New iPad and messages
I got a new iPad Air yesterday. I find I do receive messages sent from android devices, only Apple devices. The messages show up on my iPhone. I have cellular data as well as wifi on my new iPad
iPad Air, iPadOS 13

You’ll need to ensure that MMS is explicitly enabled on your iPhone - and that Text Message Forwarding is also correctly configured on iPhone.
On your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to ON - and explicitly enable your iPad from the list of devices.
Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging - set to ON
Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is enabled on both your iPhone and iPad:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to ON
