Messaging
You can read, write, send and save text and multimedia
messages, e-mail, audio and flash messages. The messaging
services can only be used if they are supported by your
network or service provider.
Text and multimedia messages
You can create a message and optionally attach, for example,
a picture. Your phone automatically changes a text message
to a multimedia message when a file is attached.
Text messages
Your device supports text messages beyond the limit for a
single message. Longer messages are sent as two or more
messages. Your service provider may charge accordingly.
Characters with accents, other marks, or some language
options take more space, and limit the number of characters
that can be sent in a single message.
The total number of characters left and the number of
messages needed for sending are displayed.
To send messages, the correct message centre number must
be stored in your device. Normally, this number is set by
default through your SIM card. To set the number manually,
select Menu > Messaging > Msg. settings > Text
messages > Message centres > Add centre , and enter a
name and the number from the service provider.
