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.

Important notice
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.
To turn Wi-Fi on and connect to a Wi-Fi network:
On the home screen, touch the
1
Applications tab and select Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings.
Touch Wi-Fi to turn it on and
2
start scanning for available Wi-Fi networks.
A list of available Wi-Fi networks is
displayed. Secured networks are indicated by a lock icon.
Touch a network to connect to it.
3
If the network is open, you are
prompted to confirm you want to connect to that network by touching Connect. If the network is secured, you are
prompted to enter a password or other credentials. (Ask your network administrator for details.)
The status bar displays icons
4
indicating Wi-Fi status.

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.
10
TIP! Going back to a recent Application
Touch and hold the Home key. A screen will appear listing the applications you have used recently.

HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a compact audio/ video interface for transmitting uncompressed digital data. If you connect your phone to a TV or monitor using an HDMI cable, you 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 > Resolution.)
