Messaging Settings
Staying connected to your friends and family has never
been easier. With your phone’s advanced messaging
capabilities, you can send and receive many different kinds
of text messages without placing a voice call. (For more
information, see “Accessing Messaging” on page 218.)
Your phone’s messaging settings make text messaging
even faster and easier by letting you decide how you
would like to be notified of new messages, create a
signature with each sent message, and create your own
canned messages, to name just a few.
