Thunderbolt will not receive txt messages

[outinnavy]

I can send messages but can not revive any I am on 1x when I travel 80 miles east to a 3g network I receive them all at once. This is not only my phone my cousin has same phone and same problem my wife has same phone and hers works just fine

this happened to me one day last week. i realized i hadn't recieved any texts for about 12 hours so i called my wife and best friend and sure enough they had sent a few (and acknowledged that they had recieved all of mine). i turned it off and back on and have been recieving them ever since then. not sure why it happened, but when i rebooted it, it starting working fine again???

no this does not work i have tried pulling the battery restarting phone a hundred times nothing works till i cross back into a 3g aera and they come thur

do they eventually come through? mine never did. i have no idea how many texts i missed when i wasn't recieving them.

I assume that all come thru when I pass into a 3g network area my phone goes crazy with them 70-80 txt sometimes

 the problem is I live in a 1x area  in Bloomington, MD  and its hour or so drive to get to 3g

 my droid x worked just fine here

my problem was that for that day, i didn't get them at all, so i still have no idea how many i missed.

I recommend checking your text messaging settings. I have listed steps below for your convenience:

1. From the Home screen, select the applications tab (lower-left corner).
   
   
2. Select Messages.
   
   
3. Select Menu.
   
   
4. Select Settings.
   
   
5. From the SMS settings and MMS settings sections, select Delivery reports.
   Enabled when a green check mark is present.

Not just inable to recieve , but sometimes (at night) I can't even send text messages and an error code shows up. Strangely, I can call and signal strenght is full.

The problem with not recieving almost caused me a domestic dispute.
