Mortorola i855 Text messaging probs

Hi. I got my phone a week ago and I have been using it, but the text messaging won't work, The only time it worked was when I sent a message from my email address to the phone, and vise versa. My friends have tried texting me and I never got them, and every time I go and send a text, it says it went through, but it doesn't ever show up on their (friend's) phone. Is it the phone's problem, service, or Just Something I am doing wrong? Any Help would be Appreciated thank you!

    hello again, My phone text messaging just started working out of the blue, I had called boost mobile and had it reset at least 3 different times and it still wouldn't work so I don't know what made it start working but it works fine now.. Thanks.

    Took a couple days to get messages into the inbox, but now it just says "downloading". I can see who texts me but the message wont open. Maybe it will start working in a couple days or so, and the people at Boost never seem to know what they are talking about.

I've had this phone for about 5 months and it STILL screws up, not only on this, but also on VIP, Boost Prepaid Premium, etc. I had to send my first phone back.

I'd strongly suggest returning it to the store and buying something else if you can! I haven't been happy with either Boost Mobile OR Motorola!

My nokia 6790 wont send text messages what do i do

my phone has had this problem 5 times since i got it a year ago.. it would do everything except send texts, so i kept sending it to get fixed. i just got it back about a week ago after they finally "REPLACED" it, and its not sending texts again, BUT they'll send if the text is in a MMS format (multimedia)... i think your best bet is to chuck the phone and get a different one.

Make sure the text message is not locked. If it is, click on the message and unlock it. Try turning off your phone, too.

I855 text messaging

If this your motorola i855e is a Nextel phone, then not all the features will work very well if you put in a Boost Mobile sim card. Features like Texting, Web browsing are not likely to function very well or at all. Get a Boost phone for a Boost sim card. Cheers.

Boost mobile i855 restarts

it depends what service you have Nextel or Boost but either way have you tried a mater reset on it? If not go to settings, advance options, connectivity, master reset it's going to ask do you want to do the master reset hit yes, when it asks for a code by default the code is 000000 (six 0), than it says caution use manual just hit ok and it will turn itself off. you just turn it on and it should work from there if not call your cell phone provider and they can help you from there. I hope this helps

Text is stuck in my outbox

I had this same problem. Deleting and clicking "yes" at the warning screen would not remove the message from my outbox and the message kept resending for days.

Solution: In the Outbox, click "Menu" > Empty Deleted Items. Click "yes" at the warning. The message should now be gone from your outbox and your text buddy should now be able to regain sanity.

T-mobile credited back the resent text messages when I called them.

Using predictive text

no you can't put it in the dectionary instead you have to change the settings "iTAP english" to "TAP english"
to change it while you are creating a message select options go to text setup then change the primary text to "TAP english"



peace!
