  • UPDATE: Verizon (my carrier) delivered an operating system (OS) update that fixes the underlying issue I was having receiving text messages. This video may still help, but check for OS updates if you're having this issue.
    This video walks you through how to clear your Android "Messages" app's cache and data (specifically, on a Galaxy S21 Ultra). This app's cache and data getting out of hand is a common cause of text messages not being received.

    UPDATE: Verizon (my carrier) delivered an update the other day that fixed the underlying issue, at least for me. Check for OS updates if you're still having this issue.

      It should not, or at least it it did not for me or others. The thing is, this remedy was the only thing that worked for me at the time which is why I made this video. But, the problem comes back after a while so it's a temporary hack of a fix that has to be done over and over. Since then my carrier (Verizon) issued an operating system update that permanently fixed the issue. Check to see if you have any updates, especially operating system updates, ready to be installed. I'd try that before going with the remedy explained in this video. Hope this helps! :)

      Since Whatsapp is also affected, my guess is it's something other than your messaging app. I don't use whatsapp, but from what I understand, it's independent of your phone messaging app. Try rebooting your phone? Maybe?

      Do you have a plan with a carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc) and if so do they have a system update awaiting install? That's what worked for me as a permanent fix. The fix in this video is more of a temporary hack that sometimes works for a little while. The permanent fix is in a carrier update, or likely an OS update if the phone is rooted. Good luck!

    • @DadWhoKnowsThings
      @DadWhoKnowsThings  11 місяців тому

      @lebranttt7592 lots of carriers, like Verizon, block spam by default. They'll usually have settings in a loaded spam app, or setting in a carrier app (like the "Verizon" app under account then settings) and you can adjust how sensitive it is for designating numbers as spam. If that's the case, loosen it up a bit and more numbers come through. You'll get more spam though.

      It doesn't always work. If you have your phone through a carrier, ensure you have installed all recommend carrier updates. That's what finally fixed mine. If you have rooted your phone and handle updates yourself, be sure to install all recent updates. Either way just ensure your phone's operating system is updated properly. Good luck! 😊

      Sorry to hear. The thing that actually worked for me finally was a carrier driven system update. Verizon in my case. This works for some as a hack though. And for others it actually works completely. For me it was just a hack until the carrier update. I hope you find something that works and if you do it would be great if you let us know. Cheers! 🙂

      Do you have a carrier support for your phone or, perhaps, did you root your phone? If you have carrier support, see if they have an update that can help. If you rooted your phone, see if there is an operating system update to be applied that may help. For me, a carrier supplied update is what fixed it permanently. This video covers more of a temporary hack that works until you get a carrier or OS update applied. Hope this helps.
