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.

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 you do not need 3G services, set your phone

to connect to a 2G network.

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.

Lower the volume.

Close power-draining programs, when you do not

need them.

Turn off the data service.

11 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.

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.

Adding an Account

When you add an account, the Contacts application compares contacts from the newly synchronized account with contacts from your existing mobile phone accounts and attempts to merge duplicates into a single entry in Contacts. While it is presented as a single contact entry, the contact data itself is not merged.

On the home screen, touch > Settings >

Accounts & sync. The screen displays your

current synchronization settings and a list of your current accounts.

In some cases, you may need to obtain account details from IT support. For example, you may need to know the account’s domain or server address.

Touch Add account.

Touch the kind of account to add.

Follow the onscreen steps to enter the required and

optional information about the account. Most accounts require a username and password, but the details depend on the kind of account and the configuration of the service to which you are connecting.

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 the list on the screen.

Adding an Exchange Account

On the home screen, touch > Settings >

Accounts & sync.

Touch Corporate.

Follow the instructions and enter the required

information about the exchange account you want to add. For details, contact the server administrator.

Touch Next to display the Account options screen.

Configure the synchronization settings for this account.

Touch Next to finish configuring the account

settings. If emails are not synchronized properly, contact the server administrator.

Removing an Account

Prerequisite

You can remove an account, deleting it and all information associated with it from your mobile phone, including email, contacts, settings, and so on. You cannot, however, remove some accounts, such as the first account you signed into on the mobile phone. If you attempt to remove certain accounts, all personal information associated with it will be deleted.

You can only remove the first Google Account by resetting the phone to factory defaults.

On the Accounts & sync settings screen, touch

the account to be deleted.

Touch ,and then touch Remove account .

Confirm that you want to remove the account.

Customizing Your Account Synchronization

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-on ly.

Configuring General Synchronization Settings

On the Accounts & sync settings screen, do the following:

Select or clear the Background data check box to control whether applications and services can transmit data when you are not working with them directly (that is, when they are running in the background).

If you clear this option, Gmail stops receiving new mails, Calendar stops synchronizing events, and so on, until you refresh them.

Select or clear the Auto-sync check box to control whether changes you make to information on the phone or on the web are automatically synchronized with each other.

For example, when this option is selected, changes that you make in Contacts on the phone are automatically made in Google Contacts on the web.

Changing an Account’s Synchronization Settings

On the Accounts & sync settings screen, select

Background data and Auto-sync.

Touch the account for which you want to change

the synchronization settings. The data and synchronization screen opens, displaying a list of the kinds of information the account can synchronize.

Select the items you want to synchronize from the

list. Your phone will automatically synchronize the selected items.
