Messages
If the maximum size is exceeded, the phone may not be able to receive the
message. Depending upon your network, you may receive a message that includes
an Internet address where you can go to view the multimedia message. Pictures are
scaled to fit the display area of the phone. Your phone has a multimedia message
viewer for playing messages and a multimedia inbox for storing saved messages.
Once you save the multimedia message, you can use the image as a screen saver
or the sound as a ringing tone.
Note: Only devices that offer compatible multimedia message or e-mail
features 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.
Multimedia messaging supports the following formats:
• Picture: JPEG, GIF, PNG, OTA-BMP, and WBMP
• Sound: SP-MIDI and monophonic ringing tones
You are not able to receive any multimedia messages if you have a call in progress,
a game or a Java application running, or an active service connection. Because
delivery of multimedia messages can fail for a variety of reasons, do not rely solely
upon them for essential communications.
