Android Issue

[Jasun]

So I will be referring to three people as; me, person a, and person b.

Need to knows...

Me - iphone

person b and a - android phone 

 

To he point here, person a got a new phone and is in a group chat with me and person b. But whenever I text person a, the text doesn't show as a text, it's a little picture image with a download image but person b's phone is fine. 

The problamactic phone is the LG K8 V if that's any help. Help please?

try person a's sim in person b/your phone

see if it receives the text normally

 

try person b/your phone's sim in person a's phone

see if the problem persists

 

if the texts received are fine, and your sim doesn't work properly on his phone, software fuckup most likely

Can't you all just use something like an internet based service? That would be phone-independent and shouldn't have issues like that.

This is a longstanding bug in android AFAIK. the SMS service will just freeze up sometimes.

nothing you can do about it other than use an internet based service, like whatsapp

I don't think so. not until you can get a software update.
