Messages Menu
Your phone supports the two optional PCS network message
features: Short Message Services (SMS) and Cell Broadcast.
SMS Messages
These are text messages that are sent specifically to and from
your phone number. All SMS messages are stored on your SIM
Card. The amount of storage space is determined by your Service
Provider and is shared between outgoing and incoming
messages.
When an SMS message is received, your phone:
1
Makes three short alert tones (depending on the 'Ring or
Vibrate' Setting).
Displays the o (messages) icon.
2
3
Stores the message for later viewing, if there is space. If there
is not enough space, the o icon will flash. One or more
messages must be removed before the message can be stored.
Your Service Provider may transmit a message for a limited
amount of time. If a memory location is not made available
before the message is removed from the network, then you will
not be able to receive or read it.
Cell Broadcast Messages
These are general messages broadcast to a group of phones and
can only be received when your phone is in standby mode.
These messages are broadcast in numbered 'channels' and, in
general, each channel will tend to carry one particular type of
information.
