My phone is not able to receive texts, Ive tried resetting it, re syncing it and many other things yet nothing seems to work, i know i've been sent texts because my friends have told me. My phone is a HTC smart (F1388). I recently asked an expert phone forum, and they replyed with "Another suggestion if that does not work depending on the exact model number of your phone would be to perform a hard reset, which is described below. If this does not work repost your phones model number and we will do our best to figure out a solution. "
1. Power off unit
2. Remove MMC/SD Card or Dummy card.
3. Press Record Button while pressing Power button to switch on.
4. On the white screen, press the action button of the Joystick.
5. Choose Erase IPSM.
Why remove the card? Because with a dummy card in it, the phone gets fooled into believeing that there is an SD card in it and tries to read it...
And, if there is an SD card in the unit, more options appear other than just erase IPSM...
this I think is a safer process"., any help would be great.
