Hi,
I don't know if this subject is related or not, but me and some (just some) of my friends have a limit of characters for the first SMS. I think it's about 60 or 70 characters instead of the 160. Is it a bug or what? Can someone help me? Or there's no way to do that? 
Thanks

Check they haven't the got phone automatically attaching a signature or something to the message. Get them to send something to you and if the text isn't exactly what they typed in, the phone is doing something odd. If it matches exactly then it may be either a fault with the phone or some strange limitation that the phone provider has implemented in a customised firmware. (Can't imagine why).

This may also be related to the language that the phone is set to. Check that the SMS language is English to see if this makes a difference.
I recall on my T65, when I set the SMS language to Indonesian (not sure why in retrospect) that it seemed to move into the 2nd SMS far quicker than if the language were in English.
Back on topic, has anyone any further suggestions/directtions on SEtool for removing this SMS limitation?

@chuckie:
On Vxxx Motorola phones this problem is solved by deselecting Unicode coding on SMS (BTW, this isn’t a menu choice, you must modify a value in a seem, a customizable part of firmware). In SE phones the equivalent choice could be deactivating NATIONAL CHARS (in Portuguese Caract. especiais, Serviço de msgs->Escrever nova->Mensagem SMS->Mais)
(see e.g. Portuguese K750i User Guide, Version R1a, page 38)

I own a K790i and previously the limit for the sms was only 500.
Now (thanks to demion), by this patch I have this limit as 10000!
;K790 R8BF003
;Maximize SMS Storage capacity (to10000)
;©demion
+44140000
;00FC3B1E: FA229200 7d221201 ; 2000
;00FC3B1E: FA229200 FA221201 ; 4000
00FC3B1E: FA229200 9D229201 ; 10000
I will try to post a similar patch for W800

Hey you can try this:
http://mobilefree.ru/newbb_plus/dl_attachment.php?attach_id=6259
This software automatically ports any patch from Any firmware to other.
All you need to do is to download the software and download K790_R8BF003 fiwmware. Note: you need to have .net 2.0 installed.
Then copy the patch in the previous post and save it. Then port with the help of the given software. Try it. Good Luck! |
