Multimedia Messages; Writing And Sending A Multimedia Message - Nokia 6800 User Manual

Multimedia messages

Note: This function can be used only if it is supported by your network
operator or service provider. Only phones that offer compatible multimedia
message features can receive and display multimedia messages.
You can send multimedia messages containing text and a picture and receive
multimedia messages containing text, a polyphonic ringing tone, and a picture. The
phone supports multimedia messages that are up to 45 KB in size. If the maximum
size is exceeded, the phone may not be able to receive the message. Depending on
the network, you may receive a text message that includes an Internet address
where you can view the multimedia message.
If the message contains a picture that is larger than the display area, the phone
scales it down to fit the display area.
Note: If Allow multimedia reception is set to Yes or In home network, your
operator or service provider may charge you for every message you receive.
Multimedia messaging supports the following formats:
• Picture: JPEG, GIF, PNG and BMP.
• Sound: Scalable polyphonic MIDI (SP-MIDI) and monophonic ringing tones.
If a received message contains any unsupported elements, they may be replaced
with the file name and the text Object format not supported.
Note that you are not able to receive any multimedia messages if you have a call
in progress, a game or another Java application running, or an active WAP connection
over GSM data. Because delivery of multimedia messages can fail for a variety of
reasons, do not rely solely upon them for essential communications.
