Upgraded to new samsung galaxy s4 from a I phone 4 and I can't receive text messages from anyone with an I phone.

I upgraded to a new Samsung Galaxy S 4 from an IPhone 4 and I can't get text messages from anyone who has an IPhone.

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 can't receive text messages from a specific person

So my aunt has verizon. She has an iPhone. And I have the note 3. Every time she texts me it says not delivered and I can't receive text messages from her. I don't have her blocked and this only happens between me and her. I can text all other contacts just fine. Please help.

Hello railenemarie16, let's solve this mystery together! Have you tried deleting your contact from her device and then re-adding? Also, have her send you a message manually instead of from the saved contact. Did you have an iPhone previously before the Note 3 and used iMessage? Keep us posted!

I CAN NOT RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE USING IMESSAGE

On an iPhone your iMessages will go to your phone number.
You can select another email to use on iPod or iPad.
Go to settings
Messages
Send and receive
Check your phone number and uncheck the common Apple ID you share so your messages will not go to other devices.

I can't receive text messages from a second iPhone on my account?

I can't receive text messages from a second iPhone on my account? I was told by AT&T to disable iMessage. Now the second iPhone on my account doesn't receive my text messages. Never had this problem before the last ISO update. Help!!

So listen to them.
Disable iMessage. reset network settings. Enable iMessage again.

Can you receive text messages from a blocked or private number on iPhone 4

I can call out but all incoming calls are going directly to VM with no signal that I missed a call or have VM. I can send/receive text messages from other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users, I am assuming this is really "iMessage." Is it apple software?

I have spent hours on the phone with Apple and AT&T. I went thought reset, on/off, etc, etc with both companies to no avail. Each company pointed fingers at the other....as being the source of the problem.
Problems: Suddenly ALL incoming calls were going directly to VM with no signal I missed calls and/or had VM. I was also unable to receive all Text Messages...Oddly, I could send text messages to anyone (even non-apple users but I could not receive their responses)........then I when I got home I started receiving text messages from other apples users ONLY. I assume now - iMessage kicked in and I could text (send/receive) other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users ONLY. ....yes, I could still (send) text messages to my husband's blackberry (he received my messages fine) but my phone would NOT receive his text respones.
Finally, I googled the problem and found this community where other people have had the exact same problems! One person said he "turned off 3 G" which was the solution for him....so I did the same and VIOLA! My problem solved! Nevermind the fact that I pay for 3G and cannot use it....so here's my question, if 3G is the problem on my phone is this an APPLE issue or a NETWORK problem? Do I purchase a new phone and slip in my same SIM card and hope the same does not occur or do I get a whole new SIM card and phone? What is the long term resolution to this problem?
I am happy however to find that my problem is NOT an isolated incident and wish Apple or AT&T had told me this is not so uncommon because I thought (based on the baffled response from Apple) that this has never occurred before. Where is Steve Jobs when we need him?

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

Can't receive text messages from other iphone users but can receive them from non-iphone users

I had to recently reinstall mavericks to my MacBook and suddenly I haven't been able to receive text messages from iphone users on my iphone. I can send them but not receive them. Recently I was able to receive a text from an iphone user who turned off his imessages before he texted me. That came through. Of course, this would be difficult to ask every iphone user i know to turn off imessages in order text me. I've also tried to turn off my imessage on my macbook, iphone and ipad and still can't receive them. Lastly, I've also tried resetting my networking settings and that didn't help either. Any suggestions???

I am having the same problem minus the fact that I don't have a Mac computer I just can't receive any messages from iPhone users and I can't turn my iMessage back on at all it keeps just turning it off every time I try to turn it on. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can't receive text messages from random people

Hello,
I'm in desperate need of help. My galaxy note 2 is now refurbished with a new sim card and completely reset. I still cannot get text messages from some people. I used to get it but then updated a few months back with this new update that came out and since then it hasn't worked. I don't know what to do. Please help with ideas. Here is what I have tried.
Tried new sim card 3 times.
New phone.
Installed sms fixing apps.
Installed third party apps:handcent, gosms, voxer (only one that works because it uses internet)
I don't know what else to do. This is getting very annoying.

Did it sync to your Google account or Facebook account for contacts after the new update? Check the contacts that are having the texting issue - be sure the number stored for them is only the 10-digit number, area code included but with no leading "1".
Can you text them? Can they reply to a text you send? Are they using your full 10-digit number to text you? Perhaps both of you can delete each other as a contact and then start over - send them a text, see if you receive their reply, and they can save you as a contact from that exchange.

I can't receive text messages from iphone users

For some reason I am unable to receive text messages form iphone users with my new LG G3 phone?

Hi Kessler,
Congrats on your new device! Text messages are an important feature, so lets get this fixed. Please make sure that your previous iPhone device is no longer registered http://bit.ly/1eec6Qc to receive iMessages. Once completed, please remove/add the sim card to your new device http://vz.to/1t3TnMR .
Thanks,

I can't receive text messages from only 1 contact

The past two days, I haven't been able to get the texts that were sent to me from only One Person. I tried the *228 number, and I also tried taking the battery out and resetting my phone. Someone please help me fix this ASAP!

The fact that this text messaging issue is isolated to only one contact indicates that your phone is able to send and receive text messages successfully on our network and the issue needs to be addressed by that particular contact and his/her wireless provider. Please have your friend contact his/her wireless provider for any text messaging issues on their end.

Can't receive text messages from Jersey in the U.K. Channel Islands

I switched from AT&T to Verizon earlier this year, and although the call quality and online service is better, I have noticed some deficiencies in the service that I would not have expected from the number 1 carrier.
In particular, I do a lot of business with Jersey, in the British Channel Islands. This is not to be confused with the state of New Jersey. Jersey is the largest offshore banking and fund administration center in the world, and is only less known than places like the Caymans because it runs a very clean and transparent operation. After switching to Verizon I discovered that I could send text messages to my client's in Jersey but they could not send text messages back. After numerous support calls I was eventually told that the problem with the Isle of Man was resolved. Duh! The Isle of Man is another U.K. offshore island but its not Jersey. On further discussion with the support group apparently the problem is a lack of partnership arrangement with Jersey Telecom (JT), the principal mobile supplier in Jersey. Verizon has arrangements with Cable and Wireless, and Airtel Vodafone in Jersey, but not JT. I don't know anybody in Jersey that uses C & W or Airtel, and I expect these services are not popular with the business community. I did speak to JT who confirmed the lack of an agreement and mentioned that they had agreements with AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile.
Frankly I'm surprised that Verizon, does not have an arrangement with JT, and yet a minor player like T-Mobile does. The support people didn't even seen to be bothered by this. It was a "we don't have a sharing contract with them, and you can check on our web site to confirm this". I would expect "I'm sorry for such an omission, we will be right on fixing it."
It has made me question whether Verizon is a serious business service or more of a consumer orientated service.
I surely can't be the only Verizon client that needs to receive texts from Jersey!
Please don't make me switch back to AT&T.

No I understood your problem, it is just that the only time I would text with partners it generally is when I actually there, everything while absent from the area I generally use Voice and E-mail for a bit more harder record keeping.
For VZW the best option for negotiating a contract that I would definitely back and support would be a JT client side pro rata surcharge if it would be necessary. The direct cost to VZW is not what I am concern with, but the cost JT might want to throw onto VZW for a contract.
Now to the more fun question at hand... I love teaching economics and I have mulled over those numbers dealing with the banking and trust industries in the recent past, and you are absolutely correct Hong Kong could never count. Hong Kong facilitates oversight of a great deal of activities, but no one [with any sense] would ever open shop there to actually do this work. I do think however with CIMA's reforms with the 2Gen Basel regs. Cayman Islands have most definitely cleaned a great deal of their dirty work up & their antics [not to say it does not exist everywhere including Jersey, but...] and they stand to be the largest in terms of pure monetary figures. However, that cannot be said without acknowledging that some of the backing servs. comes from the 'traditional' offshore islands. [and I would have not clue exactly what the size of the place is vs. others]
