Multimedia messages
Note: Only devices that have compatible features can receive and
display multimedia messages. The appearance of a message may vary
depending on the receiving device.
To check availability and to subscribe to the multimedia messaging
service (MMS), contact your service provider. See Multimedia messages
p. 44.
A multimedia message can contain text, sound, pictures, video clips, a
business card, and a calendar note. If the message is too large, the
phone may not be able to receive it. Some networks allow text messages
that include an internet address where you can view the multimedia
message.
You cannot receive multimedia messages during a call or an active
browsing session over GSM data. Because delivery of multimedia
messages can fail for various reasons, do not rely solely upon them for
essential communications.
Write and send a MMS message
The wireless network may limit the size of MMS messages. If the inserted picture
exceeds this limit, the device may make it smaller so that it can be sent by MMS.
1. Select Menu > Messaging > Create message > Multimedia.
2. Enter your message.
Your phone supports multimedia messages that contain several
pages (slides). A message can contain a calendar note and a business
card as attachments. A slide can contain text, one image, and one
sound clip; or text and a video clip. To insert a slide in the message,
select New; or select Options > Insert > Slide.
To insert a file in the message, select Insert; or select Options >
Insert.
3. To view the message before sending it, select Options > Preview.
