Text messaging problem. Please help.

Do you receive incoming calls or do you find callers go direct to voice mail even when your phone is on? I had the same text message problem you describe. It mostly occurred when I was roaming. I also had a problem with incoming calls not being received and I wouldn't get voice mail notifications until I made an outgoing call.

I unlocked the phone a tried several different roms and changed settings but nothing really helped until I flashed the Verizon radio (link is in my sig). The phone works perfectly now. I'm still on sprint by the way. The radio doesn't force it to roam or to prefer Verizon towers.

I do not receive incoming calls. On the callers end, it rings like my phone is on but my phone does not ring.

What do you mean by flashing the verizon radio? What does that do?
