Receiving text messages

Text messages are automatically received when the phone function is turned on. When the phone is turned off, text messages are held by your wireless service provider until the next time the phone is turned on.

Threaded text messaging

Text messages that are sent to and received from a contact (or number) are grouped as a single thread in your inbox. Threaded text messaging lets you see exchanged messages (similar to a chat program) with a contact on the screen.
