MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES
A multimedia message can contain text and one image, sound clip, video clip or a slide. This
function can be used only if it is supported by your service provider. Only phones that offer
compatible multimedia message features can receive and display multimedia messages.
The phone supports multimedia messages that are up to 100 kB in size. If the message
contains an image, the phone scales it down to fit the display area. If the maximum size is
exceeded, the phone may not be able to receive the message. Some service providers send
a text message with a link or Internet address where you can view the multimedia message.
Note: If Allow multimedia reception is set to Yes or In home network, your
operator or service provider may charge you for each message you receive.
Multimedia messaging works with the following formats:
Picture: JPEG, GIF, WBMP, BMP, PNG, and OTA-BMP
Sound: scalable polyphonic MIDI (SP-MIDI), AMR audio and monophonic ringing tones
Video clips in H.263 format with SubQCIF image size and AMR audio
The phone does not necessarily support all variations of the listed file formats. If a received
message contains any unsupported elements, they may be replaced with the file name and
the text Object format not supported.
You cannot receive any multimedia messages if you have a call in progress, a game or
another Java application running, or if you have an active browsing session over GSM data.
Because delivery of multimedia messages can fail for a variety of reasons, do not rely solely
upon them for essential communications.
Your phone allows you to send and receive multimedia messages that contain several pages,
or slides. To insert a slide into a message, select Options > Insert > Slide. Each slide can
contain text, one image and one sound clip. To move the text part to the top or bottom of
the message, select Options > Text on top or Options > Text on bottom.
Copyright protections may prevent some images, ringing tones, or other content from being
copied, modified, transferred or forwarded.
