This menu allows you to create, send, read and 
save messages with the Short Message Service 
(SMS: text message), Enhanced Message Service 
(EMS: message including simple image, animation 
or melody) and Multimedia Message Service
(MMS: message supporting the presentation of 
various media types, such as full colour images and 
polyphonic ring tones). Voice mails are also 
available. 

Note: This feature is only available if your service 

provider’s network supports it. Contact your 
service provider for more information.

Short message service (SMS) allows you to send 
and receive short text messages to and from other 
GSM mobile phones. In addition, your phone 
supports the Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS), 
which enables you to make short messages 
consisting of simple pictures, melodies, animations 
and styled text all of which adds a new dimension to 
simple text messages. 

To send text messages by phone, you must obtain 
the number of the SMS centre from your service 
provider.

When you receive 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 96.

To read the new message(s) immediately, press the 
View soft key. The list of the messages appears.

Note: To clear the new message notification on the 

display, press the 

 key. 

Inbox and Outbox share a given amount of memory 
in your phone or SIM card. When the message 
memory is full, the New message icon (

) blinks 

and an error message displays. (It disappears when 
you press the 

 key, but it reappears if you don’t 

delete old messages.) In this case, you cannot 
receive any new messages. You must delete one or 
more old messages to get free memory for new 
messages using the Delete option within Inbox or 
Outbox or the Delete all option; for further details, 
see page 72.

Your phone receives incoming messages and saves 
them in Inbox. SMS is usually saved in the SIM 
card, but if the SIM memory is full, the incoming 
messages will be saved in the phone’s memory.

When the Inbox menu is selected, the list of 
messages received displays with the:

• sender’s phone number, or name if stored in 

Phonebook.

• message status; 

 for a read message, 

 for a 

message to read or 

 for an incomplete 

message.
