[postalsmurf]

I have a V3m that will receive text but will not send text. Anyone have a clue as to why? It never worked.

The V3m is a CDMA handset. Do you have TMobile as your service provider or Verizon?...Also, are you using an unlocked handset?

Yes, it is a CDMA handset & is offered by USCC, Verizon, Spriny, Altell, Metro Pcs, & ???.

postalsmurf, who is your provider & have you been able to send texts from a different phone on the same account?

Charlyee, I'm not arguing with you, I did say in my post above that the V3m is a CDMA handset. I pointed that out, because the question is being asked in the TMobile forum, and I thought that maybe he/she does have TMobile and is just confused as to what RAZR model that he/she has.
PS: I do see where I left out the other CDMA providers that the V3m can be used on though, so thanks for the clarification.

Yes I have tmobile. Yes its a V3m.. and yes I can receive texts. I just cannot send. I am not familliar with CDMA or what other formats are used for texting, but why would you be able to receive and not send?
My Tzones works.. everything works. just not sending.

The V3m being a CDMA handset only, would not work on TMobiles GSM service. This being said, we do know that you are using an unlocked RAZR (? model) for TMobile service.

A few things that you can try in order to resolve this issue are:

1) Re-send TMobiles settings to your unlocked handset through their device configurator here --> T-Mobile Wireless Data Configurator, (choose any one of the RAZR models that are listed in that link).

2) You can try doing a master clear & reset on your handset after making sure that you have backed up all of your applications, phonebook entries, and pictures that you might have saved to your phone before doing this.

3) If the two suggestions that I listed above fail to resolve your issue, then I recommend that you give TMobiles Tech Support a call at 1-877-217-1135 and have them do some provisioning on your account to make sure that every thing has been set up correctly.

Hope this helps, and let us know how you make out.
