IPhone 5s :: Receiving Text Messages From Unknown Number
Aug 26, 2014
I keep on receiving an empty text message or a text message with different characters (examples are the following: @PF, #, Q"_$ ...) from an unknown number. This happens every time I send a text message to anyone on my contact list. The unknown number keeps on getting longer with every text message I send. What should I do to make it stop?
Every once in a while I would get one SMS message from an unknown number which was spam. Today, for the last 4-5 hrs, I've been receiving numerous spam SMS msgs from 2 area codes in the Atlanta, GA area that are 3 different mobile numbers, and some of which are from the same repeating mobile number. Is there a way to block any spam text messages? I've just been deleting them, but didn't know if you can filter or block SMS msgs like you can with emails. I have a Blackberry Curve 8520 through AT&T
I keep getting texts from the following number 07800002015 it appears that this number is replacing the number the text was actually sent from. I am using vodaphone business account, anything i can do to stop this?
I keep receiving messages from a sender, Alice Rewe, on peer-to-peer. I don't know the sender and it sends me with links for some NEWS UPDATES or BREAKING NEWS onww.ipaidabribrenaija.com. How do I stop receiving messages from this unknown source??
I have recently had to block a number. I am continuing to receive messages from this number. I have the number blocked with Verizon and turned off iMessage, but it's not working.
Is there a way to restrict the number of text messages you can receive in a day from one person? There's someone I work with, I sent a text to them about something they did, and then I got bombarded by over 20 text messages which froze my messaging (on another phone, I just got an iPhone 4s). I can't totally end my relationship with this person, as they are good at their job. I just want to avoid another text message assault if possible.
My wife's HTC One doesn't seem to be sending text messages to her friend's iPhone 5. Both phones are with AT&T and I can confirm the friend has tried imessage on and off to no avail. My wife can text other iPhone's fine, but this particular one won't receive them.
I have an iphone 4s with th iOS 5.1.1 and, from a moment to another, I stoped receiving text messages! I send mine and my friends receive them, but I am not receiving theirs. I know it is not from the operator I am using (vodafone), because I just bought the iphone 4s some days ago and, until there, I was receiving messages perfectly.
I have an iPhone 4s and never had any problems but last night my iPhone stopped receiving text messages (from other iPhone users and other phone types). I messed around with my settings and my text messages started appearing again (although I can't remember what I pressed now)! I got a few people to send test text messages and I received these but again this evening I've stopped receiving text messages again.
I am having troubles receiving any green texts. My imessage activation comes on and off.When I do send as a green text it goes through and says that my mailbox is full,person im sending to recieves my message but I dont get anything back and I also have deleted some messages and still doesnt work.
i have not been receiving all text message for 3 days now. yet my network provider is saying there is nothing wrong with my phone as i could receive their test messages they sent to my phone. I have had a replacement sim card and network reset. I am having the same problem with several people, of who i receive some text messaes from them, but not all.
hello, I just upgraded my phone to the .732. Everything went smoothly during the upgrade, ever since then I have been having trouble with receiving text messages and MMS messages. I have gone to 3 sites for free ringtones have sent the ring tones to my phone, I have not received anything. I also have setup google voice and I am not getting any text messages from people tht text my google voice number.
I just recieved a text message from myself! And everytime I reply, the same message I send just comes right back to my phone immediately. What does this mean?

When I do a soft reset my phone will text me with my own number. I will have two contacts in a text thread. When they reply to a text after the reboot I will get a response with my phone number listed instead of just the two contacts. When I respond to the text I text myself.
I have a Droid Bionic, and ever since i got the phone, i randomly do not get text messages from another user with an Iphone on the Verizon network. It may be happening with other phones, but I'm only aware of the Iphone because she lives with me. Anyone else having issues with not being able to receive texts? I get no notification or anything. It's as if they weren't sent, but they went through on the originating phone.
I'm having a problem accepting text messages directly to my number from another iPhone. I'm on a family plan and all 3 phones are iPhone 5. This morning my mother in law was texting my wife and I (group message), but I never received anything. When I looked on my wife's iPhone I saw my number was there correctly. My mother in law can only send me messages if she sends them to my Apple ID.Â
I checked my message settings > send receive and both my number and Apple ID are checked. i Don't have any trouble sending or receiving messages from non iphones.
I have a c3-01 and it will not receive any text message you send it. I have checked the message center number and all the settings and it all seems fine. I have also tried to do a full factory reset but it wont complete.
I have recently bought the x8 smartphone but it has not been receiving text messages from other people, now i put the sim card into a different phone and tried that nothing wrong with the sim card that worked fine?
So I bought my S5 a few months ago, from T-Mobile. Recently, I unlocked the phone and switched over to AT&T. Now I've noticed that I'm not receiving all of my text messages. I can't figure out any real pattern, I just know that I'm not getting all of the texts people are sending me, but most of them are going through. Also, I've received several messages reading "122 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. 0605040710000041637469766174653A64743D3135" ....
