Overcome 70 character limit when sending non-english SMS in Android

597 Views Asked by At

Currently i'm using SmsManager's sendTextMessage.

Messages may contain non-english characters, but all of the characters are part of the GSM 7bit alphabet.

Is there a way to overcome the 70 chars (UTF-8) limit and create a 160 chars message? Is creating a PDU based SMS the only way to go, or this can be done in another way? I couldn't find any examples online, are there any?

Any help would be deeply appreciated...
