Can you take a picture of it and post it here?

 

What information do you get when you hold the text until the menu option pops up and you select message details?

 

I used to get that, but i think it was something to do with sense as once i changed to a vanilla rom it stopped.

But i know not everyone gets it so im not sure. I do know that i just left it and that was it. Only when i deleted it and then restarted my phone i got the blank message again.

 

Have you ever had two of these messages on the same time, or do you only get one after you delete it?

 

They correspond to voicemail messages. Look back and you'll find you received a voicemail at the time the text was received. Just delete them.

 

i used to get these aswell and im on orange.. jus deleted them after being confused...

mine were multi media messages though not jus sms

and my mater also gets them on his wildfire and hes on orange.. maybe its an orange thing?

 

What he said.

I always get them after a voicemail msg has been left.

Don't know why though.

 

I am also getting these messages and am also on Orange. I'd be interested to know if anyone who is not on Orange is getting them.

 

On O2 and never saw these texts.

 

I am on orange and i get it, very annoying.

 

Always get it after receiving or sending a pic message. Which BTW doesn't work anymore..

 

I get them, all the time, bit annoying but not the end of the world!

 

I find they always appear after I have restarted the phone

 

its a sim message, so will reappear after deleting the voice mail if you reboot your phone without deleting the text.

open your messages app,
go to settings
manage sim card messages
delete messages

problem solved - at least until you get another voice mail

 

I'm so glad this happens to other people too! I'm on orange and I get two or three of these a week! They don't correspond to voicemail messages or text messages, I've been told by orange it's a sim update?
They're really annoying, on two occasions, receiving these texts coincided with my entire inbox deleting itself!

P.S. I get more than one combination of symbols

 

Cheers Nicmel,

As you say they are SIM messages so mystery of what is generating them is solved. At least I now know there is nothing malicious behind them even if I cannot stop receiving them.
