Texts Not Being Received By Others But Pictures Are?

Hello all,

I have a Google Pixel 7 Pro.  I have been having a problem since yesterday morning, where text messages are seemingly being sent, but never received by the other person.  However, if I send them a picture (gif, screenshot, etc), they DO receive that. I have no problem receiving texts or pictures from anyone it seems. 

I have gone as far as to perform a factory reset on my phone (ugh) and today it is still happening.

I do not know what else I can check.  I have verified that I have not blocked the person, nor does the person have me blocked on their end.

I am very confused.  At first I thought it was only to Apple device users, but then other people seemed to not be receiving messages either.

    I am having the same issue, pixel 6 pro though. However pictures ect are also not sending.

    I can text my wife though, so it seems potentially only leaving the T-Mobile network.

    I called TMo today and they sent a network reset to my phone where my phone disconnected completely from all networks, then reconnected.  After that and a reboot I was able to text normally.  Might be worth trying.

  • I have a S20. I can't seem to figure why I have 2 friends that can't receive texts from me, only pictures. People also cannot see my responses in group texts. It doesnt matter if it's android or apple or Tmobile or At&t. I have chatted with Tmobile, spoke to Tmobile and Samsung and nobody has a solution. I have reset my network, cleared cache and date, removed my google account. This has been going on for 5 days now. 

  • My daughters are verizon iphone users and since yda they can receive mms but not texts messages. 

    Did your phones have software update last week? I'm on Android 14 

  • I found out I have 3 friends that are Verizon iphone users and they can't receive my messages. I'm Samsung Note 20. But nobody receives my messages in group texts. Doesn't matter what phone company or type of phone. I had an update 2 days after this issue started. I'm not sure about them.
