- 1). Find out if your cell phone plan lets you send international text messages. If you do not know which plan you have subscribed for, contact your carrier, tell them your account number, and ask them which plan is it and whether it allows international text messages. You can also inquire about the SMS charges.
- 2). Press the main menu key on your phone.
- 3). Go to "Messages" or "Messaging."
- 4). Select "Text message."
- 5). Select "Compose New" or "Create."
- 6). Write the message you want to send to your friend in America.
- 7). Press "Send."
- 8). Provide the recipient's cell phone number. Since you're sending an international text to the United States, you have to provide the area code (three digits) and the seven-digit number. So, the format of the number is 1-(xxx)-xxx-xxxx.
- 9). Confirm that you want to send the message.
