When I send a bunch of things to someone and they don’t have service (i.e. on an airplane, in mountains, etc) what happens to all the data that’s been sent? They get everything all at once when they’re back in service, so is the data just like waiting in the network for the signal to be restored?

Not an expert on it but, your phone is constantly communicating with cell towers, I think it squawks like every 3 seconds or something. Every cellphone has 2 identifying numbers. The physical number burned into your phone, then your phone number. These two numbers together create your unique ID per say. I’m assuming it just sits in the tower or your phone keeps sending the signal until the receivers device finally starts communicating with the network.
Edit: grammar
