A text from an Alltel person is fine, I can read it. I called Alltel and they say there is nothing wrong on my line - it must be my phone. My husband and son are on my account, with different phone numbers - and they get texts from everyone else just fine.
So, this does lead me to believe it's JUST my phone not accepting non-Alltel texts - so WTH?? Alltel had be soft and hard boot - no help whatsoever. I've looked at every setting I can think of on this phone, and can NOT figure it out.
The only thing that had happened, right before it went haywire - my Motorola 850 Blue tooth won't link with this phone either - and my friend was trying to get it to work, and he'd gone on the internet on my phone to research online (not really sure what he was looking for) anyway, he said he couldn't find why it wouldn't link. 10 minutes later, I get my first text that is scrambled. I can not imagine what he could have done that made it start messing up though. Surely a hard boot would have erased any damage he MIGHT have done anyway.
So, I've looked online all day and found you guys, and you are my last hope!! Please someone tell me you know what the hell is wrong with my texting!!

not something ive seen or heard of before at my store in the service department.
Are you running the stock alltel ROM, and if so, is there an update available for you?
have you yet attempted a hard reset?
Is the memory on the handset full? (this causes a TON of weird problems)
Are you aware of the "cleartemp" programs (memmaid, cleartemp 093, etc) these will help free up memory... if its full that is.
Post back and lemme know, I may have some suggestions once we clear up the obvious. And while your here, we have some SWEEEET rom upgrades out there that are reported working 100% with alltel customers.
Sarid's is solid
Colonel is solid
mine of course
kevs clean & simple
this may be just the excuse your looking for to upgrade your phone hehe!
