Weird test message notification from app this AM
Hi! This AM I received two weird test messages from the TMobile app. The first read "test" for the subject then "test' for the message. On an old device, I saw a second test message come in as well - same subject and text but also had a little blue folder with black up arrow inside it.
Is this happening to anyone else?
There is another thread with the subject "Random T-Mobile diagnostics message of test". I had the message this morning also.
it was a blooper on the TMO side..yall will be getting a apology message at some point explaining this.
On March 7th, some Android users reported receiving a "test" message from T-Mobile Diagnostics. This message was delivered by accident and will not affect the device. We apologize for any inconvenience and, if you haven't already, feel free to dismiss the message.

For those who got this message, did you recently upgrade to a newer phone? (Sounds like one other person above had...) It's possible the message was sent to those who did upgrades to newly released phones (e.g. Samsung S22 line...) This might make sense as I turned on my tablet earlier and did no get a notification. Only from my S22 and the phone being returned that I was about to reset.
no, no recent upgrade here
no upgrades here either
I didn't get that message but have recently received 2 flash messages ( not text) saying carrier services has disconnected my phone. After the second message I called T-Mobile on the 611 and explained this to them as I am on auto pay and asked what was going on? They didn't have a clue, imagine that.
