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.
View 2 RepliesSometime in the last week, a post was made asking how to prevent an unwanted person from contacting her via SMS messaging. She can block his phone number directly, and/or just not answer "unknown caller" attempts. (could just direct those to a silent ring/disconnect)
I was browsing aimlessly thru the internet and just came across this blurb:
(*Text blocking not available on Android 4.4/KitKat) found it here: [URL] ....
and this blurb: • Starting from Android 4.4, Google has revoked SMS/MMS permissions from developers. Due to that fact, LINE whoscall will not be able to block SMS/MMS for Android versions 4.4 and above. Call blocking feature is not affected.
If that is actually true, as of today we have no way to block unwanted SMS messages.
I was reading all of the info on different Caller ID apps to see if any of them are worthwhile.
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?
View 1 Replies View Relatedis 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.
View 10 Replies View RelatedFor 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.

Am I the only Droid 2 who is sending double txt messages? And I think it know why its been doing it on the two phones I've used. If you start a message with the touch screen, you get lazy and open the keyboard and finish the message. Close the screen after you click send. 75% of the time you will send a double text message.
View 3 Replies View RelatedPearl 9100 - some keys, particularly the top row return a double character even if lightly pressed once. For example, if I press the E1R key, it sometimes returns e and r (even if I am really careful). The space bar sometimes also results in a period even though I've been careful not to double press.
This is a new problem not experienced before. It is particularly frustrating when trying to input the password to unlock the screen because the attempt often results in an error.
I have re-booted the device (battery out) and it seems to fix the problem for a moment, but the problem quickly returns.
I have also set the Key Rate to 'Medium Fast' and 'Slow', but with no apparent improvement.
Firmware package Package Version: 5.0.0.1083 is installed (current for Telstra) and there are only a few third party apps (Google Maps v 4.52); Virgin Blue Travel Application; Telstra's My Place; and Sensis Whereis Navigator.
My Curve's keyboard has suddenly started to malfunction, some letters double or triple up. This is especially problomatic when typing in a password or texting. The keys also seem to have a slow response time. Especially the backspace button which i have to click multiple times to get to delete things. And it seems random for which letters it doubles up, but this problem has been happening for the past 4 days.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 2 Replies View Relatedim 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.

For a while now I can only view text messages from the "message" icon on my phone. I used to be able to view 2 different email accounts. The only way I can see my emails now is from the little window just below where the time is displayed.
How do I get incoming text messages to show the date they were sent in the conversation boxes, rather than just the time ? If I haven't seen my texts for a couple of days it's confusing as they only display a time, I've looked everywhere but can't find a setting for it.

Unlike most people who were looking forward to it, I was dreading this Hangouts/SMS merger.
One of the things I have not been able to figure out is how to search within my SMS messages. The old SMS app did this easily at the push of one on screen button.
Is this no longer a feature or am I just not looking in the right place?
Is there any way to get the 5230 to display the letters of the alphabet on the numberpad?i.e.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just switched to the Galaxy S5 from the iPhone 5, so I am still trying to learn the new format.
First: I know how to get text message previews to show up, however, is there a way to get the text message on the lock screen to show the name, but not the full message? Right now I can either get the name and the full message on the lock screen or just "new message".
Second: Is there a way to transfer all my iTunes music onto the S5 so I don't lose it?
I upgraded the operating system for my S-5. Besides hating the multi window interface, it drains my battery in about 6 hours.
