40 Using Your Mini 5 Device
Receiving text and multimedia messages
Depending on your notification settings, the device rings, vibrates, or displays
a message briefly in the status bar as a new text or multimedia message
arrives.
A new message icon
then appears and stays in the notifications area of
the status bar to remind you of a new message.
NOTE: To alter notification settings for new messages, in the Messaging
application touch the Menu button → Settings → Notifications. You can then
decide whether to receive a text notification in the status bar when a new message
arrives, select a ringtone that rings with the arrival of a new message, or let the
device vibrate to report a new message.
Text and multimedia messages that are sent to and received from the same
contact or a number are grouped into message threads similar to text
conversations of an online chat. You can see all of the messages exchanged
between you and the contact. Message threads are listed according to when
they are sent or received, with the latest one at the top.
To read a text message
• Touch the notification area on the status bar where the new message icon
is displayed. A list of notifications opens. Touch a new message
notification to open and read the message.
•
Touch
→
Messaging to open
the message list, and then touch a
text message or message thread to open and read it.
If the message contains:
• Web site—touch the link to open the
Browser
application and visit the
web site.
• Phone number—touch the number to open the
Phone
application and call
the number.
• E-mail address—touch the e-mail address to open the
Email
application
and compose an e-mail to send to the address.
