SMS / MMS issue migrate S21FE from fido

Levelbear1

I have helped many people migrate without issue.  Usually resetting the APN setting to default populates them properly and all works. In this instance NO

Any suggestions before a factory reset / wipe?

Origin carrier is FIDO / ROGERS (phone number transferred)
Phone Hardware  Samsung Galaxy S21FE

Almost seamless transition process
What works

  • INCOMING CALLS
  • OUTGOING CALLS
  • VOICEMAIL
  • DATA (3G 4G LTE 5G)

What doesn't work 

  • SMS send
  • SMS receive
  • MMS
  • Register RCS

Next step is a factory reset but.
TRIED

  • resetting APN DEFAULT
  • validated APN data auto populated
  • add APN with correct data (MMSC proxy: mmscproxy.mobility.ca or version posted with IP)
  • reset network.

@Levelbear1 

can you confirm if you activate with new number or port in number from another old provider?

For your SMS issue, PM is having problem provisioning text capability for new activations.  And i RCS registration will also be impacted without a working SMS.
