    Texting issue on Cricket with LG G3

    The saga continues. I reset my wife's apn settings to have the hostname instead of one of the IP addresses that the host name resolved to. She received a flood of text messages from her group of friends. However, they all came in as individual texts and none of them downloaded. Tapping on...

    Texting issue on Cricket with LG G3

    Whelp, heard back from Billy at Cricket. Not sure it's going to be much help to a Verizon phone, but here's what they think the issue is: Our IT team has located the issue. Jeff spoke with your wife to explain what was going on which is that the T-Mobile visual voicemail app is interfering...

    Texting issue on Cricket with LG G3

    I've rooted and ROM'd my phone, but had issues with bluetooth so that was a non-starter for me. I didn't have it running in that mode long enough to see if the text messaging issue came back. I may try it again if this texting issue resurfaces. I have to believe there's something going on...

    Texting issue on Cricket with LG G3

    I can't imagine both SIMs being/going bad. The fact that we both have the same exact phone and have the same exact problem makes me think it's an issue with the T-Mobile variant of the G3. Hate to have to pick up a new phone just to test this theory.

    Texting issue on Cricket with LG G3

    Have not requested a new SIM. I really think it's the APN setting for the MMS Proxy, but haven't been able to confirm it. And how can my wife and I be the only ones afflicted by this problem. Seems like it would be widespread and Cricket would go out of business.

    Texting issue on Cricket with LG G3

    My wife and I both have an unlocked LG G3 (T-Mobile variant) and have it set up on Cricket Wireless. We've been having this weird issue where text messages won't send/receive and the only thing that will fix the problem is to make a phone call. I've contacted cricket several times and they've...

    Zenfone 2 or Blu Pure XL

    Great photos, but nothing is moving (kids, dogs, etc) and the lighting is perfect (not in a bar or at night). I'm not too worried about the camera on the zenfone (it can't be worse than my Note), more about the bloatware mentioned earlier. $350 is a lot to pay for a phone with questionable...

    Zenfone 2 or Blu Pure XL

    I'm getting ready to leave Verizon wireless for Cricket and I don't want to spend a ton of cash on a flagship. I currently have the Note 2 on verizon, so I want a similarly sized phone with a better camera. The camera on the Note 2 is terrible. I don't think i've ever been able to get a...
