Delays receiving texts?

[CorbinDallas]

Hey all,

This is my first post and I've done some reading on here and wasn't able to find an answer to this, so I'm hoping you guys/girls can help.

I'm coming from an Iphone4 and I purchased the SGS2 outright. I have adapted the MicroSim from my iphone to work in the Galaxy phone and all of the features are functioning except...the text messages are delayed for upwards of 20 mins. I can send messages pretty immediately but don't get them in return for quite some time. On AT&T's site under manage my features my device is shown as the galaxy S2, but the data plan still says iphone. I don't want to mess with anything data wise as I was grandfathered with the unlimited data plan and I don't want to lose it. I guess what I'm asking is - are my messages being delayed because ATT still technically thinks im using an Iphone data plan?

This has nothing to do with the phone; it's an AT&T issue that happens regardless of device. No particular cure or any specific thing that seems to cause it.

Thanks for your response. I do understand that its an ATT issue as the phone seems to be working great. What I am kind of getting at is, am I running into this problem because I'm using the galaxy and ATT's system still technically thinks I'm using the Iphone data plan? I would like to have the ablility to switch between the IP4 and the SGS2, but if I am forced to switch data plans each time just to get messages on time, than it doesn't seem worth it.

My daughter had this problem with her iPhone for about 6 months; then it just went away. She is still using the iPhone. My wife had the problem sporadically with her iPhone; she hasn't had any issues since she switched to an Infuse.

I don't think it would have anything to do with what AT&T calls the data billing plan.
