Just buy a new phone because you have clearly wasted your money....That phone will completely die in less than 6 months. Sorry sweetie

Sorry, but I have no idea because that cell was not for me to use; it was a gift for a person who's in anothercountry.

Hello Katina, I'm sorry to hear that. I never used the phone, because It came to me broken. I'm sorry my English, it is not very good.

I have the same problem with an ATT phone. I had to download a messaging app in order to send or receive pictures. Very frustrating. Also, my phone won't vibrate when I get a call or text. It's either on loud or silent.

honestly, I had to return the phone because of several malfunctions. I couldn't receive picture messaging and I couldn't read my emails.

I use AT@T and it works fine except that I cannot send or receive photos or group messages through text. I have been trying to figure out the issue with AT&T; and HTC for the past several months but nothing we try has corrected the problem. I really like the phone other than this particular problem.

That's not a good choice, I'm having a lot of troubles with my internet and of course I cannot receive or send any picture (media text), I'm not happy with it!

I have never sent a text message. However, the menu has an option for something called sms. Under that option is a selection for new message.

Check to make sure what size the pictute is and what format its being saved as. The size and format make the difference when u want to send and recieve. Go to the settings for the camera and choose the largest option (always the last one on the list) then retry. You can contact tech support through at

Yes, there are two types of alerts. App notifications and email. You may be able to use email to SMS if your carrier provides it. Pictures come through, but the text shows up in HTML. http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/how-to-send-e-mail-to-sms-text/

Not sure if works like a smart phone with the messages. If i get three at same time i answer one it goes to top then answer next one it is now on top. Is that what it its doing? Have you powered device off for 30 seconds then turn back on? Does that fix it?

this is a basic android phone. like the first one that ever came out the only difference is that now it's made big and fancy. so I would say no. I had t mobile and I couldn't get pic messages either.

you need to free some memory space on your phone. you can do so by deleting old messages (i.e. whatsapp and text), or delete some unwanted pics in your galary or uninstall apps that you rearly use.

It could be your internet connection or the app. Haven't used the app alot but it could need an update.

There is a little round button on the back with a triangle shape pointing to the right. Hit that and scroll your pics. Make sure your dial on top is set Auto. Hope that helps.
