Messaging
Your SMS (text message) and MMS (multimedia
messaging service) are combined into one menu in
Messages.
Message Box
Instead of an inbox and outbox, your phone organizes
all messages you sent and received into one box,
where messages exchanged with the same number
are grouped into one message thread in the messages
screen. You can tap a thread to see the conversation
you have had with someone.
Message threads are sorted in chronological order with
the latest one on top.
Sending a Message
1. Press the Home Key > Messages.
2. Tap New message.
3. Enter the recipient's number or name. As you type,
matching contacts will appear. Tap a suggested
contact to add as a recipient.
4. Tap Type to compose and type your message.
• Press the Menu Key to insert Quick Text,
signature, smiley, or contact.
• If you are sending an MMS, press the Menu Key
to add a subject, or attach pictures, videos, audio,
or slideshows.
5. Tap Send to send your message.

NOTE:
Add an attachment to text message and it
will be converted into an MMS automatically. Likewise
if you remove all attachments and the subject from an
MMS, it'll automatically become a text message.
