Enhanced messages
Enhanced messaging is a Network Service. If your wireless service provider supports
this feature, enhanced messaging functions in the same manner as text messaging,
but it offers additional options for the style and content of the message.
While creating an enhanced message, the following options are available:
Add-ins—Select Sound, Animation, or Picture to add to the message.
Styles—Select Font type, Font size, or Text alignment of the message.
Note: If you try to send an enhanced message to a phone that does not
support enhanced messaging, the enhanced messaging content will be
stripped from the message, leaving only the text you have entered.
While viewing a received enhanced message, the following options are available:
Sound—Select Play sound or Save sound.
Picture—Select Save picture.
Animation—Select Save animation.
You can send messages that exceed 160 characters, which will be sent as a series
of two or more messages, also known as a linked message. In the navigation bar,
you can see the message length indicator counting backwards from 160. For
example, 10 (2) means that you can still add 10 characters for the text to be sent
as two messages.
Using special (Unicode) characters take up more space. If there are special
characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message length
correctly. Before the message is sent, the phone will tell you if the message exceeds
the maximum length allowed for one message. Cancel sending by pressing Cancel
or save the message in the inbox.
• MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES
A multimedia message (MMS) is a Network Service. If your wireless service provider
supports this feature, then the message can contain text, sound, and a picture. Your
phone supports multimedia messages that are up to 45 kB. If the maximum size is
exceeded, the phone may not be able to receive the message. Once you save the
multimedia message, you can use the image as a screen saver or the sound as a
ringing tone. In some networks, you may receive a message that includes an
internet address where you can view the multimedia message.
Note: Only devices that offer compatible multimedia message or e-mail
features can receive and display multimedia messages. Multimedia
message objects may contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your
device or PC. Do not open any attachment if you are not sure of the
trustworthiness of the sender.
Note: When your phone is dedicated to a call in progress, an application
(such as a game), or an active web browser connection, the phone cannot
receive multimedia messages.
The default setting of the multimedia message service is generally on.
Multimedia messaging supports JPEG, GIF, PNG, OTA-BMP and WBMP picture
formats, and SP-MIDI and monophonic ringing tones.
The appearance of a multimedia message may vary depending on the receiving
device.
Copyright protections may prevent some images, ringing tones, and other content
from being copied, modified, transferred, or forwarded.
