A friend of mine has a Samsung Galaxy 6 and tells me not to text when she is waiting for a phone call. If she is typing, receiving or sending a text she can still receive phone calls, correct ?

Hello Samsam22!

Help has arrived! The Samsung Galaxy S 6 is great phone! Is your friend's phone a Verizon Wireless Galaxy S 6 or with another company? With Verizon, you are able to make voice calls and send/receive text messages. The only messages you may not receive when on a call are picture messages (MMS) because those messages are sent over the data network and not the voice network. Let us know if you have any further questions. Thanks!
