Charging the Battery

Correct

Incorrect

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A wall charger, which is used for charging the battery, is included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.

Before using your phone for the first time, you must fully charge the battery. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.

Note:

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 preven t proper operation. Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the batt ery, can cause the phone to become damaged.

Important!:

It is recommended you fully charge the battery before using your

device for the first time.

1. Locate the Charger/Accessory jack and slide open the

cover (1).

2. Insert the USB cable into the device’s Charger/Accessory

jack (2).

3. 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.

and incorrect orientation for

Getting Started 11

Page 16

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 metal l ic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For more information, refer to “Warranty Information” on page 190.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time remain, a warning tone sounds and the “Low battery” message repeats at regular intervals on the display. In this condition, your phone conserves its remaining battery power, by dimming the backlight.

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

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 your backlight on time.

•

Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.

•

Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.

•

Deactivate the GPS 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.

•

Turn off Automatic application sync.

•

Use the Power Savings Widget to deactivate hardware functions such as

Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, or LCD brightness setti ng.

•

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”.

•

Turn off any streaming services after use.

•

Animated wallpapers use processing power, memory, and more power.

Change your Live wallpaper to a non-animated Wallpaper gallery or Gallery image.

Power Savings

Active applications, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, Location consent, or the LCD Brightness functionality all act to drain your battery.

Task Manager

Your phone can run applications simultaneously, with some applications running in the background.

Sometimes your device might seem to slow down over time, and the biggest reason for this are background applications. These are applications that were not properly closed or shutdown and are still active but minimized. The Task Manager not only lets you see which of these applications are still active in the background but also easily lets you choose which applications are left running and which are closed.

Note:

The larger the number of applications running on your phone, the larger the energy drain on your battery.

Section 5: Entering Text

Default Text Input Method

This section describes how to select the desired text input method when entering characters into your phone. This section also describes the predictive text entry system that reduces the amount 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.

Your phone also provides several on-screen keypad text entry options to make the task of text entry that much easier.

Text Input Methods

There are two text input methods available:

•

Samsung keypad -

An on-screen QWERTY keypad that can be

used in both portrait and landscape orientation.

•

Swype -

(default) A new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of tapping each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a word.

The on-screen QWERTY keypad works the same in both portrait and landscape mode.

Entering Text Using Swype

Swype™ is the default text input method that allows you to enter a word by sliding your finger or stylus from letter to letter, lifting your finger between words. SWYPE uses error correcting algorithms and a language model to predict the next word. SWYPE also includes a touch predictive text system.

The on-screen keyboard options are different between the Android keyboard and Swype on-screen input methods.

Joining 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 (such as Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, or Google). 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 phone with your accounts, any updates contacts make to email account names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.

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.

Email

Email (or Internet Email) enables you to review and create email using several email services. You can also receive text message alerts when you receive an important email. Your phone’s Email application lets you access and manage multiple email accounts simultaneously in one convenient location.

There are currently three main types of email accounts on your phone: Gmail, Internet-based email (Gmail, Yahoo, etc..), and Microsoft Exchange (Corporate email or Outlook®).

To send and receive email messages through an ISP (Internet Service Provider) account, or if you wish to use your device to access your corporate email through a VPN (Virtual Private Network), you will first need to set up an IMAP or POP account.

•

IMAP -

(Internet Message Access Protocol) This protocol is frequently used in large networks and commercial settings. MAP4 is the current standard.

•

POP3 -

(Post Office Protocol) This protocol is supported by most ISPs (Internet service providers) and common among consumer applications. POP3 is the current standard.

•

Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync -

This protocol is frequently used with a large corporate email server system and provides access to email, contact, and calendar synchronization.
