How can we save sms in sim card??I have the 3650 and i cant find this option..

You want to save your SMS into your SIM Card? 😞 I dont see an option in 3650 to do that. What we can do is view/copy/delete/mark/unmark the SMS from the SIM to the phone (3650).

Also other functions that we can use is save/move/copy the SMS or other files from the Messaging to the MMC or use MMC to store the messages.

i think he means store them on MMC.

first go into Messaging, then press OPTIONS, then scroll down to SETTINGS, then scroll down to OTHER and change the "Memory in Use" to MMC.

i think he means store them on MMC.

I hope he meant MMC that is why I also mentioned in my post-reply earlier "use MMC to store the messages" 😃
but he wrote SIM on which I dont see an option in 3650 to copy the SMS from phone to SIM.

:angel:

At the beginning i ment sim..but after u proposed MMC its far better!!And it is very easy and of course we can save now much more sms when compared with sim!!Great phone!!!thnaks again

I agree this is a great phone 😃 because of the MMC card :angel:
only thing I wish Nokia to include in the next version of firmware (7650 & 3650) is will enable users to choose on how the contacts will be displayed (First,Last or Last First names). At the moment NameSwap is helpful on this issue.

haha kewl~

also at the moment i don't mind. even though its unconventional, the fact you can type in stuff at the bottom and it searches BOTH first and last name, makes it pretty easy to use.

Really no way to save the sms onto the sim card?
cause i swop my card between two phones occasionally and if the smses are on the phone memory, then i cant access the sms from the other phone.
Stupid nokia...........

Not really when you have a generic inbox for SMS, MMS and bluetooth - no point splitting up whree you store it so phone makes most sense as a SIM isn't going to like a few hundred SMSs and several MMS but the phone will be fine w.it 😊

I don't see much point still... What do u mean u can't access other sim's sms? Oh I get u.. well there's not a lot of benefit because not all SIMS can store SMS's as much as others; and then these new phones have linked sms (which take up 3 spots) and then they have MMS and etc.. so its really difficult. Also SIM cards have loading times..
