It is doing this because most carriers only support 140-160 characters per sms message. Once you are over your carriers limit per message the phone is made to change it from an sms to an mms message. Naturally when you send media it goes through mms so that is the default symbol for mms on your phone. MMS supports up to 1000 characters per a message. So in order to continue using sms you need to keep your messages at 140 characters or less including spaces
The settings are all different, Internet, Wap etc... for MMS you need to call your service provider and ask them to send you the MMS settings, they are sent via a txt msg, when you receive them click Save or Install.
MMS doesn't work between all networks.
