Messaging

6. Messaging

You can use mobile messages to keep in touch with friends, family,

and business associates by using the short message service (SMS),

which is a network service. Not all messaging features are available

in all wireless networks. Contact your service provider for

availability and subscription information.

When sending messages, your phone may display the words Message sent. This is

an indication that the message has been sent by your device to the message center

number programmed into your device. This is not an indication that the message

has been received at the intended destination. For more details about messaging

services, check with your service provider.

■ Text messages

Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for

a single message. Longer messages are sent as a series of two or more messages.

Your service provider may charge accordingly. A message length indicator appears

at the top of the phone display. This indicator allows you to see how many characters

are left in the message as you are entering text because it counts backwards from 913.

Characters that use accents or other marks, and characters from some language

options like Chinese, take up more space limiting the number of characters that

can be sent in a single message.

You can use predefined templates to help you write text messages. Before you can

send any text message, you need to save some message settings. See ”Message

settings,” p. 30.
