Unable to send or receive text from another iphone after updating ver 7.02

Before updating ver 7.02 I was able to send and receive text to any cell phone. After updating to ver 7.02 can no longer send nor receive any text from any iphone 4 or iphone 5. Can send and receive to/from an old iphone 3 and to any non-iphone but not iphone 4 or 5. Tried updating iTunes then restore phone from backup, no change. Deleted apps that were no longer being used and transferred all my pictures on phone to a folder on computer then deleted then out of iTunes. Tried restoring again, once again no change.
  Not having any idea what else to try, went to AT&T store for help. Pretty much got a shrug of the shoulders with the response of yep, a lot of texting problems after 7.02 update. No help at all.
Anybody else have or had this issue? If yes,  what did you find causing the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response. I tried so many things forgot to list that I did try turning off iMessage, reset network and turned network back on- no change. Also forgot to mention it's my wife's phone, I'm more old school. If I need to talk to somebody, I just call since I already have a phone in my hand. That's my solution to the problem but she doesn't think so. LOL. Also tried hard restarting several times, didn't make any difference. I am still fiddling around with it, if I come up with anything I will post it.
Thanks again for the help.

    is it free to send and receive texts from another EE customer who is abroad?

    Hi 
    Welcome to the EE Community! Provided you're texting an 07 number, it won't cost you anything extra to text someone abraod (provided that's included in your package). It will cost the person abroad to reply (but not receive texts), unless again they have some sort of add on in the country they're present in. Cheers,

    I cannot receive texts from one contact after updating to the iOS7 system - why?

    amyhs, thanks for those details. This is certainly quite odd that this has been going on so long and we definitely want to get to the bottom of this. Now, you stated that you have reached out to technical support and spoke with a tier two technical support representative. At this time, what actions or troubleshooting steps were taken? Are you aware if a ticket with our network technicians was ever created? As well, have you ever previously had an iPhone and are you aware if the users that are unable to message you are using iMessage?

  • New Iphone can't send or receive texts from non-Iphone contacts

    Okay Verizon, you finally convinced me to get a smartphone so I can text, etc. Now I find that only other Iphone users  can get my text messages. This is very annoying. My family members are Verizon and other carriers, Iphone and Droid users but I find that only some can receive or send me messages. What is up with this?

    That is because you are not sending texts, but iMessages. iMessage is an Apple proprietary messaging system which DOES NOT utilize SMS, but instead chooses to send messages counted against your data allowance. iMessage is ALSO only available to Apple phones.
    Go into your settings > messages > make sure that the box is checked to send as SMS if iMessage is not available is checked. This way, when your iPhone cannot send an iMessage to a contact, it will send an SMS.
    Personally, I think you should completely disable iMessage and only send SMS messages. With Verizon, most plans now include unlimited texting and an allowance for data. If you use iMessage, these messages will count against your data allowance where these same messages sent as SMS would not since you most likely have unlimited texting on your account.
    Good luck.

  • I can't send or receive text from non-Iphone

    This just started happening last week.

        That's definitely strange, bigbadscharfy. We're here to help get all texts coming and going. Let's start w/ the basics! Have you checked under Settings>Messages> Is Send as SMS checked on? This can help send out messages as regular texts and not iMessages. Do you receive any error messages when the texts dont go out or receive?

  • Can I send and receive texts from my iphone 4?

     I updated my Touchpad to webOS 3.0.4 and was able to sync my Touchpad and iphone 4 via bluetooth. I was able to set up the telephone calling part of the tether. What I am trying now to do is making the touchpad compatible with the phone for texting. I have read that it can now be done but nowhere can I find HOW to do it. Is it possible? If so, what do I need to do?
    Thanks,
    Joe
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    The answer is no, but not because of anything to do with the webOS. This feature uses a brand-new Bluetooth profile called MAP (Messaging Access Profile) and many devices have not implemented support for it yet. I took a quick look on the Apple support pages and found this article that lists the supported Bluetooth profiles. As you can see, MAP is not listed which means syncing SMS messages will not work on your iPhone.

  • Unable to send or receive texts and calls

    For nearly two weeks I've been unable to send or receive texts and calls I have tried resetting my phone deleting existing call / text convos and taking the sim out of my phone 4g internet still works but nothing else I'm using an iPhone 6. Why can't I send or receive anything?

    Hi ,
    Very sorry this is happening,
    Have you tried the SIM in a different phone?
    Also have you tried a network reset?
    Note: Resetting the network settings will clear all WiFi passwords and refresh device network connections.
    From the home screen, tap Settings.
    Scroll down to, then tap General.
    Scroll down to, then tap Reset.
    Tap Reset Network Settings.
    Tap Reset Network Settings to confirm.
    Note: If a security code is enabled, this will need to be entered between steps 4 and 5.
    Thanks.

  • Unable to send or receive texts, talk to text not working, unable to talk to Siri. Two days now. Is it the phone? Is it the network? Do I really have to go dig out my old Blackberry to send a text after buying a $400 phone?

    For the past couple days I have been unable to send or receive texts, can't use voice to text, can't talk to Siri.
    Three reasons I have the phone.
    $400 for a new paperweight. Just what I needed for Xmas!

        We certainly don't want to lose you as a customer megarga! Let's partner together and get your wireless concerns addressed. When you received the iPhone, did you set it up as new or restored from a previously owned iPhone/Apple ID? What model iPhone do you have? If you have restored from a previous iPhone then how much available device memory do you have? As you share the details then we can customize a solution for you.
    Thank you…

  • HT3529 Since I updated to ios7 I cannot receive pictures on a text from another iPhone

    Since updating to the ios7 I can't receive picture on a text from another iPhone any thoughts.  It says it's downloading but never does

    I'm having the same problem. I have an iPhone 5 and am running iOS 7.
    MMS is on, and I can send pictures successfully. But when I receive them, the photo shows up for a split second before it becomes a downloading icon which never changes.
    Can anyone help?

  • Unable to send or receive text messages

    I just activated my Droid Razr and I'm unable to send or receive text messages.  Sending and receiving phone calls and emails works fine.  Any ideas?

        Thanks to the community for your contributions.
    Hello Tim952,
    I use text messages on a daily basis to keep in touch with friends and family so I understand how important it is to get this resolved. How long have you had this issue? What zip code are you located in? Do you receive an error when sending a message? Are you using a third party messaging application? If so, please remove and retry with the stock messaging application. Please share additional details so I can better assist.

  • Unable to send or receive text messages after updating iOS to 7.0.2

    I am unable to send or receive text messages aftering updating to iOS 7.02. I have an iPhone 4S. I have run all the suggested troubleshooting still can't text. I have been to my carrier, AT&T, there is no issue with my account. AT&T suggested resetting the phone to factory defaults (thereby wiping it clean). I am trying to avoid that as I had issues with transferring data & contacts before. Any one have a work around?

    Try this iMessage workaround
    Look for a fix by Apple by the end of the week.....

  • Do you need to be constantly connected to wifi or 3G to receive texts from another apple user using iMessage?

    Do you need to be constantly connected to wifi or 3G to receive texts from another apple phone user who is using iMessage?

    No.
    Much as a missed call while not connected goes to voicemail, a missed text or iMessage while not connected will wait until you are connected, then be delivered.
    There is one exception, however.  Many cellular carriers do not support iMessage.  So if you are connected by cellular signal and not WiFi, you will receive the message as an SMS text message using your cellular carrier.
