Answering machine
The telephone answering machine is a device designed to record audio messages directly on its local memory
without connecting to a server to listen the recordings, thus avoiding the relative charges. Moreover, you can
customize your answering machine message, using the phone’s microphone. The answering machine will turn on
after a preset number of rings, or can be operated manually as answer option. You will be notified with an icon
(separately for SIM1 and SIM2) when you got messages left on your answering machine.
Messages
Here you can listen to answering machine messages stored in your phone's own internal memory. This feature
allows to save money avoiding connection to mobile network operator's voicemail system.
Settings
Here you can enable/disable the auto-answer, select the storage path for the messages (phone or memory card),
set the pickup time (3, 5, 10 or 30 seconds), set the max. record duration (30 seconds, 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5
minutes, or unlimited), select the greeting message (predefined file or user-defined audio), and finally enable
remote access to the answering machine through a DTMF compatible phone.
To listen for messages from remote, enable the answering machine as well as Remote access in Settings menu;
you need then a touch-tone telephone to send DTMF. When the voice mail system answers and prompts you to
leave a message, then digit “#” and wait until the system prompts you to enter your password (1234 by default).
Note: remote access supports only the listening function.
Thread SMS
This section shows all the messages sent to/received from a particular contact in a chat-style (threaded) interface.
SMS delayed sending
You can postpone sending the message, scheduling the sending at a particular date and time. You can also specify
multiple recipients, set the repetition of sending, and choose which SIM to use.
Background sounds
Background sounds help to recreate the realistic ambient sounds during a particular call (i.e. “platform” “airport”,
“station”, “restaurant” and other user-recordable sounds). This option can be selected by default or can be set
just in time when there is an incoming call.
