Text messages (SMS)
With the short message service (SMS) you can send and receive
multipart messages made of several ordinary text messages (network
service) that can contain pictures.
Before you can send any text, picture, or e-mail message, you must save
your message center number. See Message settings on page 48.
To check SMS e-mail service availability and to subscribe to the service,
contact your service provider. To save an e-mail address in
Contacts
, see
Save multiple numbers, text items, or an image on page 52.
Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for
a single message. Longer messages will be sent as a series of two or more
messages. Your service provider may charge accordingly. Characters that use
accents or other marks, and characters from some language options like Chinese,
take up more space limiting the number of characters that can be sent in a single
message.

On the top of the display you can see the message length indicator counting
backwards from 160. For example, 10/2 means that you can still add 10
characters for the text to be sent as two messages.
