Verizon Network Limitation, split texts into own messages and send. #73

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Any text over 160 characters sent outside the Verizon wireless network.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.6

Please provide any additional information below.

This is a VZW network limitation, details here: 
http://androidforums.com/android-applications/15980-conceiveable-sms-
beyond-160-verizon.html

that details that Verizon will not split the SMS's unless going to another 
VZW customer.  So if text in quick reply is over 160 characters, to break 
it up and send them separately.

That's quite unusual.  The Android SDK actually already does split messages up 
but I
guess it ends up sending them as a multi-part SMS rather than sending 
separately.  I
don't have a VZW phone to test with, but I tried adding this to the code - can 
you
try out this version and see if it works?

st.apk

If it's successful I will add it as an option in the next release.

Worked great! All three messages were received on a non vzw number!  Thanks!

Great.  Can you also go to the system messaging app and view the thread and see 
if all 
the sent messages also appear in there?  Also the test version is a debug 
version so 
make sure you uninstall and re-install from Market at some point.

They all appear in the system messaging app.

Cool.  This will be a configurable setting in the next release.  Thanks for 
testing.
