Help convert sms to mms

I would like to know how to change the text message settings on my T-mobile Galaxy S4, running on MetroPCS, from sms to mms. In my old LG phone, text messages would be converted to mms once it exceeded 160 characters, but I can't seem to find how to do it on the Galaxy. Text messages that pass 160 characters will stay as sms and are just split up into multiple messages. Thanks.

I don't believe there is a setting for it. The SMS handling it's quite Telco specific. In here, DIGI Malaysia, it works just fine. Sends them as one, long piece of text, without split.

Perhaps complain to T-Mobile and see what they have to say?
