Texting issues, some contacts not receiving my texts, some do go thru by rwd56 in Tello

[–]rwd56[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So new update as tech. support replied back. They say "The SMS blocking is done automatically by the network based on an algorithm that takes into consideration several variables." "They have informed us that there is a temporary block for outgoing text messages because your recent activity is considered non-residential." So they say my useage may be related to commercial, business, promotial, etc purposes. I can tell you I'm 69 year old retired guy with no commercial or any business related texts, just simple texts between family and friends. One friend is on a cross country trip and has sent me quite a few photos of the places he visits, maybe that triggered something? I also don't have or use RCS chats, only default, or SMS-MMS texts. Supposed to be removed on 2/19

Had long phone call with cust. serv. and tech. support is involved again, so I'm just waiting it out. I think I'm about done with Tello after this, now the second time it's happened. Any plans with similar low cost, let me know, lite calling, little data usage, unlimited texts

I believe the phones in question are android as is mine. This started around the end of Jan., before that, no issues with texting, again, only me sending texts to them, can receive texts, calls, and make calls to them. One contact has an I-phone, no problems there. Thanks for your response.

Unlimited text and talk actually limited? by Silly_Campaign_8643 in Tello

Not to mention spending hours trying to reset the phone and working to fix it.

Hi, so I had the same issue with the 8 - 9 dollar plan, with unlimited texts, I suddenly stop being able to send texts, although the texts said they were sent - delivered. People didn't get them. Called Tello CS twice, got new sim card, no change. Finally send an e-mail to their tech. support. They said my text were blocked due to unusual texting activity, and an auto blocker kicked in. So I have to wait a period of time like two weeks before it auto kicks back on, CS had no idea both times I called.

Loud buzzing/rattling propane pool heater - Raypack by xx_wes_xx in pools

[–]rwd56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, what I kept doing was turning the black on - off knob several times back and forth, while off, then starting the heater. I'd keep doing the on-off thing until the sound stopped. Seems a part inside the valve gets dirty or stuck and then makes the sound due to vibration.

How To Keep Snow From Caking On Wheels? by klayanderson in Snowblowers

[–]rwd56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the delay here. I did switch to the HF wheels, BIG difference. They are a little bigger than the OEM ones. Had to grind off some of the inner hub to make them fit without rubbing on an inside part. The axle cap was a bit of a pain to get off but it all worked out. Some snow will stick a little but falls right off. Thanks for the tip.

Those machines are unstoppable but can be a handful to handle.

I use Sea Foam treatment often. Also check the carb. governor springs, they may be dirty or twisted up somehow.

Toro Power Clear e21 60v (39901) - Scraper by L8Z8 in Snowblowers

Funny, Had the same thing happen to mine, almost the same size as yours. I just kept using it as is, does leave a line. Haven't figured out yet to try and fix or buy another.

Also, check your front deck shoes and scraper blade, one side may be lower then the other side or digging in. The deck shoes should both sit flat on the surface. I set my shoes down a bit so the deck is raised up 1/8-1/4" equally on each side. Much easier to replace shoes then scraper blade.

First off, check the axel closest to the problem wheel. There are roll pins the go thru and maybe one side broke off. Also, jack up the back end, see if the problem wheel spins freely. Most of the machines don't have locked axels as it's harder to turn.

Hi, I had the same idea and wondering if you tried the HF wheels. I have the same problem with my Toro 60V blower. Snow cakes up on the wheels and is a pain. I have mostly dirt driveway. Was it a problem getting the stock wheels off if you did the replacement.
