My iphone doesn't alert me when i get a text message?
I have a iphone 4s. I used to never have problems with my phone but then I went away for a month and my mom had my phone for the month. Once I returned there was something off with my phone. If i receive a text message it just doesn't alert me. It doesn't ring or vibrate and when you hit the home button and it displays your lockscreen/wallpaper it doesn't show I have a text message. The only way I can find out if I got a text message is if I hit the home button, then type in my password to unlock the phone and then I manually look. Normally it rings and when you get a text message on your lock screen it will say you got a message with the persons name next to it but I literally have nothing. Its very strange though. If i'm using my phone and I get a text it will ring, but once my phone locks up I won't get any alert whatsoever. When I get phone calls it will ring and it will even say missed call by whoever on my lockscreen. It also seems like my phone will also ring if my phone is not officially locked where I got to type in my password. I have the setting on 5 minutes before my phone locks up where i need to type in my 4 digit number to unlock it. Now if my phone is locked where i got the black screen but it hasn't been 5 minutes yet so I don't need my 4 digit password to get in, it will ring. But once my phone locks where I need my password I get no alert. It is the strangest thing ever. I need to know how to get my texts to ring again and I also need to know how I can get it to display on my lock screen/wallpaper so I know I got a message. And don't tell me to make sure I put a ringer on my text message cause it is there so its not the problem. Please help because I miss half my text messages because there in no way I can possibly know i got a text until I type in my password and look manually.
If you have went to your settings and made sure that it is set and it doesn't work, I would recommend you bring it in where you bought it at and have them check it out.
- Will my message be delivered if sent as text message on iphone? My friend said that she was having phone problems earlier today. My message was being sent as an imessage, but I guess she wasn't receiving everyone of them, just getting the notifications that they were sent to her but she couldn't read them. I then responded to her, but it was sent as a text message this time and i have gotten no response. I'm not as much concerned about her responding or not, I just want to know if she will receive the message.
- Why won't my Iphone alert me when i get a text? My phone, iphone 4s, always used to show me a banner whenever i get a text. It just randomly stopped. I checked in notifications about a million times and its set to show me a banner. I haven't dropped it or done anything that would have broken my phone. I would just really like to know how to fix this without taking it to an apple store.
- Why doesn't it alert me when there's a hurricane? I have a iPhone & I see many people get alerts on their phone saying there's a tornado, hurricane etc. How do I get those alert notifications. I went to settings and turned on emergency alerts but doesn't give me anything. Yesterday there was a tornado spotted around where I live. But got no notifications. Is there any app I can use?!
