Charging the Battery

Your Dopod585 is powered by a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. The battery will eventually wear out after a few hundred charges or discharges. Replace the battery through an authorized vendor when the operating time is noticeably shorter than usual.

The time it takes for a battery to fully charge depends on the environment temperature at the time of charge. A completed charge normally takes about 3.5 to 4 hours in 0-10 degree temperatures, and less than 3 hours in temperatures ranging from 20 to 45 degrees.

Fully charge the new battery before using your Dopod585 for the ﬁ rst time. When the low-battery indicator appears, save any unsaved data you are working on by synchronizing your Dopod585 with your PC or an Exchange Server. Do not restart your Dopod585 until you have connected it to an external pow er source.

NOTE: Do not leave your Dopod585 connected to a charger for longer than a week because overcharging can shorten a battery’s lifespan. Your battery will automatically discharge when the phone is not in use. Leaving the battery in extremely hot or cold places may also reduce its capacity or shorten its lifespan.

1.6 Entering text and numbers

Your Dopod585 supports three input modes for entering text and numbers: Multipress, T9, and Numeric. The Multipress and T9 modes are used for entering text, and the Numeric mode is for entering numbers. When you se lect a ﬁ eld that requires text or numeric entry, your Dopod585 will auto matically select the ap pro pri ate input mode.

When the cursor is in a ﬁ eld which requires text or number input, you can switch input modes yourself by holding down the asterisk (*) key to pop up the menu. Commands on the menu are Symbols, 123, Abc, and T9 Languages. Selecting T9 Languages will open a submenu of all the languages available on your Dopod585 with T9 capability.

Multipress mode

When you are in Multipress mode, you can enter a letter by pressing the number key on which the letter appears. To enter the ﬁ rst letter on the number key, press the key once, to enter the second letter, press the key twice quickly, and so on. The letter entered most recently is underlined until you have completed the keypresses for the letter and moved on to the next letter.

For example: To enter the word "hat," press 44, 2, 8.

When you enter letters that are on the same number key, you must pause after entering the ﬁ rst letter and wait until the underline disappears before entering the next letter, so your Dopod585 can process the ﬁ rst letter. This pause is called the “Multipress time-out,” and you can adjust the length of the pause between keypresses.

For example: To enter the word "cat," press 222, pause, press 2, and then press 8. Press the # key to move a space.

To enter punctuation in Multipress mode, press 1 re peat ed ly until you see the punctuation mark that you want.

To change the Multipress Time-Out setting:

1. Select Settings from the Start menu.

2. Select Accessibility.

3. In the Multipress time-out ﬁ eld, select the length of the pause between keypresses that you prefer.

(See illustrations on the next page.)

T9 mode

When you are in the T9 mode, just press the number keys that contain the letters that you want to form a word. T9 will then analyze your keypresses and attempt to complete the word. For example: To enter the word "shoe," press 7, 4, 6, 3.

To enter text in T9 mode:

1. When in an editable ﬁ eld, press and hold the asterisk (*)

key until the input menu appears. Select the desired T9 language from the menu. The t9 indicator should display in the Title Bar.

2. Enter letters by pressing the keys on which the letters appear. Press a key only once for each letter.

3. Press the # key to accept the word and enter a space after it, or press the Down button on the Navigation Pad to scroll through the available words; press the Action button to accept the word choice.

4. Press 1 and then press the Up or Down button on the Navigation Pad to cycle through common punctuation

symbols.

NOTE: T9 cannot always ﬁ nd the word you want in the T9 dictionary. In these cases, switch to Multipress mode. After you have entered the word in Multipress mode, the word will be added to the T9 dictionary.

4. In the Conﬁ rm password ﬁ eld, enter the password again, then press the Done softkey.

• To unlock your Dopod585: Press the Unlock softkey, enter your password, then press the Unlock softkey again.

• To turn off phone lock: Select Settings > Security > Disable Phone Lock, enter your password, and then press the Done softkey.

NOTE: If you forget your password, please call your Customer Care Service Center for information about how to reset your device and thereby regain access to it. The procedure will cause your Dopod585 to lose all programs you had installed, and personal data. However, note that if you had previously synchronized with a PC, you will be able to recover the lost programs easily by synchronizing with it again, after the reset. Therefore it is recommended that you synchronize periodically, in the event that you ever need to easily recover your data.

2.3 Using Contacts and Beaming

You can think of Contacts as an online address book, where you can store information about people and businesses you communicate with in contact cards. For example, you can store multiple phone numbers, E-mail and street ad dress es, Web pages, birthdays, anniversary dates, etc. You can use Contacts to dial phone numbers and compose E-mail and SMS messages directly from a contact card.

The Contact list

The Contacts list displays the names of your contacts alphabetically, along with an abbreviation for the default communication method, such as the person's work phone number (w) or home phone number (h). This makes it easy to reach the contact using the method you prefer. Note that if the contact entry includes a work phone number, your phone will automatically set it as the default number.

2.4 Photo Caller ID

Photo Caller ID is an application that adds more fun to using your Dopod585. It allows you to assign photos or animated GIF ﬁ les to the entries in your Contacts. Then when a person calls you (for whom you have previously assigned a photo ID), that photo ID will appear on your Dopod585’s incoming call screen.

You can also perform maintenance on the Contacts, even create new Contacts and Groups and assign members to the Groups, right from within Photo Caller ID.

Photo Caller ID does not run automatically when you turn on your Dopod585. You must invoke it after your Dopod585 is turned on.

Starting the Photo Caller ID program

To invoke Photo Caller ID, select Contacts from the Start menu to open the Contacts screen, then select Photo Caller ID from the choices in that screen.

Dopod585 User Manual

2. Using your phone

The Caller ID screen will then open, and all of your Contacts will be listed. An icon should display in the Title Bar to indicate that the “Caller ID monitor” is running, meaning that Photo IDs (if assigned) will display when incoming calls are received. (Section 1.2 of Chapter 1 illustrates the Photo Caller ID monitor “On” and “Off” icons.)

NOTE: Even if Photo Caller ID is not running, you can still use Caller ID to assign photos and manage contacts and groups. The photos will display within your Contacts application, but incoming calls will not be able to display the Photo IDs you assigned. (To disable Photo Caller ID manually, use Options > General as mentioned later in this section.)

Main List View and Detailed View

When you start the Photo Caller ID application, the main List View will display as shown in the example on the next page. The Contacts entries fully mirror those in your Pocket Contacts. Any changes you make to your Contacts data using Photo Caller ID will simultaneously be made in your Pocket Contacts.

In the example on the next page, a Photo ID has already been assigned to the selected Contact entry. The icon at the rightmost side of each Contact indicates whether the Contact resides in your phone’s local memory or on the SIM card. If a Photo ID has been assigned, an additional icon will indicate such.

Reset Filter

This command is enabled after you have performed any manual ﬁ ltering of entries using your Dopod585’s keypad. For example, if you have pressed the keys for “j,” “a,” “c,” and “k” to list only the entries containing the string “jack,” you can select Reset Filter, or press the * shortcut key, to reset the main view so that all entries are once again listed. (NOTE: This command does not affect any ﬁ ltering you may have done using the Filter command explained below.)

Manage Group

This command provides a convenient interface that lets you perform complete management of your contacts groups. Initially, it opens the Manage Group screen, which lists all currently existing groups and the number of members assigned to each group, as well as the Photo ID assigned to the selected group (if any).

Press the Right Softkey in the Manage Group screen to open the menu, which lets you create New groups, Rename or Delete groups, Assign Members to groups, Assign Photo or Unassign Photo, and Preview the behavior of an already- assigned photo and/or template.

The Assign Photo, Unassign Photo, and Preview commands in the Manage Group screen operate the same as those for assigning individual Photo IDs, as explained later in “Assigning a Photo ID to a Contact.” Note that a Photo ID assigned to a group will display during an incoming call only if no individual Photo ID has been assigned to the caller. The individually-assigned Photo ID has precedence over the group-assigned Photo ID.

Filter

This command opens a submenu that lets you control which category of items are listed on the screen: SIM Only, Contacts Only, and Group. By default, No Filter is active.

Assign Photo

Explained later in “Assigning a Photo ID to a Contact.”

Preview

This command is available if a Photo ID is currently assigned to the selected Contact entry. First, select a Contact entry in the list that already has a photo assigned to it. Then select

Preview, or press the # button on your phone keypad.

Options

Selecting Options opens a submenu that contains three commands: Set Default Photos, Display Settings, and

General.

Set Default Photos — Opens a screen that lets you assign,

change, or unassign default Photo IDs for Unknown Photo, Not-found Photo, and general Default Photo, as follows:

Unknown Photo: This photo will display whenever the

phone number of the incoming call is not known to Photo Caller ID because no phone number was “passed in” to your Dopod585. This would occur if the person calling you has blocked their phone number from being displayed to the receiver, or has not enabled the broadcast of their Caller ID.

Not-found Photo: This option in the Set Default Photos screen lets you assign a generic Photo ID to any incoming call from a person whose number is not found in your Contacts. That is, the phone number of the incoming call is known, but has no matching entry in your Contacts.

Default Photo: This photo will display when the incoming call is found to be from a matching entry in your Contacts database, but so far there is no user-assigned Photo ID for either that individual Contact entry, or for the Group it belongs to.

Dopod585 User Manual

2. Using your phone

Display Settings — Selecting this from the Options submenu opens the Display Settings screen, which allows you to specify whether the Photo ID should consist of only a photo (Use Photo Only), or a photo merged with a template (Use Template). Options available in this screen will depend on which of these is active in the Display Style ﬁ eld. This screen is illustrated in the next subsection (“Assigning a Photo ID to a Contact”).

General — Opens a screen that contains two options:

Storage Path for Re-sized Photos: Every time you

use Assign Photo to assign a photo, Photo Caller ID will automatically copy and re-size the original photo ﬁ le. You can then delete the original ﬁ le, if you wish to save valuable storage space in the phone. The Storage Path for Resized Photos ﬁ eld allows you to specify whether you want these re-sized photos to be saved to your phone or to your Storage Card.

Display Photo During Incoming or Waiting Call: Active

by default. If you uncheck this checkbox and then select “Done,” Photo Caller ID will be disabled. The phone will recover its original background image for incoming calls, and the Incoming Call monitor will be unloaded from memory. No photos will display when the checkbox is not checked.

Assigning a Photo ID to a Contact

The Assign Photo command lets you assign an image ﬁ le or animated GIF ﬁ le (“Photo ID”) to an individual Contact entry stored in your Pocket Contacts, or Phonebook entry on the SIM card. You can also specify a size, and a position for the Photo ID.

And, to add more fun and a stronger visual impact to your incoming calls, you can assign an animated “template ID,” which will serve as a frame around the image, if desired. Templates are animated GIF ﬁ les, and are available in both

Dopod585 User Manual

2. Using

Portrait and Landscape orientation. You can choose to display the Photo ID only, or the Photo ID together with a template ID, and easily change Photo IDs and/or Template IDs at any time.

NOTE: The steps in this subsection are for the Assign Photo command on the main menu (individual Contact

assignment), but this same basic procedure can also be followed when:

• Assigning a Photo ID to a Group (using the Assign Photo

command on the menu in the Manage Group screen).

• Assigning “Unknown Photo,” “Not-found Photo,” and

“Default Photo” (using the Assign Photo command on the menu in the Set Default Photos screen).

• Assigning an individual Photo ID using the Assign Photo

command on the menu accessed when in Detailed

View.

First, make sure the photo you want to use is either a JPEG, BMP, or GIF ﬁ le (either still or animated GIF). By default, the \\Storage\My Documents folder is searched for these ﬁ le types. If the ﬁ le you want to use is located somewhere else, you can optionally search other folders in Step 2 below.

1. In the main Caller ID screen, select the desired Contact in the list.

2. Select Assign Photo from the menu, or simply press the Left Softkey. The ﬁ rst Assign Photo screen will appear. In it, your JPEG, BMP, and GIF ﬁ les will be displayed as thumbnails. (If you want to search other folders, open the menu and use the Change Folder command.)

2. Using your phone

Optional: If desired, you can use Photo Caller ID’s New from Camera command to take a new picture and then

assign it as a Photo ID right away. Open the menu in this Assign Photo screen and select New from Camera. This switches to the Camera mode. After taking a new photo, you will be returned to Photo Caller ID so you can assign the new photo as a Photo ID.

3. Select the ﬁ le you want to use as the Photo ID.

4. Press the Left Softkey (“Next”). A Preview screen opens.

If Use Template is active in the Display Settings screen, the photo is previewed in a template when you press “Next.” You can use the menu in this Preview screen to preview the Next Template or Previous Template, or press the Right or Left navigational buttons to do so.

If Use Photo Only happens to be active in the Display Settings screen as shown below, the photo alone is previewed according to the current Position setting in Display Settings.

3.1 Camera Mode

When in Photo capture mode, you can capture standard still images. In Picture Theme capture mode, you can place your captured images into attractive frames (templates). Use Photo ID capture mode to capture an image that you want to assign to one of your Contacts as a Photo ID. Or, switch to Video or MMS Video capture mode and capture “live” video streams (with audio if desired), then share them with others. You can even send the captured ﬁ les via E-mail, MMS, Bluetooth, or infrared beaming.

Invoking Camera mode

Use any of these methods to switch to Camera mode on your Dopod585:

• Press the Camera button on the right side of your Dopod585. The live incoming video stream will be shown on your screen. If you have not yet started the Camera application, the Photo capture mode will be active by default. If you previously started the Camera in the current session, the most recently used capture mode will be active.

•

Select Camera from the Start Menu, or select Album and

then press the Left Softkey (“Camera”).

• By default, the Camera icon is one of the ﬁ ve icons in the “recently used programs” bar at the top of the Home screen. Select the icon and press the Action button.

Choosing a Capture submode

When in Camera mode, select Capture Mode from the main menu, and then select either Photo, Video, MMS Video, Photo ID, or Picture Theme from the submenu.

NOTE: Newly-captured video ﬁ les are placed in your \My Documents folder by default. However, the ﬁ rst time you

capture a new still image, a new My Photos folder will be created under \My Documents, and the new image ﬁ le will be placed there.

Capturing a video using MMS Video mode

Switch to MMS Video capture mode. The usage, method of capturing, and options for MMS Video capture mode are the same as for Video capture mode, except for the following:

Whereas the Video capture mode allows you to set any ﬁ le size limitation, MMS Video mode is permanently set to a ﬁ le size limitation of 95 KB. When the video currently being recorded reaches a ﬁ le size of 95 KB, the recording process will automatically stop.

In addition, when in MMS Video mode, there are only two choices for Encoder type: MPEG-4, and H.263. Typically, it is recommended that you use H.263 for video ﬁ les to be sent as MMS attachments.

Using Photo ID mode

The Photo ID capture mode captures a still image in the same way as Photo capture mode, but captures at a size (176 x 180) which is convenient to use directly as a Photo ID for one of your contacts.

Immediately after capturing an image using Photo ID capture mode, you can select Save As > Caller ID Photo from the menu in the Review screen (shown later in the section entitled The Review screen) to invoke the Photo Caller ID application.

In Photo Caller ID, all entries in your Pocket Contacts will be listed. Select the Contact to which you want to assign the image you just captured. Then press the Left Softkey (“Next”) and then again (“Done”) to assign the photo. After that, you will be returned to the Capture screen of Camera mode automatically.

In templates that require two or more images, the focus switches to another “place holder” after the ﬁ rst one is ﬁ lled.

To capture an image, press the Camera button on the right side of your Dopod585, the Left Softkey (“Capture”), or the Action button. The image will be saved with the frame.

Zoom capability is determined by the currently loaded template, as shown later in the table in the “Zooming in and out” section.

The Review screen

If the Review after capture checkbox is checked in the Options > General screen (it is checked by default), a “Review”

screen will appear immediately after you have captured a ﬁ le using any of the ﬁ ve capture submodes.

In the example below, a video ﬁ le has just been captured, so the ﬁ rst frame of the video ﬁ le is shown in the Review screen. Pressing the Right Softkey will open the menu illustrated.

Dopod585 User Manual

Using your

In the previous ﬁ gure, the Title Bar indicates Zoom mode. This means you can press the Up and Down buttons to Zoom In and Out.

Or, when in Zoom mode, you can press the Action button to switch to Pan mode. If the image is too large to ﬁ t in the display area, you can press the Up, Down, Left, or Right buttons to pan the image to the desired position.

Commands on the menu in the Review screen vary according to the type of captured ﬁ le, as follows:

Play — This command is available on the menu only if the newly-captured ﬁ le is a video ﬁ le. A Progress Bar at the bottom of the screen will indicate progress of the playback.

Send — via E-mail, via MMS, or via Bluetooth/Infrared beaming:

If the newly-captured ﬁ le is a video ﬁ le in Motion-JPEG AVI or MPEG-4 format, the Send submenu contains the via E-mail command, which invokes a new Compose E-mail screen with the ﬁ le already attached. If the new ﬁ le is a video in H.263 format, or if it is a still image (Photo, Photo ID, Picture Theme), both via E-mail and via MMS are available on this submenu. (The MMS Composer application is explained in Chapter 6.)

Finally, the Beam File command on the Send submenu lets you beam the ﬁ le using either Infrared or Bluetooth. After you select Beam File, align your Dopod585 phone’s port with the port of the other device. When a device is detected, the device name will be displayed on the screen. If an Infrared device is detected, the ﬁ le will be beamed directly. If a Bluetooth device is detected, press the Left Softkey (“Beam”) to start beaming.

• Move to (select the folder where you want to move it to)

• Copy to (select the folder where you want to copy it to)

• Rename (keep the ﬁ le and change its name)

Save As — If the newly-captured ﬁ le is a video, this submenu lets you save the ﬁ rst frame of the video as your Home Screen image, and also contains a command to Restore Home Screen if you want to re-set to the original Home

screen. In addition to the above two commands, if the ﬁ le is a still image, the Caller ID Photo command will be available. This invokes the Photo Caller ID application (as explained in the previous chapter) and lets you assign the image as a Photo ID to an entry in your Pocket Contacts.

Back — Keeps the ﬁ le with its default ﬁ lename, and returns to the Capture screen, ready to do more captures.

Album — Switches to the Thumbnail View of Album mode, where you can view, organize, and manipulate the ﬁ les.

Zooming in and out

When in one of the ﬁ ve capture modes, you can press the Up/Down button to Zoom In/Out. However, Zoom capability depends on the current Capture Mode, Encoder type, and Resolution (Capture Size), all of which can be speciﬁ ed in the Options > Mode screen.

Dopod585 User Manual

Using your

camera

• Set the Flicker Adjustment according to the electrical voltage used in your country.

• Enable Review mode, so that every time you capture any new image or video ﬁ le, you will enter the Review screen (shown and explained earlier). It is enabled by default.

• Disable the audible “shutter” sound so that images will be captured silently.

• Apply “Date and time stamp” while capturing images. Select this check box to automatically compose the current date and time in the captured images.

Counter

By default, sequential numbers are incorporated into the ﬁ lename of each new image or video you capture. This screen lets you reset the counters individually to 001.

Photo

All still images you capture are saved in the JPEG format. In the Photo screen of Options, you can specify a JPEG quality (Basic, Normal, Fine, Superﬁ ne), and you can change the default ﬁ le name preﬁ x (IMAGE) if desired. And the ﬁ le sequential name can go up to 5 digits.

The location you specify in the Template Folder ﬁ eld is where Camera will look for templates when you enter Picture Theme mode. You can choose Storage Card or Internal Memory. If Internal Memory is chosen, Camera will look in the \Storage\My Documents\Frames folder of your Dopod585 phone, where a collection of template ﬁ les is located. Likewise, if Storage Card is chosen, it will look in \My Documents\Frames of the Storage Card.

Video

By default, all video clips you capture will have accompanying audio recorded along with the video. In this screen, you can disable or re-enable the recording of audio along with your video ﬁ les. (Or, when in a Capture screen, you can simply press 6 on your Dopod585’s keypad to toggle audio capture On and Off.) You can also change the default ﬁ lename preﬁ x (VIDEO) which is used for each new video capture. For example, if your ﬁ rst video capture is in the MPEG-4 format, the ﬁ le name would be VIDEO_001.mp4

Modes

The ﬁ elds available in the Modes screen will vary depending on the Capture Mode and Encoder type selected. (The “Encoder” is the output format of newly-captured ﬁ les.)

If Photo is the selected Capture Mode, you can choose the desired Resolution (capture size). They are all listed in the table in the “Zooming In and Out” section.

If Video is the selected Capture Mode, you can use the Encoder ﬁ eld to specify what ﬁ le format to record in, and a desired Resolution. In addition, you can set a maximum limit to the ﬁ le size and duration. For example, if you enter 600 KB in the Limit Video File Size ﬁ eld, then recording will automatically stop when that ﬁ le size is reached. And if you set to 5 seconds, recording will be terminated when 5 seconds of video has been taken.

If MMS Video is the selected Capture Mode, the “Limit Video File Size” ﬁ eld is not available. This is because the maximum ﬁ le size is set to 95 KB for MMS Video captures. Encoder types available are MPEG-4 and H.263.

There are no changeable options available in the Modes screen when Picture Theme or Photo ID is the selected Capture Mode.

NOTE: Another way to enter the Modes screen is to select Menu > Capture Modes > Manage.

In the Regional Settings screen, (Settings > Regional Settings), you can change the language used by your

Dopod585. After changing the language and some of the other settings, you must power your Dopod585 off and back on, in order to make the changes take effect.

However, when changing languages, note that it is possible that not all applications will be displayed with the new language because of the default “language set” in your Dopod585.

The following items can be adjusted in the Regional Settings screen: Language, Locale, Short Date style, Long Date style; and the format of Time, Positive and Negative numbers, Positive and Negative currency amounts.

Accessibility

Select Settings > Accessibility to view or modify your settings for System Font Size, Multipress Time-out, Conﬁ rmation Time-out, and In-call Alert Volume. See section

1.6 for more details about this, and an illustration.

Power Management

Select Settings > Power Management from the Start menu if you want to check the current battery level. Also in the Power Management screen, you can adjust various powersaving settings. Backlight time-out, Display time-out, and Light Sensor enabled or disabled.

The light sensor is located at the bottom of your Dopod585, under the 0 button on your keypad. Selecting On in the Light Sensor Enable ﬁ eld will cause a “backlight” behind your keypad to activate and stay on, when ambient luminance is lower than 20~28 lux, making it easier to see the buttons in dark conditions. Selecting Off in this ﬁ eld will conserve battery power. However, even if Off is selected, a backlight will turn on temporarily every time you press a button on your Dopod585, whether you are in a dark or light environment.

Certiﬁ cates

On your Dopod585, you can add and delete public key certiﬁ cates. These certiﬁ cates help establish your identity when you log on to a secure network, such as a corporate network. Certiﬁ cates also help establish the identity of oth er computers, such as servers, with which you connect. This helps prevent unauthorized users from accessing your device and its information.

You can store two types of certiﬁ cates on your Dopod585: Personal certiﬁ cates that establish your identity, and Root certiﬁ cates that establish the identity of servers with which you connect. Your Dopod585 may include a set of preinstalled certiﬁ cates.
