SMS text messaging works only on El Capitan

Recently, I spent my iPhone to a basic cell phone.

not Verizon data use my iPhone as an iPod Touch - with wi - fi.

I tried to send SMS from my MacBook Pro in El Capitan via iMessage for my cell phone and all simply not possible.  I get message is not available.  I even go CONTACTS and changed my iPhone for mobile phone number.  Just won't work.

All support implies that the use of SMS Texting of El Capitan, you must have an iPhone to send it through--and that the iPhone is not connect to a telephone network - can not do.  Excellent idea of a point of view marketing, but it does mean Apple says that I have a working iPhone with cellular service to send text messages SMS of my MacBook?

Bad idea.

Yes SMS on Mac is supported only if you have a full functional iPhone.

SMS grafted on a line of phone your provider in order to work.

It's not marketing, it's how SMS works.

    The items that you have saved on the media card do not count for the memory of the device. You can check the device memory by going to Options | Status and take note of your free file number. Then reset the unit by removing the battery and 1 min and replace it and let the device restarts. After that he did check and see if your free file number has increased.

    Also do you have a lot of third party applications on the device that you don't need? If so you can do in the Options | Advanced options | Applications and delete those you no longer need.
