I got the 15 last week and I cannot text non iPhones. Sometimes, they go through individually, sometimes not and never if within a group. My settings have not changed. I have checked the usual issues and removed the 1- from in front of the phone numbers. Help! This is more than an annoyance, as some groups are essential for work.

iPhone 15, iOS 17
In our case, the carrier - Verizon Wireless - told me a (free) feature was missing from the line - called "Integrated Messaging". No clue how that was missing, but they added it and the issue was resolved. Hope this will help someone else!

OK. So, what’s the solution? Providing that would help many for certain.
i tried calling verizon not long ago, and the lady said that she was gonna try to fix the problem. the fall disconnected as she was fixing it, and now im unable to call anyone from any of my devices. is that normal? will verizon call me back or something? im anxious and idek why 😭😭
Very helpful. I just got a new work phone and nothing has changed in my settings. I have Verizon on this work phone. I will ask IT about Integrating Messaging. I can receive texts from Androids but I get an immediate "Not Delivered" in red when trying to send a text to an android. My boss has a droid and he is the one I need to text to from this work phone
I’m having the same issue. Is there any possible way to deal with the issue myself without trying to call? I was on the phone the other day for 5 hours just to try to switch my phone over from T-Mobile to Verizon.
Yup same issue here. My iPhone suddenly stopped receiving text messages from my android friends. This is so frustrating because SMS is basic messaging standard. imessage needs to work with that … the solution to "have everyone buy an iphone" is tone deaf. I cant even do basic scrolling screenshots on this expensive phone. on some apps multiple page content is not recognized. Sheesh .. if anyone figures out how to fix basic SMS messaging between android and iPhone please send the answer over. This is ridiculous the phone and service and is not worth 1k.
This is very strange. This started all of a sudden last weekend. Now I can Not send any txt to android users. All the groups I’m in I can see everyone talking but can no longer respond. I have reset network settings, rebooted phone. I’m lost and this is a massive problem! I need this fixed! What’s also odd but fixed itself I couldn’t talk to Facebook messenger for three days. Now it works. But these txting issues need to be fixed. Btw iPhone 15 Pro Max!
Thank you BUT I TRIED ALL AND NO E HAVE WORKED. This is beyond frustrating, both personally and professionally.
You are correct! It was very difficult to get through to appropriate help at Verizon, but it IS now fixed.
Thanks for letting us know; sorry to hear it was such a hassle!

What they do to fix the issue I’m having the same problem just that I’m on IPhone 14 pro max with Verizon
the same thing is happening to me. i even contacted Apple and talked to a worker, and i did everything they told me to do. it still doesnt work.
When I'm on a call that's disconnected, I'll wait an hour or so, then try calling back. If Verizon has not called you back yet, and you're still having issues, call again.

what article?
I did contact my carrier and they took me through all these steps to check my phone and it has not changed at all. I am still having this problem!
What did Verizon do to fix the problem? I am having the exact same issue and tMobile wasn't able to fix it
