Messaging

Now you can send and receive email and text messages and participate in Web-based chatrooms right from your PCS Phone. Messaging allows you to stay connected to friends, family, and co-workers 24 hours a day with always-on text capabilities anywhere on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.

Message Types

There are many types of text messaging available on your

phone. (PCS Voicemail provides voicemail-to-mailbox messaging. For information on using your phone’s voicemail feature, see “Using Voicemail” on page 130.)

Messages

These appear on your screen as Notifications and include numeric messages (pages), Messages, Updates, and Mail.

New Messages

When you receive a new Message, your phone will alert you. Press View (left softkey) to display the message details.

Press Call (left softkey) to dial the phone number.

Press Go (left softkey) to go to the Website.

Press Cancel (right softkey) to return to the message folder list.

Message Storage

Your PCS Phone can store up to 200 Messages. When the message memory is 90% full, a warning message prompts you to erase messages to obtain additional memory space.

Note: Unread messages will not be automatically deleted when Messages capacity has been reached. If your phone has 200 messages, any new text messages will be returned.
