Voice Mail
Your phone comes with the Voice Mail application. Voice Mail allows you to manage your Voice
Mail directly from your phone rather than calling to your Voice Mail box. Voice Mail displays a
list of your messages and allows you to choose which message(s) to listen to or delete. Or you
can choose the traditional Voice Mail service.
You must subscribe to Voice Mail before using this feature. As a subscription based service,
there is a charge for using Voice Mail. See Set Up Voice Mail on page 9 for setting it up.

TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device
will connect using a special cable that plugs into your phone’s headset jack. If this cable was not
provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the
connector cable.

Web and Data
Your phone’s data capabilities let you wirelessly access the Internet or your corporate network
through a variety of connections, including Wi-Fi, 4G LTE, 4G, 3G, 2G, and Virtual
Private Networks (VPN).
The following topics address your phone’s data connections and the built-in Web browser.
Additional data-related features can be found in Accounts and Messaging, Apps and
Entertainment, and Tools and Calendar.
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access. To use your phone’s Wi-Fi, you need access to a
wireless access point or "hotspot."
The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on a number of factors, including
infrastructure and other objects through which the signal passes.
Turn Wi-Fi On and Connect to a Wireless Network
Use the Wireless & networks setting menu to enable your phone’s Wi-Fi radio and connect to an
available Wi-Fi network.
1. From the Home screen, tap
2. Tap
3. Tap the ON/OFF switch to turn Wi-Fi on. The network names of detected Wi-Fi networks
are displayed.
4. Tap a Wi-Fi network to connect. If you selected an open network, you will be
automatically connected to the network. If you selected a network that is secured with a
password, enter the password and then tap CONNECT.
Depending on the network type and its security settings, you may also need to enter more
information or choose a security certificate.
When your phone is connected to a wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon appears in the status
bar and tells you the approximate signal strength. (The above icon indicates maximum signal
strength.)
Note:
The next time your phone connects to a previously accessed secured wireless network,
you will not be prompted to enter the password again, unless you reset your phone to its
factory default settings or you instruct the phone to forget the network.
