We have Cricket which uses AT&T towers. If we try to use the phones a message is displayed Emergency Only.

I have AT&T and have been texting all morning and just made a test call with no problem. Only have one bar though.

It could be a tower damage problem, but it also could be that the system is simply overwhelmed as people are calling to check on each other.

Remember the old days of only landlines and that message saying, "All circuits are busy." Well, it can be kind of like that with cells in a time like this.
