Cant hang up phone due to Text messages

So frustrating.
Are you ever on the phone awhile and someone (or some people) decide to text you 3 or 4 times? Then the phone call ends, and you're trying to press the "End Call" button, but you can't, because there's a text message, forcing you to hit "Close or Reply" ?
And then you hit "Close" but another one pops up, because there were 3 others?
So you hit "Close" on that one as well.
Then another one pops up!
Meanwhile the person you're on the phone with - if they're in an office - with you on speaker - they're waiting for you to disconnect the call - wondering why you haven't hung up yet.
So you hit "Close" on that popup, and ANOTHER ONE pops up, and ... still you can't END the call. 20 seconds after the end of the call, you are able to press "End Call".
Text messages really should not dominate the user interface like that during a phone call. Is there any way around this?

Yep been there, It would be nice to have them just put a red circle on text icon on the home screen . Just like mail.
Is there any need to reply to a text msg when you are still on the dog and bone

A few months back I Dropped my iPhone 4 and I cracked my screen and now i cant unlock my phone due to touch screen not working plus there are blurred lines across the screen and I can't see anything that it displays.
Now when I try too connect my iPhone 4 to iTunes on my computer at home an error message comes up saying that I have to unlock my iPhone 4 for it to communicate to my device.
But the problem is that I can't unlock my iPhone 4 because I'm unable to see the key pad and my touch screen no longer responds when I touch it.
I just want to reset my iPhone 4 back to its Factory Settings & start all over from the beginning.
How can I unlock my iPhone 4 with iTunes on my computer or any other option you suggest me trying.
Thank you in advance,
SiHero

If you have had a "local guy "repair your iphone you will not get any support from Apple for warranty OR post warranty
If Verizon return it to Apple it wil not be handled by Apple
If Verizon also use unauthorised repairers you may be lucky
(Apple do not sell parts to local guys or anyone else )

When I get a phone call or text message it will not make the sound. Just vibrate. But the switch is on normal. When I change it to vibrate the volume thing will not show. Nor will my up volume up key work. Is there any way to fix it?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

My phone took a text message that was sent to me and forwarded it to 16 random contacts from my phone. ?????????

I have a LG Lucid 2

I did not create that message. It says it was from my sister in law but my
phone chose from my contacts randomly who to send it to. I live in 17350

I know a lot of people with iphone 5 and have never heard them complain about top button always brake and screen that decides to pop off or the back of their case is bending.
That sounds like a phone that has been dropped a numerous times.

How do I reset the keypad shortcuts on a Convoy? When I flip open the phone a new text message screen opens and I can't get to the menu.

That's weird that these iphones are restored/activated through iTunes. I have a Apple so I have iTunes, yay!! I am guessing that the link that you gave me will tell how to put this iphone into Recovery mode? Now, this old iphone would of been activated on his laptop, which is with him and he is out of state. I have a new Apple, his new iphone would of been activated on our new Apple computer because he was here for Christmas and he didn't bring his laptop with him, or did he bring it with him, I don't remember now.... Now the question is, will I be able to restore his old iphone on my new computer seeing it would of activated on his laptop which is with him out of state. I am so worried that I am going to lock up this phone now. I thought I deleted the orginal guestion, and rewrote it, good grief, lol Oh wow, you are a level 10, I would be at a level -10!

What email provider are you trying to email to?
I ran into this issue, and had to start emailing my other account because my old one was just acting weird with my iphone. (It worked fine for me with my gmail account)

Contact your provider and see if they have a means to do this. It can be done for a cost with AT&T.

Any Nokia phones with Threaded Text messaging?

I'm looking for a Nokia phone with threaded text messaging.
Rather like the Palm Centro or Iphone:
Anyone know of a basic model that can do it?
I'm currently lusting after the Nokia 3720 Classic and would love if it could organise messages in a more useful way, and banish my thoughts of bulkier handsets. I've loved my Nokia 6030 for a few years but its disintergrating now.

s60 phones are usually the smartphone family the E and N series all run on s60.
6700 new navigator, the 6220c also runs on s60, 5800xm runs on the new gen for touch screens s60
the lower modesl 1xxxxx,2xxxxx,3xxxx, 5xxxx,6xxx (the 6 family is divided and can either run on s40 or s60 depending on the phone) series usually run on s40 platform. for every phone you can look up specs and it will tell you which platform or operating system the phone runs on

Why does my phone send a text message to an email address, Why does my phone send a message to an email address

Why does my phone send a text message to an email address

settings - message - send&receive - make sure your cell is the default
then starte a new converstation from - your cell number

I mistakenly reset my phone. Needed text messages on their. How can I retrieve them back?!!

Is there any way to retrieve the text messages I just lost due to resetting
my phone?

Tommis,
I am sorry to hear you lost your text messages after resetting your phone on accident. Did you ever backup your media using Verizon Cloud or use Verizon Messages? If you haven't then the text messages are unfortunately lost and there is no way to get them back.

I bought my Iphone 4 from Sprint. I have little or no internet service. When I go into extended network areas, my phone sends old text messages to my friends, repeatedly. Is this a Sprint issue?

I bought my I-Phone 4s from Sprint. The salesman raved about how much faster my internet would be with Sprint, also told me 4g was being added my area, and it would be even faster. Well now 4g is here. All of my friends on AT&T enjoy 4g, while I am only getting 3g, my internet is so slow, I rarely use it!
Last week I visited the Sprint store where I purchased my phone, to find out what the problem was. They told me NONE of the I-Phones were capable of getting 4g?????? Wow, Has anyone else been blatantly lied to by Sprint.
The other issue I am having is: every time I leave my home area, and go into the extended area network, and then return into my home area, my phone starts resending old text messages to my friends, that they had recieved days ago!. Of course the Sprint Personnel argued with me and said those were just messages that never went through the first time. I have screenshots of the duplicate messages from my friends, phones.
My I-Phone was great for the first 2 months. this month my I-Phone has completely quit 3 times, Sprint says a tower is down every time I call in to report it.
Is anyone else having these problems with the I-phone 4s?

You are not alone on issues related to weak signals. It happens to us all regardless of the carrier in the US.
I have an iPhone4, legally unlocked with replaceable SIM that I use here In Australia, the US and Europe. I simply replace the SIM to phone accounts in other countries. Do have issues at home here in Australia from time to time, but many more problems in the US than any other country.
When the signal is weak, ususally 1 bar the phone does not have enough power to stay connected. It will attempt to receive and send, but is trying to process so much that the signal cannot cope.
If any employee from Sprint, ATT or any other carrier attempts to tell you it is you and not their system they are out right lying. Just as they lied when they told you that the iPhone was 4G. Some try to get around the issue by saying 3GLite, but that really does not apply either because of the mobiles frequency range.
In fact the Australian government fined Apple AUD$2.25 million + $330,000 in costs for advertising that the new iPad was 4G and LTE, which it is not. There is currently another legal challenge over the iPhone4S.
If you have anything in writing from Sprint that says 4G then you need to contact your states attorney general. At least file a complaint with both Sprint and the FCC. If they tell you it is 4G then they either are lying or they do not have a clue to the mobile.
When the signal is weak the phone keeps attempting to send anything that you have sent. Sometimes that means multiple sends if the signal keeps dropping to low and it has to try all over again.
One way around the problem is by using an internet or data based app like Viber or WhatsApp. Both are voice, text and data Apps that will use Wi-Fi first then 3G if Wi-Fi is not available. Because they use the data side of your mobiles plan it does not take as much power or size to receive or send. Plus, because they are primarily Wi-Fi then data bases they do not use as much time or text units. You can find them online or through the Apple App Store.
Iv used Viber for years because I can use it overseas or talk, video, text or msg internationally without use of any mobile plan time.
Rember to that in the states you have I think 72 days to return a mobile to the carrier without any charges.
I use ATT in the states and when I am at home here I get almost no signal ... I depend 99% on Viber or WhatsApp to even talk.

I can not take pictures or back up my phone due to error message not enough storage.I have all of my data turned off and still can not back phone up.? I have deleted lot of pics and messages and still get message..

I can not take pictures or even back my phone up due to error message not enough storage I have went into manage storage and turned all my apps to off and I still get error. I also have deleted a ton of pictures and apps.

Android phone not recieving text messages from iPhone

Hello. I am actually a current android user. I have the LG Optimus F6. My friend though has the iPhone 5s.
I have never owned a iPhone, this is actually my first phone I have ever owned.
Though I am in a bit of a problem as a lot of, but not all of the text messages that she sends to me I never recieve, it shows on her iPhone the green message as it is sent but I never received them.
I am trying to look for a solution to this if anyone could help. Thank you

I Believe this is because your friend is sending iMessages ask them to resend an older text as SMS instead to see if this works. Hope it helps
