Not consistently receiving SMS unless I reboot, is this happening with you?

[Graphic_Delusions]

It appears that I'm not consistently receiving text messages when they're sent.

When I switch off my phone (or do a soft reset) and back on again I get all the missing messages in one go.

I remember having a similar problem with my Nokia 808 so it might be an issue with o2?

Is anyone experiencing similar issues?

If you had similar problems with your 808 it's probably your simcard or carrier.

Wouldn't GD's 1020 require a different kind of SIM card than the 808? It's probably the carrier and/or spotty/inconsistent reception.

I think it's carrier as well.

I've had this happen with the 1020 (ATT unlocked using on TMobile USA) but only once or twice in the beginning and not for a long time now..

You sure it's not the iPhone "iMessage bug"? I send and receive a lot of texts to iPhones, and about half of those messages go out as iMessages (blue texts) not standard texts (green texts). Blue iMessage texts NEVER seem to get delivered, whereas green "standard" texts come though in about 3 seconds.

Thanks (not), Apple!
