Protecting Your Phone with
Encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: Google Accounts,
application data, music and other media, downloaded information, and
so on. If you do, you must enter a numeric PIN or password each time
you power on your phone.
WARNING! Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an
unencrypted phone is to perform a factory data reset, which erases all
your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen,
and may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult
your system administrator before turning it on. In many cases the PIN
or password you set for encryption is controlled by the system
administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
1. Set a lock screen PIN or password.
2. Charge the battery.
3. Plug in your phone.
4. Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you must not
interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your data.
When you're ready to turn on encryption:
24
5. Touch the Home Key > Menu Key > System settings >
Security > Encrypt phone.
6. Read the information about encryption carefully.
The Encrypt phone button is dimmed if your battery's not charged
or your phone's not plugged in.
If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch the
Back Key.
WARNING! If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose
data.
7. Touch Encrypt phone.
8. Enter your lock screen PIN or password and touch Next.
9. Touch Encrypt phone again.
The encryption process starts and displays its progress. Encryption can
take an hour or more, during which time your phone may restart
several times.
When encryption is complete, you're prompted to enter your PIN or
password.
Subsequently, you must enter your PIN or password each time you
power on your phone, to decrypt it.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems while using the phone, or if it performs
abnormally, you can refer to the chart below. If your particular
problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart,
contact the dealer where you purchased the phone.
Problem Possible causes Possible solution
Poor
reception
The network signal is too
weak at your current
location, for example, in a
basement or near a tall
building, because wireless
transmissions cannot
effectively reach it.
Move to a location where
the network signal can be
properly received.
The network is busy at the
current time (for example,
during peak times, there
may be too much network
traffic to handle additional
calls).
Avoid using the phone at
such times, or try again
after waiting a short time.
139
You are too far away from
a base station for your
service provider.
You can request a service
area map from your
service provider.
Echo or noise Poor network trunk quality
on the part of your service
provider.
End the call and dial
again. You may be
switched to a
better-quality network
trunk or phone line.
Poor local telephone line
quality.
End the call and dial
again. You may be
switched to a
better-quality network
trunk or phone line.
Unable to
select certain
features

make sure all connections
have been properly made.
Shortened
standby time
The standby time is related
to your service provider
system configuration. The
same phone used with
different service providers’
systems will not provide
exactly the same length of
standby time.
If you are located in an
area where signaling is
weak, temporarily power
off the phone.
The battery is depleted. In
high-temperature
environments, battery life
will be shortened.
Use a new battery.

141
If you are not able to
connect to the network, the
phone will continue to
send out signals as it
attempts to locate a base
station. Doing so
consumes battery power
and will consequently
shorten standby time.

Radio Frequency Interference
General Statement on Interference
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to
personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use
the phone on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in
a breast pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience
interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and
the distance from the interference source, increasing the separation
between them may reduce the interference. You may also consult
your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
151
Medical Devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to
determine if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation
of your medical device.
Hospitals
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals,
clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent
possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so
by airport or airline staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the
aircraft. If your device offers a ‘flight mode’, this must be enabled prior
to boarding an aircraft.
Interference in Cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic
equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile
phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external
antenna is included in the installation.
152
Explosive Environments
Petrol Stations and Explosive Atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted
signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio
equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas,
below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities,
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust,

Blasting Caps and Areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting
area or in areas posted power off “two-way radios” or “electronic
devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure
to radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government:
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
![](/img.php?id=1866996&img=bg27.png)
153
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use
only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer
you are to a wireless base station, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC
when tested for use at the ear is 0.737 W/kg and when worn on the
body, as described in this user guide, is 1.11 W/kg (Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
enhancements and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with
the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display
Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on
FCC ID: Q78- V970T
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the
FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains
no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.0cm from the
body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with
154
FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do no t use a body-worn
accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the
handset a minimum of 1.0 cm from your body when the phone is
switched on.
FCC Compliance
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
155
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
regulations for Mobile phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones
compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Although analog
wireless phones do not usually cause interference with hearing aids or
cochlear implants, digital wireless phones sometimes do because of
electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone's antenna, backlight, or
other components. Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations
(ANSI C63.19- 2007). While some wireless phones are used near some
hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect
a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more
immune than others to this interference noise and phones also vary in
the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone
industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones to assist
hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible with
their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are
rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box. The
ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's
hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone
successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best
way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
156
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some
of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some
newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been
tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your
hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any
interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of
this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have
questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service
provider or phone retailer.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that
are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or
“Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/ higher of
the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in
them.)
Your phone meets the M3/T3 level rating.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer
or hearing health professional may help you find this rating. For more
