Network Access: Some types of Java games are only playable online (for example, mahjong), and using the phone to go online entails an extra cost. However, it may not be possible to determine from a game's name alone whether or not it is an online game. Therefore, this setting allows you to be presented a prompt asking if you wish to go online to play a game before actually running the program.
Always Ask: Each time you attempt to launch an online
game, you will be asked if you want to connect to the Internet.
Ask Once per AP: You will only be asked if you want to go
online the first time you attempt to launch an online game. The next time you attempt to launch the game, the same choice that you made the first time will be applied.
Never Ask: Each time you launch an online game, the phone
will automatically connect to the Internet, and you will not be asked to confirm.
DNS: Here you can enter the IP address of the Domain Name
Server that you wish to use.
Bearer Mode: Before you download a Java application from the
Internet, you must set the network system that you are using to either GPRS or CSD (dialup).
Based on the bearer mode that you have set, you will need to
make further settings for either the GPRS or dialup network. For details on configuring GPRS and dialup network access, see page 129.

Security
You can use a PIN code, phone password, and SIM card lock authentication to prevent unauthorized use of the phone.
PIN Code
A PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a password provided by a network operator. When PIN code authentication is activated, it will prevent unauthorized use of the SIM card. Unless the correct PIN code is entered when the phone is turned on, the SIM card cannot be used, even if it is inserted in another phone.
If the PIN code is entered incorrectly three consecutive times, this will cause the SIM card to lock down, and a PUK1 code provided by the network operator will be required to unlock it.
,
After unlocking, the PIN code will be automatically set to activate once the phone is turned on.
PIN1 Code
Used to activate/deactivate or change the PIN1 code. Before changing settings for the PIN1 code feature, the previously set PIN1 code must be entered.
If you wish to change the PIN1 code, you must press in the Enable item to select On, so that you will be able to enter and confirm the new password.
PIN2 Code
Used to change the PIN2 code. The procedure is the same as for the PIN1 code.

Phone Lock
Activates/deactivates or changes the phone's startup password. The startup password prevents unauthorized persons from using your phone. Once the phone's password is activated, the phone will be locked down when it is turned on unless this password is correctly entered. If an incorrect password is entered, your phone will remain locked down, and cannot be unlocked even if the SIM card is replaced by another one. When the phone is locked, you will only be able to make emergency calls. Once the phone password is activated, you must enter the password each time the phone is turned on in order to unlock the phone (there is no limit on the number of attempts to enter the phone password). The procedure for setting the phone password is the same as for the PIN1 code (the default phone password is 1234).
SIM Lock
Using this feature, you can prevent unauthorized persons from using your phone with other SIM cards. After you activate the SIM Lock feature, only the SIM card present when the feature was activated will be accepted by the phone. If a new SIM card is inserted in the phone, when the phone is turned on and a PIN code is entered, the phone will request entry of a SIM Lock password (there is no limit on the number of attempts to enter the SIM Lock password. If the password is entered correctly, the phone will be able to recognize the new SIM card and use it normally. The next time the phone is turned on with this SIM card inserted, the phone will not ask again for you to enter the SIM Lock

Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems while using the phone, or if it performs erratically, you can consult the information in the chart below. If your particular problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart, contact the dealer where you purchased the phone.
Problem Possible cause Solution
Move to a location where the network signal can be properly received.
Avoid using the phone at such times, or try again after waiting a short time.
You can request a service area map from your network operator.
Hang up the phone and dial again. You may be switched to a better-quality network trunk or phone line.
Poor reception
Echo or noise
The network signal is too
weak at your current location for example, in a basement or near a tall building-because wireless transmissions can not effectively reach it.
The network is busy at
the current time (for example, during peak times, there may be too much network traffic to handle additional calls).
You are too far away from
a base station for your network operator.
Poor network trunk quality
on the part of your network operator.
Poor local telephone line
quality.
166 Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Solution
If you are located in an area where signaling is weak, temporarily shut off the phone.
Use a new battery.
Change your location to one where the network is accessible, or temporarily turn off your phone.
Recharge the phone's battery.
Take the SIM card to your network operator for testing.
Insert the SIM card properly.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the SIM card contacts.
Shortened standby time
You cannot switch your phone on.
SIM card error
The standby time is
related to your network operator's system configuration. The same phone used with different network operators' systems will not provide exactly the same length of standby time.
The battery is depleted. In
high-temperature environments, battery life will be shortened.
If you are not able to
connect to the network, the phone will continue to send out signals as it attempts to locate a base station. Doing so consumes battery power and will consequently shorten standby time.
Battery power has been
depleted.
SIM card malfunction or
damage.
SIM card inserted
improperly.
Debris on the SIM card
contacts.
