Hi again friends,
I just got through with Verizon's tech support with this great tier 2 tech person who may be my new favorite vzw employee. Basically, there was an issue with how texts were being handled over their network and being passed to Chatty relating to CDMA. I was able to get them to flag it as CDMA-less in my account and texts have started to come through to Chatty!
Their csr filled out a form that is intended to get the PinePhone added to the Verizon database as a CDMA-less phone so, in the future, if that goes through, we should be able to swap sims into the PinePhone and have everything work normally. If anyone wants to give it a go now, and over the next few days, that would be great, but it looks like there's some movement!
