Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for a single
message. Longer messages will be sent as a series of two or more messages. Your service
provider may charge accordingly. 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.
Note: Picture message function can be used only if it is supported by your network
operator or service provider. Only compatible devices that offer picture message
features can receive and display picture messages. The appearance of a message
may vary depending on the receiving device.
At the top of the display, you can see the message length indicator that
tracks the number of characters available. For example, 10/2 means that you can
still add 10 characters for the text to be sent as two messages.
Write and send a SMS message
1. Select Menu > Messages > Create message > Text message.
2. Enter a message. See “Write text,” p. 36. To insert text templates or a picture
into the message, see “Templates,” p. 43. Each picture message comprises
several text messages. Sending one picture or multipart message may cost
more than sending one text message.
3. To send the message, select Send > Recently used, To phone number, To many,
or To e-mail address. To send a message using a predefined message profile,
select Via sending profile. For the message profile, see “Text and SMS e-mail,”
p. 60. Select or enter a phone number or e-mail address, or select a profile.
