I recently lost my iPhone 3GS, and I'm now using a 3G that I found on ebay. As it turns out, I can't receive iMessages from iPhones which I used to iMessage with. This means I can't receive texts at all from these numbers.

iPhone 3GS (8GB)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought iphone 6 plus 64G to upgrade from my iPhone 4S. I have not been able to send or receive iMessages to iPhone users in my contacts with my cell number. It always uses my email when I create a new iMessage and is able to send that way. I cannot receive iMessages from iPhones to my cell number. which is a huge problem. I have tried turning iMessages on and off and resetting my network and nothing seems to be working. How can I resolve the problem?

How can I Block BY DEFAULT everyone who is not on my contact list from sending me spam iMessages and FaceTime?Â
The problem is that my email address gives away that I have a Mac or an iOS device, and iMessage. I want to block all strangers, and I don't have the time or the will to block each spam phone number or email address.Â
Apple, if it not there already, implement a "From Contacts Only" Option for iMessage and FaceTime. Â

I had this problem at little while ago and it seemed to fix itself but now my iMessage has stopped working again, but only to my wifes iPhone. I'm not sure if it's related to the iOS update but i think it was working ok after that?I have a iPhone 4, she has a 3GS. They are both registered on the same apple ID I cannot send her iMessages but when she sends me texts (via iMessage) i receive them as messages but from my email address We are both in areas with 3G or wireless networks I have tried all of the suggestions that I have found on here and nothing is working on my phone!

Is there a way to recover old iMessages? Are these messages held in the network somewhere? If so, how easy is it to recover them? I need to look up some messages for a file of mine.

I've owned an iPhone 4 for the last 2 years, but have now upgraded to a different device.
I still have my old iPhone 4 in my possession, running 5.0.1. I have removed the micro-sim card from my iPhone and it is now in my new device (which is NON-apple).
To my horror, I text a friend (an iPhone user) from my new handset, only for my OLD iPhone to receive his reply! Obviously I was shocked, as my iMessages were set up by telephone number and NOT by my Apple-ID. I didn't understand this, as my phone number (SIM card) is no longer in my iPhone, it is in my new device.
Now having Googled this, I can see that this is something that is affecting a massive amount of people world wide. I cannot believe a company like Apple would allow this to happen, especially with the current world concern about privacy and security!!!
Anyhooo, my question is this: I have my old iPhone 4 in my possession. HOW DO I STOP iMessages going to my old handset?!When the device is erased, will the new owner still be able to set up iMessages as if it is a brand new handset?Once iMessages are prevented going to my old iPhone, will I start to receive messages from my friends as a normal SMS on my new phone (currently this is not the case, ALL texts go to my old iPhone which I ceased using a week ago. EVEN WITH iMESSAGES turned OFF, I still do not receive the message on my NEW device with the SIM card inserted in it)
I have read that removing the sim card, and cycling iMessages (Off then back On) before resetting/erasing. I don't want "maybe's" or "possiblys" in this case. My concern here is my privacy and protection of information that is only for me to see!
