possible for users to send enhanced text messages to
users of other makes of mobile phones. EMS makes it
possible for the user to use text formatting (style, size,
alignment and paragraphs) in a text message. At
purchase, the phone is loaded with several pre-defined
images and animations.
Predictive Text Input Software
Text messaging with your T226 is made easier than
ever with the introduction of predictive text input
software. Instead of having to press keys several times
for a letter, software in your T226 chooses from a
dictionary of words and phrases and anticipates what
word or phrase you are writing, giving your mobile
phone keyboard ease of use comparable to that of a
full-size keyboard.
Sleep Mode
After a short period of inactivity, the display changes
to sleep mode to save power.
Memory management
All applications in the phone share the same memory,
allowing for efficient memory usage. When the
memory runs low, the user gets information about the
current memory situation, where each application’s
usage is displayed. In the memory manager menu, the
user can delete items from any application, in order to
set memory free. At purchase, there is approximately
400 KB of memory space available to the user in the
file system for objects such as pictures, games, sounds,
and themes. In addition to the user space, the file
system contains preloaded pictures, games, sounds,
MMS messages, message templates, themes, and WAP
security information. Details depend on market and
customer requirements.
Mobile chat
Mobile chat makes text messaging easier, since a chat-
session opens up immediately when a text message is
received from a phone. Because the user stays
connected during the session, the messages open up
automatically. Previous messages from both persons
are visible on screen, each writer being distinguished
by a nickname.
Picture phonebook
The phonebook lets the user assign a picture and/or a
personal ring signal to a certain phone number. When
the user gets a call from this person, the picture
(instead of the number) is shown in the display.
Events
The Events feature keeps track of important meetings
that you need to attend, phone calls that you need to
make or tasks that you need to do. Twenty items can
be saved. You can also choose to add, reschedule, edit,
send or delete events.
iMelody and Melody Composer
The audio iMelody format enhances the sound quality
in the T226. With this format, the user can play,
compose, edit and send melodies within the improved
Melody Composer. The composer has an improved
graphical user interface to simplify melody handling.
All new and edited melodies are stored in the iMelody
format.
Explanatory Help
The T226 can be pre-loaded with an MMS message
that contains a demonstration of some of the phone’s
features. In addition, an icon glossary is included.
Sound browser
From the Sound browser function, the user can handle
all sounds (for example MIDI, eMelodies, iMelodies
and sound recordings) stored in the phone. The user
can play, send and view information on the sounds.
Ring signals (MIDI, eMelody, iMelody, vMel) can be
downloaded via WAP or exchanged via SMS
(iMelodies) and MMS (MIDI, iMelodies). Sound
recordings can be exchanged via MMS. The maximum
number of sounds is limited only by the amount of free
memory.
Please also see information about the MIDI format
under “Polyphonic ring signals” on page 4.
Camera application
The camera application supports a number of Sony
Ericsson cameras. The user can browse, view, send
and store pictures in the phone. It is also possible to set
different picture sizes.
Themes
With themes, the user can change the appearance of
the display, for example, the text, the background
colors and the background picture. The phone comes
with a number of pre-defined themes. It is possible to
download and exchange additional themes. The
maximum number of themes is limited only by the
amount of free memory.
