Text Messages - Nokia 3300 User Manual

Text messages

A standard text message can be up to 160 characters in length. If you want
to send a long text message (more than 160 characters), you can enter 160
characters in up to five messages that are sent as a series of linked messages.
The number of available characters and the current part number of a linked
message are shown on the top right of the display. For example: 160/1;
125/2; 136/3; 125/4; and 125/5.
Using special (Unicode) characters such as ë, â, á, ì take up more space. If there
are special characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message
length correctly. Before the message is sent, the device tells you if the message
exceeds the maximum length allowed for one message. You can cancel sending
by pressing Cancel or you can save the message in the inbox.
When the message is received, it is displayed as one text message. For this
feature to work, the receiving phone must also support linked messages.
Contact your service provider to subscribe to this type of text messaging.
You can also send and receive text messages that contain pictures. Each
picture message is also made up of several text messages. Just like sending
linked text messages, sending one picture message may cost more.
Note: Only devices that offer compatible multimedia message can
receive and display multimedia messages. Multimedia message objects
may contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your device or PC.
Do not open any attachment if you are not sure of the trustworthiness
of the sender.
