Recovering conversations or Sending full conversations to another iPhone

When texting with the iPhone, one way to look back at the conversation to refer to a previous text is to hit the edit button. Trouble is, this option gives you the ability to delete or clear an entire text conversation with the push of one button. If someone (not me of course!) has accidentally deleted 5 months worth of texts, which are chock-full of important correspondance, is there any way for:a) this person to recover these texts?b) for the other party who still has these texts to email or send the full five months of back and forth to this other iPhone user? 3GS

MMS-Cant send pictures messages iPhone

Please help! After I did the 3.1.3 update I am no longer able to text message pictures! I called apple customer service and that was no help, can someone help me? It is ridiculous that they offer an update and encourage us to get it done but yet it messes up all of our settings.

New 3GS iPhone-unable to send SMSTXT messages

I recently purchased a 16GB 3GS iPhone and am somewhat disappointed with the product. I am now stuck with it, so must persist !My main issue, is the sudden and inexplicable loss of ability to send text messages ! The send icon no longer illuminates (as it is supposed to) and I cannot respond to, or send new text messages. This function worked as advertised for about five days prior to becoming unserviceable.I have updated the firmware/software via iTunes and have constantly rebooted the phone to no effect. Ive also withdrawn and re-inserted the SIM card.Nothing works !!My other major issue with this phone, is the degraded battery life !! I have turned off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 3G and dimmed the display. I barely use the phone for voice conversations and usually only send 10-15 SMS/TXT per day. Even at this reduced rate of use - I am lucky to get 3/4 of a day out of the battery !!I really dont like this phone Message was edited by: Graham Slingsby Dell Inspiron 6400 Windows XP Pro Centrino Duo 7200

Failure to sendreceive SMS and MMS iPhone

I have kept immaculate care of my iPhone 3GS since I bought it last June. I make sure to sync it regularly and it is in great shape. However I have recently discovered that occasionally when I send a text or picture message that the recipient does not get it.

There is primarily 3 people I message regularly and they all report that I am not sending/receiving about 1/5th of the items.

Cant Send or Receive Calls and text Messages in My Local Area iPhone 3G

This morning, 6 miles away from home my iPhone worked well. When I arrived home and tried the same, calls and texts failed. There is a cell tower less than one mile from my home and the same thing happened last summer and several weeks ago. AT&T is telling me that I need to replace my phone because when I took the SIM card out and put in into my old RAZR phone it worked. I just put the SIM card back into my iPhone and all is well. AT&T claims to have a problem with the local cell tower, but because my RAZR worked, they are blaming the iPhone. I dont think they are correct. I have restored the iPhone, updated my OS, turned it on and off several times in the process.My iPhone is out of warranty and I cant get an answer from Apple for free. Has anyone had this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks for reading this. iPhone iPhone OS 3.1.3

Full service but not receiving messages iPhone 3G

I live in an area where it depends on where I am in my house if I will or will not have service. In my bedroom, I would have no problem having full service. Pretty much the entire second floor of my house I have all bars of service. For a two months now, I will have full service and not receive text messages and calls will not go through. I thought that maybe it was a AT&T problem but the other 4 people that live with me who all have iPhones do not have the same problems as I do. They have no problem getting their messages. My iPhone will be next to theirs and I will not receive messages until hours later. I went to the Apple store and they said they couldnt help my because my Apple Care was up and then they wouldnt even bother with me another second. Also I went to the AT&T store and got a new SIMS card and that did not solve the problem. I have restored my phone NUMEROUS times thinking it would help but its not! Is this my phones problem? AT&T problem? Do I need to buy a new phone? Macbook Mac OS X (10.5.6) Service

What Could Be Causing Delayed text Messages Delayed Phone Commands iPhone 3G

For about the past week my iphone 3G seems to be delaying in response to commands (ie: if I touch to open an app or while typing the letters delay before appearing in the text box, etc) And also text messages are taking longer to go through/send.

Losing signal when phone locked iPhone 3G

Every time my phone locks up and the screen goes black and I go to unlock it, I notice that I no longer have reception (only in my house). When this happens, I miss calls and text messages show up hours later. However, if I am on my phone messing around, the service boosts back up and I can make calls, use internet, etc.Typically, I would just chalk this up to no service in my house, but Im not sure why it would only do it when it locks?
