Messaging Settings
Staying connected to your friends and family has never been easier. With your phone’s advanced messaging capabilities, you can send and receive many different kinds of messages. (For more information, see “Using SMS Text Messaging” on page 156 and “Messaging” on page 170.)
Your phone’s messaging settings make text messaging even faster and easier by letting you decide how you would like to be notified of new messages, create a signature with each sent message, and create your own preset (canned) messages, to name just a few.
Setting the Message Notification Display
When you receive a text message, your phone notifies you by displaying an icon on your display screen. You can also choose to be notified with a message notification on your display screen.
To set the message notification display:
1.Press > Settings > Messaging > Notification.
2.Select Msgs and Icon or Icon Only.
Managing Preset Messages
Your phone is loaded with 20 preset messages each in English and Spanish to help make sending text messages faster and easier. These messages, such as “Where are you?,” “Let’s get lunch,” and “Meet me at,” can be customized or deleted to suit your needs.
