Extending sms on HTC Sensation

    Sending a long winded text to my friend today on my new HTC Sensation and noticed that when you reach 765 characters the next keystroke brings up a message "converting to mms message" - is there any way to extend the sms messages so I can send a longer message? - I don't have mms messages included in my monthly plan.

    Thanks in advance,

    I think some of the messaging apps (handcent, go etc.) have this feature.
    Download them (they're free) and have a looksie.

    Just had a look at handcent and it's in Settings > Send message settings > Auto Convert to MMS.
    It says Automatically convert to MMs when length exceeds 3 messages.

    That what you were looking for ?

    Thanks Ste-

    Im actually trying to do the opposite!! Im trying to extend the sms so it won't lapse in to mms when it goes over the 765 characters.

    Thanks,

    Send multiple SMS messages?
    I think SMS can only be a certain amount of characters before theyre either split or converted to MMS with the data amount.
