Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience
Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing background noise, intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and be heard
nearly anywhere.
How Does It Work?
Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:
● Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with.
● Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise ‑ so the person you're calling hears only your voice, without disturbing background noise.
● Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to speak louder to overcome surrounding noise.
The noise suppression technology is built‑in and already enabled in your new mobile phone. So it's ready to provide unsurpassed voice clarity with every call.

Extending Your Battery Life
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and GPS functionality all act to drain your battery. The following is
a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:
● Reduce the time your backlight stays on.
● Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.

Note: If you are visually impaired or have difficulty hearing, tap Accessibility to configure the accessibility
settings.
2. Tap Start and follow the on‑screen setup instructions.
● Deactivate your GPS functionality when not needed. Most applications using this function will periodically
query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your battery.
● Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before charging your device. Repeating this process
of a complete discharge and recharge can over time reduce the storage capacity of any battery.
● Use the Power Saving feature to deactivate some hardware and interface functions.
● Check the Battery use screen to review what features or functions have been consuming your battery
resources.
● Check the Running Services and close any unnecessary applications.
● Use the Task Manager feature to end/shutdown background applications that are still running. These
minimized applications can, over time, cause your device to “slow down”.

Screen Navigation
Using the touch screen display and the keys, you can navigate the features of your device and enter characters.
The following conventions are used in this manual to describe the navigation action in the procedures.
Important! This device no longer uses a hardware menu button. This function has been moved to an on-screen
Menu button.
Navigating Through the Screens

Press and hold: Pressing relates to use of the hardware keys and buttons to select or activate an item. For
example: press the Navigation key to scroll through a menu. Some buttons and keys require you to press
and hold them to activate a feature, for example, you press the Lock key to lock and unlock the device.
Tap: Use a brief touch to select items on the display or to enter text on the virtual QWERTY keyboard. For
example: touch an Application icon to open the application. A light touch works best.
Touch and hold: Touch and hold an icon or key to open the available options, or to access a pop‑up
menu. For example: touch and hold from the Home screen to access a menu of customization options.

vertical motion, such as when flicking through contacts or a message list.

move the area of focus or to scroll through a list. For example: slide your finger left or right on the Home
screen to scroll among the seven panels.
Drag: Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to move it. Do not release your
finger until you have reached the target position.
Rotate: Automatically change the screen orientation from portrait to landscape by turning the device
sideways. For example: rotate to landscape orientation when entering text, to provide a larger keyboard,
or when viewing web content to minimize scrolling.
Pinch: “Pinch” the screen using your thumb and forefinger to zoom out when viewing a picture or a Web
page. (Move fingers inward to zoom out.)

Contact Entry Options
1. From the Contacts screen, tap an entry to reveal the Contact Overview Screen. This screen contains Name,
contact numbers, email, and linked contact information.
Linking Contact Information
Most people now maintain multiple email accounts, social networking logins, and other similar account information.
For example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a corporate email account login because they are
maintained separately and for different groups of people.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts. When you synchronize your phone with those accounts, each
account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a
Facebook account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Video! chat account, when you merge those
accounts into your Contacts list you can join all of her entries and view the information in one record.
Joining contact information makes sending messages easy. You can select any account email address or
information all from one screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate the desired account
information.
Next time you synchronize your device with your accounts, any updates contacts make to email account names,
email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.
1. From the Home screen, tap Apps g Contacts.
2. Tap a contact name (the name you want to link to another entry) to reveal the Contact entry’s Overview
Screen.
Note: Typically this is the same contact with a different name or account information.

Note: The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one record for easier viewing when you
link the contacts.
Important! It is the first contact image that is displayed for both, and the first contact’s name that is used.
For example: If Amy (original entry) is joined with Julie (second entry). Julie seems to disappear and only Amy remains. Tap the Amy entry (showing the Amy image) to view both.
5. Tap the main linked contact to view the contact information you linked. The contacts and information
displays with an icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of account information is contained in
the entry.
Unlinking a Contact
1. From the Contacts screen, tap a contact name (the account name from which you want to unjoin an entry). This
reveals the details for entry.
Note: Typically this is the same contact with a different name or account information.

Marking a Contact as Default
When you use applications such as the Voice Dialer or other messaging type applications, the application needs to
know which information is primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example, when you say “Call John Smith”, if
you have three phone records for John Smith, the Voice dialer is looking for the “default” number or entry.
The Mark as default option marks one entry in a contact record to use as the default. This comes in handy when
you have multiple entries for the same person.
1. From the Contacts screen, tap a Contact entry.
2. Tap Menu g Mark as default. The Mark as default screen displays radio buttons next to the contact
name, phone number, or other contact information.
