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.
Page 7
•
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.

included with your device. Use only approved batteries and
chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.
Before using your device for the first time, you must fully
charge the battery.

Note:
USB 3.0
USB 2.0 connector
connector
Verify that the battery is installed prior to connecting the
wall charger. If both the wall charger is connected and
the battery is not installed, the handset will power cycle
continuously and prevent proper operation. Failure to
unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery,
can cause the device to become damaged.
To connect a USB 3.0 cable to the device:
1. Connect the USB cable to the charging head.
2. Locate the Charger/Accessory jack.
3. Carefully remove the cover (1) and insert the USB 3.0
cable into the device’s Charger/Accessory jack (2).
Important!
It is recommended you fully charge the battery
before using your device for the first time.
Note:
If the charger is incorrectly connected, damage to the
accessory port will occur therefore voiding the phone’s
warranty.
For more information, see “Enabling the USB 3.0 Connection” on page 185.

4. Plug the charging head into a standard AC power
outlet. The device turns on with the screen locked and
indicates both its charge state and percent of charge.
Page 21
Warning!
While the device is charging, if the touch screen
does not function due to an unstable power supply
unplug the USB power adapter from the power outlet
or unplug the USB cable from the device.
5. When charging is finished, first unplug the charger’s
power plug from the AC wall outlet, then disconnect
the charger’s connector from the device.
6. If you are using the older style USB 2.0 cable to charge
your battery, plug the flat end of the cable into the
smaller port in the device’s Charger/Accessory jack.
7. When charging is finished, first unplug the charger’s
power plug from the AC wall outlet, then disconnect
the charger’s connector from the phone.
Important!
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 or a non-metallic
stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic object
when pressing on the touch screen may damage
the tempered glass surface and void the warranty.
Maintaining water and dust resistance
This device is rated IP67 using the Ingress Protection rating
system. The dust rating is 6 (highest level of protection), and
the water resistance rating is 7 (water resistant up to 1 meter
for up to 30 minutes). Despite this classification, your device
is not impervious to water damage in any situation. It is
important that all compartments are closed tightly.
Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device.
•
Whenever your device gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a clean,
soft cloth.
•
Do not expose the device to salt water or ionized water, or to
water over 1 meter deep for more than 30 minutes. If your device
is exposed to salt water, wash the device with fresh water then
dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. Otherwise, when it dries,
salt may accumulate and block the microphone, earpiece, and
speaker.
•
When drying off your device, be sure to pat the earpiece (top front
of phone), microphone (bottom of phone), and speaker (rear of
phone) with a clean, soft cloth to remove as much water as
possible.
Getting Started 14
Page 22
•
When making a call immediately after your device is wet, the
microphone may have water in it which may lower the volume
that the other person will hear. After drying off the device, allow
the device to air-dry before making a call.
•
The back and multipurpose jack covers may be loosened slightly
if the device is dropped or receives an impact. Ensure that all the
covers are properly aligned and tightly closed. Otherwise, they
may not provide protection from water and dust.
•
Always keep the multipurpose jack cover clean and be careful to
avoid damaging it.
Note:
The touch screen may not be active in water.

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.
•
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.
•
Deactivate your GPS Location 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.
Page 23
•
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”.
•
Animated wallpapers use processing power, memory, and more
power. Change your Live Wallpaper to a non-animated Wallpaper

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.
