I only get pictures as text messages not as iMessage?
I have an iPhone 4S and recently I can only receive pictures if it is sent as a text message rather than an iMessage. This is really frustrating for group chats especially because whenever someone sends a picture they have to send it as a text too for me to see. I don't know why it does this now because it has never done it before. I went to my settings an made sure everything was right and it was. What else do I do to fix this?

- Why is my iPhone5 sending some messages as iMessage and others as Text Messages? I understand that messages are sent as Text Messages when there's no signal or poor Wi-Fi connection. However, I'm successfully texting some people using iMessage but others (still iPhone users) as Text messages. The other person will send iMessages and then my responses will be sent as green Text Messages.

- Why do I only get iPhone text messages? I have the iPhone 5. My friends have told me recently that they have been texting me (non-iphone users) and that I never reply. The problem is, I never get anything. It seems now as if the only people I get messages from are from iPhone users. I have played around in the settings and everything seems to be normal, I have even turned off/on my phone. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks. @Zoe: IMessage is on, yes. Is it supposed to be off?
- Why am I not receiving text messages because of iMessage? When I have my iMessage on, I'm not receiving texts from my iPhone using friends who have their iMessage OFF. But if I turn my iMessage off, then I don't receive texts from my friends that have their iMessage ON. Is there a way to fix this? Is there a way I can receive texts from everyone while my iMessage is on, regardless if their iMessage is on or off?
