Hey is anyone having problem with sending long text messages?
I experienced it earlier... reboot still didn't do it. Very strange. Ended up calling but only to find out my text actually did get sent even though I got the "cannot send" message.

I'm assuming you're on a CDMA network which limits you to 160 characters in a text. To overcome this you'll need to go into the settings of your text message app and have it split larger messages into separate ones.

My parents both have iPhones and sometimes them and some other friends send me text messages and I receive them like this when they're just text messages. How do I fix this? Thanks

Are they sending more than 160 characters? I think sprint, or cdma in general, converts 160+ character messages into an mms automatically because it can only handle 160 characters in a text. I could be wrong though.

Nope, it's always a very few amount of words.

Is it a group/mass text? I know iPhones at least send group/mass texts as mms. I get them from my buddies all the time.

Nope it is usually just a single yet message sent to only me.

Hey guys have to post this hear instead of the development thread. Had to make a new account. I noticed running CM 10 preview that after to many characters in a text it changes to MMS message. Is there a way to change this so it doesnt? My girlfriend cant get MMS thats why im asking.
Thanks

you can use a 3rd party sms/mms app like handcent or go sms too.
I've always preferred handcent myself.
If you go to setting on the mms app, you can see split sms do that would make it not to convert to mms

Does anyone know if it is possible to send a mms without it displaying as slideshow? Even if I send 1 mms it displays on the receiving phones end as a slideshow.
Thanks in advance guys

I sent a text, and it never showed as sent in the thread. The recipient did receive the text, but the thread would not update sent or received after that. I closed out of messages, and re-opened it, but that thread will not load now. I have it set so that old messages do not get deleted, and that thread is at 997k. Is there a size limit that the EVO can load?
I have done an SMS backup, deleted and reloaded all messages, but that thread will still not load.
Also, is there any way to view the messages from the .hbk file, on a pc?
TIA!
Had that same problem a while back, had to just delete all my texts. I don't know what the limit, but I had upwards of 10,000 texts and nothing no thread would load until cleared.

open your message app go to settings/mms settings and you can make changes there and also settings/general/storage settings you can set a limit there
