Text messages

Your device supports sending text messages beyond the
character limit for a single message. Longer messages are sent as
a series of two or more messages. Your service provider may
charge accordingly. Characters that use accents or other marks
and characters from some language options take up more space,
limiting the number of characters that can be sent in a single
message.

An indicator at the top of the display shows the total
number of characters left and the number of messages
needed for sending. For example, 673/2 means that there
are 673 characters left and that the message will be sent
as a series of 2 messages.

The blinking

indicates that the message memory is full.

Before you can receive new messages, delete some of your
old messages.

Multimedia messages

Only devices that have compatible features can receive and
display multimedia messages. The appearance of a message may
vary depending on the receiving device.

The wireless network may limit the size of MMS (multimedia
messaging service) messages. If the inserted picture exceeds this
limit, the device may make it smaller so that it can be sent by
MMS.

A multimedia message can contain text, pictures, sound
clips, and video clips.
