I Can’t Send or Receive Text Messages

Make sure your phone is on (see “Turning Your Phone On and Off” on page 35).

Contact Sprint to verify that your plan includes messaging services, that these services
have been correctly activated, and that they are available at your location (Sprint should
be able to tell you if messaging services have been experiencing transmission delays).

If possible, contact the recipient of the message, and make sure the receiving device can
handle the type of message you’re sending.

If a text message arrives but does not display a notification, perform a soft reset
(see “Performing a Soft Reset” on page 349).

If your company uses Microsoft System Center Mobile Device Manager, contact your
system administrator to find out whether messaging features are disabled on your Treo.
