I recently got the Rugby II and I love the phone, except that text messaging doessn't work properly. I returned it within the 30 period and got a brand ne one yesterday. This phone is doing the exact same thing!
To send a text message, first you have to press "send to" and the phone will display the contact(s) you're going to send the message to. Then when you press "send" it should send the message. It only works about half the time. The rest of the time, the menu slides back, cancels the message, and saves it to my outbox. The unsent message has a red circle with a line through it.
It does not attempt to send and fail! It goes back within the phone's menu without any indication that it's attempting to send a message.
In order to actually send the message, you have to go to the outbox and "edit" the cancelled message, then "send to" then "send" all over again. It always sends the message on the second try, which leads me to believe that the phone's software is defective, or I have gotten the second of a bad batch of phones!
Is anyone having this issue? If so do you have a fix? This is the second brand new Rugby II I have gotten and they both do it!
