[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
So I have my account set up to text me when my bill is ready.

Otherwise, I don't have texting as part of my plan.

I keep getting text messages from random numbers - no, I don't give out my number. I don't do phone calls or texts other then T-mo incoming for billing.

How do I block all but carrier texts?

If no easy solution presents itself then i'll just remove texting capabilities from my ROM.

I won't pay T-mo to block texts, i'll either do one of two things:

-eliminate the phones ability to receive them

This is an easy fix, but I lose my billing messages and I have trouble keeping track of my place in time, so they are helpful. This is a defensive mechanism.

-Devise an offensive solution. I have a few ideas, but nothing i'm willing to pursue at this time. Lacking other options I may.

Any help from the community out there?

I'm pretty new to the whole texting/cellular bit and this part is making me want to smash my phone. I just started a new job and it takes a lot out of me, leaves me spent and wasted at the end of my shift.

I almost just threw the damn phone out my car window on the way home, i'm easily frustrated after my shift is over and if my window was down it wouldn't have bounced back into my car this morning.

Edit:

An app solution is not the answer, not even being considered. I won't increase the overhead on the device to solve this problem, and if that's the only answer then it's either remove texting capabilities completely or be done with cell phones as a whole.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
That's weird, same thing happened to me a while back when I gave my number to my college, i kept getting random calls all the time, the only way i fixed it was to change my number.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
I'm pretty sure if you call tmobile, they will just block them from your plan entirely. I believe I did the same when I didn't have texting on tmobile. Similarly, I have AT&T block my data so I don't use any mobile data. I lose my picture messaging in the process, but it's much less of a headache than getting extraneous data charges removed every month...

For someone who types so much, I'm suprised you don't have texting blue
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dementor123:
Very simple solution - login to your account on tmobile website, goto change services section and you would see a Block all chargeable messages option. It's FREE!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Interesting - I called CS and they said I would cost some dollar amount per month to block texts.

Wouldn't be the first time wires got crossed there, I'll check into the web portal next time I log in.

Okay, that was worth crawling out of bed for.

I found it in the website under my plan options.

Hopefully it works.

Well, posting I can type at my leisure, and this place exists to me when it's convenient for me.

Text messages get sent to my phone at the most inopportune times. I'm either trying to work on something for development, or like now I was trying to get some sleep. Volume turned up because I have to wake up in two hours and get my day started, but i've been trying to sleep for the last 3 unsuccessfully due in part to a barrage of BS text messages from who knows who. Random that has nothing to do with me.

Also, posting here doesn't cost me any extra per post unlike the texting part that does.

I'm just aggravated at the moment, and prone to solve problems with extreme solutions that provide final and irrevocable resolution.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] LolaGeek:
I hate texts too, I think I signed up for the minimal number you can get, just because I have some friends who seem to only communicate via text. But, if you turn off all texts, you can still get a bill reminder sent to you via e-mail.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Am I right that this issue is due to the annoyance factor and not to the charging factor? I don't know how tmo bills SMS, but here in Canada, there are a couple of service providers that charge good money for INCOMING SMS messages (IMO complete fraud since you can't control somebody else sending them).

If it IS due to the money factor, then there is nothing you can do at the handset level to stop the money flowing out of your account, since they are billed at the network level.

If due to the annoyance factor, best option would be to modify the MMS application to add in a screening feature.

ALTERNATIVELY, there is a setting in the MMS application to disable NOTIFICATIONS (however, this would also block notifications for billing messages).

If you can get tmo to send billing info to your EMAIL instead, that should negate the need for SMS/MMS notifications. In this way, SMS messages will accumulate in the SMS application, but it won't pester you with notifications about it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Thanks for the responses.

Haven't had a problem with it from people since blocking text messages in t-mo 'my account' settings on the website.

Now I have an issue with T-mo sending me a notification text message daily about taking advantage of some thing because of my insurance.

Gonna have to call customer service and see what I can do about that, because I really want to keep the billing notification.

Modifying the sms app on the device has crossed my mind, but with how much work I've got going on right now I just don't have the time to look into even something that small for dev.

Once I get on the road and start travelling for my new job I'll have a lot more time, but leading up to that I need to get as much cash on hand as possible to account for hotels and travel costs until I can get myself into the re-imbursement cycle.

[Desire HD General] hobby460:
Hello to all,

I am french, I used an automatic translator, I espere that my text is comprehensible. :confused:

Since a few months I have a problem on my port USB of my DHD, I do not any more manage to connect it on my pc. I have already read all the comments above I have never found solution. For information, a close relation has a DHD with which I make all the manip, that comes thus only from my telephone. I indeed have on changed PC etc., nothing makes for it, we would say an USB key that one shall have too fast disconnected.

I was crossed a ROM HTC but to send back it to the AFTER-SALES SERVICE it is necessary to me to iron it in ROM operator but there impossible S-OFF and the good value of CID without software on PC according to all that I read.

For information I can change ROM, I have the hand on quite a lot of things.

If somebody has a solution...

Thank you
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thoss:
Hi, HTC Inc owner here trying to help a friend who is having problems with his stock, unrooted Evo.

The device powers on, boots into the OS, shows the lock screen, then turns off before it gets a signal or allows touch input.

We can get into hBoot just fine. Choosing recovery results in a green sync device looking icon then goes to a device icon with a red triangle and exclamation point. Clear storage option runs but the problem persists.

Can anyone please let me know how to fix this? Is it as simple as putting a pc36IMG on the card and running that or can you not do that on stock unrooted? If that is worth trying can you link the proper IMG file?

Any help or advice is appreciated
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaydubb71:
This might not be much help but it might be time to contact Sprint about it. Clear storage didnt help so it may be time to either get Sprint to service or replace the phone.

Unless someone else chimes in...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {ParanoiA}:
Download this and run it from your PC and see if that fixes it. If not, then see sprint

nexus s roms may work but they are dangerous if the rom contains the reboot command then you will need to flash fw through Odin because kernel is not compatible with galaxy s variant it it will not go past at&t logo

I previously changed the boot.img, keylayout, build.prop so it should be fine on that front, it boots up and it works but it has RIL issues (no network, wi-fi etc..) I'm not even sure I'm doing it right hence why I'm asking if it this patch can do it cause I'm guessing that it has different drivers

So, I did an idiot thing and flashed the last Meanrom I believe version 4.0. The idiot part was that I flashed Leedroid Tweeks De-odexed version. Well, now my phone only boots to the HTC screen. When I hold volume up while powering on the phone, it takes me to HBOOT, and then looks for updates. If I cancel the update, it says reboot. If I do the updates, it says reboot. Can anyone help me get my phone working or am I out of luck and have to buy a replacement? (I tried posting this in the Meanrom thread, but I don't have enough posts to post in there).
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
ok...you need a way to manually go int your sd card .... aside from your phone.... and delete the file you have on there that its trying to update...prolly PG86IMG.zip....once you delete that you can reinstall it to your phone and then go to your hboot screen and then you can go from there... just the key is deleting that file some how from that micro sd
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
It doesn't give the option to go into recovery on the HBOOT screen. It should say Fastboot

Recovery

Reboot

or something like that. You didn't brick it, just messed up the ROM partition by flashing incompatible things. You just need to reflash the ROM or another one in recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] Eyedea28:
Great, I will try that on my lunch. A buddy of mine is going to get an adapter for my micro sd to be a full size sd card. I will then put that in the computer and see if I can delete the file you mentioned. Thank you very much for the reply. I will post back if this fixes my problem.

If there is a PG86IMG.zip wloftus is right. Remove it then boot into recovery and reflash.

Hi guys,

Firstly apologises in advance, I'm using my phone to browse so trying to navigate what I need to know.

I be using this guide to root, I read it several times and it makes sense for me.

Before I root though and this is a huge factor, is there anyway I can save all my current apps and restore them after flashing a new rom?. I know titantium backup does this but you need to be rooted to achieve this and before you root I understand you need to have a clean wipe for the phone which I haven't done yet since I'm hesistant reinstalling the apps all again 1 by 1.

Thanks

T-mobile UK, right? You have an I9100?
