Help SMS Error Cant text?

Chances are this is due to Sprint's system being hammer, and your account not being properly provisioned yet.
 
thanks Bek, My wife's evo has her phone # wrong??? but I can call her, but her call id is some weird phone#...
 
Yep - eventually Sprint's systems will wake up from being curb-stomped and gang beaten in the back alley this morning, and come around.
 
Try calling customer service or going to Sprint Chat

I had a similar problem and it had something to do with them not activating my phone properly. The man I talked to on chat sorted it all out for me, and it works fine now!
 
I did the online chat for this error message when trying to send a text after getting my phone just a few hours ago, and this is what the chat person told me to do, so the next person doesnt have to go through it.
