MMS
Your mobile phone can also send and receive
MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service)
messages. With MMS you can send messages
that contain pictures, sounds, and text.
When sending MMS messages, your recipient must
also have an MMS-enabled phone in order to be able
to view your message.
Receiving MMS
If someone sends you an MMS, an icon and a sound
alert will inform. If the sender of the message has
asked for a
Read report
, a prompt will ask you to send
it or not. Once the MMS is downloaded, it is available
in
MMS
>
Inbox
(see below).
If the size of the MMS to download is bigger than the
memory available in your phone, you must free
memory by deleting data (picture, sounds, etc.). See
“Memory status” on page 18.
