■ Messages

The message services can
only be used if they are
supported by your network or your
service provider.
Note: When sending
messages, your phone may
display the words Message
sent. This is an indication
that the message has been
sent by your device to the
message centre number
programmed into your
device. This is not an
indication that the message
has been received at the
intended destination. For
more details about
messaging services, check
with your service provider.
Important: Exercise caution
opening messages.
Messages may contain
malicious software or
otherwise be harmful to
your device or PC.
Only devices that have compatible
features can receive and display
messages. The appearance of a
message may vary depending on the
receiving device.

Text messages (SMS)

Using the short message service
(SMS) you can send and receive
multipart messages made of several
ordinary text messages (network
service) that can contain pictures.
Before you can send any text,
picture, or e-mail message, you must
save your message centre number.
See "Message settings", page 26.
To check SMS e-mail service
availability and to subscribe to the
service, contact your service
provider. To save an e-mail address
in Contacts, see "Save numbers,
items, or an image", page 28.
Your device supports the sending of
text messages beyond the character
limit for a single message. Longer
messages will be sent as a series of
two or more messages. Your service
provider may charge accordingly.
Characters that use accents or other
marks, and characters from some
language options like Chinese, take
up more space limiting the number
of characters that can be sent in a
single message.
