have this capability:
• short text messages*

You can choose to send My Info and contact
information to any Private ID.
You can choose to send pictures, messages,
events to the Private ID you are engaged in a

each of these items. Your phone saves this

recent calls list or is saved in your Contacts. Your
phone updates the saved information each time
you make or receive a call to or from that Private
ID.
You can turn your phone's ability to send and
receive messages, pictures, events on and off. See
