TECH PING! Cell Phone Receiving Little Tiny Squares Instead of Letter and Words..
4.20.13 | chickensoup

Posted on 04/20/2013 3:48:50 PM PDT by Chickensoup

I have an ENV3 cell phone. I love it as antiquated as it is. However I find I can no longer send picutres to my friends with smartphones and they sometimes cannot send me texts. Sometimes their texts come through as letter trains of squares.

Is this normal between phones as the technology improves or do I need a new ENV3?

I really like the level of tech I have with my current phone.

I really like to text the kids.

I like to occasionally like to send a picture out.

And nothing beats this technology for actually being able to hear a conversation and hold a battery charge.

So techies? Is it a broken phone or is it that chickensoup is being left way behind in the technology upgrades and verizon wants me to upgrade by not letting me communicate with my friends. Not that I am paranoid or anything...

LOL!

Wish I was. Things do become more complicated once you “give it up”.

I look at smart phones and their apps as STDs
