Force iMessage to send an SMS?
hello,
in my family now everyone updated to ios5. all works great! iMessage is a huge gift for us because we text a lot. but one person is unlucky with that feature: My Mum. she uses a prepaid card with no internet-connection (like umts or something) (because she said that she doesnt need it... we have internet at home and thats enough for her) however; Now that we are all connected to iMessage i'm no longer able to send a normal SMS to my mum!!! the message app doesnt recognize that my mum is off and just keeps sending iMessages. Is there any hidden trick to fore the app to send as an sms?!? or do i really have to disable imessage on my iphone and reaktivate after sending the sms? if so, please fix this apple ;D
