I can send and receive most text messages but I have 2 contacts that both have US cellular service that can receive my texts but I cannot receive theirs.

tjheslar, we don't want this to be a hit or miss text messaging matter. I recommend that you delete all unwanted text messaging threads on your device, update the network http://vz.to/ebETf6 and then power your phone off/on. Keep us posted.

Was there something you didn't understand in the link they gave or did the link not work?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

tjheslar,

Updating the network is a piece of cake! On your iPhone 4, go ahead and dial the number *228, choose option 2, and then restart your phone for a resync. Also, the link provided by Lasina in the previous post will assist you in resetting network settings.

The number *228 is not a valid number

Not applicable

*228 Send is a valid number for your device.

Select OPTION 2

And listen closely at the voice on the phone.

Good Luck
