Can't receive texts - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

I just purchased my S7 Edge on the 25th of this month and rooted it the next day. I was receiving texts on the same day after I rooted but that was the last day that I've received a text. I can receive Whatsapp messages but not stock messages. I can send them but just not receive them. I've taken out the sim card and put it back in. I didn't see a way to select another APN besides the one named Verizon Internet. Would anyone have any suggestions?

[Q] Some phones wont receive my text messages?

So this may be a question i'll direct at my service provider (Sprint), but I thought I would ask here too.
When I try to send text messages to my dad (AT&T Iphone), he never receives them. When I try to send them to my mom or sister (both AT&T Iphone), they do receive them.
My dad can send them to me and I receive them fine, they just never show up on his phone. I've never had an issue with anyone else receiving them.
Has anyone else ever experienced this?

AT&T Troubleshoot

Up until a couple days ago I had a Samsung Jack, for those of you who don't know what it is; it is a blackberryish Windows Mobile device. My Samsung Jack would sometimes not send/receive text messages unless I restarted the phone. Upon doing so I would get a flood of texts. Even when I sent them and the other person did not receive them, it would fail to notify me that my text messages did not get sent.
I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrockey off Craigslist. At first, pictures wouldn't send. Then I stopped being able to receive calls. Now I can't send text messages or use data EVEN WITH WIFI ON. I thought it had to be reported stolen and disabled. However, I can still make calls and if I put my sim card back into my Samsung Jack it will not send texts either. Thoughts?
Don't know but maybe a bad sim card.

Yup that's what it was, never knew sim cards to really go bad lol I had my last one for like 6 years.
ATT troubleshooting.
Check with ATT tech support with your account, if they send you free messages or not. most probably SIM issue , but i saw sometime account pending or using non smartphone sim on smartphone can cause this.

Cannot recieved text

Purchased a Moto x PE from best buy unlocked. Was using it with T-Mobile perfectly for 2 days and now today I cannot receive text messages. I can place and receive calls, send texts, access data and the only way I can receive texts are if I place an active call I get bombarded with texts that I did not receive before. I performed factory reset and did not fixed issue. I also reseted the APN settings and problem still persists....

Blu R1 HD on TMobile. nice phone for the price, but not receiving text messages.

this is a strange one. I'm able to send out messages through phone, but will not receive them. I have tested sending and receiving from 3 different phones and none I do not receive any. I tried setting up an alternate APN, but did not help at all.
any thoughts?

no thoughts, just reporting same issue
I've had weird problems on T-Mobile on other phones that caused picture messages / group chat messages to not be received. It ended up Hangouts was the problem and when I used the default Messaging app it worked. Also, I found that Textra works. Maybe try that?
os update fixed all issues, ymmv.
Same thing happened to my phone: I flashed it to remove all the ads, and it's also rooted. Put SIM card in it, I could send messages and receive and make calls.
Solved it by taking SIM card out, putting it in my iPhone. I received the missing messages, then I just put the SIM card back in the Blu R1 HD. And then it started working. Weird? I know.
Note: I was using a Nano to Micro SIM adapter so idk if that was the issue since I reset it a couple of times
SMS worked fine for me on a fresh SIM from T-Mobile.
If you were using iMessage before, you need to deregister your phone number from iMessage.

Free Msg: Unable to send message - Message Blocking is Active

Free Msg: Unable to send message - Message Blocking is Active
I started receiving this message at exactly 4PM in california today whenever I try to text people. When android people try to text me they get the exact same message, when iphone people text me they don't receive anything but I will not receive any messages or be able to send any messages from and to anyone. I can still call, and called my parents to see if their phone is working since we have the same plan (iTalkBB), and they can send messages freely, just not to me. I figured it is a phone issue and does anyone have any clue as to how to fix this
I had this issue before, it is most likely an issue with your carrier. I have T-Mobile prepaid service. In my case I was trying to text a local 5 digit number that would send back bus/train arrival times, all you had to do is send a message containing the stop ID. But I kept getting some BS about message blocking being active. I could text my friends, no issues. It didn't matter what ROM I was running. I called T-Mo, they said that prepaid customers aren't allowed to message such short number, unless they asked for an exception. The issue is fixed for me now.
my family all use the same carrier and only I have this problem, and my case is all numbers, i can receive pictures and group texts however, which is i found out yesterday
Has the phone had any recent updates? I found that it may be Google Carrier Services that may have upset mine in the past. It gets updates. I adjusted my APN settings and saved and then it was fine.
This just happened to me. My girlfriend wrote to me and received this message. After mistakenly assuming I had blocked her and being mad at me that her account was behind, they suspended her posts. His address changed and that caused the automatic payment to fail. Restart your phone then call your carrier before assuming they are on the other person's phone. if nothing is working I recommend you read this article https://grouphowto.com/message-blocking-is-active/
