I've had Verizon for about 20 years and I have had Androids for every phone until the Blackberry Storm mistake. Up until then, i was able to text anyone anything in any format. A little after changing back to an android I found myself unable to send mms messages to anyone that wasn't in the Verizon network. Also, if i am in a group text with multiple carriers, only Verizon people see my texts regardless of whether it is a basic text or a picture. I now use my phone for work and this is getting to be a hassle. So much so, i'm thinking of changing carriers to see if that works. I have deleted contacts, messages, had others do the same and still it doesn't fix the issue. What am I missing?
