texting & 160 word limit (verizon)

[kyle4269]

John, I have spent hours researching this same problem. PPC to PPC will be split into 2 messages. NONPPC to NONPPC will be split into 2 messages. But when it comes to NONPPC to PPC is where we run into the problem. I talked to a few Service Techs and they said its a known problem with the network. So its nothing that we can do to the phone itself to make it work. Hope that answers your question and if you find anything else out about this let me know. I really want a solution to this problem.

My Son has my old xv6800 & his GF has an eNv. When they both had an Env they could send any text they wanted. Now, he never gets the 2nd half of a long message she sends him.

Are you telling me there is NO WAY to fix this problem other than send shorter messages??

This must be phone or network specific because I've never run into this problem on Sprint. My girlfriend has had the Samsung M610 and now has the instinct and we never had that problem (I was using the 6700 then a a Centro, then my 800w).
