For ease of reference the Getting to know your P910i chapter
gives a quick overview of the main functions of the phone,
shortcuts and general information.
Your P910i combines advanced business and entertainment
features in one intuitive device.
Its camera lets you take pictures and record video wherever you
are and use them in a wide range of applications. The pictures
can be used in the Picture Phone Book, where they can be used
to identify callers.
MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) allows you to send and
receive messages that include pictures, sound, text and voice
notes.
The P910i features advanced entertainment functionality that
offers high quality MP3 music and widescreen format video
clips and 3D games. New content can be downloaded quickly
and easily from Internet sites or transferred to the phone via
Bluetooth™ Wireless Technology, an infrared port or a cable.
Extra memory is available through a Memory Stick
also serves as a convenient way to exchange content and
applications such as Java™ games.
The P910i can be used as a corporate phone with Ericsson
MD110 and Business Phone exchanges.
™, which
The P910i also contains an organizer,
which includes contacts, a calendar,
notes and email, all of which can be
quickly and efficiently synchronized
with a PC. The email application
supports attachments. Viewers let you
read and edit documents in various
formats such as Microsoft® Word
and Excel®.
With Sony Ericsson Update Service
you can keep your phone updated
with the latest P910i software.
The complete P910i documentation
consists of the following parts:
• Quick Guide
•User Guide
• Instruction for removing the flip
• Help texts in the P910i
• Complementary information on the Internet, refer to
N 2 CDs, Sony Ericsson PC Suite and Content and Application
Note The design of the charger will differ depending on the
market.
Note If your package does not include all the listed items above,
please contact your retailer.
Note Before you can use your P910i you need to insert the SIM
card, and insert and charge the battery. Always detach the
charger before you insert or remove the SIM card.
When you register as a subscriber with
a network operator, you receive a SIM
(Subscriber Identity Module) card.
The SIM card contains a computer
chip that keeps track of your phone
number, the services included in your
subscription and your phone book
information, among other things.
A PIN (Personal Identity Number)
code is supplied with the SIM card
from your operator and must be
entered when switching on the P910i.
Open the battery cover by pressing
slightly on its upper part and slide it
down the P910i. Insert the SIM card as shown in the picture.
Some subscriptions are limited to call only predefined numbers,
so-called Fixed Dialling Numbers (FDN). To avoid problems
when travelling abroad, these predefined numbers should be
defined as international numbers starting with +, for example
+4613244500. In order to speed up calling while at home, the
same numbers can also be added in the national number format,
for example 013244500.

browsing to the required folder on the Memory Stick.
Memory Stick enabled devices which do not allow you to
browse and manage a folder structure may not be able to share
data directly with the applications in your P910i (for example,
Memory Stick enabled digital cameras). However, the File
Manager can access these files and move them into the correct
folders for use by the applications. When your P910i is
connected to your PC, you also have access to the P910i folder
structure as well as other Memory Stick content in

Entering text with the Flip open
There are two ways of entering text with the Flip open:
• Use the on-screen keyboard located at the bottom of the
screen.
• Write directly on the screen using the stylus.
On-screen keyboard
When you need to edit text, tap the keyboard icon in the status
Done
bar and then select characters. Tap
You can choose between different types of keyboard layouts
using the buttons at the bottom of the keyboard.
The current input field is shown to the left in the top bar of the
keyboard. Tap the arrows or rotate the Jog Dial to change the
input field. The keyboard top bar also contains a drop-down
menu with
1. Select the button representing the characters to input:
- Latin characters
- Numeric characters
2. Tap the keys on the keyboard; the text will be displayed
simultaneously in the text area.
More characters become available if you tap the shift and
caps keys.
Note The numeric keyboard is equipped with a button switching
between full width
and half width numerical characters
and punctuations.
To input Chinese characters
The P910i has two Chinese input methods: Stroke and Pinyin.
Both methods require that you create a character in two steps.
1. Select the button representing the input method: Stroke
or Pinyin (the Stroke keyboard is shown by default).
2. Tap one or more components of the character in the character
component area. The selected components are shown in the
element area, and a group of possible character candidates is
shown in the candidates area.
3. Tap the desired character in the candidates area. The
character appears in the text area and the associated
characters are shown in the candidates area.
The more you specify the character – the more input you make –
the fewer candidates will be left. If there are more candidates
than can be displayed at once, use the next candidate and the
previous candidate buttons to scroll.
Handwriting recognition translates stylus gestures into letters,
digits or other characters, and displays these characters as text.
Handwriting recognition is only active in places where text can
be input.
Latin letters and Chinese characters are input in different input
modes.
The text mode screen is divided into an upper and a lower part
divided by an arrow
at the right edge. The position of the
arrow will change according to the current input mode, in the
middle when in latin input mode, and above the middle when in
Chinese input mode.
The candidates bar at the bottom of the screen can be switched
on or off by tapping the button in the lower right-hand
corner.
To switch between Chinese and latin input mode, tap the button
at the left of the candidates bar, or write a stroke from down to
up with the stylus.
Mark text by putting the stylus on the text, wait a moment, and
drag the stylus over the text.
2. Write each letter in a
single stroke, in different
parts of the screen,
depending on the desired
letter:
– Write lowercase letters
below the arrow.
– Write uppercase letters
in line with the arrow.
– Write numbers above
the arrow.
3. If required, select a letter
in the candidates area.
Note Most letters can be written in alternate styles, see tables
below. The style itself does not matter when writing uppercase
or lowercase, as it is the position of the screen that decides
whether it will be uppercase or lowercase.
To write symbols and characters that are not shown in these
tables, please consult the Extended characters section of the
Handwriting recognition help topic in your phone.
Flip keyboard
Located on the inside of the flip,
the keyboard is similar in design
to that of a standard computer
keyboard.
With the flip open you use the
keyboard keys to enter text, for
example, when writing a text
message. When you press a key,
if there are additional characters
associated with that key, then these will be shown in a pre-edit
box in the title area:
If the same key is pressed again, the next character in the preedit box will be selected. You can also use the Jog Dial to run
through and select characters in the pre-edit box. (The pre-edit
box will be displayed on screen for as long as you have the key
depressed.) When the key is released, the highlighted character
will be selected after approximately 1 second.

P910i locks
Use the SIM card lock and the device lock to protect your SIM
card and your P910i from unauthorized use. Use the keylock to
prevent the keys from being accidentally pressed.
Note You can usually make an emergency call without
unlocking the P910i.
The SIM card lock protects your SIM card, not the P910i,
against unauthorized use. It is unlocked by the PIN and PUK
codes which you receive from your service provider.
You can choose to have to unlock the SIM card every time you
turn the P910i on, or to have the SIM card unlocked.
Your PIN (Personal Identification Number) code consists of
four to eight digits. If you activate the SIM card lock, the P910i
will ask for the PIN code every time you turn it on. You unlock
the SIM card by entering the PIN code.
To activate the SIM card lock
1. Select
2. Select a lock option.
3. Select
An error message informs you if a wrong PIN code has been
entered. Usually, the SIM card will be blocked after three wrong
attempts (the number of attempts is SIM-card dependent), and
you need to enter the PUK code to unblock it.
The PUK code consists of eight digits. When you have entered
the right PUK code you must enter a new PIN code. You have
ten attempts to enter the PUK code. If all ten attempts fail, the
SIM card will be disabled and you need to contact your network
operator.
Control panel

You cannot change the PUK code.
PIN2
Some functions on the SIM card can be protected by a
secondary code feature. Some SIM cards do not have a PIN2
lock.
The PIN2 lock cannot be deactivated. The code can be changed
by a user who knows the old code.
Device lock
The device lock protects your P910i and the data in it against
unauthorized use.
If the device lock is set to
P910i is not normally locked. However, if the SIM has been
changed, the P910i asks you to enter the code to unlock the
P910i before you can use it. This means that if someone steals
your P910i and puts another SIM card into it, they will not be
able to use it.
Note Your operator can block your SIM, if you report that your
phone has been stolen.
The device lock is not on when you buy your P910i. You can
change the device lock code to any four to eight digit personal
code.
You can choose to have the P910i locked every time you turn it
on, locked when the SIM card has been changed, or unlocked.
It is also possible to use the device lock in combination with the
screen saver. Just mark the checkbox
Display > Screen > Screen saver device lock
Control panel > Device >
to have the device lock
activated when the screen saver goes on.
Note When using the screen saving device lock, make sure you
have set the device lock to activate at Power on. Otherwise your
P910i will be unprotected after Power on, until the screen saver
goes on.
Note You will not be able to browse the contents of your P910i
from a PC, or synchronize items using the SyncStation, when the
P910i device lock is enabled and active.

busy signal, using the words recorded for ‘answer’ and
‘busy’.
• Incoming call acceptance limit – specify those who should be
able to reach you.
• Access to other applications while talking on the phone.
• Office handsfree (speakerphone) which starts when you open
the flip, making it easy to access applications such as
Calendar and Jotter while talking.
• Flight mode which enables the P910i to be used as a PDA in
situations where radio transmitters may not be used. The
GSM and Bluetooth transmitters (and receivers) are switched
off.
With the flip closed you can access most of the functions using
the Jog Dial and the keypad. More advanced tasks such as
handling a conference calls or using other applications during a
call are best handled with the flip open.

Streaming
Streaming is a data transfer method making multimedia
available in real-time. You can, for example, listen to audio and
watch video almost at the same time as it is sent.
The data in the file is divided into small packets that are sent in a
continuous flow, a stream.You can then begin viewing the file
from the beginning as the rest of the packets are sent. The short
delay at the start is to enable a small amount of data to be
buffered.
Your P910i can receive streaming multimedia.
Applications
Streaming applications can be classified into on-demand and
live applications.
Examples of on-demand applications are:
• Streaming of music.
• Streaming of news (video and audio).
• Streaming of movie trailers.
• Streaming and download of video.
• Live streaming of music or video (broadcast).
How to connect to a streaming service

1. Open Internet and browse to the site where the service is.
2. Select the item you want to play, for example a video.
The site server will download part of the video to the P910i
buffer memory. This will take a short while. When the buffer
memory is filled, the Video player will open the detail view,
described above, and play the video seamlessly.

Your P910i has mobile music in the form of a stereo music
player. With the music player you can listen to single music
tracks or entire folders with tracks. You can download tracks to
your P910i from a PC, the Internet or Memory Stick, and create
different folders with tracks. Your P910i supports a number of
different sound files, including the popular MP3 format. See
‘Technical data’ on page 204 for more information on supported
file types.
You can store sound files both internally and on the Memory
Stick. You can also copy them between the internal memory and
the Memory Stick. See ‘Folders’ on page 29.
When you receive a phone call while listening, the playback will
be paused. When you end the call, you must navigate back to the
Music application to restart playing.
Tip To listen to more music you can store music on several
Memory Sticks and carry them with you.

is dealt with one less Joker.
Rules
When the game starts, 35 cards are dealt from the deck into
7 piles of 5 cards. A further card is then dealt face up from the
layout card.
• Cards can only be played from the bottom of the piles.
• To play a pile card it must have a face value of one more or
one less than the layout card.

Handling multimedia messages
MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) messages can include
pictures, animations and sound, organized like a slide
presentation with time-based control of the playback.
Composing a multimedia message is like building a small slide
presentation. A typical page will consist of a picture, some text
and sound. Refer to Technical data, section ‘MMS’ on page 206
for supported file types that you can add.
You can take a picture with the CommuniCorder and send it as a
multimedia message using the
Send as
command from Pictures.
Multimedia messages can be sent to a mobile phone or an email
account.
How a recipient receives an MMS you send depends on your
MMS service and how the receiving phone complies to MMS
specifications. Phones can, for example, only receive pictures of
a maximum size, video and sound.
