Text Messaging WOES
Read a few posts about this, and it seems to be happening to me too...

Not receiving texts, getting them hours later and its really annoying and frustrating. Any ideas on a fix? If I call sprint what do I tell them?

[I don't want to master reset!]

Re: Text Messaging WOES
You can try to update your Slot Cycle Index via EPST (more info in this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42730). This will increase the rate your phone will poll the cell towers for calls/text. I heard there's a slight battery decrease, but I haven't seen much difference.

Also, I read somewhere that Sprint advised people with text delays to soft reset their phones nightly, if not at least four times a week. Given the nature of WM phones, soft resetting frequently is a good habit anyway.
