Charging the Battery

Indicator Light

The battery comes with a sufficient charge to complete the setup process and activate your phone. After activation, we recommend charging your device for three and a half hours to give it a full charge. See “Maximizing Battery Life” on page 19 for tips on maximizing the life of your device’s battery.

1. Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.

2. Connect the charger cable to the charger jack on the bottom of the device. Make sure

the arrow on the connector is facing up, toward your device’s screen.

3. To confirm that your device is charging, check the indicator light.

䡲 Red indicates that your device is charging. 䡲 Green indicates that your device is fully charged.

If the battery is fully drained, it may take a few moments for the indicator light to turn on while the battery is charging.

16 Section 1A: Device Setup

Tip:

You can also charge your device by connecting it to your computer with the sync cable. You can do this with or without using the charger cable (see “Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer” on page 34). Keep in mind that it takes longer to charge the battery using the sync cable, and if your laptop isn’t plugged into a power source, it can drain the laptop’s battery.

The onscreen battery icon displays the power status:

䢇 Full battery : Battery is not connected to a wall outlet and is fully charged.

䢇 Partial battery : Battery is not connected to a wall outlet and has some power but is

not fully charged.

䢇 Almost-empty battery with red at the bottom : Battery needs to be charged

immediately.

Note:

Your device’s indicator light blinks red when the battery needs to be charged.

䢇 Red lightning bolt : Battery is connected to a wall outlet and is charging.

䢇 Green lightning bolt : Battery is connected to a wall outlet and is fully charged.

Tip:

To see exactly how much power is left in your battery, tap the onscreen battery icon.

Section 1A: Device Setup 17

Using a Sprint Charger Adapter

Sprint Charger Adapter

If the connector on your Sprint-approved 1 Amp AC charger or vehicle charger doesn’t fit into the connector on the bottom of your device, use the included Sprint charger adapter.

WAR NIN G:

Use only with 1 Amp AC chargers distributed by Sprint for your device. Using any unapproved AC charger may destroy the AC charger and cause a fire.

1. Plug the AC charger into a power source.

2. Connect the Sprint charger adapter to the

charger jack on bottom of the device.

3. Connect the charger cable to the Sprint charger

adapter.

4. Charge your device as described earlier.

Battery Life

Battery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal strength, speakerphone use, and use of wireless features.

If the battery drains to the point where your device doesn’t turn on, the device stores your information safely until you recharge the battery. To avoid draining the battery, we recommend that you charge and synchronize your device every day, especially if you use the wireless features of your phone often.

Note:

Using your device’s phone has an effect on the battery life. You can extend the battery life by turning off your device’s phone while using the organizer features. In any case, regular charging is recommended for optimal performance.

18 Section 1A: Device Setup

Maximizing Battery Life

You can increase the life of your device’s battery by following a few easy guidelines. Remember that battery life depends on how you use your device.

䢇 Charge your device whenever you’re at your desk, or charge it overnight each day. The

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is fully drained.

䢇 Your device’s wireless features (phone, email, messaging, Web, and any applications

that use a Sprint Power Vision connection, such as Sprint TV) and media features (camera, media players, eBooks, and games) consume more power than its organizer features. If you spend a lot of time using the wireless and media features, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.

䢇 If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your device for awhile, turn off your

phone (see “Turning Your Device’s Phone On and Off” on page 55). You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail (see “Call Forwarding” on page 71).

䢇 As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage, your device

searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an area of better coverage, you may want to temporarily turn off your phone. While your phone is off, you can continue to use your device’s nonwireless features.

䢇 Turn down the screen brightness (see “Adjusting the Brightness” on page 262). 䢇 Decrease the settings in Power Preferences and turn off Beam Receive (see “Optimizing

Power Settings” on page 271).

䢇 Turn off the Bluetooth feature if you are not using it (see “Connecting to a Bluetooth

Hands-Free Device” on page 79).

Tip:

You can buy an extra battery as a spare for long airplane trips or periods of heavy use. To purchase batteries that are compatible with your smart device, go to www.palm.com/mypalm/755psprint.

Why Connect My Device to My Computer?

You need to install the desktop software and connect the sync cable so that you can synchronize the information on your computer with the information on your device. You can use either Palm® Desktop software (included) or Microsoft Outlook for Windows (sold separately) as your synchronization software.

Synchronization means you can enter or change information on your device or on your computer and then synchronize to automatically update the information in both places. There’s no need to enter the information twice. We strongly recommend that you synchronize your device and your computer frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

System Requirements

Windows computers

䢇 Windows 2000, XP Service Pack 2, or Windows Media Center Edition 䢇 32MB of available memory (RAM) 䢇 170MB of free hard disk space 䢇 CD drive 䢇 Available USB port

Mac computers

䢇 Mac OS X version 10.2 or later 䢇 128MB of total memory (RAM) 䢇 190MB of free hard disk space 䢇 CD drive 䢇 Available USB port

Upgrading From Another Palm OS® Device

Note:

If you are setting up your first Palm OS® device, skip ahead to “Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer” on page 34.

You can transfer all compatible applications and information from your previous Palm OS device to your new Treo™ 755

P smart device by Palm. This includes your calendar events,

contacts, memos, and tasks, as well as your application settings and any compatible third-party applications and files.

When you install Palm Desktop software, some third-party applications may be quarantined because they are not compatible with the Palm OS software version 5.4.9 on your new Treo device. Quarantined files are not installed on your device, nor are they deleted; these files are placed in a new folder on your computer: C:\Program Files\Palm\<device name>\PalmOS5 Incompatible Apps. (On some systems, Palm may be replaced with palmOne or Handspring.)

Note:

Some third-party utilities allow you to back up your old device’s information onto an expansion card and then transfer the information to your Treo device. We do not recommend this method because any incompatible applications are also transferred.

1. Calculate how much space your applications and information occupy on your previous

Palm OS device:

䡲 From Applications view, press Menu . 䡲 Select Info on the App menu. 䡲 At the bottom of the screen, select Size.

Computer Connection

Section 1C: Computer Connection 29

䡲 Look at the numbers on the Free Space line and subtract

the number on the left from the number on the right to calculate the space used. For example, on the device shown here, 22.4 - 17.5 = 4.9. This means that 4.9MB of space is occupied on this device.

2. If the space occupied on your old device is 60MB or less, go to

step 3. If the space occupied is greater than 60MB, then do any of the following to free up some space before you go to the next step:

䡲 Delete any third-party applications that you no longer use. 䡲 Move large files, such as eBooks and images, to an expansion card. 䡲 Move third-party applications to an expansion card. 䡲 Purge old information in applications such as Calendar (Date Book), Tasks (To D o),

and email. Refer to the documentation that came with your old device for instructions on these items.

3. Synchronize your old device with your old desktop software to back up your

information one last time.

4. Connect your new smart device to your computer (see “Connecting Your Treo Device

to Your Computer” on page 34).

5. Install the new desktop synchronization software from the Palm Software Installation

CD (see “Installing the Desktop Synchronization Software” on page 32).

Important:

Do not synchronize your new Treo 755P smart device by Palm with any previous versions of Palm Desktop software.

6. During the installation process, synchronize your new Treo device with your new

desktop synchronization software as instructed. When prompted, do the following:

䡲 Connect your new device to your computer (see “Connecting Your Treo Device to

Your Computer” on page 34).

30 Section 1C: Computer Connection

䡲 Indicate whether you want to sync all applications or only PIM (personal

information management) applications.

䡲 Select a device name for your new device; be sure to select the same name that

you used for your old device. (This is the name that appears in the User list in Palm Desktop software.)

7. (Mac users only) If you have pictures on your old device, copy them from your old

device to an expansion card or beam them to your new Treo devi ce.

8. If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset to remove its

associated device name. (See the documentation that came with your old device for instructions on performing a hard reset.) Each device you synchronize with your computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize your old device with your computer, be sure to assign it a new name.

If any third-party applications are quarantined during the installation, do not manually install any of the quarantined files. Contact the third-party developer for software updates and information about compatibility with your new device.

Moving Around the Device Screen

Left

Right

Center

Down

To move around the screen on your Treo™ 755P smart device by Palm, you can use the 5-way navigator for one-handed navigation, or you can tap items on the screen with the

stylus. With use, you can find your own favorite way to scroll, highlight, and select menu items.

Note:

The 5-way includes Right , Left , Up , Down , and Center buttons.

Some third-party applications may not work with the 5-way, and you must use the stylus instead. In this guide, arrow icons are used to indicate directions on the 5-way. These arrows are different from any onscreen scroll arrows or pick-list arrows.

Scrolling Through Screens

As on a computer, you scroll on the Treo device to move from field to field or page to page, or in some cases to highlight an item or option in a list.

42 Section 2A: Moving Around

The behavior of the 5-way for list screens and entry screens varies by application. Here

Scroll Arrows

Scroll Bar

are some general scrolling tips that apply to most applications:

䢇 Press Right , Left , Up , and Down on the 5-way to move to the next field,

button, or action in that direction.

䢇 In list screens, press and hold Up or Down to scroll one screen at a time. 䢇 Press Option and Up or Down to scroll to the

next page of information within the current record (see “Using the Keyboard” on page 46).

䢇 When inside a text field, press Right or Left to scroll

to the next character or word, and press Up or Down

to scroll between lines.

You can also scroll using the stylus. Tap an onscreen scroll arrow, or drag the slider of an onscreen scroll bar.

Highlighting and Selecting Items

On most screens, one item—a button, a list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next

action. Use the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to another before opening or selecting it.

The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:

䢇 Border glow: When an onscreen button (OK, Cancel, etc.) or pick list

is highlighted, the button acquires a glow around its border.

䢇 Colored background: When a phone number, text, an email

address, or a Web link is highlighted, the item appears as white text against a colored background.

After highlighting an item, you can select or activate it by pressing Center or by tapping the item with the stylus.

Section 2A: Moving Around 43

Highlighting Text

Menu Shortcut

You can use the stylus to highlight text on the screen.

䢇 Tap and drag the stylus across the text you want to highlight. 䢇 To highlight a word, double-tap it. 䢇 To highlight a paragraph, triple-tap it.

Accessing Command Buttons

In most applications, command buttons such as New, OK, and Details appear at the bottom of the screen. In many cases, you can jump directly to these buttons instead of scrolling to

them. The 5-way

controls vary according to the application, but here are some general

rules that apply to most applications:

䢇 From a list screen, such as the Contacts list or Memos list, press Right or Down to

jump to the first button.

䢇 From a screen where you create or edit entries, such as Edit Contacts, press Center

to jump to the first button.

䢇 From a dialog box, such as Edit Categories, press Up , Down , Right , or Left to

scroll to the buttons.

Selecting Menu Items

Many applications have menus to provide access to additional features. These menus are usually hidden from view, but they appear when you press Menu . To get the most out of your device, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the additional features available through the various application menus.

1. Press Menu to open an application’s menus.

2. Press Right and Left to switch between menus.

3. Press Up and Down to highlight a menu item.

44 Section 2A: Moving Around

4. Press Center to select the menu item, or press Menu to close the menus and

cancel your selection.

Tip:

Most menu items have menu shortcuts listed in the menu. To use a menu shortcut, press Menu plus the shortcut letter. You don’t have to see the menu item to use the menu shortcut. For example, when you’re in Calendar, you can press Menu + N to create a new event.

Selecting Options in a Pick List

A range of options is often presented in a type of menu called a pick list, which can be identified by a downward-pointing arrow. Pick lists are different from the application menus previously described. The application menus give you access to additional features, and pick lists enable you to select the contents for a particular field.

You can select an option from a pick list with the 5-way or the stylus:

䢇 Use the 5-way to highlight the pick list, and then press Center to display the

items in the list. Press Up and Down to highlight the item you want, and then press Center

selection, press Left or Right .

䢇 Use your stylus to tap the pick list, and then tap the item you want from the list. To exit

the pick list without making a selection, tap outside the list.

In addition to the stereo headset included with your Treo device, your device is compatible with the following types of headsets that are sold separately:

䢇 Wired headsets with a 2.5mm connector (3-pin or 4-pin). 䢇 Wireless headsets and car kits enabled with Bluetooth 1.1 or 1.2 wireless technology.

Note:

For a list of compatible hands-free devices, go to

Note:

The headset designed for Treo™ 180, 270, and 300 devices is not compatible with your Treo 755P smart device by Palm. Standard headsets sold with other Sprint phones are compatible with your device. If you hear a headset buzz or experience poor microphone performance, your headset may be incompatible with your device.

Connecting to a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device

Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth hands-free device such as a headset or car kit, you can communicate with that device whenever it is turned on and within range. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and range may be affected by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

the specific hands-free device. When prompted, enter a passkey.

Important:

Some hands-free devices have a predefined passkey. If your device has a predefined passkey, you can find the passkey in the documentation for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your Treo device and your hands-free device. We recommend that, where possible, you make up a passkey of 16 alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the security of your device. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered.

80 Section 2B: Phone Features

8. After you finish setting up the device, select Done to return to Trusted Devices view.

(MFB) on the hands-free device.

You know that the connection is successful when you see a headset

icon in the title bar

Using a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device

After you create a partnership with your Bluetooth hands-free device and you turn it on within range (up to 30 feet), your Treo device automatically routes all calls to the hands-free device instead of to the earpiece on your Treo device. When a call comes in, your Treo device rings and the hands-free device beeps. Even if you answer the call on your Treo device, the call goes to the hands-free device. If you prefer to route calls to the earpiece on your Treo device, you can change the settings on your device to do this (see “Customizing Advanced Settings for Your Hands-Free Device” on page 83).

The features available on your hands-free device vary by model. Check the documentation for your hands-free device for details on the supported features and how to use those features. Your Treo device can support the following features, provided that your hands-free device also supports them:

䢇 Answer an incoming call. 䢇 Hang up a call and answer a call-waiting call. 䢇 Place a call on hold and answer a call-waiting call. 䢇 Hang up a single call. 䢇 Transfer a call from the device’s earpiece to the hands-free device.

䢇 Transfer speed-dial favorites and Contacts entries containing phone numbers from your

device to the hands-free device phone book, up to the maximum number of entries allowed in your hands-free device’s phone book.

Tip:

Your device transfers speed-dial favorites first, and then contacts in alphabetical order up to the maximum number of entries allowed in your hands-free device’s phone book. So if you have important numbers that you want to show up in your hands-free device’s phone book, be sure to create speed-dial favorites for them before you transfer the numbers.

TTY Use With Sprint Service

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.

Your device is compatible with select TTY devices. You can connect a TTY/TDD machine, headset, or hands-free kit to your device through the headset jack while this mode is enabled. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device for connectivity information and to ensure that the TTY device supports digital wireless transmission.

When establishing your Sprint Service, please call Sprint Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first pressing 711, and then pressing Tal k . Then provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

911 Emergency Calling

Sprint recommends 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 PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.
