Different Number
When I receive text messages from my wife it comes through as a different number, not hers. ¿Por qué?
interesting.
with this one you’ll want to try contacting TMO to have them dig into it to see whats going on. you can call in but contacting them via Facebook or Twitter will start you off with tier 2 support instead of the call in tier 1 support.
this is needing deeper digging to figure out.
After having this issue and finding no solution I figured it out.
*On androids with googles messages app*
When activating the sim T-Mobile gives you a temp number if you message someone before your number is swapped Google will register the temp number as your RCS number and it will remain there even after your number is swapped, unless manually changed.
The change is easy.
Go into the app - settings - RCS chat, from here turn it off and desync the previous number, add the new number, then wait for the confirmation code and welcome to using your actual number for texting.
Peaces ✌🏻
