messages. You must obtain this number from your service
provider.
• Validity period (SIM dependent): allows you to set the length
of time your text messages are stored at the message center
while attempts are made to deliver them.
• Message type (SIM dependent): allows you to view the type of
message sent.
• Reply path: allows the recipient of your message to send you a
reply message using your message center, if your network
supports this service.
• Delivery report (SIM dependent): allows you to activate or
deactivate the report function. When this function is activated,
the network informs you whether or not your message has
been delivered.
• Character support: allows you to select a character encoding
type, either GSM-alphabet, Uni-code, or Automatic. If you
select Automatic, the phone automatically changes the
encoding type from GSM-alphabet to Uni-code when you enter
a Uni-code character.
When you select Uni-code, the maximum number of
characters that can be in a message is reduced to
approximately half. If your recipient’s phone does not
support Uni-code characters, he/she may not be able to
read your message correctly.
Note: If your phone doesn’t have the Character support menu, the phone
provides the Automatic character encoding by default.
