    Have you tried doing a hard reset of the phone?
    So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
    of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
    about another group that actually does something
    to improve their lives.

    How do I do that?

    I've tried turning it off.
    Turning it off and taking the battery and SIM car out to no avail.

    What's the make and model? Your phone may not have a hard reset, but I'll look.

    BTW, a hard reset clears the non-volatile memory. I'll be like it was when you first got it.

    Samsung, T-Mobile, SGH-C225.

    Don't know if that helps you or not.

    I found the manual, here. Here are the instructions to reset your phone:

    Reset settings
    You can easily reset your phone to its default configuration. To
    do so, proceed as follows.

    1. Select the Reset settings menu option.
    2. Enter the 8-digit phone password and press the OK soft key.

    Note: The password is preset to “00000000”. To change this password,
    refer to “Change password” on page 85

    Keep in mind that this'll wipe your contacts!

    I hope this helps.

    I think I figured out the problem. Maybe.

    Earlier today when I would send a text. The phone would say "sms center" Than I could dial a number. In the manual it says that to use text messaging on this phone I need to know the SMS center number from my provider.

    ......

    That's a bit strange. This usually just works. But it that's what it is, call your provider to get it setup.

    I was reading online. People were talking about how when they put their SIM card into an older model phone texting wouldn't work. Maybe the SIM card from my new phone doesn't work in this old phone. But texting worked yesterday? Makes no sense to me. Im going to have to stop into the store in the next couple of days. Might at well just get a new phone all together.
