Video calls

When you make a video call (network service), you can see
a real-time, two-way video between you and the recipient
of the call. The live video image, or video image captured
by the camera in your device is shown to the video call
recipient.

To be able to make a video call, you must have a USIM card
and be in the coverage of a UMTS network. For availability
of and subscription to video call services, contact your
service provider.

A video call can only be made between two parties. The
video call can be made to a compatible mobile device or an
ISDN client. Video calls cannot be made while another
voice, video, or data call is active.

Icons:

You are not receiving video (the recipient is not

sending video or the network is not transmitting it).

You have denied video sending from your device. To

send a still image instead, see ‘Call’, p. 116.

Even if you denied video sending during a video call, the
call is still charged as a video call. Check the pricing with
your service provider.

The secondary camera on the
front is used by default in
video calls. Starting a video
call may take a while.

Waiting for video image

is

shown. If the call is not
successful (for example, video calls are not supported by
the network, or the receiving device is not compatible) you
are asked if you want to try a normal call or send a text or
multimedia message instead.

The video call is active when you see two video images,
and hear the sound through the loudspeaker. The call
recipient may deny video sending (

), in which case you

only hear the sound and may see a still image or a grey
background graphic.
