Text message name...
Aug 14 2008, 10:07 PM EDT
I just got the new sidekick 2008 ... and how come the names of the text messages I received aren't showing up? It's just their numbers. There's no way I can tell who the message is from until I click on Reply ... is there a way to set the name on the text message inbox instead of the number? HELP!!!!

If you dont have the sidekick plan on your phone they may not show up. Once I added the sidekick plan after about 2 hours they started showing up.

i had the some prob last night when i got mine...and today it's fine. Tmo said sometimes it can take about 48 hours to fix itself and get your Sk registered to the network.

Yea ive had the exact problem too. I have the plan except my mom took away my internet "bummer" and ive been trying all the things i can.Well i kinda fixed the sound thing but not the name *still working on*. Well i dont noe if tihs will help but all i did was go to "menu" then "settings" and go to "Sound Profiles". Then i went to the "edit" and ticked the "vibrate" thing on and off and it started to work. But the name is still giving me a headache. ill repost as soon as i can "fix" it.. hope tihs worked for you and good luck 0 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

wow I can't believe they are forcing you to buy the data plan now just to get the text functions to work properly I totally regret buying this sidekick 08 and being a tmobile customer. I have had this phone for less then 2 hours and i already put it on craigs list. anyways sorry for the venting I just can't believe that paying 15.00 a month for texts is not good enough lol
