Messaging

Using text and multimedia messaging

You can send and receive text messages from your phone using SMS (Short
Message Service). If your subscription includes MMS (Multimedia Messaging
Service), you can also send and receive messages that contain media files, for
example, pictures and videos. The number of characters you can send in a single text
message varies depending on the operator and the language you use. If you exceed
the character limit, then all your single messages are linked together and sent as one
message. You are charged for each single text message you send. When you view
your messages, they appear as conversations, which means that all messages to and
from a particular person are grouped together.
To send multimedia messages, you need the correct MMS settings in your phone. See Internet
and messaging settings on page 31.
