I’ve checked my settings: Bluetooth is “on”; Cellular is “on”; Cellular Roaming is “on”.

I don’t know what else to look at or what else should be “on” / “off”. Please suggest something. TIA.
Go into settings… then Apps…. Then Messages….. there will be a box that says iMessage. Toggle it to the on position.
