If you cannot send messages

You may not be able to send or receive messages if your phone’s memory is nearly full, or if digital service is not available at the time. To free up memory, erase old messages. See “Erasing messages” on page 27.

Understanding appended messages

When you start a message, the maximum character limit appears once you are in the message entry field. This number counts down as you enter characters, until it reaches 0. If you continue to enter text after this counter reaches 0, a message segment may be appended. When you reach the message size limit, you are prompted to edit the message or alerted that the message is being appended.
