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
network 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.

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.
