I brought a new Nokia Lumia 900. Have a brand new provision sim in from the att retail store with provision lte account.
Anyways, I am not receiving any text messages (specifically no texts from my iphone users).
I can send texts from the lumia 900 and people receive it but when they respond it goes back to my imessage (either on my iphone with no sim in it or my ipad). Even if I put my sim back into the old iphone, the iPhone 4S has my cell phone number "grayed out" without the option of making it the default imessage number. It has my apple ID.
But I can switch my "caller ID" and make my default cell phone number the default apple imessage.
Is there a word around this? It's very annoying that I am missing text messages which get routed to my imessage/apple ID (with my ipad or iphone over wifi (no sim in iphone).
I've heard horrible stories where people resell their iphone but people are still receiving their imessage even after a factory restore.
Is the only option to do a factory restore on my iPhone (and not have any SIM card into during the restore process?).
It's very scary that Apple hasn't figured out this imessage bug with the iphone.
I've only had the nokia lumia 900 for a few days and people are wondering why I haven't responded back to their text. Than when I get home I see 10 plus iMessages responding back to me from texts I sent on the Nokia Lumia (even though I had turned off iMessage on all my iDevices). Once I turn on those imessage, I got those 10 messages from users who responded back to me.
Any other suggestions besides a full restore (without my SIM card in the iPhone?)
