Section 1: Getting Started

This section explains how to start using your phone by first configuring your hardware, activating your service, and then setting up your voice mail.

Setting Up Your Phone

Prior to use, it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM into their corresponding internal compartments. The microSD card slot is also located in this same internal area.

Removing the Battery Cover

1. Remove the battery cover by placing your thumbnail into

the slot at the bottom of the phone (1). If you have fragile nails, use a pointed object.

2. Lift the cover up and off the phone (2).

Installing the SIM Card

Make sure the gold contacts of the card face into the phone, and that the angled corner of the card is positioned as shown, as you slide the SIM card into the socket.

Important!:

The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts can be easily damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.

Note:

If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone does not detect the SIM card. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.

Charging a Battery

Correct

DATA LINK CABLE

Incorrect

Correct

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Adapter that is used to charge the battery, is included with your phone. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers.

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging, doing so requires additional charging time.

Note:

You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.

Using the Travel Adapter

1. With the battery installed, lift and rotate the plastic Power/

Accessory Interface connector cover at the bottom left side of the phone.

Important!:

Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connection. If the battery is not properly installed and the wall charger is connected, the handset may power off and on continuously, preventing proper operation.

2. Plug the data cable into the base piece provided and into

the Power/Accessory Interface connector on your phone.

3. Plug the base piece into a standard AC wall outlet.

Getting Started 7

Page 12

When the battery is fully charged, the phone displays a

message telling you the battery is full. Remove the connector from the phone.

Warning!:

If your handset has a touch screen display, please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger. Using excessive force when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For more information, refer to “Standard Limited Warranty” on page 182.

Note:

Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery can cause damage to the phone.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the device sounds a warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your phone conserves its remaining battery power, not by turning off the backlight, but by entering the dimming mode. For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your device’s display. Five bars ( ) indicate a full charge.

When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off.

Switching the Phone On or Off

1. Press and hold or until the phone switches on.

The phone launches the activation splash screen and then proceeds to search for the network. Once the network has been found, you can make or receive calls.

Using the Multitasking Menu

The Multitask key ( ) launches the Multitask menu that can be activated from within any active window or page on the phone. There is no need to stop what you are doing, if you want to quickly activate another common feature.

The idea is to allow you to temporarily exit from your current location to access a group of common functions such as: Call, Messaging, Mobile Web, Music Player, Games, and End all. Using this key keeps you from having to completely exit from your current task or window, whether that be a text message, a web page, or an active call, just to quickly do something else.

Here is an example:

You might be in the middle of typing up an email or text message, when you suddenly realize that you need to make a quick call.

Typically, you would have to exit from your current message, navigate to the Idle screen, make your call, after which you would have to go back and re-create your message.

Using this same situation, all you would have to do is:

1. Press until the you see the Multitask menu

screen.

2. Touch

3. Once you are done, hang up the call normally and you are

, then enter your number and continue the call.

returned to the previous message screen.

Multitask Functions

Pressing the Multitasking key ( ) on the right side of the handset, allows you to choose from one of the following functions:

•

Call

: allows you to make a voice call while using the handset for other

tasks. If Music Player is active, it is muted during the call.

End all?

: closes all running applications or tasks and returns you to the

Idle screen.

Section 4: Entering Text

Create New Message Portrait Keypad

This section outlines how to select the desired text input mode when entering characters into your phone. This section also describes how to use the T9 predictive text entry system to reduce the number of key strokes associated with entering text.

Your phone comes equipped with an orientation detector that can tell if the phone is being held in an upright (portrait) or sideways (landscape) orientation. This is useful when entering text. If the phone is sideways, an on-screen, QWERTY keypad is displayed. When upright, the alphanumeric keypad is displayed.

Keys

You can enter characters into your phone by using an on-screen portrait keypad or a landscape QWERTY keypad. Depending on which format you use, the keys are associated with different letters, special characters, or numbers. Refer to the following layouts to determine which keys are associated with letters, special characters, or numbers.

From a screen where you can enter text, rotate your phone counterclockwise to a Landscape orientation and the on-screen QWERTY keypad displays.

Page 51

By default, the first letter of an entry is capitalized and all

consecutive letters are kept in lowercase unless you touch the

Shift

key. After entering a character, the cursor automatically advances to the next space after two seconds or when you enter a character on a different key.

Using the QWERTY Keypad

This phone also offers the convenience of an on-screen QWERTY keypad. Using the QWERTY keypad to type letters, numbers, punctuation, and other special characters into text entry fields or other applications should be simpler and faster than using the portrait keypad.

The following keys perform special functions when entering text:

Shift:

Changing the Text Input Mode

When using your phone, you often need to enter text, such as when storing a name in your Address Book, creating your personal greeting, or scheduling events on your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by using your phone’s keypad.

Your phone has the following text input modes:

•

ABC

: allows you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with the

corresponding letter.

•

T9Ab

: allows you to enter words with only one keystroke per letter. The T9 mode automatically compares the series of keystrokes you make with an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most likely word, thus requiring fewer keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.

•

Numeric

: allows you to enter numbers.

•

Symbols

: allows you to enter symbols, such as punctuation marks.

Note:

When characters can be entered in a field, the text input mode indicator displays on the top right portion of the screen.

Example:

Although you may add additional fields to a SIM entry; if you move that same SIM card to another model phone, it is possible that only the basic information will be transferred.

AT&T Address Book Activation

Upon activation of AT&T Address Book, the network backup service, contacts are automatically synchronized between your phone and online address book server. The changes you make are automatically saved and if you ever upgrade, damage, or lose your phone, you can easily restore your contacts onto your new phone.
