    Why can’t I send texts/why aren’t people receiving my texts?

    Posted: 17 Dec 2021 04:04 AM PST

    So up until yesterday evening, I can send texts and people can receive them no problem. But then I texted my boyfriend last night and he didn't get it. When I was next to him, I sent him a text to see if he got it and it never went through to him but it said it was sent.

    When I called him, it went straight to voicemail. But when I call him on my TextNow app, it works and he gets the call. He didn't block me either.

    I asked my friend if she got my text and she said no but was able to get my text I sent with TextNow app.

    Why can't they receive my texts? I don't even receive an error message.

    They have a android if that matters.

    I have an IPhone 11 from Verizon with IOS 15.1

    Question about Camera repair

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 07:02 PM PST

    Hi, I recently broke the camera on my iPhone 12. Both the camera and the glass that cover it are damaged. I don't think insurance covers this.

    Is this something I can fix myself? I've never gone to Apple for repairs but I'm partial to going to them because I care a lot about the camera quality. If I did go to Apple would I be looking at like $100 or $500?

    Thanks!

    Spilt milk on iphone 11

    Posted: 17 Dec 2021 02:59 AM PST

    Hey guys, today I was eating cereal and so accidently spilt it, the milk came on the bottom part of the phone, speaker and a little bit of the charging port, I cleaned it IMMEDIATELY, the milk came in perpendicularly, it wasn't submerged in the milk. The speaker is fine, I played 165hz for like 10 min, for the first <20 seconds the sound was a little bit muffled. but it works normally now, i called my friend and spoke to him everything is working fine. I even plugged it in the charger and it charges fine, it doesn't say liquid detected etc. I even rebooted it and also everything is fine, only thing that's unusual is that the sim tray comes out halfway and a little bit of lag in the keyboard.

    edit: I restarted my phone and it said mobile data isn't able to connect, idk if it's because I had one bar or it's bcs of water damage. The data is working fine now 30 seconds after the notification said that i couldn't. connect . I went ti settings turned the data off and back on, it's working right now.

    How to back up and restore without losing anything after phone gets restored?

    Posted: 17 Dec 2021 02:53 AM PST

    iPhone Xr

    I apologize for asking this since it's probably very common. I tend to ask follow up questions if I'm confused, so I'm posting to ask a couple of questions about backing up and restoring.

    I want restore my iPhone, but I want to make sure I don't lose everything. I've heard of people backing up into iCloud, but it has a 5gb limit. So I'm not sure if I could do an iCloud back considering the amount of stuff I have is over 5gb.

    I have a bunch of photos backed up into google photos. If I restore, my photos should be fine correct? This is probably also a question that I will ask on google subreddits.

    Is there anything I can back things up to besides iCloud?

    And is there anything I should be aware when backing up and restoring?

    Just in general, I want to make sure everything was the same as before.

    Additionally, will restoring update my iOS? I'm a bit scared of getting the new iOS update...

    Past photos in my phone (iPhone X) are taking up all the storage space despite being deleted.

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 05:06 PM PST

    I've deleted them from my recently deleted and still, despite being deleted, they are taking up storage space. The problem has been going on for about a year now. Furthermore, all the current photos that I have, if I delete them, they still also continue to take up storage space.

    How can I get rid of all the storage space that these deleted photos are taking up? Additionally, how can I prevent future photos from taking up space after being deleted?

    Antenna you can connect directly to your iPhone?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 09:38 PM PST

    I'm figuring out what I'm gonna do for internet in my van I'm converting into a camper. So far the cheapest option is to jailbreak my phone and use an app that lets my use my unlimited data as a hotspot through my phone. I'm not sure I'm going to do this yet as I need to look into the risks some more and see what ways there are of dealing with them.

    If I did go with this option I would still like an antenna (not a signal booster) for when I'm further out in the boonies. They make antenna that connect to SIM routers, yet I'm not sure my data plan would work with these. So, I'd have to connect straight to my iPhone somehow?

    Does anyone know if these exist? If not, can I find an adapter maybe? Thanks for any help.

    Unlocking iPhone of Deceased

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 07:16 PM PST

    Hey all... I am reaching out trying to help a friend. I know nothing about iphones other than they are incredibly secure. Her dad recently passed away and Apple won't / can't unlock the phone for her. Does she have any options to try to obtain her dad's photos and contacts or is she out of luck?

    Ever since update, when swiping up out of a safari video/stream, it no longer plays in the background

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 06:33 PM PST

    I'm not talking about the picture in picture.

    12 Pro Max iOS 15.1.1

    Before the update, when I would swipe up, or switch apps , the stream would continue in the background and the audio would continue.

    This no longer works, and I was wondering if there's a setting I might have turned off or if there's nothing I can do.

    I turned off automatic Pip on purpose because snapchat doesn't work with PIP

    iPhone to iPhone SMS Texting

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 06:12 PM PST

    I recently upgraded to an iPhone 13 pro. I noticed over the last few days, when I text with people who also have iPhones the texts won't go through unless I'm on wifi. I can text people with android phones just fine. Goes through and we can have conversations. I do have SMS enabled in settings.

    I do always have cellular data off. I don't like using it and I'm on wifi like 90% of the time. I don't think this is the issue because I never had the problem on my previous iPhone SE.

    Anyway, hoping someone out there had a similar issue and can help.

    Thanks!

    iPhone 12 Pro Max Color shift

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 05:06 PM PST

    iPhone 12 Pro Max color temperature shift

    While using my Max it constantly shifts color temperature. One moment the screen is one way, then I move into different lighting and it very noticeably shifts the greys and other colors to be lights and washed out. It's very noticeable as I use dark mode a lot. Reddit and the notes app show these color shifts very much and it's noticeable on video as well. What's going on and is there a way to fix it?

    Backing up locked and disabled iPhone 5?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 04:46 PM PST

    My gf forgot the passcode to her old iPhone 5 and wants to get her old pictures etc off of it. It's disabled by too many passcode attempts. Is there a way I can create a backup/import old pictures from it without a trusted computer and without a passcode?

    Focus mode seems to have broken my DND while driving. No longer comes on by itself. Should I change setting to automatic and how exactly does the phone know it’s connected to car Bluetooth versus some other Bluetooth because it does in fact connect to my Bluetooth stereo

    Factory reset on iPhone 13

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 02:57 PM PST

    I am trying to reset an iPhone 13 back to factory settings. The phone was my brother's and he recently passed. Is this something that I should take to a particular subreddit or to perhaps the Apple store? I know that there used to be a combination of buttons that would do the trick but things seem to have changed.

    My apologies if I have brought this question to the wrong place.

    Cellular Data Very Slow (11 Pro Max 15.1)

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 02:02 PM PST

    Last week i was out and about and all of a sudden cellular data was having a hard time loading anything. I did a speed test with fast com and my results topped out at 3.9 Mbps.

    This is with a full LTE connection. I tried the usual things, hard reset, power cycle, reset network settings. But nothing seemed to work.

    A few hours later, it remedied itself and returned to working as normal.

    It happened again 2 days ago and has been the same ever since. I'm at a loss on what to do. If i'm not on WiFi my phone is nigh unusable.

    Anything helps, thanks.

    suspicious sms in imessage, glitch or security breach? Anyone else experience this with a strange text?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 01:38 PM PST

    suspicious sms in imessage, glitch or security breach? Anyone else experience this with a strange text?

    I didn't even know how to title this-
    I've posted this under a r/ scam already but, I thought because this subredit is meant for iphone. I think it's okay to post here as well.

    I got a weird message on Sunday evening I replied "Stop "to it, ( idk why i did that) then as I was going to block the number, I pressed the iphone default contact picture button, (sorry i dont know how else to describe that part) to see the info & get to the block caller option.

    Well, I scrolled down a little and noticed, it didnt have a number connected to it but worse, all of my imessage history, photos, texts, links and more (location?, passes?) So, messages that I had sent and that I had received were showing up under this odd message as if I had shared all of that with them.
    It is so weird, I know. I contacted apple via their support chat, didn't really seem helpful, didn't really seem to care, brushed me off and told me to contact my carrier.

    I asked if I should factory reset, they said sure, I also changed my icloud password.
    The following morning after a long night of anxiety, got in touch with my carrier. Had been transfered to fraud center but then ended up in tech center somehow.
    Told them everything, they thought it was a good idea that I had factory reset the phone, suggested maybe creating an entirely new apple ID. I am still thinking about doing that. Also, helped me change phone # just as an extra precaution.

    I had just joined this carrier, got a 'new' number and iphone from them.
    I was running ios 15.1.1 on an iphone 13 pro

    *note, that I have seen a few people post on one of those phone # reporting sites, under the full 866 number in my screen shot--

    Someone also commented on my other post under r/ scam, having the same problem even though they did not reply to the message.
    They mentioned that they too were able to see their messages under the profile info from this fake chase message.
    note that the shared items dont appear in line, as a text but, as in shared documents and photos etc.
    I added some of my screenshots here.

    As I was taking screenshots, my friend sent a video of their cat & it appeared right away under the weird message' info even though I had not even opened the message yet. The screenshots I took and sent to myself, also appeared.

    Anyone have a similar issue, got the same text, similar text and see if things that arent supposed to be there, show up there as if it was shared with weird text's sender?

    Messages coming through weird from android

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 01:00 PM PST

    Every time I get a text from an android, it comes through as a group text from the persons number to me and the person's contact name. For example if I have someone named Jessie, it will come through as "From (the actual number) To you and Jessie". Does anybody know why it does this or how to fix it?

    Do I need to swap SIM cards if swapping iphones?

    Posted: 16 Dec 2021 12:45 PM PST

    My mom and I are swapping iphones, we want to keep our own phone numbers, but we prefer each others devices. We each backed up our phones to icloud and will do a factory reset, and then log in to each other's phone wiht our own icloud account. but, do we also need to switch sims so our phone numbers switch over? or will the numbers switch over when we log in to our icloud accounts?
