Droid Pro - Error/Activity Messages

When texting today I keep receiving the following activity message:

SORRY!

Activity Text Messaging (in application Text Messaging) is not responding. Force Close Wait

I have also received similar messages lately while playing games, searching contacts, trying to get back to the home screen etc. The message will then change from Text Messaging to Contacts or games, etc.

Also while texting the phone is freezing/locking up - my spell check then gets stuck on the bottom of my screen. Then the activity message comes back and the phone freezes.

Please help!!

Thanks!!!

We have exactly the same problem with our Droid Pro. We replaced our first, thinking it might be a HW issue, and it worked great for a few weeks. Now, it has started again. Very frustrating and disappointing.

dawnmarie0129 and community, this is definitely an issue that you should not have to deal with. Text messaging is an important function on a mobile phone, so I understand your concern. Try going to application settings and clear multi-touch data. This worked for some customers while were working on a permanent fix. I also recommend clearing the data for the keyboard in Settings > Applications > All.

If you continue to have issues the last suggestion would be to perform a factory reset. I have listed the steps below:

Note: Performing a hard reset will remove ALL data including the Google account, system data, application data, application settings, and downloaded applications.

From the home screen, select the App menu.multitouch
Select Settings.
If the application icon is missing, select App menu filter (located at the top) then select All apps.
Select Privacy.
From the Personal data section, select Factory Data Reset.
Select Reset phone.
If presented, enter the current passcode or draw the unlock pattern.
Select Erase Everything.
Allow up to 3 minutes for the factory data reset and reboot processes to complete.
Perform initial activation.

I cannot seem to figure out how to do any of the things you've listed above. My Droid Pro has also been acting up for days. It freezes constantly and I get the same error message when trying to text. (Activity Text Messaging (in application Text Messaging) is not responding. Force Close Wait)

This morning we had snow on my way to work and there were accidents everywhere. I was stuck in a line of traffic and I tried to call my work but my phone kept freezing up and I had to power it down and wait for it to reboot. This is very frustrating and I am willing to do any of the things listed above, but I can't seem to find them on my phone. (I am not very techy.)

I can find something that says multi-touch data under applications but nothing that prompts me to clear it. When I go to settings then apllications, I do not see anything that says "All" either.

Even with doing a system reset, none of the above are options that I have found in my phone. Do you have any other suggestions? I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Please help! Thank you!
