Before you can start using instant messaging, you must first subscribe to your
wireless service provider’s text messaging service and register with the instant
messaging service you want to use. You must also obtain a user name and
password before you can use instant messaging. See “Register with an instant
messaging service,” p. 32 for more information.
Depending on both your IM service provider and your wireless service provider,
you may not have access to all of the features described in this guide.
To set the required settings for the instant messaging service, see Connect. settings
in “Access,” p. 32. The icons and texts on the display may vary, depending on the
instant messaging service.
While you are connected to the instant messaging service, you can use the other
functions of the phone, and the instant messaging conversation remains active
in the background. Depending on the network, the active instant messaging
conversation may consume the phone battery faster and you may need to
connect the phone to a charger.
Register with an instant messaging service
You can do this by registering over the internet with the IM service provider you
have selected to use. During the registration process, you will have the opportunity
to create the user name and password of your choice. For more information about
signing up for instant messaging services, contact your wireless service provider.
