SMS Lenght!!!

Hi guys, when I am sending a SMS, after 45 or 50 characters, it says two messages, suddenly, 3 messages...do you know why? Before the ICS upgrade I used to send SMS 140 characters and it was only one SMS, and now I have to pay 3, thanks in advance!

it seems to be an operator/network issue, where special characters count as 2 or 3

So, it is not an ICS update? because where I live, there is not ICS yet. Mexico

I'm confused do you have ICS or you don't have ICS?

you could repair your phone with SUS or PCC and see if the issue it's gone
