An SMS-compatible number is a phone number that your service provider enables for SMS. You can send SMS messages to contacts who have SMS-compatible phone numbers. Note: If your BlackBerry® device supports sending SMS messages to email addresses, you can also send SMS messages to contacts who have email addresses. Find your SMS number In the phone, the My Number field displays your phone number. If your BlackBerry® device is enabled for SMS, this number is also your SMS number. Type an SMS number Contact your service provider for more information about SMS number format. Your service provider might require that all SMS numbers include the area code and other prefixes.
