About SMS messages

With an SMS-compatible phone number, you can receive short message service (SMS) messages. An SMS-compatible number is a phone number that your service provider has enabled for SMS.

Find your SMS number

In the phone, the My Number field displays your phone number. If your BlackBerry® device is enabled for SMS, this number is also your SMS number.

Open SMS messages

An unopened SMS message appears in a messages list with a closed italic envelope icon. After you open the message, the closed italic envelope changes to an open italic envelope.
