How to make messages send on Kik?

I have the Kik messaging app on my iPhone 4. I message this one girl in Oklahoms; I'm in North Carolina. Sometimes, I'll get the "S" next to my message I send and it'll be there for awhile. How can I make my messages send and deliver?

The S is sent
D delivered

All you got to do is send it

  • Will backing up my iPhone to a new one log me out of kik and delete my messages? I just got a new phone and plan on backing up my old phone to my new one. I was wondering if by backing it up I will have to log into kik again or if it will treat it as if I'm on the same device and stay the same? I know kik can randomly log out sometimes and want to be certain before I do it.
  • Why won't my iphone make calls or send messages? I inserted a sprint sim card to my sprint iphone and the bars appeared on the left but i tried making a call and it won't work, i can't send messages either. The sim card is activated and i know the phone is sprint for sure.
  • On KIK messenger if someone is still logged on their app but has the KIK window minimized and I send a message, will it go right to solid D? I have KIK messenger and if I send a message to a particular person with an Iphone who always has their phone on and logged in (but the window closed/minimized from hitting the home button in spite of them still being logged in), would it still turn to a solid D instead of a faded D because they're still logged onto KIK but their app window is minimized? Is faded D only used if the person has KIK but is logged out?
  • Kik immediately deletes new messages? Ok so I was chatting with my friend and everything went okay, until kik started deleting the new messages she sent me immediately. I also tried sending messages but they disappeared too. I have 10.0 mb of space and I've tried restarting kik and my phone but it doesn't work, what is wrong with my kik? :/ I have an iPhone 4s.
