Necessary
- - Mobile phone;
- - The phone number of the subscriber to whom you want to send a message;
- - The amount of money on the phone account.
Instructions
Step 1
Today, short message forwarding services are used by almost 80% of the world's cellular subscribers. With the help of SMS, people communicate, get acquainted, share information and even work. To set up your phone to send SMS, you need to perform a few simple operations.
Step 2
Switch on the phone and enter the phone menu using the key under the word "Menu" on the phone screen. The menu is usually located at the bottom center of the display. From the resulting list, select "Message", and in the next tab - "New message". A window for entering SMS text has opened in front of you on your phone, enter the text of your message there.
Step 3
SMS typing can be done in different ways. Some people find it more convenient to use the T9 function, which is a smart input system. The phone tries to guess the word you are dialing. T9 is configured in the "Function" section: there you select the "Advanced" tab, and then look for "T9 Settings" and save the changes.
Step 4
You can type the text of the message through the phone buttons, where letters are located next to the numbers. You need to quickly press the key until the desired letter or number is selected from the ones written on it. If you start pressing the next key or the previous one again, a new letter or symbol is printed.
Step 5
To make a correction in the text (delete an erroneous character), you need to place the cursor after the unnecessary letter and press the key, which is most often located on the right under the screen. The "0" key is used to set a space between words. If you need to put a period, comma or other symbol, look for the "1" key and press until you find the desired one.
Step 6
After typing SMS, you need to send it - select the "Send" or "Send" parameter. The phone will offer to write the desired subscriber number or select it from the phone book stored on the SIM card or in the phone. This completes the phone setup for sending SMS. You just have to press one button "Send", and your message will "fly" to the right person. Your SMS will be sent under one important condition - if you have a positive balance on your phone.
