Can't Read Some SMS Messages
- Yeah I'm having the same problem. I'm not sure what's causing it. However, I've just found out that if you have a message you can't click on to open, you can "Compose" a new message to the same person and it will open it. Kinda a screwy way to get in and it's a definite waste of clicks, but it works to get to your unread texts that won't open.10-30-09 04:52 PMLike 0
- Just installed the new 5.0 OS from Verizon and havn't had that issue with text messages yet (I'm sure I will though)...
My issue is...can I change the settings so that when I open a text message group, the keyboard doesn't automatically appear. I want to have the full screen to read the message and then have the keyboard appear if I hit reply...
Any suggestions?

- That is brilliant! I'm going to do just that. The keyboard thing and the dimming are driving me batsh*t crazy. How did you even think of that?

- Ok this is now reached the point of aggregation. I can't read the first message in the sms list. I don't know why but it seems to happen every time I get a new sms. I also can not click on any internet links in any messages either email or text.

Its like they sent a blank txt but when I exit I can See a preview of the text but can't open it. This happened to me in .230 and .328. It happens sometimes but its so annoying.

It happens to me frequently and i haven't found out any solution to read it or anything, its very frustrating, did this happen to you on .323 or whatever the latest one besides the official release is? if so I will deff downgrade to that one.11-04-09 09:34 PMLike 0
- ive also been having these problems, the "fix" i use is to compose a message to that person, which opens up the thread
i still cant see the last message i got from them though (it shows up as a blank text, with no timestamp even though i can read a part of it in the preview)
this has only happened to me when a certain person texts me, so i thought it was their phone, but apparently its common place, so it cant be their phone11-04-09 10:02 PMLike 0 -
- If you are having this problem I have a question for you.... Are you running a custom theme? I have found that if I do not go through the steps of getting rid of the white bars in landscape that this is no longer a problem. It might have something to do with having a custom theme! Maybe!
**Forget it... That theory is dead... Seems like either RIM or Verizon droped the ball on this one... I thought Text was one of the basic functions of the phones now a days... I would assume they could fix a problem as simple as this soon!Last edited by AQucsaiJr; 11-05-09 at 08:22 AM. Reason: *Update
