Were you only having issues sending iMessages to one person? Or to all iPhone users? I am not able to send iMessages when connected to data, only when connected to wifi.

ive checked those setting and turned them off and turned on but it didn't work it all started when a message failed to send to I sent it as a text message now it won't send it as an imessage
Go to Settings>Messages and make sure that iMessage is activated. iMessage will only send to other iOS devices. The iPhone will send SMS if you are sending to non-iOS devices. You also need to make sure that you have data turned on, and be either connected to Wi-Fi, or cellular data.
When you checked the area I asked you to look at, does it show that iMessage is activated? What is set for Send & Receive? Do you see a checkmark by your phone number? Does this failure to send as an iMessage only occur for a single contact? If so, then delete the conversation and start over again. I've had iMessages fail to send and then send as a text, but that has never affected the ability to send to the same recipient a short time later as an iMessage.
Good to hear.
the conversation is what fixed it
