About SMS text messages
With an SMS phone number, you can send and receive SMS text messages. An SMS phone number is a phone number that your wireless
service provider sets up for SMS text messaging. If you have more than one phone number associated with your BlackBerry® device, your
device sends SMS text messages using the first phone number that appears in the drop-down list at the top of the Phone screen in the
phone application.
You can send SMS text messages to contacts who have SMS phone numbers. You can also forward SMS text messages as PIN or email
messages.
Find your SMS phone number
In the phone application, your phone number appears at the top of the screen. If your wireless service provider has set up your
BlackBerry® device for SMS text messaging, this number is also your SMS phone number.
If you have more than one phone number associated with your device, the first phone number that appears in the drop-down list at the
top of the screen is your SMS phone number.
