Notes for sending a multimedia message
• Copyright protections may prevent some images, ringing tones, and other

content from being copied, modified, transferred or forwarded.

• It may take more time to send a multimedia message than a text message.

During sending, the animated

indicator is displayed and you can use other

functions of the phone.

If the sending is interrupted, the phone tries to resend the message a few
times. If the sending fails, the message remains in the

Outbox

folder where you

can try to resend it later.

• If you send a multimedia message to a phone that does not support

multimedia messaging, the network may send a text message to the recipient
that includes an Internet address where the multimedia message can be
viewed (network service).
