List of SMS Email Extensions

Verizon Wireless
The email extension for Verizon Wireless users is '@vtext.com'---add this extension after the full cell-phone number. When you send a text message to a Verizon customer you have a 160-character limit per text---any email you send longer than that will separate into two or more messages.
AT&T Wireless
You can reach an AT&T Wireless cell-phone account holder by emailing the phone number followed by 'txt.att.net.' Like Verizon, AT&T also has a 160 character limit on each text message. Keep in mind that AT&T Wireless now includes former customers from Alltel and Cingular.
Sprint
Sprint, which merged with Nextel in 2005, has two different extensions for subscribers. Before you attempt to send your message, find out if the person you want to text is a former Nextel customer first. Use '@messaging.sprintpcs.com' to send a text message via email to a Sprint user and '@messaging.nextel.com' if it's a former Nextel customer. In either case, the message size limit is 500 characters for Sprint (and Nextel) users.
T-Mobile
T-Mobile, another popular mobile service, also allows you to send short messages via email. If you need to send your text message via T-Mobile, type '@tmomail.net' after the full cell-phone number. T-Mobile permits 160 characters per text.

How to Ping Pinpoint a Cell Phone

1. Acquire the phone's number. If you wish to find out where a cell phone is located by pinging it, you first need to know the number assigned to it. This can be found out by asking the person. Or, if it's your phone, you can call your service provider and ask for the number associated with your phone (if you don't already know it).
2. Ask the cellular phone service provider to pinpoint your phone. Because phones automatically ping when they are turned on and when they make calls, you don't have to initiate any type of ping and can simply ask to have them located.
3. Supply any information or get consent from the owner of the cell phone and acquire the cell phone's location. If you can't get the consent or the correct information, move on to the next step.
4. Determine if the cell phone has a GPS tracking chip. All U.S.-manufactured cell phones made after 2005 have a GPS tracking device. This became standard due to the events of 9/11.
5. Find a GPS tracking service. There are many online that require payment to use, such as AccuTracking, and some are free, like BuddyWay.
6. Install the software that came from the tracking service's website onto the phone or phones you wish to trace.
7. Log in to the website of your tracking service and get the coordinates for the phone. Some sites offer more statistics, such as recent locations, the amount of battery power and the current route if the cell phone is moving.

How to Upgrade a Cricket Phone

1. Select the model phone that you would like, and compare it with other models to ensure you are getting the best deal. Check and make sure it is compatible with Cricket Wireless before you buy it. Research the phone to make your best selection possible.
2. Buy the phone either from Cricket, or via a third party vendor. Select a third party vendor that you know is reliable, because otherwise you could purchase a phone that is not up to par.

You can go to a Cricket store or a wireless store affiliated with the Cricket company and get it activated, call Cricket's customer service to activate the phone or activate the phone online.
