BB Torch :: Sent Text Messages Received Blank Or With Boxes Instead Of Letters
Nov 15, 2011
For about a month now , my phone has been having problems sending text messages. Some people receive them just fine, some people receive boxes instead of letters, and some people receive blank messages. Sometimes people just don't get anything. My phone registers that they have sent, but they never receive the message. I have also tried restarting my phone and taking out the battery many times.
I have a problem with text messages - when someone sends me a message in Russian, I get blank "highlighted" lines instead of the letters. I can see commas and smileys but not the actual text.When I go to language setup, Russian is not listed. I have tried "Automatic" and "English" with the same results.I have done a master reset, same behavior.The thing is, I LOVE the V551 phone. I also have an iPhone I use for business, photos, music, etc., but the V551 is my 2nd personal phone and I've used one since 2003. I love it so much, I recently found a brand new one for sale on eBay and ordered it. This is the one where I am having this problem - the brand new "old" Motorola V551.
My torch has just started randomly transposing the letters in the word 'go' when I'm typing text messages. So every time I put 'go', it changes it to 'og'. Which is a bit of a nuisance!Anyone got any idea what's happened and how I can rectify it?
First time for me on this site and the first time for me with a Blackberry Torch (was and IPhone user) preview text messages when received and the screen is locked?
is there any way for the 8330 to allow more letters when you text someone than 160? or do i have to cut short and sent a second text message. its really annoying and time consuming.
So, I just had to update my phone & I absolutely hate all the changes. For once, when I open up a text message & begin to reply, I always have to hit the letter key twice before it actually appears in the message box. If not, the first letter I type is always left out.
Just recently I have had some problems sending normal text messages..The problem is when I want to send a text I go to my contacts and try to send a sms message, but instead of opening up a conversation window I get taken straight to my recieved messages... I havent had a problem replying to messages after people have texted me, its iniating the converstation thats not working.
Most of the text messages i send work fine, but about 10% are never recieved/ will be received days later. I know it's a problem with my phone, not the people i'm sending them to, as it's happened with more than one person on different networks. My phone is on Orange and has the latest software update too?
My wife just bought an LG G3, finally upgrading her LG Optimus T. She was having the same issue on her old phone, which is what prompted her to give the thing a decent burial.
The problem is that she's intermittently receiving texts 12 hours or more after they're sent. She's seldom anywhere that there's no signal & her old phone only recently started exhibiting these symptoms.
Her SIM card was upgraded when she got the new phone & I installed and formatted an older Class 10 32 GB SDHC card from my S4 after I replaced it with a 64 GB card.
When I receive pictures via text message, i get 2 options, one to open with gallery, or with google photos.... when i open with gallery, the pictures a tiny as hell, and i cant zoom in on them and when i open with google photos they are blurry.
I got it to work once before but i sure don't remember how. I open the pictures with the stock messaging app, handcent, and 8sms and its all the same....
Everything else is working fine but all day I've had issues texting and making/receiving calls. I've done a soft reset at least 10 times. Will let me then do about 2 texts, then it goes back to sending error. Every time I try to make a call it doesn't even ring, just goes to call fail.
why do text messages from other family members being received on multiple iphone 4's. Also, on an itouch device? How do you eliminate this from happening?
im having a problem with sending text sms messages. When isend these messages i get a check mark showing they have been sent. Why should i assume otherwise? And then i hear from multiple people that they received them at 4am or the next day or even just 30 minutes later and out of order. I even tested this with a friend sitting side by side. Out of 3 text messages sent, he only got the 2nd one and didnt receive any of the others. I read on another forum that it might be because my sim card might be old? Is this the knly possible explanation? It is probably at least 4-5 yrs old since i just get new phones but keep my sim card.
When I send my husband a text to his BlackBerry Style from my EVO he gets it so he knows I've sent him something but it comes up as a blank screen, No Text, he can't see it. He doesn't have this issue with any other person. Nor do I ever have an issue with my texts not showing up for anyone else. Is there some compatibility problem between EVO/BlackBerry?
I am wondering if others are having the same issue. Sometimes when I receive a text message on my MA it is completely blank. They are even plain text messages. Let me explain. I have received text messages with special characters in the message and the MA displays a "?" where those characters are. When I receive a message that contains a picture those do not get sent to the MA (and I am more then okay with that). But for some reason when I get certain text messages the display shows up all white and I am unable to see anything when trying to open the message on the MA. I can't even delete it.
Phone: Motorola DROID X Running 2.3.3 with System Version 4.5.605.MB810
MA: System Version 4.55.76
EDIT: I have upgraded to the latest version of the OS for the MA and now get some feedback saying that a message could not be synced but I still wonder why some are able to be synced while others cannot be.
In the last week, I began receiving text messages from my friends that are being sent from their "gmail" address. Therefore, it seems to replace the other contact that I had in the phone.
My N8 is no longer showing the image under the text in received mms messages. Now I have to chose objects in an mms to see the image.Has anybody else experienced the same thing after updating to Symbian Anna?
In my message threads, for any messages I have sent it gives the time of the text message in the bottom right of the message. However for any that I have received it only gives the date.
Not the end of the world I know but can be handy to have the time.Is this something that is possible or do I just have to live with it?
Sometimes I get blank SMS messags there's no address or text. I have the Sprint 8330. Just was wondering if there's anyway to prevent that or what. Still a rookie with one. My pin is 30E9758E please fill free to add me.
I keep getting texts from the following number 07800002015 it appears that this number is replacing the number the text was actually sent from. I am using vodaphone business account, anything i can do to stop this?
I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this on their BIONIC.
I have vibrate on text message receipt turned on. My phone will vibrate indicating I have received a message but there is nothing in the notification bar or in the list of text messages. I know that it is a failure to receive because I often text people asking them if they just texted me and I almost always find who it was. They resend and I get it. I can't seem to find a trend as to what the root cause may be. Is this a known issue that is expected to get addressed in one of the upcoming patches or do I need to report it to Motorola to look into?
I'm running .419 and I have threaded text, this morning my texts started coming in blank, i could type and send fine, but my received would not show up even after deleting the entire conversation with the person.
I can receive text messages from any sender and get the message just fine and able to read fully. One sender's messages are all blank. I receive the message and my phone acts like I have one, but all the words are gone. And this sender is the person I text and talk the most to. I pulled the battery and that didn't help.
