Messages (Menu 1)

If you have subscribed to a message service, you can send and receive messages to compatible phones that are also subscribed to a message service. You can also send and receive picture messages, multimedia messages, and e-mail if supported by your network. Also, you can make distribution lists that contain phone numbers and names in your Contacts. Standard text messages can be up to 160 characters in length. See “Text entry” on page 31 for more information.

Note: When your phone is dedicated to a call in progress, a Java application (such as a game), or an active browser connection, then the phone cannot receive multimedia messages.

• LINKED MESSAGES

Your phone can send and receive long text messages (up to 450 characters). Text messages that exceed 160 characters are automatically split into multiple messages and sent as a series. The series of messages is linked by the compatible phone when received and displayed as a single SMS message. For this feature to work properly, the receiving phone must also support linked messages.

While receiving linked messages, you can start reading the first part before the phone has received the entire message. While viewing a linked message, you can start reading the first part before the phone has received the entire message. While viewing the message, you may see *some text missing* on the display. This is normal, and the message content will be updated as soon as the missing sequence arrives.

If the memory is full, you may have to delete a message from your inbox or outbox before your phone can update the missing text. See “Delete messages” on page 52 for more information.
