Receiving and Reading a Message
The following describes basic operations and useful tips when receiving and reading a message.
Operation of Other Applications
If applications other than the messaging application are running when a message is received, e616 will
receive the message as a background operation, in which case the message ringtune will not sound but
an icon is displayed on the upper area of the screen, indicating that you have an unread message. Also,
while another application is running, the contents of the Video message/Multimedia message will not be
downloaded automatically, even if the Download timing is set as Automatic.
