Help!!! My text application on Blackberry Torch 9800 disappeared!!! I can't send and receive texts :-(

Hi everyone,
I need your help!!!
The application to send and receive text does not appear on my phone Blackberry 9800 anymore... So, I can't send and receive texts...
I tried lots of things but the problem is still existing.
I have one error message everytime I turn on and reset the phone: "Uncaught exception: Index 14 >= 14" !!!
Any idea of what to do???
Thanks
Rachel

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
There's pretty much no diagnosing those -- they are the equivalent of the random errors in Windows for which tracing the root cause is fruitless. Basically, these are the last out in the programming code -- some event occurred for which there is no handler in the code. The fix is a code update that handles the event...but, again, knowing what the event is is pretty much impossible. So, there are a few things to try:
Sometimes, the code simply becomes corrupt and needs to be refreshed -- just like a reboot:
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
If it won't boot up cleanly, then you may need to try Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode
There might be an updated code set from the carrier -- check them via this portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
The toughest possible cause is a badly behaving app. To find it, there are a couple of options. One is to see if you can read the log file:
Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type 'lglg'. (You will not see anything while you type).This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably many pages) untill you see a line that says 'uncaught execption'. Click on this line. The name of the app will be in the info. Alternative methods for bringing up the logs are in this KB:
KB05349How to enable, access, and extract the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone
The other method is to remove apps one at a time, waiting a while in between (I usually recommend a week), until the problem ceases...thereby discovering the offending app. Still another method is to reload the BB OS cleanly, leaving some time between adding other apps onto the BB so as to be able to determine exactly which one is the cause.
Good luck and let us know!

HT1355 Can you send and receive text messages in airplane mode?

Can you send and receive text messages while in airplane mode?

No. Regular SMS's require a cellular connection. However, iMessage will work in Airplane Mode, as all that requires is an Internet connection. You can turn WiFi back on while in Airplane Mode.

Can't send and receive text messages

Hello,
For around 2-3 weeks I can't send and receive text messages. When I try to text somebody, the message appears as "Not delivered". On the ! there are only 2 options: Try again and Cancel. If I choose to "Try again", the results is the same: the message is not delivered.
When somebody is trying to text me, the message appears as delivered on their phone, but does not reach mine.
Please advice
Regards
Irina

Yes, I contact them and the problem was on their side. Now my problem is solved

Not receiving texts from iPhone contacts when I'm not connected to wifi or cell data. I can't send and receive regular SMS texts with non iMessage users but iMessage users message are not being converted to text when I don't have internet connect

I can send and receive to any non iPhone user. I can send a message as a text to an iPhone user but if I'm not connected to cellular data or wifi I do not receive messages from iPhone contacts. From what I understand these message should automatically send to me as texts instead of iMessages but since the update it's not functioning properly. Please help. I've tried turning iMessage off and I still don't receive the messages until after I reconnect to wifi.

I have the same problem! Before the upgrade, if I wasn't connected to the internet, any messages sent to me from an iphone would convert automatically to a text message. I have payg tarriff, so I turn cell data off, as it costs too much to use it. I have wifi at home and work, but if I'm out and about, I don't receive texts from iphone users until I'm on wifi. I get them ok from non iphone users. There was never any problem until ios7

Tablet added, own phone number - can you send and receive text msgs ?

I got the G Pad 8.3" let tablet and it was added as an extra line, so it was given a phone number. Was wondering, since it does have it's own phone number, is it possible to send and receive texts on it using the phone number provided ? I tried just sending a text to that number, but the tablet never received it. Since it does have it's own phone number tho, is there anyway to do this ?

donintn,
That is a very interesting question! While it does have its own phone number, texting & voice calls can not be enabled for tablet devices. You can, however, use apps like Verizon Messages to send texts back & forth using the phone number for any one of your regular phone lines. There are also 3rd party apps that will give you the ability to text using thier data enabled texts. View your app options in your Google Play store.

Can I send and receive texts from my iphone 4?

I updated my Touchpad to webOS 3.0.4 and was able to sync my Touchpad and iphone 4 via bluetooth. I was able to set up the telephone calling part of the tether. What I am trying now to do is making the touchpad compatible with the phone for texting. I have read that it can now be done but nowhere can I find HOW to do it. Is it possible? If so, what do I need to do?
Thanks,
Joe
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

The answer is no, but not because of anything to do with the webOS. This feature uses a brand-new Bluetooth profile called MAP (Messaging Access Profile) and many devices have not implemented support for it yet. I took a quick look on the Apple support pages and found this article that lists the supported Bluetooth profiles. As you can see, MAP is not listed which means syncing SMS messages will not work on your iPhone.

Can i send and receive mobile texts with bb bridge?

I would like to know if its possible to use my t-mobile messaging service using the bridge mode through my playbook.
Do I need to download an app from t-mobile? When I open messages, the file is empty, and there is a load of messages on my phone.

There is an app in appworld called sms bridge for playbook. it is used on the phone. it converts to an email and you can reply and it converts back to txt. there is a small fee but works well.

I need help with my Blackberry Torch 9800 media card....

I've had my Blackberry Torch 9800 for almost a year now and I haven't faced a problem like this one before, One day, Out of nowhere, My blackberry started acting up, the lock button wouldn't work, the touch screen and keypad wouldn't work, I wasn't able to access anything. Then the batteries drained out all of a sudden, so I went home and charged it and I thought that there was something wrong with the battery, but then when it turned on again, it had erased all my media! All my photos, videos and music, and every time I finish charging my phone a prompt would pop up and say that my media card isn't formatted! So I wanted to know if there's anyway to fix this?! The bigger problem is that the rest of my data was on my laptop and it's hard disk crashed.....So now I have nowhere to go to to retrieve my files Is there any solution to this? It's really doing my head in! Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
While rare, spontaneous wiping and rebooting do happen on BBs. You, sadly, are the very unlucky one to also have your backups on your laptop wiped out by it's failure. Very bad luck indeed...hopefully you were backing up your laptop somewhere.
As with all restores, there must be a source...your BB will never be that source as it has no "deleted items" nor "recycle bin" from which to do so. Rather, an external backup source is required. Given your laptop situation, the only other source I can think of is if you had activated the FREE (with a proper BIS plan) BB Protect, and had been backing up your data "to the cloud"...if so, then that will be an available source for restore.
Sadly, if you have no source from which to restore, then that's the end of that hope...
In any event -- first, we need to make sure that you BB is actually OK...and that will require some work on your part. Here's what I recommend...
At the top of each device forum, there should be some "sticky" threads that discuss the OS levels available for many models. If they include your model, then please use those as reference as you proceed. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the official download portal for OS packages for your model:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
You may also want to investigate the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe it is capable of.
You may also want to try this procedure to perhaps narrow down the precise causal item:
Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
KB19915How to perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software
Good luck and let us know!

Sending AND Receiving Text Messages on PC through iPhone without jailbreaking

how can i send and receive text messages on my pc with my iphone number? i also would like these messages to still show up on my phone. i know if the phone is jailbroken, wifisms used to work. is there anything for non jailbroken phones?

Is there a checkmark by the phone number, or is it just grayed out? If there is no checkmark, then turn off iMessage, wait a moment and turn it back on. See if it activates. If so, then go to Send & Receive and you should see the checkmark. The phone picks up the number from your phone when it activates iMessage.

I can't send a photo by text - New user, Blackberry Torch 9800

I recently started using the Blackberry Torch 9800 and I'm still getting the hang of things.
This means I'm at the stage where i'm still accidentally muting myself while i leave a phone message or putting people on hold with my ear. If anyone has a master solution for this, that's welcomed, but it's not my main question.
I want to know how to send a photo by text. I've tried, and it comes up with an x next to it, as it hasn't sent.
i looked around the internet and found the suggestion that I resize my images using some app. The app they suggested doesn't exist anymore so I downloaded "Fast Photo Editor Free" and resized my image. It still didn't send. I made it smaller than you'd ever want an image to be, and it still wouldn't send.
To be clear, I can put the photo in the text, but once I push send, the text shows up with a red x next to it.
I'm not really sure what to do.

Hello irishduck
Welcome to the Community
You may try contacting you Carrier as there might be settings that they can do on their end to let you send the MMS. You may also wanna check these pages to help you familiarize with your phone.

My blackberry Torch 9800 has been stolen,, Please Help

Good day all,
I need your help. My blackberry Torch 9800 has been stolen, I need to erase all my personal data and images. If there is a way to do this, please advise me.
I really need your help.
Thanks

If you had a third-party app, such as BlackBerry Protect installed, you could accomplish this. If you have no such app installed, there is nothing you can do to wipe your device or track its location.
Make sure you call Mobily to cancel your SIM card so the person who finds your phone cannot rack up charges on your account.
I hope that helps you.
