New message notifications
Depending on your notification settings, the phone will play a ring tone, vibrate, or display
the message briefly in the status bar when you receive a new text or multimedia message.
To change the notification for new text and multimedia messages, see “Setting text and
multimedia message options” later in this chapter.
A new message icon also appears in the notifications area of the status bar to notify you
of a new text or multimedia message. The Messages application icon (if shown on the Home
screen) also displays the number of new messages .
To open the message, press and hold the status bar, and then slide the status bar down to
open the Notifications panel. Tap the new message to open and read it. For information on
reading and replying to messages see “Managing message conversations” in this chapter.
