Phone Not Sending Texts

[rdean]

Does anyone else have a problem where the phone won't send texts? Not all the time, but a good percentage.

Thanks

Do you use the stock messaging app or an aftermarket?

I've used both... The problem does not SEEM related to any app.

Sprint chat told me to send back the phone for exchange...

Before you send the phone back I have a question. Did you transfer old texts to your phone?

I had a similar issue when I got my Optimus. Texts would be continuously in the"sending" and never be sent. Once I deleted all of my old texts it worked fine. It's worth a try before exchanging your device.

No, I did not transfer old texts from my phone. In fact, there are very few texts even on my phone. I find it hard to believe the problem is with the phone, but who knows, right?

Is it always in the same location?

I.E. - at home - or at work - or location doesn't matter?

I work in a VERY earthquake proof building, which has reinforcements and
upgraded pillars / steel supports all over the place in the building.

When I am in the building, near the middle, I sometimes have problems sending texts.

I have to move closer to windows and re-send the text, then it will go through.

How's your signal strength?

I notice I have an issue sending texts when another text is received during the send 'window'. I'd say I have to re-send a text at least once a day.
