IS Free SMS possible ?

Hi
I am a T mobile USA costumer, I am using the latest NBD 8.3 Rom. I saw a program called SMS service and under it i saw send SMS using GPRS. If i enable it can i send free SMS using Tzones. Since I dont have Tzones can anybody in this Forum who has Tzones try this and give me a reply.
Actually, if you're able to access the internet through GPRS, anyone can send free sms's, it doesn't matter if you're on t-zones or not. All you have to do is put this link - http://sites.mobile.yahoo.com/sms/sendsms in ie and you can send and recieve all the free sms's you want over GPRS.
US only?
This only seems to work for US numbers ?
u can only send but u cannot receive on yahoo SMS, did any body try the option i said before?
I don't have NBD 8.3 since I cook my own ROMs and I can't seem to find a copy of it to try out or I'd try it for you.
You can recieve SMS's on it, you just need to refresh the screen since it's made for PC use and your PPC screen doesn't refresh itself.
To get it to work in different countries, you probably just need to go to your countries yahoo page and find it's link to it's free sms service. -- I just check for links from other countries and couldn't find any for yahoo free sms so this might only be a US thing.

Have you tried using google voice? There is an sms option, it's in browser though so I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for.

An SMS is an SMS. It doesn't matter which method is used to send it, the recipient will receive it on whatever phone they own. As mentioned above you can send it via IM, Website..etc.
Doesn't Skype have this ability?

What he's saying is that he wants a slice of the free cake I guess.
He wants to be able to send something (which costs the network operator money to send it to someone else) for free.
I guess there's nothing like that for you, sir.
I do know that certain network operators in my region (Singtel, Starhub of Singpaore and Maxis, Digi of Malaysia) allow customers to connect to their website and send a WebSMS from their own sites but there is a certain limit a day. However, this only applies to SMS sent to their customers who are on their communication network though.
maybe you can try textplus. Search for it on Market because the system doesn't allow me to post outside link 'cause i'm new user try it!
Im looking for something like text plus but in this app I can send a free sms only to usa and canada. Im looking for something what will work in UK

We know what he's asking and he's already been told how! Several times with many different methods.

Is your Google broken?

I do not want to be repetitive or annoying, but ...

Will Someone find a way to send messages on the Nexus S? I tried several sites but I did not understand much, and now I commend you to your esteemed forum for developers. For now I use an application (jaxtrsms) that sends text messages for free, but it is bad because it is always in memory and will not let me complete management.
My question is: when upgrading to google ICS will solve the problem?
There are already solutions to the failure to send text messages (frustrating!!)? If yes, someone can help me?
BIG THANKS
There are 3 ways I know of to message:
SMS through your carrier
SMS through Google Voice (free)
Gtalk or other web-based client (free)
However, you need data connectivity for all web-based methods above. So either wifi of 2/3G/4G through your carrier. Other than that I have no idea on what you're actually asking for.

(question) hello sms. Various questions

Good afternoon guys. I came across an interesting sms app yesterday and decided to give it a try. It's hello sms. I loved the design, simplicity and very easy to use. However I was really confused with some aspects of the app.
1). It says it's an sms app, but it's often compared to a messing app like whatsapp. I was able to send sms, but it says that it's free of charge if the other person has hello sms as well. So if the other person doesn't have it, what's the charge per sms? Would I see some type of fees on my Sprint phone bill? The developers don't provide much info and description on the play store. I tried to contact the developers by email twice and no damn response. If someone is using this app please share your experience. And wether or not it's free or costs money.
Thanks
