to me from an iphone would convert automatically to a text message. I have payg tarriff, so I turn cell data off, as it costs too much to use it. I have wifi at home and work, but if I'm out and about, I don't receive texts from iphone users until I'm on wifi. I get them ok from non iphone users. There was never any problem until ios7
