I'm not sure if it's because I'm jailbroken, but my friend has android and occasionally she won't get any of my texts.. or they come at a later time. I always tell her to restart her phone when that happens and it solves the problem for awhile, but then starts back up again. It's getting annoying and neither of us could figure out what's causing it.. but i'm starting to wonder if it's because I'm jailbroken? That shouldn't have anything to do with it, should it?
 
Nothing to do with the jb.
It's a carrier issue.
She's on a different wireless provider than you right?

Yes. She's on T-Mobile, and I'm on ST.. but AT&T so I get good service and reception. She's in NY but some reason she barely gets service in certain places.
 
I see.
Sounds like it's a problem on her end receiving texts.
She loses service and then messages won't come in till she restarts the phone and they all deliver at once.
Nothing you can do on your end besides telling Her to get a better carrier:)
 
One suggestion I give to people in the Uk where I reside is to visit their Network Store ,and ask them to perform a sim swap, which moves their Tariff and Mobile number from their original sim to a new one just incase its failing in some way.
