FOMA terminal

F-10C supports W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS.
Because your FOMA terminal uses wireless transmission, it may not function in locations where it is difficult for radio waves to penetrate, such as tunnels, underground passages and some buildings, in areas

Introduction

where radio waves are weak, or out of service area. Even when you are high up in a tall building or condominium and nothing blocks your view outside, your FOMA terminal may not be able to receive or transmit signals. Also, communication may be interrupted even when the signal meter on your FOMA terminal indicates there are strong radio waves and you are not moving (traveling).
Because your FOMA terminal uses radio waves to communicate, it is possible that a third party may attempt to tap your calls. However, the W-CDMA, GSM/GPRS automatically applies a confidential communication function to all calls, so even if a third party could somehow tap a call, they only hear noise.
Your FOMA terminal encodes voice communication as digital data. When you are operating your FOMA terminal while moving to a location subject to weaker radio wave conditions, the transmitted digital data may not be correctly decoded and as a result the decoded voice may differ somewhat from the actual voice.
Maintain a separate record of the data (Phonebook, Schedule, Memo, Recorded messages, Voice memos, Moving picture memos, etc.) you registered in your FOMA terminal. Note that DOCOMO assumes no responsibility for any loss of saved contents of data resulting from malfunction, repair, changing of the model or other handling of FOMA terminal.
You are recommended to save important data to microSD card. Using DOCOMO keitai datalink, you can transfer and save phonebook, mail, schedule and other data to a PC.
The user hereby agrees that the user shall be solely responsible for the result of the use of SSL/TLS. Neither DOCOMO nor the certifier as listed herein makes any representation and warranty as for the security in the use of SSL/TLS. If the data should be erased, DOCOMO assumes no responsibility for the loss of any data. Certifier : VeriSign Japan K.K., Cybertrust Japan Co., Ltd., GlobalSign K.K., RSA Security Japan Ltd., SECOM Trust Systems Co., Ltd., Comodo CA Ltd., Entrust, Inc., Go Daddy, Inc.
This FOMA terminal supports FOMA Plus-Area and FOMA HIGH-SPEED Area.
Descriptions in this manual are for the FOMA terminal with a DOCOMO's UIM inserted.
SIM unlock
This FOMA terminal supports SIM unlock. If you release SIM lock, you can use UIM by a carrier other than NTT DOCOMO.
The SIM unlock service is provided at a docomo Shop.
A SIM unlock charge is separately required.
If you use a UIM other than by DOCOMO, available services and functions will be limited. DOCOMO is not liable to any failures or malfunctions.
For details of SIM unlock, refer to NTT DOCOMO website.
