I have a Ulefone note11p and can not send or receive text messages to contacts on the public mobile carrier however I can send and receive text messages from contacts with Bell carrier with no problems. Any solutions?

@dieselmax 

Does talk work?

With data issue, you may want to check your APN Settings.  Maybe screenshot your APN settings in your phone.  Does not explain the unusual texting issue.

@dieselmax   your data is not working, too.. so, you have an issue with your phone or settings. 

 

I know you have tried resetting your network but didn't work.   Try a Factory restore first WITHOUT restoring anything from the backup.  Just clean Factor restore, then try access data and then try calls and text to different providers.

@dieselmax Are you able to browse internet on data? Test texting with data on.

Then Reset the device's network settings.

HI @dieselmax   , did you just activate with PM and ported your number into PM today?

 

How about sending and receiving text to and from Rogers?  

How about calling those people on PM network?

 

If you just port your number, you might have delay , up to a day to receive text.   But sending should be ok.  Please try reboot your phone and resend again.  Also, try sending to more different contacts on PM instead of just one or two.  Just want to make sure it is not related to one or two particular contacts on PM network
