This article helps troubleshoot text messaging issues on your HTC EVO 3D.

You may have text messaging issues if your device is:

  • Unable to send or receive text messages
  • Displaying error codes or network messages when you try to send a text message

These steps help identify and resolve the underlying cause. After completing each step, test to see if the issue is fixed. If not, continue to the next step.

  1. Verify your HTC EVO™ 3D is connected to the Sprint network using Sprint Zone.

    1. Access Sprint Zone.
    2. Tap Help.
    3. Tap I Need Help.
    4. This automatically checks the voice and data connections.
    5. If the voice connection fails, tap Update Profile.
    6. Test your device to see if the issue is resolved.

  2. Perform a soft reset.

    A soft reset reconnects your HTC EVO 3D to the Sprint network.

    1. Press and hold the Power key, and then tap Power off to turn your HTC EVO 3D off.
    2. Remove the battery. After 30 seconds, reinsert the battery.
