HTC

You cannot send pictures directly to a cell phone BUTTT you can send those pictures to those phone #'s email addresses !!! Just have your friends text your email to get their email address and then store them in your phone. As far as the black screen problem i have heard that alot around all of the forums and unfortunately i would just say make a tech look at it and try to get it switched out for a new one.

To note the other response you got you purchased the better phone as the Centro doesnt even compare to what the touch is or can do. A new ROM is in the works where it will enable our GPS AND make our phones one of the first REV A phones available. (Just a side note )
