Hey guys~~ hopefully someone can help me with this ordeal.

WHAT HAPPENED: my cousin sent me a picture text message. it was taking too long to dload, so I did a soft reset (hold power button for 5 secs, and powered off and back on)

PROBLEM:Ever since i did that soft reset, which was like 2-3 days ago, I have been getting a text message from him. It is the same message and i get maybe one in every 2-3 hours or so.

what's going on? I went to the sprint store and they cleaned out my messages from explorer > windows > messages. We haven't done a hard reset yet because I want to save my contacts and everything...

what should i do?

ALSO: I get the sprint network #777 message once in awhile...it's pretty annoying..

It may not be your phone. It could be that his phone didn't send it the first time and is still 'pending' or something of that nature.

As far as the #777.....I'm not totally sure. I think I recall reading a post on it tho (not sure if it was here or in the TP forums), but a quick search may pull up an answer for you.

I had the same thing happen to me with me exes phone. We hard reset her phone, and it went away

If you want to double check, have them turn their phone off overnight, and see if you get it at all

^ i went to the sprint store today. They changed my connection settings from global to CDMA as it was global at default when i got the phone...im not sure if it that will fix the problem

but if it doesnt do, im going to tell my cousin to do a soft reset..
thanks for the input guys
