Answers to some of your questions about text messaging on your HTC Ocean

• What's the difference between text messaging and multimedia messaging?

  A text message has a limit of 160 characters. For longer text messages, your HTC Ocean splits the message into multiple messages.

  With multimedia messaging you can combine images, video, and audio with text in a single message.

  Note: Other devices either split long texts into 160-character messages or convert them into a multimedia message. Multimedia messages require a data connection; text messages don't.

  Send or receive a text or multimedia message.

• Why does the message say Draft next to it?

  Your HTC Ocean saves a message that is composed but not sent as a draft. You can open and edit a draft or send it as is.

• How do I send a group message?

  While composing a message, enter the recipient names in the To field.

• Can I delete a text message?

  Delete a single text message.
