Use caller ID
Caller ID is a network service that identifies incoming calls. Contact your
service provider to find out how to get this feature.
When Caller ID is active, your phone shows the caller’s phone number
during an incoming call, as long as this number is a part of your service
provider’s wireless network.
The wireless network lets you know if it doesn’t recognize the calling
number. The wireless network will also let you know if the calling party
has blocked the Caller ID feature.
If you have stored the name and number of the calling party in your phone
book and that number is supported by the wireless network, the caller’s
name might also appear.
Get a strong signal
Your phone operates on radio waves, and the quality of radio reception
depends on the strength of the radio signal in your area. This radio coverage
is maintained by a wireless network, and the quality of calls on a wireless
phone depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
[ 14 ]
Make and answer calls
Check signal strength
When you are at the Start screen or in a call, the strength of the radio
signal is indicated by the signal indicators on the left side of your phone’s
screen. The signal indicators move up as the strength of the signal increases
and down as it decreases. Increasing your phone’s signal may be easy. Try
moving your phone slightly, or move toward a window if you’re calling
from inside a building.
This phone is optimized for digital service in a compact size. Therefore,
when your phone is operating in analog mode, the service area in which
you can place and receive calls may be smaller.
Keep calls private
The Voice Privacy feature encrypts the voice channel so that people
cannot eavesdrop on your phone conversations.
Voice Privacy is a network service, so you must contact your service
provider to obtain access to the feature.
To turn on Voice Privacy:
