For your texting issue, make sure you haven't changed the Short Message Service Center (SMSC) number. All cellphones will have a field with an unfamiliar phone number pre-populated and if you've deleted this number or altered it, your text messaging will stop working. Some things to consider if your picture messaging doesn't work is whether data on your phone is enabled or if you have a data block on your account. Also make sure your phone has the current APN settings in place: Name: TELUS SP
APN: sp.telus.com
Proxy: 74.49.0.18
Port: 80
Username: <Not set>
Password: <Not set
Server: <Not set>
MMSC: http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mmsc
MMS Proxy: 74.49.0.18
MMS Port: 80
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 302
MNC: 220
APN type: default,mms
