I can’t tell if data services are available
When your phone is on, icons appear in the title bar in the Main View of
the Phone application to indicate whether data services are available
and whether a data connection is active. See What are all those icons?
for a description of the icons that indicate that data services are
available.
I can’t send or receive SMS text messages
• Make sure your phone is turned on (see Turning your phone on and
off).
• Contact Verizon Wireless to verify that your plan includes SMS
messaging services, that these services have been correctly
activated, and that they are available at your location. Verizon
Wireless should be able to tell you if messaging services have been
experiencing transmission delays. Delays can also occur between
the time that a message is sent and the time it is received.
• Verify with the recipient that the receiving device can handle text
messages.
• If a text message arrives but does not display an alert, perform a
soft reset (see Performing a soft reset
).

Tip
If your phone is on and
you do not see any of
the data icons, then
data services are not
available in your
current location.
