Hi everyone! As of late Wednesday, it appears that people who do not have T-Mobile aren't receiving my text messages. To me, they look like they're sent, however, both Verizon and AT&T customers aren't receiving anything on their end. I spoke to T-Mobile via Facebook and I've done the following:Cleared cache on phone Cleared cache and data on messages app Made sure all apps (Google Play and Galaxy Store) were up-to-date Made sure phone was up-to-date Reset network settings Reset all settings Deleted all messages in my phone (and emptied the trash) Turned on and off airplane mode Turned on and off most connections/network type settings Restarted my phone way too many times They told me I can come in-person today and get a new SIM card. I'm hoping that fixes it, however, I'm wondering if anyone else has had the same problem or has ideas? T-Mobile says my account looks fine and everything on their end looks fine. My phone is a Galaxy S21 and is only 1.5 years old, and I've been with T-Mobile for years.

They told me that too. New SIM card did nothing. I upgraded phone and people are getting my texts but half still aren't. It's a T-Mobile issue that they aren't addressing. Or Samsung is dumping us

This is definitely a known tmobile issue. I have been having this issue (primarily with att users) for several months. I have 4 phone lines (both iPhone and android) and I am constantly on my phone so it has been a big problem for me and I have also been a good case for tmobile to study. The problems are intermittent. I have submitted 3 official repair tickets been to multiple store locations and gone through all the troubleshooting steps possible over the course of more than a dozen calls to tech support. As a last resoort tmobile sent me a replacement phone for my main device (galaxy ultra s22+). Of course that didn't work either. At this point I am waiting for tmobile to make changes to their network settings to fix the issue and to extend to me a credit for all that I have been through. Since it has been so long (and they've tried to blame everyone else for all this time) I am not holding my breath for either a network repair or a credit. But I have informed them that I will continue to demand it. I am prepared to sue then if needed. Although again, my odds are probably slim to get fair compensation. The reason for my long post is to let everyone know about my experience and to save you all some of the trouble and confusion that I have endured. It isn't your phone, the other person's phone or carrier.... it is the tmobile network and there is nothing that anyone else can do but them. And they are well aware.

Like everyone here, I've been having these same issues. Seems like RCS is a problem. I also thought it was my phone and got a new one just to find out it's also has issues. I have an older phone as well for my business that is not having this problem so I have to wonder if it's not one of the operating system glitches for newer phones. Not sure what to do at this point. Got to wonder if it's a carrier issue though. It sure does seem like it might be

You want to see proof of my intermittent texting issues on the tmobile network? Lol

People Outside of T-Mobile Not Receiving My Texts

I've ben having this problem on the reciving end of messages for over a year and a half with 20+ calls to t-mobile. I only notice i am not getting messages when either in a group chat I start seeing messages without context and look at someone else's phone who is in the group and see it or I've had my mom call asking why I'm not answering her and I never received it. I use Google messages, but it was happening with Samsung messages too have had 3 different Samsung devices, 4+ sim cards, 2 different esim updates. I've messed with RCS both on and off, I consistently reset my network settings, restart phone, clear cache,etc and they can't give me an answer. My mom is on the plan with me, has the same device, and hasn't had this issue. It happens with both other androids and iphones. It also happens with both t-mobile and other carries so it ist just t-mobile on my end. I'm about to leave t-mobile if I can't get it resolved, which I really don't want to because besides this I've had nothing but good from them but...

I just started having this issue today, first time I’ve experienced it after like 10 years of being a Tmobile customer.

Something interesting: I live in a high rise building. When I'm in my apartment, I send texts and they're received by people, but I don't receive responses. When I go downstairs to the lobby of my building, I get all of their texts at once.
E.g.
I send a text at 1pm, my friend confirms via instagram they received it when I sent it. They respond immediately, and I don't receive their response… until I go downstairs to the lobby. I'm assuming it's because I end up using a different tower? Not sure. All I know is, I've lived in this apartment for a year and I've never had this issue until 2 days ago.

I don't have Samsung Meet installed. I debloat my devices when I first get them.
I message a friend of mine on Verizon daily without any issues. I also regularly text Canada and my in-laws on AT&T without any issues.

I was able to install beta and still have the same issue. Messages are not being received by Verizon, AT&T, and Google Voice (as far as testing goes).
T-Mobile to T-Mobile continues to function, but no cross-carrier.

Considering the issue not only spans across US and Canadian carriers. This issue is on the Google end sewhere. I have been a Google Messages beta tester for years. Builds are hit and miss but at the se the, Google takes the feedback seriously and the beta app is updated at least once a day where the regular app might get an update once a month.

I just tried to enroll in beta to see if it fixes the issue….the button does nothing. Clicking Join is just that….click click click, nothing. :|
