Found a way to reproduce multiple page txts...
- Well after reading a few threads a while ago about how sometimes on the top of a txt it would say 160 1/6 or whatever (like it does on dumbphones) i kept an eye out for it to see if it would come up again. well needless to say i have found out when it comes up. If your service bars (in the top right) displays SOS then the multiple page txt messaging function will magically appear. i have tried this on more than one occasion and it has always worked. just wanted to let everyone know and sorry if this has been posted again.05-18-09 09:12 PMLike 0

but yeah basically anytime the device is NOT on the verizon network, it will display 160/1 for texts.05-18-09 09:20 PMLike 0 - oh boy am i that bad at explanation.....my apologies. Ive seen a lot of people, me included, complain about the fact we can only have 160 characters in text messages while regular cell phones like an Lg or Motorola can break the text into multiple pages and send them out all at once. Well our blackberry has the ability to do this but it has been restricted and someone else, before this, has found this hidden capability. Well i found out how to reproduce it05-18-09 09:20 PMLike 0

EDIT: And by the way, what the OP is saying makes alot of sense. Alot of devices on VZW support "enhanced text messaging" which means large messages are split up into multiple smaller messages for incompatible devices. It appears that the Storm has this capability too, but not when connected to the Verizon Wireless network. I've wondered the same thing alot of times, as my LG Voyager had this capability, and I had taken it for granted that a device like the Storm would, too.Last edited by Dave12308; 05-18-09 at 09:34 PM.

This would definitely stand to reason seeing as the mms service book is present ; however, then how is it possible for BlackBerry users who are on carriers that do not require data plans and opt not to have one to send mms?
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com05-18-09 10:22 PMLike 0 - When it says SOS, your storm is no longer connected to Verizon's network, but AT&T's, thus allowing you to make 911 calls and such. I guess a side effect of this is the ability to send multiple messages a la AT&T style.
I mean, I've heard that text messages are a great way to communicate someone in the event of a disaster, but I didn't know they work on other carriers' networks. . .
Can anyone confirm?
Hmmm. Food for thought.
