Why can't I receive texts, but can receive calls!

Why can I not receive texts?! I have no service issues, full signal, unlimited texts etc. I can make calls and send texts and I can also receive phone calls but not texts? This is driving me insane! I have tried everything I can possibly think of!


Please please please someone help me. I am a text-a-holic and feel like I have had my arm chopped off! 🙂

Go in to settings > messages and make sure sms and mms are toggled on.


If you are still not able to send or recieve text messages go to settings > general > reset > reset network settings


If you are still not able to send/recieve at this point contact your wireless carrier
