So i just upgraded from a Nexus 4 to iPhone 6, everything is great accept the fact i can't text my non iPhone contacts. iMessage works great and SMS works great when being sent to iPhone users. Anyone got any help to throw this way?

Do calls work OK and have you got a phone signal?

Are all texts not being sent to others or a single contact. I'm thinking of maybe you've blocked them or them you accidentally.

As a process of elimination can you try your Sim Card in another phone to rule out either the Sim Card or Phone which may be at fault.

Is it possible to call the person that can't receive your texts?

It would have to be them that had you blocked.
You can't block the sending of texts from your own phone.
See if you can call them first to check.....?

Ask them to check and to check both channels of blocking as some phones block calls and texts separately.

If they have a Samsung there will be separate call and text block lists.
