5. Messaging
If you have subscribed to a message network service, you can send and receive
messages to and from compatible phones that also subscribe to a message service.
You can also send and receive multimedia and e-mail messages.
Important: Exercise caution when opening messages. Messages may
contain malicious software or otherwise be harmful to your device.
Note: The message sent icon or text on your device screen does not
indicate that the message is received at the intended destination.
■ Text Messages
When composing text messages (SMS) or enhanced messages (EMS, messages
that can contain simple pictures, sounds, animations, or melodies), the number of
characters used (out of a maximum per message) appears in the top left corner of
the message screen. Segments are created when the message length exceeds the
maximum allowed number of characters. The number of segments used (out of a
maximum of 7) appears in the top right corner of the message screen. No
additional text can be entered when all segments and characters have been used.
Segments are delivered as individual messages. For information on entering text
into messages, see "Text Entry", p. 23.
■ Picture Messages
Picture messages are multimedia messages that can contain text, pictures,
camera pictures, slides, and sound recordings. Depending upon your network
services, you may receive a message that includes an internet address where you
can view the picture messages.
Pictures are scaled to fit the display area. Your phone has a picture message
viewer for playing messages. Incoming messages remain in the inbox until you
delete them (when Auto Erase Inbox is set to off, see "Message Settings", p. 35).
When you save the picture message, you can use the image as wallpaper or use
the sound as a ringtone, unless the content is protected by copyright.
See "Pictures", p. 26.
Note: Only devices that have compatible features can receive and display
multimedia messages. The appearance of a message may vary depending
on the receiving device.
