Problem/Questions

I have the HTC Touch Pro, I love the phone, but I'm starting to get pissed off. My text messages are getting delayed by hours, minutes, every half an hour or sometimes I don't even get them. I noticed my friend tried to call multiple times and it didn't even go through on my end. This is really pissing me off and Sprint isn't doing a thing about it. Making me want to switch to some other company.

Anyways my problem is that and I've noticed that my "Data Connection" under the manager thing keeps getting turned off. I think that has to do with getting picture mail, because it seems I only get picture mail when it's turned on. but for some reason it keeps turning it's self off. Is there a way to keep it on?

Edit: Hell it was my 21st Birthday Saturday and everything got messed up because I couldn't get my phone calls and some of my text messages. Nice huh?
Here is one of the delayed text messages.
Me - 10:53 PM
Them - 9:58 PM
Me - 11:09 PM
Them - 10:10 PM
Me - 11:13 PM
Then it started to be just fine. It does this a lot and there excuse is there is to much information being sent at once. Um I don't think hours and hours will do that. Seriously I need help, because it ****s up a lot of things.

No, this started happening every since the first day I got it. I tried to do a flash with a custom rom to hope it would change, but I couldn't even flash one. :/
I only have the Keyboard Light mod and no sent text message mod.
I've actually hard reset my phone multiple times and called the **** out of Sprint to have them fix it, but they can't do ****.

I haven't tried re-activating it and they say my coverage is the best area, but not sure if that's just bull**** to keep me. I've done a hard reset, well doing the "Clear Storage" thing.

I've been getting this lately too
Cannont Connect
Dialed:#777
Canont connect for an unknown reason. To check your connectiong settings and change them if needed, tap Settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacturer's documentation and try again.

I've reset my phone so many times, I even had a guy get into my settings over the phone. The Data Connection just turned it's self off AGAIN. I never really had this bad of a problem with my Samsung Blade A900, but it's way outdated and old.

Re: Problem/Questions

I'd just demand a new phone. It sounds like the data connection is failing. I'd bring it to a Sprint repair center and see what they say. You can only get so far over the phone.

I would definately say flash the newest sprint rom. It will flash without having to Hard SPL. You can find it in the end all kill all link in my sig for touch pro. Try that and see what happens.

Brand new from where though? Dont just flash a rom, take the phone back. If you cant do that, take it to a Sprint REPAIR store. They can either fix or authorize a replacement phone even if you bought it from Best Buy, however i think you need to be outside the sellers return policy timeline.

What's Hard SPL? I tried to flash a rom and I couldn't do it, then I went to do it again and JD deleted his.

Edit:I only want a few things on mine. I don't see the new sprints rom and JD's I was trying to Flash, but he deleted the download.

All I use is:
Text Messaging
Picture Mail
Google Maps
Opera
Calulater
Flipout Keyboard (I hate the touch keyboard and want to disable it)
Contacts
Alarm (work purpose)
Call History
Camera
Camcorder

That's all I actually use.

E-Bay and I can't flash a rom, to stupid I guess. I actually just got back from Sprint the store and I took it to the repair people. All the guy did was a Hard Reset (not the clear storage part). He said that everything looks fine, the only reason my text messages would be delayed is because of the TV or Weather updating. Even though I never have anything running, I always hit the X and end programs. I don't use the weather or TV ****. So I don't know, I think it's bull****. I was talking about mods and flashing, he does it too, but he had to make sure I didn't. I told him I had two mods, the keyboard light and the no sent text message. He did sugest I remove the Weather and TV, I forgot the word he said.

I also asked him if my phone could be defective and he was like nope. He also asked where I would be getting the roms and ****, I told him about this website and he didn't say anything after that, like it was a good thing.

Edit: What does the 1k and 0k mean in the text messaging? I forgot to ask the guy why my Data Connection kept turning off. After all these years with Sprint, I'm now having problems. Oh I want to disable Recently Opened Programs too
