New User- No SMS

@nutmeg I did not use the phone for a week, did nothing to it, now i cannot receive text messages, some photos send now, most texts do send.
I made no changes. I'm trying but it's tough! LOL!

@mw4jet @Nutmeg great news, SMS is now 100% reliable. Here is a link to the post @fredldotme made noting the fixes:

In short, "IMS" services needed to be disabled on the phone so that carriers don't start sending SMS over "IMS" and keep sending them the "old school way" which works.
MMS photos also working reliably when wifi is OFF. With wifi on, it is not, but it is a known problem broader than the Pixel 3a. MMS group messages have trouble coming IN, but can be SENT (again only with wifi off).
