How to fix Samsung Galaxy S4 that can't receive text ...

if you have a limited service it means no signal or no network service available, same thing really

my china made nokia 6300 won't turn on after i have changed the sim

if you call your network provider, tell them you got this phone but it wont do MMS, they will send you the configeration settings via a text message, then you just simply follow there instructions, only takes like 10 mins from start to finish x

On every phone there are settings that can stop you sending texts. However all phones should still receive texts even if all the settings were changed. As the text message is directed to you mobile number you should still be receiving?
When you compose your text and select contact does the phone move them to the out/sent box?
Settings to check for sending are your 'message centre number' (your network provider can supply and they are normally different for pay monthly and pay & go) 'Message sent as' should be 'text' (not fax or email etc).
Text problems are common where people change or delete digits from the message centre number by mistake.
If you cannot receive texts i would recommend speaking to your provider for help as it may be your account details at their end? (beyond your control). Hope that helps?

I had this problem once with another cell and I found out that some of the text messages from other phones, like the LG and PDA phones send with kilobytes that are needed to be "downloaded" through a multi-media package or internet access. If you are able to send texts and they receive them, check with your carrier.
Also, try shutting the phone off and restarting.

Let me know if this helps.

hi the first thing you want to do is call tmobile an let them kno that u have pay as you go an that you bought the phone from a friend and they will get you set up you may have to pay for the sidekick plan thats how you will receive your pictures

Hi! The best thing you do is contact the company that your phone isconnected then tell them to activate your text message, maybe your phone line providers did not or they disconnect your text messaging hope this solution help you Thanks !!!!

if you cannot recieve check with your network operator as this may not be active on your number . sending text messages is also another thing that you will have to speak to your network about as you will need a service centre number .
