    You need to call VZW tech support. They can reset your text backbone.

    Did you send your Service Books?

    If not, you need to. Its the books that came with the phone.... package them up and send them.

    1. Get Box Phone came in.
    2. Open Box Phone Came in.
    3. Place Phone in Box.
    4. Call Verizon for return number.
    5. Call FedEx and schedule pick up.
    6. Go to ATT Store.
    7. Buy Go Phone
    8. Go Away.

    People here are trying to help you and you question everything they tell you to do. So just send the phone back get a GoPhone and get on with it.

    Plus posting a thread titled Help really doesn't help......

    My SMS Message Icon disappeared and it won't receive txt messages. Anyone know how to get it back?
    You said in another thread that you started about this that it happened after you reset your phone--how did you do that?

    wow! Folks here are really vicious! I mean a good laugh is all in fun but some of you really get off on this mean ****.

    OP, go here, https://bis.na.blackberry.com/html?brand=vzw and sign in. Create a new account if you've never done this.

    Once you have done this, on the left is a menu selection of service books. Hit is and resend your service books.

    This should really correct your problem. If not, you'll have to call up vzw techs.

    good luck and sorry for the fun folks have had at your expense.

    I don't know that it's as much about being mean and vicious as it is being frustrated. Speaking for myself, the very FIRST thing I do when I buy a new device is buy the book for it. Then I read it cover to cover, playing as I go. In this way, I learn the very BASICS of my phone(which it does not sound like the OP has done)

    It's very frustrating when someone says they have a problem and you pretty much have to start from "this is your phone"

    I agree that i hate to see people be rude to us newbies...
    but seriously...
    this guy asked "Im new to BB how do i do a batt pull"
    he couldnt figure out how to do a battery pull...
    THIS PHONE IS OBVIOUSLY WAY WAY WAY TOO COMPLICATED FOR THIS GUY!!!

    Any guesses on the age of the OP? I am guessing 13, parents bought him the phone, Dad told him it was too much phone for his needs but bought it anyway and now he can't go back and ask for help.
