Motorola L6 text messaging query

[Dr Wu]

Hi there

I realise that the answer to this will be blindingly obvious to 99% of people out there but humour me please!

My daughter has just got a motorola L6 mobile phone for her birthday but none of us can figure out how to send text (sms) messages on it!

We press the - symbol and 'message' comes up at the top of the screen with 9 icons, the top right being 'message'.
we select that and 3 options come up: message inbox. MMS templates and finally Browser msgs.

None of these seems to allow us to compose and send a text message....help!....please!!

thanks a lot

Steve

You select the 'message inbox' option and then press the menu key (- key again) one of the options in there is 'new message', press that and away you go.

thanks for that!

Actually that doesn't work there's no new message option.

Seems like I need a message from Orange to activate text messaging on the sim card and they're keeping the wife on hold for an eternity!
