original installation file or the backup copy.
• To install software, search the device memory or
memory card for the installation file, select the file,
and press the enter key to start the installation. For
example, if you received the installation file as an email attachment, go to your mailbox, open the e-

Installing Java™ applications
1. Search the device memory or memory card for the
installation file, select the file, and press the enter
key to start the installation. For example, if you
received the installation file as an e-mail
attachment, go to your mailbox, open the e-mail,
select an installation file, and press the enter key to
start the installation.
2. Confirm the installation. The .JAR file extension is
required for installation. If it is missing, the device
may ask you to download it. If there is no access
point defined, you will be asked to select one. When
you download the .JAR file, you may need to enter a
user name and password to access the server. You
can obtain these from the application provider.
3. The device informs you when installation is
complete.
Tip: When browsing Web pages, you can
download an installation file and install it
immediately. Note, however, that the
connection runs in the background during
installation.
You can install and run Java™ applications on your
device. See Installing applications and software on
page 22.

Problems with printing
Your device shows a note if you cannot connect the
device to a compatible printer. Check that the printer is
switched on and is online, and that the connection
settings are correct in your device. Try printing a test
page, and check that the printer works with other
wireless devices.
If you are using an infrared connection, make sure you
have activated infrared, and the infrared ports of the
devices face each other. With a Bluetooth connection,
make sure you have activated Bluetooth, and the
devices are within range.
Managing mobile printing settings

settings, go to Desk → Tools → Control panel →
Extras → hp printer selection' . Set the following:
• Printer model—Select the printer you want to use.
If the specific printer model is not available, select a
similar model.
• Quality mode—Select the quality of the print.
Normal is for 600 dpi printing, Draft for fast, 300
dpi printing, Best for 1200 dpi printing, and Max for
2400/4800 dpi printing. To save ink or to increase
the speed of printing, select the option Normal or
Draft.
• Media type—Select the type of printing medium.
• Color mode—Select whether to print in color or

Data connections
This device supports packet data (GPRS), high-speed
data calls (HSCSD), GSM data calls, and wireless LAN
connections.
For information on packet data, high-speed data calls,
and GSM data calls, see the User Guide on CD-ROM.
Wireless local area network
(wireless LAN)
There may be restrictions on using wireless LAN in
some locations. Check with your local authorities or
service provider.
Features using wireless LAN, or allowing such features
to run in the background while using other features,
increase the demand on battery power and reduce the
battery life.
Your device is approved for use in a wireless LAN. You
can use wireless LAN to send and receive e-mail, and
connect your device to the Internet.
Your device supports the following wireless LAN
features:
• IEEE 802.11b standard
• Data rates of up to 11 Mbit/s
• Operation at a frequency of 2.4 GHz using direct
sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology
• Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) data encryption with
keys up to 232 bits.
• Wi-Fi protected access (WPA)
Note that the WEP and WPA functions can be used only
if they are supported by the network.
If you move the device to another location within the
wireless LAN and out of range of a wireless LAN access
point, the roaming functionality can automatically
connect your device to another access point that
belongs to the same network. As long as you remain
within range of access points that belong to the same
network, your device can stay connected to the network.
Your device enables different types of communication
in a wireless LAN. There are two operating modes to
choose from: infrastructure and ad hoc.
• The infrastructure operating mode allows two kinds
of communication: wireless devices communicate
with each other through a wireless LAN access point
or wireless devices communicate with a wired LAN
device through a wireless LAN access point.
The advantage of the infrastructure operating mode
is that you can have more control over network
connections because they pass through an access
point. A wireless device can access the services that
are available in a regular wired LAN: company
database, e-mail, the Internet, and other network
resources, for example.
• With 3rd party applications, you can send and
receive data directly with each other in the ad hoc
operating mode; no wireless LAN access point is
required. Simply make the necessary configurations
and start communicating. Ad hoc networking is easy
to set up, but communication is limited to devices
that are within range.
See Setting up an Internet access point for a wireless
LAN on page 86.
See Setting up an ad hoc network on page 104.

Messages
Your device supports the sending of text messages
beyond the normal 160-character limit. If your message
exceeds 160 characters, it will be sent as a series of two
or more messages.
At the top of the display, you can see the message
length indicator counting backwards from 160. For
example, 10/2 means that you can still add 10
characters for the text to be sent as two messages.
Note that using special (Unicode) characters such as ë,
â, á, take up more space.
If there are special characters in your message, the
indicator may not show the message length correctly.
Before the message is sent, the device tells you if the
message exceeds the maximum length allowed for one
message.
Press Menu, and select Messages.
You can write other types of messages on the
communicator interface. See Messaging on page 41.
• When sending messages, your device may display
the words Message sent . This is an indication that
the message has been sent by your device to the
message centre number programmed into your
device. This is not an indication that the message
has been received at the intended destination. For
more details about messaging services, check with
your service provider. To write a text message,
select Write message, and write the message. To
send the message, press the Call key or Send, and
enter the recipient's phone number, or press Search
