Re: repeating txt messages

Hello. On my Samsung Note 3 you can add numbers to a spam list which will block further messages.
Message app - menu - More - Spam settings.

Re: repeating txt messages

What kind of message? SMS, system error message, carrier message?

An SMS is not related to your phone but to your SIM card, so a factory reset is not going to stop that.

Some carriers push marketing messages that pop up now and then. I had this problem once. The only way to stop that was calling the carrier company and telling them that I was going to cancel my number if the messages didn't stop popping up all the time. It worked!
