I can’t send sms messages. Seems like whenever a new phone comes out, mine stops working properly.

How can I get my iPhone to send sms messages. It just stopped all of a sudden.

A real SMS, the kind you use with non-iOS users, is a carrier feature and they have to troubleshoot it. SMS requires that you have a SMS plan on your account and that you have cellular data turned on for your iPhone. That is all you can do about SMS on the iPhone, the rest is up to the carrier.
