5. 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. 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.
A message length indicator appears at the top of the phone display. This
indicator allows you to see how many characters remain in the message
as you are entering text. For example, 673/2 means that there are 673
characters left and that the message will be sent as a series of two
messages.
You can use predefined templates to help you write text messages.
Before you can send any text or e-mail messages, you need to configure
the message settings. See “Message settings,” p. 45.
To check SMS e-mail service availability and to subscribe to the service,
contact your service provider.
