2.	From the Settings menu, scroll to and select Photo Size.

3.	From Photo Size, scroll to the size desired, and use the Right Soft key to select SELECT.

Use the Low Light setting to allow more light in when taking pictures in dark settings.

1.	From the Settings menu, scroll to and select Low Light.

Light Frequency

The Light Frequency setting relates to the frequency of the power at the electrical outlet. This is a required setting based on location. If you travel internationally with your phone, and you take pictures using indoor lighting, you need to change the Light Frequency setting to compensate.

NOTE: The Light Frequency setting has NO effect on photographs taken with outdoor lighting.

1.	From the Settings menu, scroll to and select Light Frequency.

2.	Scroll to and select the correct setting for your location.

NOTE: The setting for the US is 60Hz. The setting for Europe is 50Hz.

Troubleshooting

• When sending to another MSISDN, the recipient MUST have an MMS/picture messages-capable phone to receive the message properly. If they do not have an MMS-capable phone, content will be stripped, and they will receive the message as text only.
  NOTE: The image will not come through at all. It is also possible that only a portion of the text will come through.
• When an MMS message is sent to a non-MMS phone, the sender will receive the following message on their phone:
  
  +14251112222
  can only receive text messages.
  Your picture message was delivered as text only.
  NOTE: This error message will only appear when sending phone-to-phone. E-mail-to-phone may not receive an error message.
• The Photo Msgs application is a Java application that is communicating between the camera and the phone. Users will notice a delay when saving, sending, and taking pictures.
• When sending a picture immediately after taking it, the message field is pre-filled with an envelope. This indicates that the picture has been inserted.
• To check the status of sent messages, from the Message menu, scroll to and select Outbox.
  • X - not sent
  • - sent
