From the darkness to the light - hi guys and gals!

[PFGraham]

Longggggg time Palm owner - all the way back to the beginning actually.

Once HP kicked me while I was down, I've finally come to the realization it's over, sadly, I rode that horse WAY past it's prime (it's glue now).

So, here I am with my brand spanking new Galaxy S III - AND I LOVE IT!

I got the international one in white - 32GB (I think).

Huge learning curve but loving almost everything about this amazing little computer.

I'm having one HUGE problem that I'll post here and as a stand alone problem: I can't download any pictures that are sent to me from text messaging. Nor can I upload and send any pictures with text.

When I hit download, it says it's downloading but does nothing.

And when I try to send a picture, it just spins and spins.

Welcome to AC!!

How are you sending the pics? Through the stock text messaging app? Try clearing cache from the text messaging app. Settings >> Manage apps >> Text Messaging >> Clear Cache. I'd say Clear Data as well, as, that is more likely to solve a problem then just cache, but, it'd most likely remove any texts you have stored on your phone. So, if that's not an issue, you can try clearing that as well.

Thanks for your suggestion - I followed your advice but once I get to my Active apps then go into Messaging, there isn't an option to clear cache or data.

The only option I have is to Stop the TransactionService.

I'm running Android version 4.0.4.
