hello every one! i've been using samsung galaxy s2 hd lite for a month now my concern is about the text message... it's on 90 characters and when you exceed 90 it is now mms and not just sms... i want to turn off mms so i can send longer text messages as sms and not mms... how is that possible... please help... thanks

Hello and welcome aboard. ;)

Text messages that are longer than the recommended amount will automatically reverse to mms. This seems to be a limitation on the Android platform (which to me isn't a bad thing, this allows the sender to add a pic, music, etc to a text message without getting an error).

Another limitation is sending a video via sms (you would have to change the format settings to mms for the video to be sent ) - and this is not just with the Android platform.
 
Is that so, its a limitation on the android platform, but on my iphone 3g i can send up to 165 characters on sms... now i understand, anyways i still love the phone... thank you!
