I tried switching over to gprs preferred and it sent just fine. I'm now wondering if sms sent by GPRS counts against me or not.

ok guys i know about this, im from mexico so ya our company is managed by monkeys lol, anyways this guys comes to me and says hey man i got free sms, do u wanna have them? im like ............... ya rite......... he is like look my phone is prepaid and im out so he takes his phone and sends me a sms, im like O_O wtf?? show me show me, he say all u gotta do is this and that, im like thx bud. i had free sms for over 2 months i was so damn happy sending like 80 sms a day and shit, but then one day i was going to send that and bammmmm error, i was like wtf??? so i asked the guy who told me about this, and he said that the telcel guys (network company) found out about this and fixed something or changed something so u are not allowed to send them anymore =(

When u send them by gprs they wont charge u, at least thats here because u dont get charge for mms just for sms so u were sending ur sms to the mms network and u were not getting charged. Another thing if u send them by grps they get sent faster.

Hope i helped y'all, later.........sorry about my english lol

I just tried "GPRS preferred" and the SMS sent without a problem. The only thing I found odd was that the phone did not initiate a data connection. It seemed to send the message just as it always does.

i think we should compile a list of which locations SMS via GPRS work and don't work for T-Mobile

this is what i know from other users here.

San Francisco - NO
Seattle - YES
Houston - YES
LA - YES
Chicago - YES

I am in Florida and I can send SMS via GPRS but T-Mobile charges me for that so it's kinda pointless
