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 or e-mail
message, you need to save some message settings. See Message settings p. 51.
To check SMS e-mail service availability and to subscribe to the service, contact your service provider.
Text entry
To enter text while writing messages, use traditional or predictive text input. When using traditional text input,
press a number key, 1 to 9, repeatedly until the character you want is displayed. In predictive text input you
can enter a letter with a single key press.
