Your device should automatically receive a SMS when one is sent to your number.  Did you purchase your device from T-Mobile?  Are your APN settings correct?

what phone do you have?

***I like many others come onto this site for assistance and to help others. Marking a reply as helpful or correct helps others with like issues when they try to search the site for assistance. I do not work for Tmobile and my suggestions and or opinions are my own**.~~~~ The site here is primarily peer to peer with some TMO moderation to keep the site in order..They do not have account access..The prefered method would be to contact TMO through either calling in (tier 1 support) or by contacting them through either Facebook/Twitter (tier 2 support)**~~~~

Hey there @Lostspace Most people use the built-in messaging app to send and receive text messages. There are some third party apps that you can also download and use. 

Are you currently having issues with messaging or just looking for alternate options?
