Lotus666 ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 05:10 AM A big thing on Radio 1...an even bigger thing with me right now. FINALLY got a mobile phone. My very first one EVER! (Well, I'm excited!) And who sends me a cheeky first text? laz! hahaha...she got me a good one! So, what I want to know is...can anyone give me some good text? Come on baby, and text me up!

Rockjock Monkey	posted 03-07-2001 11:52 AM I would, but that's quite a long distance charge.
Lotus666 ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 11:54 AM Doh...RJ...just put them in here, silly!
Roz_27 Monkey	posted 03-07-2001 02:28 PM If you e-mail me your number Lotus I've got some good ones. Some that I would put on here but they wouldn't make sense cuz the picture wouldn't change. What kind of phone you got? [This message has been edited by Roz_27 (edited 03-07-2001).]
Lotus666 ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 02:35 PM Hey there Roz...I got a Siemens C25e...I believe a lot of the Nokia ones only flash up nonsense and does not work on mine! Will do, thanks...
Roz_27 Monkey	posted 03-07-2001 02:54 PM Yeah I got a Nokia 3310. Mines ok, but my friends is so pissed with hers she threw it in a mud puddle.
Lotus666 ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 03:03 PM A mud puddle hey? Wasn't a Siemens was it? hehehe... Actually, mine seems fine for what I want it for.
Britt ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 05:51 PM Am I the only person who doesn't know what the heck this is all about? Can you receive text messages on your cell phone? I'm confused.
Lotus666 ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 06:40 PM Britt...yes, you can! And, you can receive funny test messages that flash and do all sorts of weird and wonderful things...specially programmed by the makers such as Nokia.
exile_11 ZooKeeper	posted 03-07-2001 08:23 PM You can also get dirty images, like someone doing it doggy style, or something like that, and as you press the up and down buttons it actually moves. Lotus, Nokia phones are actually the best for it because of their large text screens. The dirty images work more effectively on models 3210 or later. Oh, and Britt for a country that practically invented the tech economy, I can't believe how backwards your telecommunications are. Text on cell phones is like sooooo old in most parts of the world and the US is one of the few places I can't use my cell phone cos your system is incompatible with most of the rest of the world. What's going on there?
laz Monkey	posted 03-08-2001 01:19 PM I've got the Nokia 3210 which is super duper. I couldn't live without text now. I send at least one text message a day, usually to my boyfriend. I live to text. Talking to people sucks! <-(Joke for those who know no better)
Roz_27 Monkey	posted 03-08-2001 01:29 PM I only have a phone to txt people with. Oh and in case of emergencies. Has anyone seen the weakest link? I got a txt for that, it's real funny if you've seen the show.
Britt ZooKeeper	posted 03-08-2001 02:26 PM I only just got my Nokia (5100 series, I think) about a month ago, so I plead ignorance. Could someone tell me how this works? Oh, and exile, we do things differently just to fuck with your head. I see we've been successful.
exile_11 ZooKeeper	posted 03-08-2001 08:22 PM You better believe it.
PixieChic Monkey	posted 03-08-2001 10:58 PM Ahhh...cell phones..."it's my scientific specialtiy." ------------------ I get to pedal brain cancer to spoiled teenagers.
Britt ZooKeeper	posted 03-09-2001 12:01 PM So tell me how the "text messaging" thing works already!! Sheesh.
PixieChic Monkey	posted 03-09-2001 06:38 PM Ok, on a 5100 series phone, you'd go into your menu, press 2-1-3 to write a message. Then you'd hit your enter button, and send it to a number...if the service isn't available to the number you send it to, your phone will say "no support system for messages" or something similar. To check for messages on your phone, go to the menu, press 2-1-1, and check your inbox. As far as all the freaky stuff exile was talking about, beats the hell out of me.
Carwash Monkey	posted 03-11-2001 08:21 AM I got me a 5110. hmm where is it? /me runs of and searchs for it Oooo look at the pretty batman symbol instead of the text that said 'Orange' anywhoooo...PixieChics thing was helpful, but tis easier to use the menu names. Press ur menu button (the blue line) then go down and find Messages, then scroll down to where it says 'Write Messages'. Right ur msg by typin in the letters etc THEN to send press ur menu button again (blue thingy) either type in the number OR use the up / down buttons to scroll thru the numers...then press ur blue line again to send! To read 'em just press the blue line when u recieve a txt. or goto ur menu -> messages -> Inbox. The stuff exile is on about tis funny stuff..and works on any nokia phone (in my experience). quote: if the service isn't available to the number you send it to, your phone will say "no support system for messages" erm...dont all mobiles support txt? no one has one of those really really old ones that dont any more. U can also send txt msgs for free from icq, and it's free to reply to too! ------------------ This msg has been edited to protect the sanity of others (: io
PixieChic Monkey	posted 03-11-2001 07:35 PM Actually, there are a lot of places around the U.S. that don't support text messaging. Rural areas that still use analog towers other than digital or satellite systems don't support it.
exile_11 ZooKeeper	posted 03-11-2001 08:17 PM No, the moving erotic text messages certainly don't work on 3810's or earlier. I only know cos a guy at the footy club text'd me a bunch of them last year, when I had a 3810. You get them but they don't line up properly which sort of ruins the effect. He had a 5110. Anyway, Britt, you got this thing worked out yet, or what.
Carwash Monkey	posted 03-12-2001 10:38 PM FINALLY! something we're ahead of the US on technology wise. Cos over here (in the UK) im pretty sure everywhere supports txt (that is if u can get a signal) Altho im sure u get charged less. Over here it's bout 10p or 5p off peak. I put �50 on my phone in nov last yr (it's a pay as u go) and now have bout �19 left..most of it goin on txt. Since i bought my phone (xmas 99) i have: All Calls Duration:9hrs Recieved Calls Duration:6hrs 7mins Dialled Calls Duration:2hrs 53mins hardly ever use it cos im a tight arse and dont wanna spend meh money on it (it shows u on meh phone how all those btw, dont wantcha thinkin im sad and keep a record of it ) ------------------ This msg has been edited to protect the sanity of others (: io
Colonel Jupiter Monkey	posted 03-13-2001 12:53 AM Here we have what is called 'Free Time'. If you're with a certain company, calls to another mobile phone of that company are free for the first 20 minutes from 8pm to 12am EVERY NIGHT! So you just talk for 19 minutes and then call back!
Gypsy Monkey	posted 03-13-2001 07:54 AM So Lotus finally has a mobile , look out hell is about to freeze over can certainly agree with exile I have a Nokia 6150 I think , has infared port can send messages to my computer with it , have also been sent some very interesting text messages mostly of the pornographic type , but got a great 1 at xmas with a tree that had flashing lights and Merry Xmas message . ------------------ Gypsy...I'm now the Love e'm and Leave e'm kind, it's the only way to go !!!
