Where sent information is saved
When you send information from your phone using Bluetooth, the location where it’s
saved depends on the type of information and the receiving device.
If you send a calendar event or contact, it is normally added directly to the
corresponding app on the receiving device. For example, if you send a calendar event
to a compatible phone, the event is shown in that phone’s calendar app.
If you send another file type to a Windows computer, it is normally saved in the
Bluetooth Exchange folder within your personal document folders.
On Windows XP, the path may be:
C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\Bluetooth
Exchange
On Windows Vista, the path may be:
C:\Users\[your username]\Documents
On Windows 7, the path may be:
C:\Users\[your username]\My Documents\Bluetooth Exchange Folder
If you send a file to another device, the saved location may depend on the file type.
For example, if you send an image file to another mobile phone, it may be saved in a
folder named “Images.”
Receiving information using Bluetooth
Your phone is capable of receiving a wide variety of file types with Bluetooth,
including photos, music tracks, and documents such as PDFs.
The first time you transfer information between your phone and another device, you
need to enter or confirm a security passcode. After that, your phone and the other
device are paired, and you will not need to exchange passcodes to transfer information

Updating the phone software
From time to time, software updates for your phone may be available. Your phone can
check and then notify you if there’s a new update. You can then download and install
the software update using your phone’s Wi-Fi or data connection.
Checking and downloading phone software updates may incur additional data transfer fees
from your mobile operator.
Make sure your phone has a microSD card inserted. The update will be downloaded to the
microSD card.
Depending on the type of update, the update may erase all your personal data and
customized settings, and also remove any applications you’ve installed. Make sure that
you’ve backed up the information and files you want to keep.
When there is an update available, the Install system software update dialog
box will appear onscreen. Select Install now and then tap OK.
If you’re in the middle of a call and there’s an update available, you’ll receive
an update notification. After you end the call, slide open the Notifications
panel (see “Opening the Notifications panel” in the Getting started chapter).
Then tap the update notification to download and install the software update.
Wait for the update process to finish. When the update is finished, the phone will
automatically reset.

Restarting or factory resetting your phone

If your phone is running slower than normal, an application is not performing properly,
or your phone becomes unresponsive, try restarting your phone and see if that helps
solve the problem.
If the display is off, press the POWER button to turn it back on.
Unlock your phone if the Lock screen is displayed. See “Unlocking the screen” in
the Getting started chapter.
Press and hold the POWER button, and then tap Restart.
When asked to confirm, tap Restart.
If you can’t restart the phone following the above steps, remove the battery, wait for a
few seconds, reinsert the battery, and then turn the phone on.
Performing a factory reset (hard reset)
If you’re passing your phone on to someone else or your phone has a persistent
problem that cannot be solved, you can do a factory reset (also called a hard reset).
This returns your phone to the state it was in before the first time you turned it on.
Factory reset will not erase the data and files that are on the storage card.
Factory reset is not a step to be taken lightly. It’ll permanently delete all your data
and customized settings, and will remove any applications you’ve downloaded and
installed. Be sure to back up any data and files you want to keep before you do a
factory reset.
Performing a factory reset via settings
From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings.
Tap SD & phone storage > Factory data reset.
On the Factory data reset screen, tap Reset phone, and then tap Erase
everything.

If you can’t turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a
factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.
With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then
briefly press the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release
the VOLUME DOWN button.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER
button.
