Hi all,
As title says the text message character limit on the Z2 is very poor?
Is there no way to make it bigger?
Only get a few lines down and it goes into two messages..
Cheers

SMS system limits your message at 128 characters including spaces. Some other sms systems support 160 characters. You might be able to send bigger message, but it will split on receiver.
It's standard for all phones, not just Z2.

If you use special characters you have only 70 characters/SMS (like in Romanian: ă,â,ț,î,ș).

Also if you use emoticons you only get 70.

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.
Hey guys.
I've had this issue since I've got my s3.
Using SwiftKey and special characters in my messages, like â, ș and others.
Now the problem is that using these characters, the 3 message length limit is reached much faster.
Now when reaching the 3 message limit, it transforms into a mms, which I really hate and do not want.
Is there a way of preventing this?
Thanks!

I there a way or mod that makes the part where you type you message bigger or wider? So when I type a long message I wont have to scroll up and down when checking my meassage..

You can use 3rd party messaging app like go sms pro, it has the option for bigger and wider the area where you type your messages so you won't be scroll anymore.
Hi,
I'm trying to switch my SMS app on my GS4 from what came with my phone to hangouts. Currently when I send an emoji through the built in sms app it is sent as MMS instead of sms (it switchs as soon as i type an emoji) which is fine with me. But then I go to start using hangouts for SMS and I type an emoji and the recipient gets nothing. Please help. I would like to switch.

I'm not sure why it does it but for some reason in certain versions of sms apps with Samsung phones it defaults to mms instead. I know there is an xposed app which changes default long messages back to sms vs mms. I use hangouts as well but it doesn't give me that issue. Then again I'm on an S3
Edit: have you changed the default messaging app to hangouts inside settings within hangouts?

Yes I have tried changing the default app within in hangouts. And the sending via MMS doesn't bother me. If it could fix it I'll send them through MMS inside hangouts if there were a way.

Try using the S5 SecMms_blue.apk.. It allows you to send emoji's through sms.. Just find your carriers or if your international based use theirs..
Just find it somewhere and install as a regular app. I'm not rooted nor plan on rooting.

In that case installing another system sms app will not work then

Umm.. yea then you will not be able to accomplish what you want.. I know thats some Messaging apps use wifi to send pics, but the other person needs to have the same app..
Yeah def check out the xposed module. I think this is ridiculous. I know in the newest version of hangouts in the bottom left hand corner you can click and change back and forth between the two but if you add emoji it might not give you that option. It does me, but I'm running a rooted Moto Droid Mini.

I still get the option to change between hangouts and SMS in the bottom left corner like you.

So yesterday, my wife texted me and I noticed that the conversation with her was completely empty (other than her most recent text she just sent me). My questions are:
1. is there a limit to how many texts I can have in a single conversation(I want to say there were maybe 2000 texts before it "reset")
2. Not that there was anything super important in there, but could I go about retrieving those texts?
thanks for any help

What SMS app are you using? Native AOSP and Google Messaging removed the ability to put limit to the messages count. So you can expand it up to 10,000 or more and it will still be there.

Is that 10000 per conversation? Or all together? I am using the stock Android messages app I believe.

I am not sending a group chat. In one conversation with 1 person, is there a limit to how may text can be sent between us before android messages automatically deletes all of them.

It's basically unlimited since they removed the option to limit it. So I guess what happened to you is a little glitch. Try piling up messages again.
