Disable your iPhone iMessage if...

Since iOS5, Apple has added the iMessage to the iPhone capabilities. Idea is very good. Think WhatsApp but inbuilt into the iPhone. However, there is a problem if you are changing to a non-iPhone from an iOS5, like an Android phone for an example. Apple servers still think that you are using an iPhone, so it will send all iPhone SMSes to you as an iMessage, which you will never receive because you are no longer using an iPhone.

Solution? Disable your iPhone before you change to a non-iPhone. To do that, do the following:
  1. Tap on Settings > Messages
  2. Turn off your iMessage

That should be it. You have instructed Apple servers to NOT send any iMessage to you.
