TTY Mode
A TTY (teletypewriter, also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your 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.
To turn TTY Mode on or off:
1. From the Home screen, tap

Note:
Warning: 911 Emergency Calling
to turn TTY mode off.
When enabled, TTY mode may impair the audio quality of non-TTY devices connected to the headset jack.
It is recommended that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.

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, 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 several 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 Wi-Fi and tap the ON/OFF icon to turn Wi-Fi on. Tap the available network to
connect.
3. 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:
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.
Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for your phone to connect to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a user name and password for certain closed wireless networks.
