Is anyone having problems with your text messages going to the wrong recipient? Or when you get a message does it look like it's coming from the last person you were texting, instead of the person acutally texting? This has only been happening since the update. Any suggestions or anyone else having the same problem?

Texting the wrong person isn't very fun. I have searched your issue, and I have not found any customers who have similar issues. There could be a couple of issues that could cause this though. 1) Are you using any 3rd party texting applications such as Ha...

This is still a major issue....as recent as last night. All of the latest updates have been installed. All messages had been deleted. Had not texted anyone else in 3 hours. Was in a text conversation with my daughter only. Received a call this morning from the friend I was texting hours before my daughter, wanting to know what the strange text she received was about. This is completely unacceptable. I've only had this phone since February or March. Can't afford to upgrade, as I would have to pay full price for another phone. Do not want to upgrade on another line because I don't want to pay for 2 smartphone plans, and definitely do not want to be in yet another 2 yr contract with Verizon. Something needs to be done. Either Verizon or Samsung needs to step up and help all the consumers that are having these continuous problems.

diane1-It seems as though you are pretty upset about the messaging on your Fascinate (as well you should be).I'd also like to know if you installed the latest software that became available 7/28/11 to correct the issue you have been experiencing.I also was having problems with messaging on my Fascinate as far as it showing the incorrect recipient, however since the update, it has been working smoothly for me. http://support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/samsung_fascinate_instructions.pdf <<<How to Update the Software http://support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/samsung_fascinate.pdf <<<Benefits of the Software Update Please let me know if you already have the most recent version on your Fascinate.

Hi Diane1, I definitely understand your frustration with the Samsung Fascinate. I do want to let you know that the issues you are experiencing have been lifted to the product support team with Samsung, since they are the manufacturer of the device. I assure you that we are working on a resolution with Samsung so you will no longer experience these issues. There is no set time of resolution,however, since we are waiting on a fix from Samsung. I know that this is something that you do not want to hear, but I want to be honest with you. Your posting also mentioned that you have other issues with Verizon Wireless. Please let us know what these issues are, so we can address them for you. We will do all we can for you, and we would like the opportunity to change your mind. Thanks very much and have a good day!

Hi Lilrascalga, I have checked my references for the Droid 2 and I am not showing that there is a known issue with the Droid 2 sending messages to the wrong person. I assure you that I am not doubting your word. I do have a suggestion for you. As a workaround, you have the option of using a 3rd-party application from the Android Market to alleviate the problem with messages going to the wrong person. Go to Market>Search> SMS. Does this happen with all messages? Do you notice if this is happening with a certain number, or maybe only numbers from a specific wireless provider?Are you receiving messages with no problem? Please post back with your findings. Thanks and have a good day!

...thank u zorbs99....its a sham how it has to come down to this....

..i dont care about "google" and im changing carriers b/c i have had MORE then this problem with "Verizon" in general! Thats how it applies!! LOL

Go to your local small claims court and file a complaint. Thats what I am doing tomorow. I have a samsung galaxy that just plain SUCKS. You have nothing to lose by doing it.

Since it is a Google issue, and you are using a Samsung phone I don't see how changing carriers applies LOL

Sorry, I see where this is under a Samsung thread, I'll repost under a more appropriate thread although this just reinforces that the problem is not manufacturer specific.
