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 193.) 
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.

phone notify you by playing an audible alert.
