forwarding a sms - Touch HD General

hi all
i have tried searching for the answer but cant find it in the forums,so excuse me if this has been asked b4
when i receive a message which i like 2 or 3 text msgs long when i goto forward it it only displays the text that can fit into 1 msg,the only way i can do this is to use copy and paste!!
is there a setting to change or is this the only way to do it?
using standard wm6.1 from htc
thanks inadvance

can anybody help me ?
i love the phone but this is really frustrating as i recieve alot of texts a day and forward them all the time
thanks

Unfortunately there is a limit to amount of text you can send in one msg (160 characters).
If you want to send more than 160 characters it'll need to be 2 or more msgs. Alternatively you could send a mms using a word document

SMS Settings for Fido on HTC

Hi All
Somehow I just cannot send Text (SMS) from my HTC cell.
I have configured the Web GPRS setting & the internet works, I can send MMS messages but cannot send SMS msgs. Though I can receive SMS msgs sent to me. Wierd uh..... I inserted my SIM card into another phone & I can send & receive msgs. So I know it has to do with some setting on my new HTC cell.
Can someone please shed some light on this
Thanks

even so
when i try to send sms a message comput saying:
your text message cannot be sent.be certain that your service center address is correct
in settings and then try sending the message again.
any idea guys
I think it could be in some file or registry. Because wm's creators missed this option in GUI.
I have the same problem like guys above.
Maybe someone know where is this log to edit it manually. I mean SMS Service Center...
Thanks for any reply!
how about sending SMS only?
I am trying to get my TouchPro to send SMS instead of MMS. I have the phone 514 number for text message settings. I don't want to send a text and ppl who received it gets it like a MMS.

Problem receiving sms that are larger than 160 characters

Ive searched and searched but i can find anything. Whenever someone sends me a message that is larger than 160 characters i often receive a message like multimedia message has been modified and i need to have the person resend me the second part of the message. this is very frustrating. i haven't gotten this message lately so i dont no if thats exactly wat it says. i dont think i get this message if i receive the sms from another windows mobile fone, it only seems to happen with non-windows mobile smartphones, which are what most of my friends have. Does anyone have this problem or know how to fix it
SMS 160
Most providers limit Standard SMS to 160 char, EMS can sepearate them which most PDAs have. If you want longer texts your friends have to send you MMS (pix messages) with just text and no pictures.

ATT Tilt 2 texting limiting to 160 characters, anyway to change that?

Hi all,
Ive noticed for my ATT tilt 2, the text messaging limits it to only 160 characters. When i go over the 160 character limit, i dont see the rest of the message and im not sure if whether the characters past 160 characters are sent or not. Is there anyway to change this? Thanks in advance for any replies.
Cheers!
My understanding is that this is a limitation of SMS in general, not your device or carrier. If your message is greater than 160 characters, then the message is sent as 2 SMS, rather than 1.
the above poster is correct ::highfive:: guythathasateddbearforasig!
Hi ohyeahar,
First off, thanks for the reply. On my old SE phone, when i send over the 160 character limit it does automatically send two text message and it shows that i sent 2 text message in my sent message folder. However, for my tilt 2, it just shows only 1 text message and it cuts off at 160 characters. So im not sure if it actually sent 2 text messages or if it only sent 1 and it just sent at the cutoff of 160 characters.
Any idea with that or how to change that so if its past 160 character, it will automatically send 2 messages instead of 1?
Thanks!

Don't know what you mean, dude. I just sent myself a message that's 170 characters to see what you mean. See the following screenshots. The sequence of "1234567890" (which is characters number 161 through 170) appears to me as the recipient and as the sender.
This is consistently shown via the main SMS tab in Manila, the SMS tab inside the unified communications tab in Manila, the WinMo default threaded messaging window, and in the sent items of the WinMo default messaging app.
the tilt 2 will allow you to type up to 800 characters and it will split it up into 5 sms messages to the end user
now if you want a large message all as 1, send it as an mms, i dont remember how large you can type in mms format, but its more then 800 characters, and it will be all as 1 big message.
I may know what you mean, and see what you mean as it's happening on my Tilt 2. In the Sense UI messaging application (if you slide to Messages, touch it, and reply) it only shows 160 characters of the message you type. But if you actually go to All Messages, and from the Inbox click the person who you sent it to, it shows the full message. I believe it's just a screen limitation with the Sense UI, but the full message should have been sent.
Thanks for all the inputs guys! It was very helpful.
ianderson_76: thanks, that was the problem. After going to all messages, I can see the full text being sent and received.
Cheers!

Touchflo SMS character count

Hello everyone,
After a long time of searching, i ended here to get help with my problem.
First of all i would like to say that i hate HTC Messaging because its way to slow.
The solution I simple, don’t use HTC Messaging but use the normal TouchFlo Messaging app instead. The only problem I had with this program is that it has no character count. And I really want to know how many characters I use in an SMS, because I want to know how many messages I have to use to send all the text.
I added an image to explain what I really want. (photoshopped)
2 options:
1e add character count to TouchFlo Messaging
2e add the standard SMS \ MMS app to TouchFlo
Can someone help me with this problem?
Btw, if my English is bad, I’m not from England
On my ROM (Topix 3.6 without HTC Messaging), you won't get a count if you reply direct from the main screen, you need to select "All Messages" to go into the inbox, select a message and the reply will show the letter count as you type
I have found the solution for this:
