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 text messages without placing a voice call. (For more information, see “Using SMS Text Messaging”on page 150.)

Your phone’s messaging settings make text messaging even faster and easier. Now you can choose how you would like to be notified of new messages, automatically append a callback number and/or a customized signature with each outgoing message, and create and edit your phone's canned messages.
