I recently got the above mobile phone, and it has developed an odd problem with texting. Basically when I text the words "you" or "do" it defaults to numbers so "you" reads as 968 and "do" as 36. This happens automatically regardless whether I change the text setting.

Has anyone else had the same problem and know how to fix it? Very grateful for any advice, before I take it back.

I'm sure you've missed a letter out of the model number is it a SGH D900 or a SGH E900 or a SGH U900?

Yep, it's going back, makes one realise how often the word you is used!

This issue has been reported in several reviews of the U900 Soul, all you can do is hope a fix becomes available (ie newer firmware). It was also present in early review models of the Tocco, so it seems it may have been fixed.
