Hi, yesterday I noticed a problem on my GS2 which is seriously annoying...my phone won't receive any texts and if it does they are normally hours late, or I don't receive them at all. I also don't receive calls because they just go onto voicemail. Does anyone know what I can do? The phone is almost a year old and I use Vodafone, I know there is no problem with that as my sister has a GS2 on vodafone with no problems. I can send texts fine and also call people, so I have no idea what is wrong with it...

Thanks, James
 
First off welcome to the forums James :)

Have you tried calling Vodaphone to see if it's an issue on their end?

Otherwise try performing a hard battery reboot by removing the battery reinserting and restarting the device.

I would also try resetting the APN settings, here are the settings for Vodaphone.
