As of yesterday I haven't been able to send any texts. This has happened in the past with one person at a time, but now I can't send any at all. Receiving is fine, calls, data (3G and 4G), all that still work, just sending text is the problem.
- I've restarted, gone in/ out of airplane mode multiple times and nothing has worked
- I use GO SMS Pro, but they don't send in stock Messages either. I have cleared GO SMS's data, re installed, etc
- Running stock 2.2.1 (installed OTA), no root or the unofficial Gingerbread update
- In downtown Atlanta, so signal strength isn't the issue
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! I don't want to deal with Verizon and am hoping I don't need to factory reset
I have had the same problem on two different 4g phones. The first was the thunderbolt and after three weeks of tech support tries and no solution and no help from big red I booght a 3G only phone at retail and had no more problems. Thinking it was just a thunderbolt issue I bought a bionic at retail and had the same problem. Every data connection worked except being able to send texts. Verizon tech support responded rapidly to tuis being the bionic and their brand new baby. I was told that it was a tower issue in the area that I was trying to send texts from. I should have stated that this issue only came up in a 4g area. When I was in 3G it worked fine. Anyway because it was a 4g extended area and a tower issue there was nothing they could do. Returned the phone and although I was charged the restocking fee tech support credited my account for the amount.
