Wierd mobile phone problem

Oct 10, 2009 3 Replies

I have tried to delete the sent text messages from my mobile phone today.



All the texts have been deleted except one. If I try to open or delete this text then the phone just reboots itself.



Any ideas why?

Can you tell (e.g. based on where it was sent from) if it's a "normal" text sent by a person from another phone, or an automated one sent by a server somewhere?

Does you phone have a menu option to delete all text messages, rather than deleting them individually?

It is a message that I sent. So I assume that I wrote it.

Yes, I have just found that option in the menu after your suggestion. I now have "Delete all read messages from folder" on my screen. Just one second whislt I click OK.

And the message has gone.

Thanks for that. I was initially deleting them one by one as I needed to save some info from some of the texts.

Any ideas why it would not delete when I tried it the otherway?

Cheers

Either a software bug, or possibly you somehow introduced a sequence of numbers or special characters into a message that triggered the message to be handled differently (the network operators use this sort of text message to control the phone configuration).
