Text messages not going

Since iOS 12 I can receive text messages but not reply to them. Tried every which way . The very odd one might go but 90% immediately come up failed to send without even trying.

Replies

SMS or iMessages?

Turn Airplane mode On, Ensure WiFi is fully off, Force restart the device, Turn everything back to how it was

I have the same problem. I can send one or two messages but after that, the UI stops updating - a new message comes in, I can see the notification but it doesnt appear in the thread. Once that happens, I cant send any more new ones. Sometimes killing the app and going back in help, sometimes not and a reboot is needed.


Things I tried to fix it:


1. The above idead about airplane mode

2. Signing out of imessages/factime/icould and doing a hard reboot.


Neither thing helped.


One more note: This seems to have start in ios 12 Dev Beta 3.

Minor update: ios 12 beta 4 did not fix this problem for me.

This seems to be fixed in Beta 5
