Hi,
After transferring my sim card from an iphone to an android phone, i did not receive any sms coming from iphones (while I received those from android or windows phones).
I read that this was due du Imessages format (when a messsage is sent between two iphones). It appears that my phone nb was considered by the emetting phone as an Iphone nb. This is confirmed by the fact that the color message on the emitting Iphone was blue (it should have been green if sent to a non apple phone).
Then, I went to the Apple web site (https://selfsolve.apple.com/deregister-imessage ) to deregister my phone nb. After I followed the procedure, I received a confirmation message indicating that my number had been deregistred ; but even after restarting my phone, I still cannot receive text messages from Iphones.
Does anyone have an idea of what I could do to fix the problem ???
Many thanks in advance.
Bruno
Hi !
If you`re trying to receive messages from an Iphone and the sender is using the Imessage service then that`s an Apple interconnectivity and I guess it doesn`t work , both shold be on imessage
Try to contact Apple support , they may have blacklisted your number
Some workaround here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1752978
As a last resort you can ask here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2259645
Good luck !

my phone keeps sending texts to my mate even though I didn't send them any ideas how to stop this
i don't think that was your hd2 fault (sender)...usually the symptom comes from the receiver...
Does it keep resending the last text message ? my n95 did that once
yeah sent my mate the same txt 7 times over 3 days .
Call your Phone Company and ask them.
Is it a textmessage with an IMEI code or just a simple textmessage?
I was reading about Verizon working on simultaneous voice and data technology in preparation for the iPhone. Would that also allow us to send and receive text messages at the same time (instead of sent messages stalling and failing when receiving one)? This has always bugged me when texting multiple people.

I have had verizon for 10 years and never had an issue with this on multiple platforms (BlackBerry, Android) and am not sure if this is an issue with the iPhone? Verizons network has been pretty solid with handling messages for me.
Hope this answer helpful

I have only ever had Verizon, and this happened to me on countless "dumbphones", Blackberry, Windows Mobile, and now Android. A message will just say sending for a lengthy amount of time, then fail, immediately followed by a received message. Surely someone knows what I'm talking about, or I've had the worst luck ever lol.
I am very new to Android coming from Palm Pre and I purchased Droid Pro and activated it with Page Plus everything seems to work fine except I can't receive or can't send any plain text messages any kind. I haven't been able to receive or send any ever since I got this activated. I have tried everything I could.
I did activation multiple times and still no luck! I am very frustrated at this point and don't know what to do. I really love this phone and it works great including web data, calls but the stupid text messages will not work at all.
As soon as I send a text message I get an instant error message saying text message not sent and it does that for every message. This is just driving me insane since I text more than I talk.
I am getting close to my last resort is the reset this phone to factory which I don't know how to do. My brother uses Droid 2 Global and Fascinate on Page Plus Wireless with no problems. I tried calling multiple sources and no one is willing to help me.
Please help me if you can.
Anybody here know what I can do? I am so frustrated. I know I am missing text messages right now. I hate to go back to Palm... and this is the only Android phone from Verizon that I like so far. I love the keyboard but without being able to send or receive text messages this thing would be worthless for me. I text more than I talk.
This are just random guesses, but i thought i would try:
- wrong sms format (UTF-8?)
- wrong number/address for sms central in settings?
Fixed!!!
After days of fighting with it I got it figured out by process of elimination. For Page Plus Wireless under "Wireless & Network Settings" > "Mobile Networks" > "Network Mode" - needs to be set to "GLOBAL" and not "CDMA" like I thought and after this all my text messages are working properly.
This may be useful to someone later on.
Now if I can get rid of all the bloatware that this Droid Pro came with without rooting I would be very excited. I love this phone so far even though I am missing the true multi-tasking but I am sure I will get used to. I am already getting used to Android and it's only been a few days
Root it and change build.prop
change in system/build.prop
ro.telephony.gsm-routes-us-smsc = 0
This will solve sms problems

Hi
Today I have a meeting with somebody that he claimed that can hack my Lumia 930 windows phone 8.1 update with just simple SMS. so I want him to do it, he send me a simple SMS and after opening SMS on my phone, he called with her phone to my friend phone, but amazing in my friend phone we saw my phone number instead of her number. I thinks this is a big hole on Windows Phone.
SMS he send me is this :
%D9%81%D9%88%D9%86%D8%AA%20%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%B3%DB//1
the scenario is this :
A send a Text message to B
B Open text (and there isn't any send Text message from B to A or any visible )
A then Call C and we saw B phone number in C instead of A
and I think this is a big problem. please help me what happened on my cell phone
Best Regards
Somehow my wife's phone number is stuck in a group with my sister's phone number, and I cannot get them separated.
Got a new Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus about 2 weeks ago, and restored all my existing data to it (including several years worth of text messages) from my old Galaxy S7.
All was great for about a week, I was sending & receiving text messages from numerous people - including my wife and sister - just fine.
Then, I THINK what happened was that on a text to either my sister or my wife, I added the other one of them to the message as an additional recipient, and I think that's when this issue started.
Now, whenever I receive a text from my wife, the message appears in my phone with my sister's number included in the sender field along with my wife's name as if it is a group message.
What's even MORE strange, when another person sends a text to me and to my wife (but NOT to my sister) - my sister's name appears in my phone as if she is in a group that sent me the message - even though the person who sent me the message doesn't even KNOW my sister!
Here is a step by step scenario:
1) My wife composes a text message on her phone TO ME ONLY (my number is the ONLY one shown on her phone as the intended recipient of the text).
2) She sends it to me, when I receive it on MY phone, the "sender" area at top of message shows TWO people - my wife and my sister. (My sister does NOT receive the message.)
3) If I reply directly to that message, both my wife and my sister get my reply.
4) If I compose a NEW message to my wife only (rather than replying to one she sent me), and send to her, only she receives it (my sister does not receive it), and on my wife's phone it shows as coming from only me.
5) When my wife replies to the message I sent to her only, on my phone it comes back as a group message with my sister
s name included in the group.
I have scoured my phone for text messaging Groups... I can find none set up. I primarily use Handcent NEXT SMS, but have also used the stock Messaging app in the Samsung phone, as well as Verizon Message+... same behavior in all of them!!
On my phone I deleted the entire thread of messages between me & my wife (over 1,200 messages going back couple of years), and also deleted all threads on my phone between me & my sister, deleted both my wife's and my sister's contact records in my phone, and also deleted all the forementioned from my WIFE'S phone, then also deleted my wife and my sister's contact records from the contacts in my Google account (to prevent them from being inadvertently restored to my phone that way), and restarted my phone NUMEROUS times during all this... then we start a new text thread between me & my wife only, and when it hits my phone it STILL shows as coming from a Group containing my wife and my sister.
THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!!
I hope to be able to remedy this without doing a factory reset on my new S9+ as it's a RPITA to reload everything (all my data primarily), AND I'm not really convinced that will solve the problem anyway (wondering if the "group" they are stuck in together is in Verizon's mothership (cloud database, etc).
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!!!!!
