Create and send a text message
Important: Use this method when sending a message to recipients
in the same wireless network. If the recipient has a different
service provider, you may need to send the message as an e-mail
(see “Create and send an e-mail message” on page 66).
1 From the Start screen, press Menu, then press Select.
2 Select Text messages, then select Write message.
3 Select either Text (up to 160 characters) or Numeric page (message
consists of phone number only).
Note: The ability to send a numerical page may be dependent on
your wireless network. Please contact your service provider for
more information on text messaging in your area.
4 Scroll to Add number, then press Select.
5 Enter the phone number of the recipient, then press OK.
OR
Press Search, highlight the desired number stored in your phone book,
then press Select.
6 Press Options, scroll to Enter text, then press Select.
7 Enter your message.
Tip: Since the network limits the number of characters in a
message, a character counter appears in the upper right-hand
corner of your phone’s display. This phone supports 160 character
SMS messages.
8 To send the message, press Options, then select Send.
USE OTHER OPTIONS
You may use the following as a shortcut for sending a new text message:
1 Enter the recipient’s phone number, then press Options.
2 Scroll to Send message, then press Select. Continue the creation
process as described above.
