Chat
Note: This function can be
used only if it is supported
by your network operator or
service provider. Only
phones that offer
compatible chat features
can receive and display chat
messages.
Chat is a way of sending short,
simple text messages that are
delivered over TCP/IP protocols to
online users (network service). Your
contact list shows you when the
contacts on the list are online and
available to participate in a chat
conversation. When you have
written and sent your message, it
stays on the display. The reply
message appears below your original
message.
Before you can use chat, you need to
subscribe to the service. To check the
availability, charging and to
subscribe to the service, contact
your network operator or service
provider, from whom you also
receive your unique ID and password
and the settings for the chat.
To set the required settings for the
chat service, see ”Chat and Presence
settings” on page 61.
While you have connected to the
chat service, you can use the other
functions of the phone, and the chat
session is active in the background.
Chat uses shared memory, see
”Shared memory” on page xii.
