Galaxy S5 :: Can't Get Texts From IPhone Users
Apr 14, 2014
So I picked up my S5 Friday, upgraded from iPhone 4S. I traded in my iPhone for the phone, and reset my iPhone to factory settings before doing so. I love my new phone, but I can't get any texts from iPhone users. iPhone users get my texts, but I don't get any from them. I know this probably has to do with their phones still trying to send my number iMessages instead of texts. I don't have the box or anything from my iPhone to get the serial number from it.

I have the 4s and am on the Verizon network in northeast Ohio. My step-mom and sister that have iPhones can't text me, but my father and other sister who do not have iPhones can send to me. We are all on Verizon. I have had a number of friends with iPhones (likely on Verizon) tell me the same thing - that I don't get their messages. I can text all of them and they can respond to my texts, however if they are originated by the iPhone user on Verizon I will not receive.

4s will not send texts to non-4s users and it will only send texts to other iPhone users if iMessage is turned on, otherwise it doesn't send texts at all. How do I fix this?How did you remedy it?

How to Group message with iPhone users. I can send a group message two 2 iPhone users and they receive it but I never get their reply. I have had my galaxy for 8 days and I am going to return if I can't solve this. I really like this phone but I have to have group messaging. I have checked message settings under multimedia I have group messaging checked.

I had an iPhone 5 and dumped it to hop on the S6 train. However, I was receiving group messages from other iPhone users on iMessage prior. I disabled iMessage before I switched, had AT&T update the system and I still can't receive group messages and images from other iPhone users.

Okay so I just got this phone 2 days ago and everything works fine except this. I can't send or receive any photos from iPhone users. My number isn't being used with imessage and I can get photos from other people but anyone with an iPhone I can only send texts.

Just curious. Are most of you iPhone users also Mac users?
I'm a (new) iPhone user... but don't see myself switching from a PC anytime in the near future.

I recently bought the Samsung Galaxy S6. I am having issues with group messaging. I have a few group messages with people who all use iPhones. When I reply to the group, each person receives an individual message.

I switched from an iPhone to the S5 in mid december and have had issues with getting texts. I have read a lot about it, so I shut off iMessage on my mac and even disabled my number with iMessage on Apple's site. However, I am still not receiving some texts from iPhones. If they send a text just to me i get it fine (even though they may have to click send as a text message) but I won't be able to get it in a group text. It is frustrating because I can see some texts but not all of them. This has been happening for over a month now.

I know on the 3GS launch there were many first time 3G users that wanted to upgrade. Which I "thought" was pretty common practice after a year. Then they said ok. we'll give you a month or two for your eligibility date. Since I wasn't eligible till Dec.
figure i'll pre order and everything will be just fine. Got the reservation email for in store pickup, at about 6am. checked all day. was still good. Now this morning its no where to be found and not on the list at the apple store. F'n awesome. What could have caused all this snafu from yesterday and the overwhelming demand? Now those that had the 3G and couldn't upgrade last year essentially can't upgrade at launch thanks to all 3GS users and new users slamming the system. I understand their position though. They know they will lose the iphone in probably the next year. So try to get as many customers signed up and raise the ETF. Unless the verizon phone is LTE. the service isn't terrible here. Some of the policy's though, well i'm sure you all know the words by now.
Seems like those who got in on the 3G in the first month or so are in a black hole. I know at least I am. But really, my 3G works just fine. Its got the 5.08 boot loader on it so I can do whatever really and not have to worry about upgrading to whatever firmware comes out. I'm enjoying 4.0 with the wall papers and multi tasking. Even though I could those things over a year ago. I'm diving in for the screen and camera. And CPU and RAM of course.
Just felt like divulging my observations from yesterdays horrendous pre-order festivities.
My local store manager said he might be able to get me one, depending on how many they get, since he doesn't really know outside of the reserved ones of course.

I own an HTC One M8. I receive SMS messages fine from iPhone users. However, MMS messages will not download. Invariably, every person I've found while scouring Google that has this problem has previously owned an iPhone. I have not.I repeat - ***I have never owned an iPhone and have never used iMessage.***

So I'm trying to stick with the $15 a month data plan if I can, but I really want to try out the GPS functions on my new iPhone 4. For those of you that pay a lot of attention to data usage--how much data does GPS eat up if you're using something like the MapQuest GPS app?

Crossed over from an iphone 4s to an Lg G4 7 days ago. Love the phone but trying to group text between me and my iphone buddies is proving very difficult. I cant see their original responses in the group, instead only see individual responses. Initiating a group text results in only my buddies seeing only my response and no one else.
I've deregistered my phone number from apples website a couple days ago and even days earlier turned off imessaging on my old device but still get the same results. I downloaded and installed textra made it my default messaging app, turned on the group mms option still same thing. I've even told my friends to delete my contact information on their phones and wait for a group text from me; same result. What more can i do? I dont think telling them to turn off imessaging on their end is fair because all their text messages to other iphones will be sent not using imessage. What more can i do?
Could it be possible that the way my contacts are setup is screwing up my group messaging? Or is this strictly an ios glitch on apples side? How do you all go about setting up group texts and can you name a group text? My group name is always "3" standing for the 3 other recipients that i send the message to. Is there no way to rename this?

I just switched to the LG G3 from the iPhone 5, so did my husband. We regularly group message 2 iPhone users, so when we tried to start a new conversation, my husband can see all the messages but I can not. Sometimes I'll get a new text from "Anonymous" saying "message not found" and it seems like it happens when my husband messages the group. Why is it functioning properly for his phone, but not mine? This morning I got the same message from Anonymous and my husband did not text the group, so now I'm obviously missing out on messages!! This is so frustrating! I have iMessages turned off on my old iPhone, the iPhone users have group text and SMS turned on on their phones, they've reentered our contacts, we're using the stock messaging app on the LG. I don't know what to do. And it's totally inconvenient to ask all my iPhone using friends to text through WhatsApp or any other app.

I have some confusion about iMessage. I could send and receive most of messages from other iphone users. But, I cannot receive messages from my parent in China, who also uses iphone. However, he can successfully send and receive messages from other users as well. He can receive my message in text, while I cannot receive his messages.
