I had to get a new iphone. I backed up everything from my old iPhone to the iCloud including my messages. I restored the backup from the cloud on my new iPhone and several hundred of my messages won’t transfer even though I’ve kept the phone on charge with WiFi all day. I also cannot receive many messages on the new phone, despite all of the settings being on to receive iMessages.

Did an iCloud backup from one phone and transferred it to another. Messages still won’t go through to new phone.
