Multimedia messages
A multimedia message (MMS) can contain text, sound, video and
pictures. Your Vertu phone supports multimedia messages that are
up to 296 KB. If the maximum size is exceeded, the phone may not
be able to receive the message. Depending upon your network, you
may receive a message that includes an Internet address where you
can go to view the multimedia message. Pictures are scaled to fit
the display area of the phone. Your Vertu phone has a multimedia
message viewer for playing messages and an Inbox for storing all
saved messages.
Copyright protections may prevent some images, ringing tones, and
other content from being copied, modified, transferred, or
forwarded.
Multimedia messaging supports a wide range of standards for each
of the following formats:
> Picture: JPEG, GIF, animated GIF, WBMP, BMP, and PNG
> Sound: SP-MIDI, AMR audio, MP3 and AAC
> Video: clips in H.263 format with SubQCIF image size and
AMR audio
If a received message contains unsupported attachments, these
may be replaced with an
Object format not supported
message.
You cannot receive multimedia messages if you have a call in
progress, a Java application running, or an active browsing session.
If you are sent a multimedia message while you are on a call of any
type, receipt will be delayed until your Vertu phone becomes free.
This operation can be repeated to add a number of recipients
for the text message.
Multimedia messaging functions can only be used if
supported by your service provider. For availability and a
subscription to the multimedia messaging service, contact
your service provider. Only compatible devices can receive
and display multimedia messages.
Because delivery of multimedia messages can fail easily,
you should not rely upon them for essential
communications.
