Why don't text messages sent while my phone is off get delivered when I turn the phone on? This has only changed since update to new OS.
iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.4
Text messages - SMS/MMS are exchanged via your carrier's cellular network only. Any problem with receiving text messages you need to take up with your cell phone carrier.
I contacted support from carrier. With phone turned off, the carrier sent an SMS and it showed as delivered by their trace. It never showed up on my phone. They suggested restoring the phone to default. I did this, and recovered data from restored backup. Did not fix problem. Texts come through fine as long as phone is on. It is only if it is off that texts sent get lost and never show up.
I went to Apple store for help. At the Genius bar, this went unsolved, but I have been contacted and Apple knows about this software glich and is working on a fix for it.
I will post again and share when it gets fixed.
Texts sent while iPhone 4 is off never arrive? only since update to OS 7
