Textmess 

When the thought or ideas behind the text get lost in translation
I texted my friend to come over for a brunch but text went come over for a punch. After several back and forth texts to clarify I could see this was another textmess.

textnesia 

The temporary amnesia you get when texting someone with a question or comment, and having them reply several hours or days, long after you've forgotten what it was you asked them. This also works in chat conversations where the person replies long after you closed the chat window.
Jack: Wanna check out that show on Friday? They got a two for one in the paper today.

Dana (three days later): Sure but I didn't get the paper.

Jack: Huh? What paper? Sorry. Textnesia.

Textless Syndrome 

When your leg feels like its vibrating like you got a text. Or a call, when in reality you didn't.
Mostly happens when you want to talk to someone but they wont reply back, So you keep thinking your phone is going off.

Ex: Jimmy waits for his Jan to text him back saying she will go out with him. Jimmy has contracted textless syndrome

2 hours later Jimmy gets his answer after checking his phone 8k times. Looks like its just his hand tonight.

Textless Leg Syndrome 

Similiar to textless syndrome, but with a better pun. You think your cell phone is going off with a text from your crush, but it is just your nerves. Common when sitting on the couch, watching TV or twiddling your thumbs. Symptoms include sweating and restlessness.
There it was again. The feeling. John slowly reached down and grabbed the phone from his pocket... he glanced down at the phone... no text. The sixth time he had done that. It seemed as if Emily would never text him back. He had heard of this. His friends once had a mild case of Textless Leg Syndrome, or TLS, but this was the full-blown case. It was teenage hunting season.

textless 

In an email, IM, IRC, SMS, or MUD exchange, temporarily unable to write, as through astonishment.

Compare to speechless in spoken language.
A: Remember that sick panda at the zoo?
B: Yeah.
A: She died.
B: ...I'm textless.
