If your iPhone can't send messages to Androids, it may be due to several reasons. First, ensure that SMS is enabled in Settings -> Messages. Also, confirm your carrier supports SMS/MMS. Check if the recipient's number is correct and has not been blocked. If messages still fail, try resetting network settings under Settings -> General -> Reset. For iMessage issues, turn off iMessage and use standard SMS/MMS for Android recipients.
