Write and send a message
The wireless network may limit the size of MMS messages. If the inserted image
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.
4. To send the message, select Send.
5. Enter the recipient’s phone number in the To: field. To retrieve a phone number
from Contacts, select Add > Contact. To send the message to multiple recipients,
add the desired contacts one by one. To send the message to persons in a
group, select Contact group and the desired group. To retrieve the contacts to
which you recently sent messages, select Add > Recently used.
Copyright protections may prevent some images, music (including ringing tones),
and other content from being copied, modified, transferred, or forwarded.
When you finish writing your message, to send the message, select Send. The
phone saves the message in the Outbox folder, and the sending starts. If you
select Save sent messages > Yes, the sent message is saved in the Sent items
folder. See "General settings," p. 31.
Note: When the phone is sending the message, the animated is
displayed. 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.
It takes more time to send a multimedia message than to send a text message.
While the message is being sent, you can use other functions on the phone. If an
interruption occurs while the message is being sent, the phone tries to resend the
message a few times. If these attempts fail, the message remains in the Outbox
folder. You can try to resend it later.
Cancel message sending
To cancel the sending of the messages in the Outbox folder, scroll to the desired
message, and select Options > Cancel sending.
