Also, to use text messaging, you must have the phone number of your message service center available. The phone can store up to 30 text messages, with a maximum of about 1,900 characters for all messages combined. Contact your network operator for details about the text messaging service and the maximum number of characters allowed in a message.
The network may have its own default message that is displayed when the phone is in the network coverage area. This does not prevent the use of your phone in any way.
