So I've now had my warranty replacement for about 3 weeks. Not only is the texting issue not fixed, this phone also will not vibrate and play a sound at the same time, has barely audible tones when using the dial pad, turns on wi-fi all on it's own and every other time I reset it it blinks roaming until I reset it again!!!!
I have started the phone in safe mode, still not vibrating or tones, wi-fi on and roaming triangle so it's not a third part app.I uninstalled one control app I thought might because causing the wi-fi is just to be safe. Still does it. I've turned on every place that says vibrate including the main phone settings and the setting in the stock texting app I'm using, still no vibrating.
I've just about had it with this phone. I did not turn in my other one so Verizon could send me one with three times the problems!!!!
Looks like I'll be calling Verizon yet again!
