MMS to text not working-again

Hello fire4222, we're here to help you get your MMS and texts working.

Try these troubleshooting tips:

• Restart your device. In some instances it may just be cached information, and restarting the device can resolve your text messaging trend.
• Turn Wi-Fi off. Make sure mobile (cellular) data is enabled and that you can browse the web. Then try again.
• Be sure messaging is on.
  • iOS devices: Go to Settings, then Message, and turn iMessage off and back on.
  • Android devices: Go to Settings, then Advanced Messaging, and turn Advanced Messaging off and back on.
• Check your device's memory storage. If it's full, messages may not come through. Clear storage from the messenger app. Go to Setting >Tap on Apps > Select Messages app > Tap Storage > Select Clear Cache.
• Add +1 (the country code) before the 10-digit phone number for all your contacts in the U.S. This makes sure you can text them if you're out of the country.

Lastly, try resetting the network settings to refresh connection to the network. Settings icon > scroll to and select General management > select Reset > Reset network settings > Reset settings > select Reset to confirm. 

Note: A Factory data reset will revert the device back to factory settings. It will permanently erase all personal data, preferences, settings and content such as pictures, ringtones and apps that are saved to the device. It is recommended that you save (backup) important data before proceeding.

Like every other time before, texts have been going through with no problem, today. This is a gateway problem. There are too many user devices involved here to have all suffer the problems suggested above. There are different PC's, different email accounts (all AT&T), different ISP's, Android devices, IOS devices. When it doesn't work, nothing works. When it does work, everything works. I'm not changing a thing to make this happen. Only email to text messages fail. Nobody has a problem with texts between phones.

I am experiencing that same thing.

I’m having the same issue (again). I haven’t changed anything, everything worked as it should yesterday. This has happened to me before. 

I'm also having the SAME issue again. Has happened before.  Tried all the posted solutions - still not working. I agreee this seems to be a gateway issue not a device issue.

It's at it again for me as well. For the last several days nothing goes through.
