Photo messages
Multimedia Message Service (MMS, photo message
service) is a messaging service very similar to Short
Message Service (SMS, text message service). It
provides asynchronous delivery of personal photo
messages from between phone and phone, phone
and e-mail, phone and web(by URL).
In addition to the familiar text content of text
messages, photo messages can contain images,
graphics, voice and sounds. An MMS message is a
multimedia presentation in a single entry. It is not a
text file with attachments.
Using the MMS feature, your phone can receive
photo messages. You can also send picture
messages. This function is available only if it is
supported by your service provider. Only phones
that offer picture message features can receive and
display picture messages.
Retrieving a new message
When you are retrieving a message, the Retrieving
icon (
) appears on the display. When you finish
retrieving a new message, the New message icon
(
) and a text notification showing the number of
the message appear on the display. You also hear
an alert, depending on the message sound setting;
for further details, see page 80.
To read the new message in Idle Mode, press the
View soft key. And then you see the list in the
Inbox. If you select a message, you can read it.
Notes:
• While retrieving a new message, you cannot access
WAP sites, and cannot also enter the Applications
menu (see page 74).
