Razr messaging I have a Cingular/AT&T Razr. The phone is automatically sending MMS instead of plain text messages. It does this when I am the originator of the message as well as when I simply reply to a standard text message. It doesn't do it all the time though and there is no pattern as to when it does so it. What could be causing this?

Have you tried deleting your inbox and outbox. Sometimes RAZR phones have problems with the texting and email when the number of text are alot.

Messages > Settings > Text Message > "Send long text as"

If your text is longer than 2 pages, it'll try and send as MMS automatically if you haven't changed it when you had the phone. So if your phone isn't set up for MMS it'll refuse! lol.

Your service center number may be wrong in the phone. Call T-Mobile and ask for the service center number. You should be able to find it in your text messaghing settings. If it is rong (since it varies between carriers) it will stop text messages from going out.
You may also want to try your sim in a tmobbile phone and see if you can send text. Might be a problem on the network, not just with your cingular phone.

ok on cingular/at&t its not possible but there is a ghetto way of doing it go to ur quick notes and go down 4 lines then type what u would want as your autosignature then when u get done typing ur message press insert>then go to quicknotes then choose what u wanted as ur autosignature then send.

The phone allocates a certain amount of storage for messages on a whole. Even though there may still show space available for text messages, you have hit an invisible "limit" and the phone is now defaulting to MMS messages because there is "room" there. Delete a fair amount of messages and you should be able to start sending regular text's again.

check att/cingular to configure your GPRS/MMS on your phone.
