About text message services

Text messages can be sent or received even during voice or data calls. Messages can be read in any mobile phone that has this capability. If the phone receiving the message is switched off at the time of sending, the message centre

continues to attempt to send the message until the validity period allowed by the network expires.

If you want to send text you have written or edited in another application as a text message, all embedded objects or any rich text formatting will be lost. You cannot send attachments as text messages, either.
