Problem seem to be solved. She had my email address saved to the same contact as my phone number. I guess the apple imessage service was trying to like my number/email to imessage or something peculiar, even though I have never used it! | |

I have this problem with a couple of people as well, tried all sorts - the only thing that seemed to make a difference with me is if they have my personal email address (same as my icloud one for my pad) in my contact it would mess up, got them to remove that address and it got better, not 100% though. I relented in the end and got WhatsApp | |

Can't say i've seen the option within Android, certainly not with the default AOSP or Google Hangout apps; might be worth looking at third-party apps as they may give you the option to adjust it. | |

quote: Occasionally I don't receive SMS from her iPhone. But it is not as frequent. I have never had an apple device (apart from an old iPod) so iMesssage shouldn't be causing any issues. I also found those links, seems a bit excessive to delete all her messages, but might be the only way. I might get her to try the disable iMesssage then re enable it. See if that helps. Or resetting network settings. After I wrote this last night, I actually enabled delivery reports (three charge for each report now!!!!). So far haven't had a SMS that she's complained about not receiving, but next time she does I'll see if her iPhone has reported the SMS as delivered. One think I was looking for last night, SMS validity period? Apparently cant be changed on modern phones?! I remember old Nokia's it was an option under SMS settings. | |
