Notes for sending a multimedia message
• 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 re-send the message a few
times. If the sending fails, the message remains in the
Outbox
folder where you
can try to re-send it later.
