very basic text messaging question

[speck]

I am feeling pretty stupid right now - but I can't figure out how to send a text message from my Pro. On the 'messages ' tab, I've tried the menu 'new' and 'reply', I've tried clicking the 'new' icon in the upper right. I've tried 'send text message' from the contacts screen. NOTHING happens. What am I missing? I assumed I'd get a text input area, I tried opening the keyboard, both hardware and on-screen. Nothing.

I feel really, really dumb right now, but could someone tell my obviously defective brain what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

All of those methods should work fine... o_O

Soft reset and try again.

def very weird. if after the soft reset it still doesnt work, back up things you want and do a hard reset maybe?

Try the bottom left corner for all messages?

Thank you all SO MUCH! The soft reset did the trick. I had tried turning the phone off and on - I forgot about the reset button.

Thanks again!!
