Sending and Receiving Messages

The Smartphone immediately sends text messages when you select Send on the New Message screen. When you receive a message, the new message icon appears at the top of the screen. The Smartphone automatically receives text messages whenever it is turned on. If you recieve a text message during a call or data session, your phone notifies you after the call or data session has ended. If your phone is powered off when you receive a text message, your phone notifies you the next time you power it on. If you are out of your coverage area, your phone alerts you when you return to your coverage area.

For media messages, there are 2 modes of sending and receiving messages: automatically and manually.

In automatic mode, messages are sent automatically when you select Send on the New Message screen. In manual mode, messages are moved to Outbox and will be sent the next time you select Send/Receive.

In automatic mode, messages are received automatically. An exception to this is when an application that uses a wireless data connection is in use. For example, if Pocket Internet Explorer is downloading a Web page, it will prevent a media message from being downloaded automatically. In manual mode, you will receive a notification with instructions on how to download the media message.

Note: Media messages cannot be sent or received during a phone call if you are in manual mode.
