If you're stating that you are not hearing any alert sounds when you receive iMessages or SMS messages, check the following:
1. Check the mute switch on the side of the device.
2. Make sure that the Do Not Disturb option isn't enabled.
3. Check the volume button and / or volume slider.
4. Go to Settings->Sounds, and then make sure that there is an alert tone listed next to "Text Tone".
5. Go to Settings->Notifications→ Messages, and enable ALL of the toggles therein.
