I have the same issue. My husband and I are both on Verizon. I have an iPhone 4S and he has a Galaxy S3. Very rarely can he receive photos I send via text message. He gets the text but not the pictureni send at the same time. It is very frustrating. We had more reliable service when I was on Verizon and he was on AT&T. Any suggestions would be great on how to solve this. Should we both try updating our phones w/ the *228?
