Text Issue - Not sending and/or receving all texts??

[Jsorensen]

Ported over from AT&T on Tuesday and as of today I'm not able to send or receive all texts. I had a friend sit right next to me who has AT&T and we exchanged texts with some coming through on the Evo and some simply never did. Same thing when sending from the Evo. Does anyone know what is causing this? I have had other friends tell me they text and I never got it.

Any help/discussion would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Update your PRL

Ok, I just updated my PRL so we will see if this works. I have had this issue since the phone was activated. Thanks for your help, just hope it works!

Newbie question, but what is the PRL ?

Twistax, your suggestion appears to have fixed the problem. Thank you! For those of you who are having this same issue here are the steps that fixed my problem:

Settings, system updates, update PRL. I have no idea what a PRL is but as soon as it updated I began receiving all of my texts. Good luck.

It's the Preferred Roaming List.

this might be a Sprint network issue, (still a week away from picking up Evo) as I was having trouble getting on the internet (ESPN) on my Samsung Rant until I updated my PRL, needed score updates on the laker gam on Tue
