TXT count has anyone experienced a problem with this ????

[jdoherty76]

Running T-Mobile 1.42 wwe rom. When composing texts you are allowed up to 160 characters per txt and naturally if you go over this number then you are on your 2nd/3rd txt etc. Has anyone encountered any problems with the txt count? For example there are occasions when I have only typed 324 characters and the system indicates that this is 5 txt’s instead of the beginning of my 3rd. Are you only charged for 3 or 5???

If this is a bug/problem does anyone know if there is a fix for this?

Thanks in advance JD76.

yes, this is a bug. However, this happens when you use short forms.
eg: doesn't, don't etc
to counter this problem, just press backspace ASA this problem occurs, it will make doesn't to doesnt.

well, this works for me

thank you kdskamal I'll give this a try...cheers I assume you are still only charged for 3 msgs instead of the 5?
