Hi Anton. Does sending 'ON' cause sms updates to resume?

Apparently, there are times when Twitter's sms doesn't get delivered to us (for example, we may temporarily be in an area with no signal) and the phone company returns an 'undelivered' notice to Twitter for your phone number. When that happens, Twitter disables sms delivery until it sees activity from your phone again (either when you post an update or when you send a Twitter command such as ON).

A more detailed explanation is in this FAQ page: My SMS updates keep shutting off. – mdy, on October 03, 2008 00:36

My way around this was to add a contact in my address book [i.e., Twitter] and assign it that number. Worked for me.

My phone was an unlocked phone and I think that may have been the cause of the problem. As soon as I got a new phone twitter worked.

Anyone found a fix for this problem or contacted verizon about this problem?

I have a Verizon phone too, and it won't work. I thought it was my fault because the first time it asked me to send my name and I typed it wrong, so it made a new account. I had to complete it and delete it. However, I tried again, this time doing it right, and it simply made a username1 account. I keep trying to complete this to delete it, but it keeps saying twitter is over capacity every time I try, which I know isn't right. So now I'm pretty much stuck. The requirement to enter a separate email address every time this happens is also extremely annoying.

I have this exact same problem and do not understand why it won't work. My friend who has the exact same phone as I do can use twitter, but for some reason it won't work for me.
