Why won't Verizon iPhone send iMessage when on call and Wifi?

I am new to Verizon and am aware of the simultaneous voice and data limitation, however I was under the impression that wifi would work normally while on a phone call, and it does.
However I am finding that when on a phone call, and successfully on wifi, iMessages do not get sent. They fail.
Anyone else get this? Can you please test it?
I have a iphoen 5 on 6.0.1 already BTW but have no idea if it happened before with 6.0.

He is correct. All data is in one giant pool once you are on Wifi. The prioritization is first come first serve, unless the phone is implementing some sort of QoS at the packet level, which is very unlikely. This is the same way a full computer works, everyone sends their data broken up into small packets (Each packet is ~1k in size at maximum.)  All of those packets just go into a queue in the order they were sent, and the modem handles sending them out.
The question is if iMessage is really going over the standard data routing, or if they are still using some sort of SMS wrapper. If its just data, it shoud send/recieve without issue regardless of what other data applications are running.

  • Why won't my iPhone send messages to another non-iPone?

    My iPhone will send A text message to another iPhone, but fails when a message is sent to any non-iPhone. Help?

    Check Settings>Messages, turn Send As SMS to On.  If it's already on you may want to check with your carrier to be sure that your messaging plan is properly provisioned.

  • Why won't my IPhone wake up to answer calls

    I have tried every combination in the settings menu to make it the phone wake up when an incoming call comes in, but it will not work. The only way I can get it to work is if I set the autolock to "never". If the autolock feature is set to any of the other delays it will not wake up. Also if i push the sleep/wake button on the top of the phone to put it in sleep mode, it will not wake up when a call comes in? Any suggestions out there?

    I've had the same problem, but seem to have found a fix. I have the 8GB model running software version 1.0.2. I have not validated the fix beyond a few minutes, so it would be helpful for others to try this out.
    I erased and reset the iPhone, then cradled and restored from the last backup. That in itself didn't seem to do the trick, so I cradled the iPhone again and tried putting it to sleep and calling it then. It woke up just fine when it was in the cradle. I removed the iPhone from the cradle and tried putting it to sleep and calling it again. It worked.
    Not sure how long the fix will last, or if it's really even a "fix." If this works for anyone else, it would be good to know.

  • Why won't my mac highlight items when I click and drag?

    Has anyone had their mac suddenly stop highlighting?  When I click and drag it does not highlight.

    Take the case off... does the screen turn off like it is designed to do when the device is near your face? 
    If it does, the case is the problem.
    If it does not, then the sensor may be faulty, restore the device as new and try again.

  • Why won't my favicon show up when the code and the favicon.ico file are correct? I am using Dreamweaver CC.

    I have tried numerous .ico file makers and am using the code <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> in the <head> section and the favicon.ico sits above the index file, but it is not showing up on the tab in Firefox or IE. I have also tried numerous designs, as I thought that might be the problem -- here are a couple and . What am I doing wrong? I have tried everything and Googled everything. I also use PC, but I hope that doesn't stop the Mac users from helping me.

    Thank you Jon. As I mentioned to Nancy, the Favicon finally showed up this morning. But also thank you for another time saving piece of advice that saved me a lot of time and effort and is not mentioned anywhere. You are so right, "There's really no reason to add the code in the <head> if the favicon.ico is in your site root. Simply placing it there will do the trick in all browsers." I only put the code on my index page because I wasn't sure it would ever show up, and lo and behold, when it finally did this morning, it did on all pages and they had no code.
    It is unfortunate that on all the websites (and I read what felt like all of them) dealing with Favicons, no one mentions these points. It's simple
    create the 16px by 16px favicon.ico
    Place it in the site root
    Empty your cache and bookmark the page
    Wait -- it will show up, possibly the next day.

  • Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

    Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

    Hi Ruth:
    Thanks for reaching out to me about this issue.
    This has been happening since I got the phone a couple of years ago.
    I did not realize that my home land line and my wife's cell phone
    always go straight to voice mail until my wife pointed it out to me
    several months ago.  Is there a setting I can adjust?
    Yes, I can make calls to our home land line and to her cell phone
    without being diverted to voice mail.
    Any advice you might have would be most welcome.
    Thanks.

  • Why won't my iphone 6 64gb phone or my iphone 5 ever get 3g or 4g?  It always only shows LTE

    Why won't my iphone 6 64gb phone or my iphone 5 ever get 3g or 4g?  It always shows LTE instead of 4g.  I will be sitting next to someone with the same phone and service and they have 4g and I have LTE.

    Yup, you want LTE all the time.   As Loquat  stated, LTE = 4G
    when you are sitting next to someone and the phone says 4G, it is a ATT or T mobile connection.  They have fake or faux 4G that is a step down from LTE.  It really is 3G+ but they came up with the fake 4G.  This is why Verizon put LTE to indicate it is real 4G technology, not hype.

    why won't Verizon return a phone to a customer if it was damaged during returned shipping BUT will charge you for it  $300   ....
    I would like the phone back and repair it...
    they lie say they cant... when they actually can... it is just a policy they have that says CANT.... 

    Standard operating procedures.  All about the Benjamins baby. Don't send a damaged phone for warrant claim if that's what happened file an ins. Claim or have it repaired.
