Sidekick 2008 Texting help
Oct 9 2009, 11:38 AM EDT | Post edited: Oct 9 2009, 11:38 AM EDT
I have an unlocked Sidekick 2008 that I am using with AT&T service & I am not getting notifications when I receive a text - I've checked all the settings, etc & they're good.

I'm wondering if it has to do with the phone being unlocked - Can anyone tell me if there's a workaround?

Thanks much!! Do you find this valuable?

You'll never get text notifications. (For some reason) it depends on the Sidekick data service, which AT&T doesn't offer. For the same reason, people with unlocked iPhones on T-Mobile will never get the iPhone's Visual Voicemail capability. Do you find this valuable?
