I've checked/searched the forum for a solution to the 70 character SMS with my v200 (flashed from T-mobile's v205) but could not find a solution.

I used the link provided on the forum to obtain a v200 flash, and since then, everything has been working great, EXCEPT for the 70 character SMS.

I'm quite sure it is not a telco provider problem, as I've tried it with 3 different providers in 3 countries.

Could it be the version of the firmware?
