About text message services
Text messages can be sent or received even during voice or
data calls. Messages can be read in any mobile phone that
has this capability. If the phone receiving the message is
switched off at the time of sending, the message centre
continues to attempt to send the message until the
validity period allowed by the network expires.
If you want to send text you have written or edited in
another application as a text message, all embedded
objects or any rich text formatting will be lost. You cannot
send attachments as text messages, either.
