Question - if I set my iPhone to forward to another cell phone, will SMS messages also get forwarded, or will they only be received by the iPhone?
 
The answer is no mate. Given that you asked the question in the first place would indicate to me that you didn't know the answer.

Too many tadgers on sites like this think everyone should be as geeky as them when it comes to technology. If you don't know something, fair enough.

The first answer you got just makes the guy look foolish and you were quite right to correct him on his punctuation. :D

I don't want to be rude at all, but isn't obvious? For something is called call forwarding. You don't need to be ubber geek to understand that. No offense. Sorry.
 
Call forwarding will forward calls. :D

Lets make him a fool for asking stupid questions. I also hate people who ask stupid question.

You can always try "GOOGLING" it :p
 
Hi Xray

Forward calls forwards calls BUT!

If you have a free wireless on that phone you can download a program that turns your sms into emails and forwards them to your email that way if your new phone has a data plan youll recive sms on your old phone via email on your new phone and because you have forwarded your calls you wont miss anything except mms.

Hope this helps you out regards Brad (se other help issues at iphone.a2z.se)

Kindly tell us about such a 'program'
Any name ? Category of software ?
Cydia ? App store ?

Thank you :)
 
Bitesms has an auto-forward SMS feature. You can even set it to only do it during specified times!

WOW big pic right there :)

thank you

Please tell what version biteSMS that is ?

And I use Tmobile as carrier.... not biteSMS ...
 
I use the latest version of bite, 5.3 I believe?

Bitesms uses your mobile carrier, AT&T Verizon T-Mobile, so it can forward whatever.
