Text messaging problem
I find that I am unable to text message a friend who has tmobile, yet he can text message me! If i try to send him a txt, i immediately get a return text saying he deleted the message and he never gets it all. Is there some incompatibility between verizon and tmobile?

There is no known issue between VZW and T-Mobile.
You should try to isolate the problem. If you can, confirm that you can send messages to other cell phones that are not VZW phones. Ideally, you would want to try to send a message to another T-Mobile phone. You can also send a message to an e-mail address.
If you can do all this stuff, then the problem is on the other end. Your buddy may have inadvertently blocked messages from your phone number. Or something could be wrong on T-Mobile's network, at least with respect to his text messaging service.

Just FYI, TMo customers can't block SMS from a phone number, only from a web address or for SMS containing a certain keyword. Have your friend verify that he can send/receive SMS by sending one to his own number, which will identify if it's our side or yours.

all verizon phones have a web address for their txt messaging too. [email protected] (your phone [email protected])see if its blocked somehow that way. if not then it is a routing issue on tmobiles part. ive seen it before.
