Nokia 6340i - . Picture messages

background image

The Nokia 6340i phone comes with 10 preloaded pictures and 5 empty
storage slots (15 total). You can, however, overwrite any of the 10 pictures
that come with your phone. Pictures can be attached to a message and
sent using SMS to compatible phones. You cannot send a picture message
using e-mail. Picture messages behave the same as text messages, but
pictures take up more space than text. Pictures are stored in the templates
folder under Messages > Templates.

Download pictures

The Nokia 6340i phone can download pictures, or receive them from
compatible phones using SMS to use in messages. You can also create
pictures and send them to your phone or other compatible phones using
Nokia PC Suite.

picture to a message which is almost full of text, a beep sounds and

you are prompted to delete some text before proceeding.
