Step 1
Pay attention to the peculiarities of Chinese cellular communications, which can significantly affect your decision to send an SMS message in the future. Many residents of this side simply do not use the service of sending short text messages, it is not included in the package of starting services, therefore some of your unsuccessful attempts to send SMS may be mistaken for entering the number incorrectly. Make sure that the subscriber to whom you want to send the short text message has this function enabled.
Step 2
Please note that most operators have limited reception of text messages from subscribers in other countries. First, make sure that the subscriber to whom the given SMS message is intended not only has this service activated, but is also supported by the serving cellular operator.
Step 3
Enter the subscriber's number in the recipient line. If the number is in federal format (eleven-digit), insert the code +86 (PRC code) before it. Enter the main text of the message using the Latin alphabet (when using the Cyrillic alphabet, the encoding may be lost). Set up receiving a notification in about an hour if you are not sure that this subscriber should receive your message.
Step 4
Also use special online services to send a short text message to China. Before sending messages to other countries, always check with the recipient if this function is enabled and if there are any other problems related to limiting the use of this function, since this is not unique to China.
Step 5
It is also advisable to double-check the number to which you are sending. Don't use hieroglyphs for your messages. Even if it is supported by both devices. The encoding can get lost.
