SMS, EMS and MMS messaging
For technical specifications, see Short message service (SMS) on page 70, Enhanced message service
(EMS) on page 71, and Multimedia messaging service (MMS) on page 72.
SMS, EMS, and MMS messages as well as Local Information, and beamed and auto configuration
messages are all stored in one unified Inbox in Messaging.
Area Information
Area information is SMS Cell Broadcasting.
An SMS cell broadcast allows information to be
sent to all mobile phones in a particular
geographical area. Information such as traffic news
or local weather reports can be sent to an area
covered by a single cell or to the entire network.
Broadcast messages are organised into a number
of channels. This allows different types of
messages to be broadcasted on different channels.
Using the phone, users can choose which
broadcast channels to subscribe to. The requested
text messages are received, the message either
scrolls across the Standby screen or is placed in
the Inbox. The user can choose to save the
message to the Inbox or not.
SMS (Short
Message
Service)
A user can send messages containing up to 160 characters to and from GSM mobile
stations (up to 70 characters using unicode text). G900c also supports concatenated
SMS messages, that is, a user can write a longer message and G900c will
automatically send it using as many SMS messages that are needed. The user can
reply to an SMS message with an MMS message and send a fax using the SMS
message as the bearer. There is enhanced support for delivery reports and short
message class support.
EMS (Enhanced
Messaging
Service)
Adds powerful functionality to the well-known SMS standard. An EMS message may
include sounds and melodies, pictures and animations and formatted text. Also EMS
messages can be sent as concatenated messages.
MMS
(Multimedia
Messaging
Service)
MMS messages may include combinations of video clips, animations, pictures,
sounds and text. The following tasks can be performed using this service: smart
uploads and downloads, automatic transmission when leaving Flight mode, video
recording directly from the MMS application, background transmission, direct link use
(customized shortcuts to an Operator’s Web site to get new templates), and replying
to MMS messages with SMS messages.
When creating MMS messages, Picture Editor is used for editing inserted JPEG, PNG,
GIF and BMP images as well as for creating simple JPEG images from scratch. It is
possible to crop, rotate and resize images. The editor also includes fun layers, clip art
and tools for drawing on the image using the stylus. Different pen sizes and colours
are available, as well as a text tool for formatting and inserting text into an image. A
simpler version of Picture Editor is used for creating images for EMS messages.
