I cannot turn off the urgent symbol on my text messages and I cannot turn off the repeat message on my reply messages

Envelope usually indicated a text message. Usually, if you have unread text messages your little envelope will have a number one or number two, etc in red on it.

You will need to go to your text message icon to open your text message screen.. It might be called *Inbox* but it's not email only text or SMS messages.

to fix your "stuck" delete key clean it if possible using alchhol

Hi,

This because she might have sent the message in some other language.Your phone might not support that language.

That is the reason you are getting symbols when you recieve messages.

Thanx
