- I wish there was a way to make it turn into an MMS. -_-.
Click on attach. After clicking the BB Button.

Also, when I type over 160 characters, it just shows that im on whatever page of 6(or whatever the max is) it doesnt turn into an mms... where did you read that at?

Mine definitely does not send SMS in pages. I get "Field Full" when I hit 160. I have no MMS ability to send just text on OS6 anymore. Since you have the 9780, you have a GSM phone which allows for that feature. CDMA does not.01-14-11 08:00 PMLike 0 - You can act like your sending a picture attach it then type and clear the pic from the message that's a work around at least

You are correct!
Even though we (you and I) are on a CDMA carrier, VZW has decided to allow any SMS over 160 to automatically be converted to a longer message and it goes through as MMS. You just keep typing!
AFAIK Sprint still has the 160 char limit01-15-11 10:08 AMLike 0 - SMS text will switch to MMS text no matter what carrier you have (e.g., GSM, CDMA, VZW, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile). It will say you have reached your limit, but if you continue to type and then send it will say converting to MMS. If yours doesn't you may have a bad file when you installed OS6. But it does work.01-15-11 10:08 AMLike 0

Converting to MMS is a carrier thing, middbrew. And I don't believe all the CDMA carriers (namely Sprint) has bought into it yet.
It may be an OS6 thing that it keeps typing but CARRIERS decide whether or not they allow it and VZW has just recently started allowing it and like others have mentioned here...I don't think Sprint does.
I could be wrong. And if I am, please someone correct me. Thanks.01-15-11 10:20 AMLike 0 - On my Verizon 9650 running the Sprint 6 os, I can send more than 160 as when it reaches the limit it converts to mms.
So do you Sprint people still not get the conversion if you check the automatic box here?
In the text screen; menu-options-(the first line in there)"Send Text only Message As:" From there select "Automatic" from the three options.
This is the way I am able to set it on a Verizon. Would be silly if Sprint wouldn't allow this.01-15-11 01:58 PMLike 0 - 01-15-11 06:50 PMLike 0

Maybe in the next release it will be a little different to correct this.01-15-11 07:27 PMLike 0
