Charging the battery

Your phone's built-in battery is not user-removable. To replace the battery,
contact an authorized service center. Do not attempt to remove it yourself.

Sharing your phone's mobile data connection

Want to access the Internet from multiple devices when you are on the go? Use USB
tethering or set your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot to share its data connection with other
devices.

USB tethering

You can share your phone's data connection with a computer using a USB cable.
To use USB tethering, you may need to install your phone's driver on the computer or
establish a network connection, depending on your computer's operating system. If your
computer runs Windows 7, Windows Vista, or a latest Linux operating system (such as
Ubuntu 10.4), you can use your phone's USB tethering function without configuring any
settings on the computer. If your computer runs an earlier version of Windows or another
operating system, it will identify your phone and install its driver automatically.
