Hhi

Just wondering if anyone has come across this before

I've got an iphone 5 on the latest ios7 update

If my best mate texts me it's blue for imessage, if I reply it goes as imessage

If he starts a new thread, it's blue and comes through as an imessage, but whenever I go to send him a new text, when I type his name and his number appears in the list, it shows green and the send doesn't change from blue

What do I do to fix it, it's been like this since ios6, even tested it by sitting in the same room with full signal on both phones and still the same

thanks in advance

I think i've found the problem already, i have his email and mobile number against his contact

I took out the email address, now it shows all imessages coming from his email address in the messages list, rather than his number

I think

If he is sending from an iPad or iPod Touch or Mac and doesn't own an iPhone then this is all you can do. If he owns an iPhone and links it to the same Apple ID then he can choose to send either as the phone number or the email address.
