CANT RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES!!!!

[BEEPBOOPBOP]

My phone won't receive text messages but can send them. It can also receive picture messages sometimes. Help???

Hello BEEPBOOPBOB,

I know texting is an important form of communication.  What type of device do you have?  Before I suggest other things, have you removed your battery and powered back up and retested?

My fiancé and I are also having this issue. He has a droid X and I have the lg env 3. We can send texts but don't get texts until about 2 hours after they are sent to us. However.. We can speed up the process by sporadically making phone calls.. If we suspect someone has replied to our texts.. If we call each other or voicemail or wherever.. It pushes the texts through whatever is holding them back and we can then receive them. We have full bars and I did shut off my phone, take out the battery and then put it back in and turn it on. Hopefully you can help?

I am having the SAME problem. Verizon has done this twice to me. They upgrade my phone WITHOUT telling me and it's starting to tick me off.

Hello Ephillips72311,

I understand your concern about messaging with your fiance. I can definitely assist you, but would need some additional information. I will be sending you a private message, so if this issue is still occurring, I would like to ask that you please reply to the private message with the information requested.  

Thank you!

I got a text message saying the following:  "Message size:  30 KB  Expires Apri 5, 10:47 pm" Then there are two options "Download" and "Reject".  If I click Download, the message says "Downloading" but then I get a message saying "Text message not received"  This happened 3 times!  The messages are from another verizon user and she told me that she was trying to send me pictures she had taken with her Verizon iPhone.  Can anyone tell me what is happening with this? I have a Droid Razr and I am well below my monthly quota for minutes, data, etc.
