2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to your mobile phone. Then, to start

2.2.3 Important Information About the Battery

• If the battery has not been used for a long time, you may not be able to power on

your mobile phone immediately after you begin charging the battery. Allow the
battery to charge for a few minutes with the phone powered off before attempting
to power the phone on.

• As it ages, the battery’s performance will degrade, in particular it will not hold charge

as it did when it was new. When the battery life becomes noticeably shorter than
usual after being charged properly, replace the battery with a new one of the same
type.

• Using data services increases the power consumption of the phone and will

therefore reduce the length of time that the phone can be used between battery
charges.

• The time required to fully charge the battery depends on the ambient temperature

and the age of the battery.

• When the battery power is low, the phone will alert you and display a message.

When the battery power is almost exhausted, your phone will power off
automatically.

8

2.2.4 Power Saving Tips

The longevity of battery power depends on the network to which you connect, and
how you use your mobile phone.
Try the following to conserve battery power:

• When your mobile phone is not in use, turn off the screen backlight.

• Reduce the time it takes for your screen backlight to turn off when your phone is

idle.

• Lower the screen brightness.

• Turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it. Only make your phone visible to other

Bluetooth devices when you need to establish a Bluetooth connection.

• Turn off Wi-Fi when you are not using it.

• Turn off your phone’s GPS receiver when you are not using it.

• Lower the volume.

• Close power-draining programs, when you do not need them.

10 Synchronizing Information

Some applications on your mobile phone give you access to the same personal
information that you can add, view, and edit on your computer. If you add, change, or
delete your information in any of these applications on the web, the updated
information also appears on your mobile phone.
This is made possible through over-the-air data synchronization. The process occurs
in the background and does not interfere with use of your mobile phone. When your
phone is synchronizing, a data synchronization icon will be shown in the notification
bar.

10.1 Managing Your Accounts

You can synchronize contacts, email, and other information on your mobile phone
with multiple Google accounts or other kinds of accounts, depending on the
applications installed on your mobile phone.
For example, you can start by adding your personal Google account, so your
personal email, contacts, and calendar are always available. You could then add a
work account, so your work-related emails and work contacts are handy. If you like,
you may add multiple Google accounts or other accounts.

10.1.1 Adding an Account

connecting.

5. Configure the account. Depending on the kind of account, you may be asked to

configure what kind of data you want to synchronize to the mobile phone, to name
the account, and for other details. When you are finished, the account is added to

You can configure background data use and synchronization options for all the
applications on your phone. You can also configure what kind of data you synchronize
for each account.
For some accounts, synchronization is bi-directional; changes that you make to the
information on your mobile phone are made to the copy of that information on the
web. Some accounts support only one-way synchronization; the information on your
mobile phone is read-only.
