Is the text message settings set to allow SMS/MMS over cellular instead of iMessages?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

GREPES11, ensuring that your son's iPhone messaging operates correctly is important. Help is here. In order for us to best assist, can you clarify the messaging platform that your son is using? Is it the Messages app that came with the phone, or another app? What happens on his phone when he attempts to send/receive messages?

Thanks for clarifying that he is using the native messaging application on his phone, GREPES11. I am committed to resolving this messaging issue as soon as possible. Let's explore options and test a proven messaging application that works perfectly with messages from Android devices. Please have him download and install the Verizon Messages application (http://spr.ly/6584DhStQ) and test. Keep us posted.
