Why am I not getting any text messages?

My girlfriend has an iPhone 6 and I have a what ever little android and both of our phones are active but when ever I text her she'll get the message but when she texts me I get nothing so I don't know what the problem is I tried restating my phone and rebooting my phone I even took the SIM card out and back in but I still get nothing I don't know if this is the problem with my.service or my phone or her phone

As soon as someone uses a "non-standards" based device such as anything Apple then you can't guarantee that things will work.

  • 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 I'm I not getting my text messages? I have a iPhone 5 from t-mobile and I've been noticing these past 2 weeks that I'm not getting my text messages. I can send messages but not receive them. I receive them sometimes but not all the time. Is it my phone or do I need too go too t-mobile?
  • Why can't my boyfriend get any of my text messages? This happens occasionally. Sometimes he gets them but sometimes he doesn't. He has an Samsung android or whatever and I have an iPhone. It's really annoying. He needs a new phone anyways because the battery goes super fast even if he isn't using it. His phone also has been recently just turning off by itself but he thinks it's just because it runs out of battery. He has gotten a new battery several times but it doesn't do anything.
  • Why am i getting text messages late sometimes? I have an Iphone 5c. And with this one girl i talk to often, this seems to happen and it's annoying. I'll text her back and forth, then one day ill text and it looks like she ignores me the entire day, until the next day. Just out of the blue in the afternoon all her responses to that LAST day (Where i was being supposed ignored) Just pop up on my phon efrom that day. Why does this happen?> is it my phone? Hers? Connection?
