Has this issue been resolved on any phones? 

Has anyone determined if Verizon is addressing this issue?  I hunted in the Verizon web site to submit a "ticket" but couldn't find a way to do it?  Does Verizon ever read and respond in these posts?

How can we change the "Topic" name to eliminate the "to any basic phone" words so that the "Topic" is more accurate?  It is misleading.

I have not had the issue resolved as of yet but I do have a support ticket open with Verizon. They told me on Friday that the network team is looking into this and they will get back to me in one week.

If you wish to open your own ticket you can do so here: http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/contact/index.jsp

Also, I saw on another community board where someone was able to send text messages by adding emoji characters to the message. I tested this and then my recipient did receive the text message. However, in some cases the entire message was not displayed. Emoji characters are defined as follows: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoji

Lastly, I did update the subject of this thread.

Just thought I would chime in. Sent my roomate a text from my 8X and it came across garbled. He has a very old LG flip phone. After fairly extensive use, he is the only one that has this problem although I havent tested this on any of my BB friends.

I think he should just get with the program and update his phone, lol. Its not a big deal in my situation, just annoying. Hope they get it fixed regardless.

This should be fixed now. I just tested it and no longer have the problem.

Looks like VZW changed something on their end.

Found this on another forum. Looks like it's been fixed. Can anyone with this issue confirm?

Yes, I just texted my mom's Brightside and it finally worked.. My brothers finally got rid of their Pres so I can't confirm that one.
