Change MMS Limit?

***I MEANT TO PUT SMS IN THE TITLE, NOT MMS***
I searched at work and I just searched again when I got home and I can't find anything. The registry edit a few people posted doesn't seem to help me. Unless i'm doing something wrong. You know how you can only type 160 characters in a text message? I want to increase that. I know it's possible and i'm almost positive I seen it before somewhere.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Are you talkin about SMS or MMS?
You can increase the limit of a sms.... But the recipient will receive 2 messages... And you'll pay for both, not only one.....
MMS limit is set about to 1000 characters....
I meant SMS, my bad. Just regular txt messages. So even if I change it on my end to be able to type more, the person receiving it will get 2 messages anyway?

Sure.....
If you write an sms up to 160 character, it will be splitted in 2 messages or more....
Erm. I'm confused now. So there's really no way to make a longer text message then? Anything below 160 will be 1 message and anything over that will be another message? I guess the person receiving the text can only receive so much any way.
there is no way to change the limit on the sms messages... it will get split due to carrier restrictions.. ( Short Messenger Service = short quick messages thats what its intended for )

Right....they will receive two texts but the second one will pick up right where the last one left off.
well i receive really long text messages from my girlfriend and another friend. one had a sidekick lx the other one a pearl. so is it just tmobile to tmobile you can send long messages and the the person gets as a long message. also how come mms downloading uses gprs instead of edge speed i probably wouldnt know the difference but just curious.

why not put the sms threader on you phone, and when you recieve long text msgs they will show as one long message on your phone!!!!!
i already get long text messages without it but when i send a long one only my girlfriends sidekick lx can get a real long message everyone else it breaks it down.

thats part of the sidekick software, but it still counts as a seperate message on her service, it just reads that way...
tell your friends to upgrade their phones if you want it to show in long messages on their part....
and if you friends wont change, change the friends around you !!!

I don't mean the telephone number of the receipient. I mean the telephone number of the service provider. This is the number that you have when you go to start/setting/personal/phone, then go to the services tab, and the number that you see in Voice Mail and Text Messages.
I once experinced the same problem using someone's perpaid phone card in another country trying to send out sms messages, only to find out that the last digit of the telephone number in that setting was accidentally erased by him, hence there was no way for me to send SMS messages using his SIM card.
thank u eaglesteve this was the problem i knew it would be it but i didnt know where to find the place where i put the sms number
thank u very much mate for ur help

Unable to send messages from WildFire

Hi to all,
Unfortunately,for several days unable to send massages from WildFire.
When i trying to send msg i get notice-"unable send message after multiple attempt".
By the way i tried to enter into a 'Service Center' but there isn't option to change something there.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.
My girlfriend has the same issues with her Wildfire, both using the buildin SMS application and with ChompSMS.
Some times she gets the error too (several times a day) and she has to resend the messages. The really weird stuff is though, that the receiver actually sometimes do get the message the first time resulting in that the receiver gets the message several times.
And I have the exact same issue with my Desire.. Right now I'm searching high and low for a solution. I've talked to my provider (BiBoB, Denmark, using Telenors network), and they've told me that they could not see anything unusual about the message, so it would either be our phones or our SIM cards.
Since some others have problems too, I suspect Android.

I think it something wrong with my sim card,because,if i change the phone to desire i also can't to send sms.and another sim cards works fine with wildfire and desire.
so i need to check with my provider what the problem.
Facebook to blame for identical problem
Had this problem with my wife's Wildfire last night. Turns out, Facebook was to blame.
The number of the person she was sending the text to changed on Facebook to the format "447### ######" instead of "07### ######". The link between the contact on the phone and Facebook meant the Facebook contact number became the default for that person and as the number wasn't valid, it failed when trying to send a text message or dial a voice call.
Fortunately, the contact in question was me so I removed my number from Facebook and the one on the handset started to work again....

Thanks for advise,

Are you trying to send an SMS or MMS ?
For MMS you need to configure the APNs of your provider:

[Q] Can't 'answer' text messages

Goodmorning,
I have Android 2.2 (Desire) on my phone. I really like it, but there is no App2SD. But that doesn't matter in this topic. (If anyone can help me with that, without losing my personal settings right now, i'll be happy ^^)
When i receive text messages, i see all contacts with a +31601234567 nummber. There is only 1 contact that shows me a 31601234567 nummer, without a 'plus' sign.
From that contact, I can't answer the text messages, if I make a new text message to that contact, (so just the number 0612345678) he will recieve it. If I click on the 'Reply' button when it shows the 31601234567 number, he won't recieve it.
I can't find it on the settings, and i deleted the contact on my whole phone, but when i recieve messages from him, it still shows me the 31061234567 number without a 'plus' sign.
He got an iPhone with t-Mobile, i got an HTC HD2 with Hi.
I'm using Go SMS Pro for texting.
does it do it in the default sms client?
is it so hard to ask in this thread?

The solution is simple and crazy .. for some reason its really stupid for the OS to expect what it expects us to do..
Solution :: Keep your Data Connection ON when you send the message and yes wifi wont work ..It needs data connection.. why ... I don't know ..
Thanks for that, but my Data connection is always on??
Think I`ve sorted it now, I had to change my carrier settings!! now it seems to be able to send to multiple recipients.
Just got to wait for Camera/Flash sync to be sorted then jobs a guddun.
