I have to apologize too for not logging in here in so long. My pre3 got soaked and gave me quite a scare for at least a week but I managed to get it working again and wanted to post what happened in case it helped anyone else, but I never got a chance to. I will try to do that soon.
But the delayed incoming texts was an issue before getting wet, and still is happening now. It's annoying but if I put it in airplane mode for a few seconds and then back, usually they all start coming in - well the ones I'd gotten since - or if I restarted it, or if the battery died they would be there when it started back up. But then they wouldn't come in anymore until I felt like repeating airplane mode or restart. After airplane mode they pop up in notifications at bottom like they should have, but after restart I only know they are there if I open messages to see if they did or not, no notice comes.
I really appreciate getting feedback. Only I don't know what activity manager is and how to do that, and also doctoring while not the end of the world seems complicated and long and I don't know all the steps to do beforehand so as to not lose anything. I occasionally hook the pre3 up to my laptop and make sure I have a copy of all the photos, music, videos, memos, screenshots, and it's easy to transfer all that back and forth. I don't really use the pre3 for much else besides text & call, hotspot, calculator, memos, not any of the fancy stuff the rest of you know how to do. I have a few apps that don't work anymore like I don't have a maps that works anymore or a weather that works anymore and I wish I knew what to do about it. But what means a lot to me is the texts and you can't transfer them to laptop like you can photos and music, or I don't know how and what to use to even read them or get them onto another phone even if I did. If someone could explain that to me it would be great, especially before a doctor. And also there's the fear that at this point, will doctoring screw up the fact that I still use it on verizon and they don't want to keep supporting these phones? Will doctoring do something within their system so that they don't provide me call/text service anymore?
Hoping for help and advice when you can, and wishing so much everyone stays safe and healthy. And oh I know I should put this in another post but for now, my volume cord got damaged and I can't use the volume buttons anymore. I have an app that lets me adjust the volume somewhat but I don't care for it, and more importantly it DOES NOT work for DURING A PHONE CALL. Somehow my in-call volume is set to lowest now and I can never hear anyone I'm talking to. Please help someone!
And take good care of yourselves.
And as always I thank you all.
