Don't know if this is what you are experiencing as I've never encountered this problem, but I was about to post this when I saw yours.

Check that out, basically it says you may need to use a third party app from the market. Just make sure to go into your default app settings and disable notifications. Hope it helps, seems like a real PITA.

Droid Ally - Texting Problems

Moved to Other Android Devices for greater exposure.

This may be similar to the problem posted by Mallosaurus.Rex at https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/792086#792086. I suggested checking out Home screen > Menu > Settings > Applications > Quick launch, which shows a list of shortcuts/hot keys using the Search button + an alphanumeric key, such as E for Email, etc. (This is on my Samsung Stratosphere; your phone might be different.) Is it possible that you are accidentally hitting or holding the Search key while typing? Otherwise it could be some defect in the hardware or software that was simulating a Search key press while you're typing.

Lines around type and other type/text problems in Dreamweaver CS3

Dear Dreamweaver forum:
Good news/bad news,
First the good news…
My thanks to a forum member by the name of Mylenium. With Mylenium's advice I have improved my halo problem by including a black background when I save type in Illustrator CS3 as part of importing it into Dreamweaver CS3.
However, the bad news, is that I’m still having type and text problems.
Problem area 1
Now, in Dreamweaver, I’m getting lines appearing around the type.
I am dragging and dropping the .gif type file into a Dreamweaver Div Tag.
How do I get rid of the lines around the type so that they do not show up in the Safari browser?
(Please see below)
Problem area 2
I cannot drag and drop text from a Word .doc file into a Dreamweaver div tag.
I also cannot copy and paste Word .doc text into a div tag.
How do I include text on my webpage without having to manually type it in?
(Please see below)
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
From within Dreamweaver CS3, how do I place text? Dragging and droppign the file does not work.
This is screenshot of what I see so far when I use Safari to test what I have made so far in Dreamweaver CS3.
I get lines around type.........not usually a good thing.........How do I fix it?
The way I created the portfolio type in IllustratorCS3 using the File > Save for Web and Devices. I then imported the resulting .gif file so that it was within my root folder within the Files panel within Dreamweaver CS3.
Am I doing this right?

Hi
The problems you are experiencing with the image text, (why are you using image text, these days?) is probably cause by the image having a border when created in illustrator, or the image size being set incorrectly.
As for the word text if you are using windows, see http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/9.0/help.html?content=WSc78c5058ca073340dcda91 10b1f693f21-7ce6.html.
On the mac it is a little more complex, save your word doc as html, then apply the 'clean up word html files', (see - http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/9.0/help.html?content=WSc78c5058ca073340dcda91 10b1f693f21-7ef5.html) copy the relevant text and mark-up from the word html file, and paste into your html document in the required position.

Texting problem with Apple 6

My SMS text messages will not deliver from Apple 6

My device is Apple iPhone 6. The other device is a Droid. Texting works fine to other iPhones.
I have only tried texting to the Droid from this one location.
I have tried it both with Wi-Fi on and Wi-Fi off on my phone. With Wi-Fi off, my iPhone switches to Verizon LTE.

Workaround for the Fade/Appear blocky text problem in IE

Just wanted to share with folks a workaround for the IE
"blocky text" problem that you see when using Fade effects like the
one used in this example:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/DetailRegionEffectsSample.html
It turns out if you set the 'background' CSS property on the
element you are fading, that IE properly renders the text. So to
fix the effects sample above, all you would have to do is modify
this CSS rule in the file to place a background color on the
description region to get things to look good in IE:
#description {
opacity: 0;
filter: alpha(opacity=0);
background: white;
So if folks have been avoiding the use of effects because it
makes things look terrible in IE, you now have a workaround.
--== Kin ==--

I was using spry's AppearFade effect to transition between
"slides" in what equates to a viewstack that I created.
Then I noticed that it would take bold text in IE and make it
look all smudgy or blurry.
Well, after working on it for a while, I got to thinking,
"This problem is specific to text rendered in MicroSofts
browser"... "Hmmm, I wonder".
So, I tried using this style rule: [ font-family:"MS Sans
Serif",Arial, Geneva, sans-serif; ].
Lo and behold, feed the stupid MS browser an MS font and it
does not blur the text.
I just wanted to get this our there. Because someone might
want to solve this in a way where they don't have to set a
background color...

E6 Big Texting Problem

Can anybody help me out with this problem?
My E6 has developed a texting problem, whenever I send a text none of the text appears in the conversation speech bubble, just the date or time when it was sent and the character "0". Does anyone know why?
Thanks

Would suggest that you backup E6-00 using Nokia Suite, then reset device to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user). Perhaps restore contacts only and try out texting/conversations before restoring device any further.

Nokia C3-00 texting problem.

Hello everyone, this is my frist post on here. So i bought the nokia c3 and unlocked it from the vodafone network. I use my 02 sim now. I just discovered something that annoys me and need help getting rid of it.
My problem is that after every text send the phone virbates letting me know that i have sent the text and my balance comes up. how do i change the settings so that this doesn't come up. Really annoying as i've just got a new number and sent out a mass text to everyone. The phone vibrated for like 2 minutes straight!!
Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

At the phone store where I bought the Nokia C3 they removed the Vodaphone presets ( since I have another provider ) and they also updated my phone with the latest software available ( see below ).
But now I have a serious texting problem!
If you type the Q you get an A , a=q , z=w and w=z .
Also after you typed something and you delete the text and reopen the textbox again this word will reappear on a blue underscore?? Anyone any idea what's happened or had the same problem??
The phone's update info:
C3-00
V04.45
04-08-10

Variant: 00.00
Vitual variant: No Virt. Var.

Text Problems in Safari 4

Just this morning I started to experience bad text rendering problems in Safari 4. I am seeing text that overlaps on other text, text that leaves a button and crosses over into the space next to it, text that is truncated on buttons, image alignment problems, and more. Typing in text boxes is a problem, too -- the cursor doesn't display at the point where text is actually being inserted, but several characters off.
It doesn't affect every site -- Google and Netflix look OK, while Apple and Facebook are strongly affected to the point of being almost unusable. Firefox and Chrome on the same laptop are working fine. Other programs on the system, like TextEdit, are fine, too. I have tried changing the default font preferences in Safari, but while the text size changes on certain pages, the overlapping text problem isn't helped.
I have screenshots of the issue -- how do I post them?
Does anyone else see this issue? Many thanks for your opinions and advice?
Safari Version 4.0.3 (6531.9)

Where did you get 67 errors? http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.totallybarbado s.com%2F shows the only error is the "pre" tag which are necessary hacks for formatting the "pre" tag. The other "warnings" are no different than checking apple.com http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2&warning=2&uri=http://w ww.apple.com
They also do not assign background-color to "every" css element. Why would you (to bloat CSS)? So, there is exactly "one" error which is well documented and is supported in CSS2.1 when released.
The problem is that Safari does not adhere to white-space or "pre" tags (preformatted text). This has been an ongoing problem since it's incarnation. All other browsers (FireFox, Netscape, IE, Opera, Mozilla..etc) do. http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-html40-19980424/struct/text.html#h-9.3.4

Weird texting problem

I have a Z1s running 5.0.2 and I'm not a big texter. I'm using the stock apps for texting and contacts. I was trying to send a text to someone I had never texted before. I brought up their contact page and pressed the little text icon and I got a texting screen except that it was covered by a menu that had options like 'add video', 'add picture' and a bunch of others that prevented me from actually being able to text. The options did nothing and the back arrow also did nothing, so I was prevented from composing and sending a text. I sent the text I needed to from my desktop using mighty text. When I received a reply, I was prevented from reading it by the same menu which still did nothing. That was yesterday. Today, the menu was gone and I could read the return text. For a while though, I was prevented from reading any other text I had received. I would press on one and the first one I looked at came up instead. Then that went away after a while and things seemed to have returned to 'normal'. I really don't understand what is going on with my phone. I like the phone and I love the battery life, but this bit of weirdness and the fact that some apps that worked just fine on my N4, don't seem to work at all on the Z1s. I have an app named Move that counts your steps during your day. It worked just fine on my N4, but on the Z1s it's only counting maybe 1-3% of my steps. It says I walked 89 steps yesterday and that is absurd. I assume that the app uses the accellerometer to do its work. I have another app that uses the gps for tracking and it's not registering anything even though the gps seems to be functioning. And the phone doesn't have as good a connection during calls as my N4. I get a lot of static and breaking up during calls that I never got on my N4. 99% of my calls are made and received at my home, so that is what I'm comparing. Anyone have any clues as to what is going on here? The update to lollipop was done through the pc connection. Any additional updates have been done OTA. I haven't rebooted in a while and I think I'll try that first. TIALT

The texting problem has gone away for a while, so I can't take a screen shot. I loaded the suggested messaging and google fit. I don't like changing apps if what I had worked under lollipop on my N4 and now that I have the Z1s also running lollipop they don't. It seems to me that Sony must have something to do with this problem. Either the hardware or the software (os) is significantly different (inferior). The gps tracking app I'm using is called Bubbler. I tested it today and it only registered my location a handful of times instead of the every 5 or 10 minutes like it's supposed to. To me this indicates that the gps is not functioning properly. The phone and the sim card are about a month old and it came as a micro sim. I don't mean to be a whiner, I'm just confused and disappointed that things are not functioning as I expected. And on top of all that, the call quality is less than stellar. SorryLT

Droid Turbo Group Texting Problems??

Just switched my daughter over from an iPhone to the Droid Turbo. She is using the messaging app on the home screen. She is no longer able to receive group messages, be added to groups from the other end, or send to groups in her contact list. Thoughts? Fix? Alternative app suggestions? Would love to fix this before she heads back to school in the next couple of days. Thanks in advance for your help!

Where in settings is group message on/off button??
The 3 button overflow. Everything working fine for me even with this type of reception in NC.
Anyone who knows I am from Hawaii... Yes I am doing field work and Verizon coverage at this connectivity is still better than the other major carriers.

Droid Bionic text messages going to wrong people

I have had my Droid Bionic for several months now. It is not rooted and I don't download tons of apps on my phone. I don't use netflix to watch movies or download music. The apps I have are mainly to help me with work. So I'm not app happy just downloading things non stop. This is why I'm confused and irritated. My Bionic has started sending text messages to the wrong people! I had this issue with my Droid X which is why I switched to the Bionic, hoping that after all these years of making smart phones motorola, google and verizon would put a phone out there that actually works like it's supposed to. How much practice do these phone companies need to get their OS right? I don't mind paying a lot of money for something that will make my life a little easier but I get very irritated paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work the way it's supposed to...and at the most inappropriate times. The Bionic has gone from helping to adding to my daily hassles. Is anyone else having issues with text messages going to the wrong people on their Bionics? Have you found a way to fix it? I'm also getting error messages that just started about a week ago...com.motorola.main.service has stopped and then a option to forceclose. The tech support person at Verizon sounded like he had never seen a smart phone before and gave me the Verizon standard technical reply..."do a factory reset". I should not have to reset anything on a NEW Phone! Why don't you fix these problems Google, Motorola and Verizon and in a timely manner?! I know for a fact if I didn't pay for my phone as promised or pay my bill as promised I would suffer the consequences immediately! You cell phone companies are all about getting your money and leaving us customers out here hanging and irritated. If you think my feelings are misguided then feel free to prove me wrong. FIX THESE ISSUES AND FIX THEM IN A TIMELY MANNER! BETTER YET, PUT OUT A PRODUCT THAT WORKS AS PROMISED IN YOUR ADS! TRAIN YOUR TECHS TO ACTUALLY RESOLVE ISSUES INSTEAD OF RECITING THEIR FAVORITE MOTO "Do a factory reset"! When you do these 3 things I will not feel like someone who has been lied to, robbed, and irritated! I am usually a very positive person but after dealing with issues with 2 expensive phones I'm a little upset. Can anyone help me fix my phone?

Go into your settings, Messages and turn on iMessage. It will then send messages that are iMessages to both your iPad and iPhone. You can also turn off this feature on the iPad if you do not want to receive messages on the iPad.

Droid X Contacts Problem

This problem has to do with Contacts being displayed consistently between the various APS that use them. These all worked fine and as expected until I shut down the phone. The problem started and remains after turning the phone back on. All my contacts were synced from my BlackBerry Tour by a Verizon Wireless technician at the time of the Driod X purchase.
Examples of the problems I having are:
Only a few contacts (mostly the defaults contacts I believe) are displayed when I launch the Contacts app. All Contacts was selected by default, and changing the selection to Favorites or Phone Contacts both came up empty. But when I press the Phone icon to make a call, and touch to display contacts, all my contacts are displayed correctly as Phone Contacts.
The same problem exists attempting to select a Contact to Text. It show my previous contacts that I text with. When I try to bring up my Contacts to text someone else the same few Contacts are displayed and not my Phone Contacts.
Does anyone else have this same problem?

Yes, I do think that we are all in the same boat here! I think Google has to rethink how it handles contacts, and fix this frustrating problem. Contacts on phone should be based on the phone, and not Gmail or anything else. I've never had a problem with contacts on any other phone before in my life!
There was someone who posted they do not have the same problem. My problem started after I powered down the phone I believe. All contact was proper and available when I took the phone out of the store.
I also would like it if we could post the Droid model number and OS version so we can be sure we are all talking about the device setup.
I have:
Driod X
System Version 1.13.516.MB810.Verizon.en.US
Firmware 2.1-update1
Kernel version 2.6.29
Build number VZW
I am not sure what other information is pertinent.
Thank you for all the input!!!

4S Touchscreen, Orientation and Speak Text problems?

Hello my Fellow Nerds and/or iPhone lovers,
I have been having a number of problems using my touch screen on the iPhone 4S and I'm not sure if it's directly a hardware problem or simply I don't know how to use it. It seems as though when I make an attempt to select a single word and make the desired edit that more or less text happens to get selected. Same problem with paragraphs or other amounts of text as well that I am not able to select what I wish.
The main areas I've been using that feature is in Notes app, email messages and places just like here where I'm editing the text as I make my post. In The Notes App I don't know why but sometimes I'm getting a keyboard when I don't want it and sometimes I can't seem to correctly edit the text.
Just checking to see if anyone out there has had similar problems as well. I think this has something to do with the iOS 7 upgrade or simply that I don't know how to use my iPhone. I have just recently started using it much more for editing text. Maybe it's simply that I need a refresher on the screen use and editing text so if you happen to know a good Apple webpage or another link just let me know about that if you could.
My other issue that's ongoing that the screen orientation is flipping when I don't have the phone in that position. Again I think this is something to do with iOS 7 but perhaps not since is a new issue and I have never had problems with that in the past.
Part of the editing/screen orientation is related also to do with speaking text. Once text is selected, I don't always get the speak text button or when I try to touch the button it barfs out on me going through the small menu that you navigate.

Hello hrenshaw0128,
Texting is one of the most common forms of communications in today’s society. I can certainly see the value in having text messages working at all times! Hopefully, you will reconsider canceling your parents' service as we can partner together and resolve your messaging issues. I have a few questions to ask you in order to get clarification on the issue. What software version do you have on your Droid Incredible? Are you getting any error message(s) when trying to send or receive a text? What city and state are you located in? Below are a few troubleshooting steps for you to try on the device.
Check to ensure that you have the current software on your device.
Remove any unused apps from the device to free up device memory.
Delete your signature on your device if you have one.
Remove any 3rd party messaging apps.
Erase long threaded text messages from the text inbox.
Perform a factory reset on the device. (See link below)
http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=30946
If you decide to perform a factory reset then it is encouraged to back up your contacts and calendar entries. Backup Assistant is an excellent app to store your contacts and calendar entries can be saved on your Gmail account. Also, be sure to save all of your music, pictures, and videos on a memory card prior to the reset. Once the device has been reset to it's factory state, there is a brief tutorial on how to reactivate and setup the device. After the completion of this tutorial, please test all voice, data, and text services. If you have any additional questions or concerns then feel free to reply to this message.
Thank you...

LiveView on Droid X, Text Messaging Doesnt Display

Hi All,
I got a LiveView last week and so far on my DroidX everything seems to work about as well as I expected, EXCEPT Text Messaging never displays on the LiveView.
This was a major feature I hoped would work even if some of the other less important ones didnt.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get Text Messages to display on a DroidX?
Ive tried everything I can think of but nothing seems to make any difference.
I really like the concept of the LiveView and would like to see it develop rapidly.
Thank you.

ISSUE RESOLVED!!
EXPLANATION OF ISSUE (FOR SONYERICSSON TECHNICIANS TO FIX IT THE RIGHT WAY)
The problem you are having is a common one for Droids on Verizon's CDMA network, as well as Rogers in Canada and Sprint PCS. Its just another form of the SMS time offset issue that's been plaguing us all for years...
for some stupid reason, the CDMA network timestamps all messages in GMT, rather than the local timezone
This issue is annoying, and should have been fixed in the verizon distributions of android a long time ago, but it is compounded by a confusing programming choice made by Sony Ericsson:
Inside the dex file of the apk, in "com/sonyericsson/exttras.liveview/LiveViewService$9.class" on line 31 (ignoring blank lines and comments), there is a test run on the timestamp... (the exact code is "if (l1 > l2)")... THIS TEST FAILS ON ALL CDMA PHONES WITH THE TIMEZONE BUG
I'm not sure why they were working it that way, but they should have simply tested to see if the message was newer than the last message received... they apparently did not.
HOW TO MAKE IT WORK (WITHOUT MODIFYING THE APK FILE)
install SMS Time Fix from the market, and set the offset method to "timezone". This fixes the issue, as well as issues with message order in restored backups.

Droid X Text Failed

Is anyone having an issue with their Droid X not sending messages to certain users? I am unable to send a text message to certain contacts on different carriers. Im getting a "text message failed" each time and i can only send a message to these specific people if i forward the message or response IMMEDIATELY after a text is reiceved. Any Suggestions, I just got a replacment and issue not resolved.

Hello,
If you are having trouble sending/receiving SMS/MMS messages, first attempt to send one to yourself. If your device sends and receives your message, it is processing correctly on our network. In most cases, when you are not able to send or receive a message to/from a specific movile number, there is either a provisioning problem on the other users end or they have a block in place. For this type of problem, I encourage you to contact the party you are attempting to send/receive messages to/from, and have them reach out to their carrier's technical support department to ensure their line is correctly provisioned.
If this is an ongoing issue with multiple contacts, turn off your device and power it right back on. If this doesn't resolve the problem, and since this type of troubleshooting is difficult to resolve via this forum, I encourage you to contact our Technical Support department directly at 1-800-922-0204, option 3 from an alternate phone.
Thanks.
