Receiving messages
When your phone is turned on and is in an
area of wireless coverage, you
automatically receive new text messages.
For multimedia messages, you can set
your smartphone to automatically
download new messages or to notify you
that a message is ready to be downloaded
(see Customizing your Messaging
settings). You can also configure how your
smartphone notifies you when a new
message arrives (see Selecting Messaging
alert tones).
The new message alert may include any of
the following buttons:
OK: Dismisses the alert and places the
message in your Inbox.
Reply: Opens Chat View, where you can
reply with a text message. To send an
MMS reply, select Add from Chat View.
Call Back: Dials the sender’s phone
number.
Go To Msg: Opens the message so you
can view its full contents.
Delete: Moves the message from your
Inbox to the Deleted folder.
