Same with my Pearl, most of my texts are either going through more than once or not at all. Something's up with the network, I tried updating PRL and battery pull, still issues. I'm in London. Bah.

my text appear to be fine...

keltron, download this (http://software.crackberry.com/prod...89&n=QuickPull). its quickpull, it does the same as pulling out the battery but without pulling it out.

Ditto, using a Diamond in Winnipeg. Blah blah failed - would you like to retry - keep saying yes and it goes though in the end...

Article I. This is is exactly what im talking about….its sooooooooo annoying, sometimes one rety works, some times I get a reply from my friend before I even hit retry, so im never really sure if its gone or not…..im in toronto so this seems to be a widespread issue....its very random aswell, ill be texting with someone for a whole bus ride, and maybe get that error once or twice......then it will go steady useless for the next hour...

Yea i'm having the same problem, and it's been driving me nuts. I get a network problem error, and I have to press resend like 3 times, the problem is sometimes I get this error but the person i'm texting recieves the message anyways, and everytime I press resend they get a copy. I have no idea whats going on!

From what I've heard, Telus is upgrading and relaxing the text messaging switch/router.

Telus is migrating their sms infrastructure to a completely new system in a few phases, all should be complete late April or early May.

I've been having this issue for the last few days and called DNA, Spoke to someone and was told this was a known issue and it may say failed or error. But its apparently going thru. Theres just a problem with the switch/server communicating back with the devices.

I just keep hitting resend and eventually it goes checkmark.
