Default SMS concatenation/exceeding 160 character limit

Please Login to Remove!

Have a BB 7250 on Verizon and was wondering if anyone knows if there's a way to go over the 160 character limit for SMS.

It's not a big deal to just send another SMS, but it's pretty convenient to just keep typing.

My old cellphone allowed you to send up to 7 messages, so I was surprised to see that this doesn't just work on the BB.

Thanks

You really don't want to go over the txt limit of 160 b/c there will be little chance that the phone receiving will truncate after 160 characters.

Default SMS character limit

You can setup your SMS to display multiple previous messages (Options, SMS,Number of Previous Items) such that the history of SMS messages with another user is displayed within the current message.

However, the "history" is not retransmitted when you respond. They previous messages display until they are deleted.
