My iMessages only send if I have Wi-Fi?
I have an iPhone 4S and on Sunday I tried to send a text message (it was an iMessage because the other person had an iPhone) but it turned it into a text message and still wouldn't send. I've never had a problem with this before Sunday, and it's really annoying me. I've always been able to send iMessages without Wi-Fi and regular text messages, too. Does anyone know what's wrong or how I could fix this?
Added (1). My mobile date works fine with everything else (apps, safari, ect. Work fine without Wi-Fi), and I don't believe it's my friends' phones because I've tried to text at least five different people and it doesn't work.
Added (2). I turned it off and then back on and it worked again.
Reboot the iphone… Work now?
if not, call your wireless carrier for a possible provisioning error or network error that is causing the iphone to think that you don't have a text and data plan.
Did you turn off your mobile data? Because iMessage has to have an internet connection to work, either through Wi-Fi or mobile data. Or the problem could be on your friends side, try the same thing with them.

- Why is my Iphone not sending as Imessages and receiving iMessages from one person? I'm texting my wife and we both have iPhone's and she is getting the messages as an iMessage but the ones I'm sending her on my end show up at green.

- Why does my iPhone send iMessages to myself? Ever since i updated my iPhone 4 to the new software I have been recieving my own texts when I attempt to text my dad. I also receive some of his texts from other people. It seems like apple linked our accounts somehow but I don't know how to separate them. We use the same apple ID but it's been that way for over a year now with no problems until now. Any help Is appreciated.
