Receiving Messages
When you receive a voice mail message, Short
Message Service (SMS) message, or Net alert,
you have 2 ways to access the message:
• Respond to the message notification that
appears when the message is received.
• Dismiss the message notification and access
the message later through the message center.
Message Notifications
When you receive a message, your phone notifies
you with text on the display and a notification tone
or vibration. You can access the message or
dismiss the notification.
If you dismiss the notification, the message is not
deleted. It can be accessed through the message
center.
If you are not on a phone call when you receive a
message, your phone sounds a notification tone
every 30 seconds until you access the message,
you dismiss the notification, or the alert time-out
expires.

notification tones while you are on phone calls:
1 From the main menu, select Settings > Phone
Calls > Notifications.

• Msg Mail Only — Tones sound during calls
for SMS messages; tones for all other types
of messages are held until you end calls.

are held until you end calls.
Note: Delay All is the default setting.
