Important notice
Please check this section to see if
any problems you have had with your
phone are described, before taking
the phone in for servicing or calling a
service representative.
1. Phone memory
When the available space in your
phone memory is less than 10%,
your phone can't receive new
messages. You will need to delete
some data from your phone memory,
such as applications or messages, to
provide more memory space.
To manage the application:
On the home screen, touch the
1
Applications tab and select
Settings > Applications >
Manage applications.
When all applications appear,
2
scroll down to the application you
want to uninstall and select it.
Tap Uninstall and touch OK to
3
uninstall the selected application.
6
WARNING
If you delete your data stored
on the internal SD card of your
phone, you cannot restore it using
the Factory data reset option
(Settings > Privacy > Factory data
reset).
2. Optimising battery life
You can extend your battery's life by
turning off features that you don't
need that run in the background. You
can also monitor how applications
and system resources use battery
power.
To extend the life of your battery:
Turn off radio communications
•
that aren't in use. Turn off Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth or GPS when not in use.
Turn down screen brightness and
•
set a shorter screen timeout.
Turn off automatic syncing for
•
Gmail, Calendar, Contacts and
other applications.
Some applications you have
•
downloaded may reduce your
battery’s life.
To check the battery charge level:
On the home screen, touch the
1
Applications tab and select
Settings > About phone >
Status.
The battery status (charging,
2
discharging) and level (as a
percentage of a full charge) are
displayed at the top of the screen.
To monitor and control battery
use:
On the home screen, touch the
1
Applications tab and select
Settings > About phone >
Battery use.
The top of the screen displays
2
the battery usage time. This
is either how long since your
phone was last connected to a
power source or, if connected to
a power source, how long since
your phone last ran on battery
power. The body of the screen
lists the applications or services
using battery power, from highest
consumption to least.
3. Installing an open
source OS
If you install an open source OS on
your phone and do not use the OS
provided by the manufacturer, your
phone may malfunction.
WARNING
If you install and use an OS
other than the one provided by
the manufacturer, your phone
will not be covered by
warranty.

WARNING
r phone and
To protect you
personal data, only download
applications from trusted
sources such as Android
Market. If some applications
are incorrectly installed on your
phone, your phone may not
work properly, or serious errors
may occur. You will need to
remove these applications and
all their data and settings from
the phone.
Caution: Create a Gmail account
first, before setting an unlock pattern.
WARNING
Precautions to take when
using Pattern Lock
It is essential that you remember
the unlock pattern you set.
You have five chances to enter
your unlock pattern, PIN or
password. Once you have used
all five chances, you can try
again 30 seconds later.
4. Using unlock pattern
Set unlock pattern to secure your
phone. This opens a set of screens
that guide you through drawing a
screen unlock pattern.
You can draw your own unlock
pattern by connecting four or more
dots.
If you set a pattern, the phone
screen will lock. To unlock the phone,
enter the pattern you have set on the
screen.
8
If you can’t remember your unlock
pattern, PIN or password:
If you have tried to log on to your
Google account on the phone and
failed to enter the correct pattern five
times, tap the Forgot pattern button.
You will then be required to sign in
with your Google account to unlock
your phone.
If you haven’t created a Google
account on the phone or cannot
remember it, you will have to carry
out a factory reset.
5. Connecting to Wi-Fi
networks
To use Wi-Fi on your phone you need
to access a wireless access point or
“hotspot.” Some access points are
open, and you can simply connect
to them. Others are hidden or have
other security features, so you must
configure your phone to connect to
them.
Turn off Wi-Fi when you're not using
it to extend the life of your battery.

6. Opening and switching
applications
Multi-tasking is easy with Android
because open applications keep
running even when you open a
further application. You do not
need to quit an application before
opening another one. Use and switch
between several opened applications.
Android manages each application,
stopping and starting it as needed,
to ensure idle applications don’t
consume resources unnecessarily.
To stop using an application:
On the home screen, touch the
1
Applications tab and select
Settings> Applications>
Manage applications.
Scroll to the chosen application
2
and touch Force Stop to close it.

can see the image and video files on
the TV or monitor when the image
viewer/video player is visible on your
phone screen. You can also play 3D
content on a 3D TV or 3D monitor.
Note: It may take time to play
media files depending on the device
connected to your phone. Files may
not be played properly when using a
non-HDMI certified cable or product.
The image orientation you set on
your phone is also used on the TV
or monitor.
3D content may not be transmitted
automatically if your phone and 3D
TV support different HDMI versions.
In this case, you can change the
3D settings of TV referring to the
TV user’s manual. When using a
HDMI cable, 3D video playback, 3D
camera preview, or 3D video camera
preview is displayed only on a TV
or monitor. HDMI OUT may not be
supported from some of files due to
request from copyright owner. If your
phone is connected to TV or monitor
with the low HDMI resolution, the
high resolution video playback/
camera preview may not display on
TV or monitor. If your phone data is
not displayed properly on the device
due to a sync issue, you need to
change the resolution of your phone.
(On the Home screen, tap the Menu
key, and then tap Settings > HDMI >

Be careful when using your phone
near other electronic devices. RF
emissions from your mobile phone
may affect nearby in adequately
shielded electronic equipment. You
should consult with manufacturers of
any personal medical devices such
