Re No it does'tnt!!: Galaxy A01 can't send texts but have internet Hi B Diddy, No it doesn't !! So I cleaned the cache and data from both then removed BOTH of the messaging programs, restarted when in Safe Mode and reinstalled the OEM app. I never expected to see the OEM one still installed...

You make a valid point, I tend to forget the location(s) it was designed to work in. Plus in our area the carrier is going to kill 4G (which we know the phone never showed when connected. I may do some ebay shopping and hopeful end up with one that works in teh USA. The local Metro folks...

What does the attached message mean when using "Messenger" or any SMS app? ERROR: java.util.nosuchelement.exception:list is empty Sorry attachment would allow me to include it. This appears each time I use the text app to read or send a text of any size new app didnt cure problem. Clearing...

Great stuff, I am off to get a SIM. Thanks as always

Correct only one. Seee screenshot of circle icon and full bars of signal strength . Tnx 25544

Laura & Mustag B Diddy et al , thanks I will try to get a new SIM I will be amazed if they GIVE me anything but a hard time <sigh> I always thought the number of bars was strength of signal to the device. In my case, I have all the bars with the circle too .... go figure. I'd send a...

Can someone tell me what the CIRCLE Icon with the slash mark means, in my status bar? Seems like nothing I can do will make it go off. It's not related to the volume setting as I have read It isn't airplane mode or do not interrupt... Seems like my inability to do anything with the phone...

Maybe a hard reset is in my future?? Regards 25544

Re: Galaxy A01 can't send texts but have internet now it's the reverse Thanks a lot sorry for delay in replying to you. Today the phone started acting up.. IE now I can gets texts but can't call out except to my wife's phone! Oh yes I can't get calls either! the APN I tried to to make ended...

smvim Before I hose the phone....please tell me I am using the APN settings for the USA on page : https://www.apnsettingsandroid.com/2022/05/sti-mobile-apn-settings-for-android.html There are many that say Not Set ... take that literally and just let it go ' not set" ? And where does the...

Yes but it only shows it as 2G/3G or each one separately, NO 4G choice at all A015M/DS (mine) If I remember I got in online from Ebay I had a sim from a core prime and I think i used that one but maybe not. NB: When it was setting it up I thought it was odd that the Microsoft app name was in...

The ones that came with the phone are what we are using. Doubt that Metro would hand me 2 new ones. Seems that most of the employees are pissy to deal with in person, dunno how they stay in business imho. Ones you get tech support have been great. Obviously I'd have never thought to question...

Well similar to what I have, in most respects. Odd thing is the device is supposed to be 4G, but it only shows me 2G/3G as choices.. wife's phone show the same. Ads I see bill the phone as 4G. Another call to tech support had them somehow,'reset the network connection' I can send and get texts...

I spent an hour with Metro customer service/tech support to no avail, trying to solve the 'no text' trouble. I can create texts but when I send them it tells me "we will send your message when the service is available" then it just sits there doing nothing. Yesterday I did a hard reset and...
