11 Synchronizing Data
Some applications on your phone give you access to the same personal data that you
can add, view, and edit on the Internet from your computer. If you add, change, or
delete your data in any of these applications on the Internet, the updated data is also
synchronized to your phone.
This process is called over-the-air data synchronization. In this process, your phone
synchronizes data in the background, which does not affect your use of the phone.
When your phone is synchronizing data, is displayed in the notification bar.
11.1 Managing Your Accounts
You can synchronize contacts, emails, and other data on your phone between
multiple Google accounts or other types of accounts, depending on the applications
installed on your phone.
For example, you can start by adding your personal Google account, so that your
personal contacts, emails, and calendar are always available. Then you can add a
work account, so that your work contacts and emails are handy. If you like, you can
add multiple Google accounts or other types of accounts.
11.1.1 Adding an Account
When you add an account, the
Contacts
application compares contacts from the
newly added account with those from the existing accounts on your phone and
attempts to merge duplicate data into a single entry in
Contacts
.
To add a contact:
1. On the Home screen, touch
5
>
Settings
>
Accounts & sync
.
The current synchronization settings and a list of your current accounts are
displayed.
In some cases, you may need to obtain account details from your service
54
provider. For example, you may need to know the account's domain or server
address.
2. Touch
Add account
.
3. Touch the type of account your want to add.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions to enter the required and optional information
about the account.
Most accounts require a user name and a password, but the details depend on the
type of account and the settings of the service to which you are connecting.
5. Configure the account.
Depending on the account type, your phone may ask you to set the type of data
you want to synchronize to your phone, to name the account, or to provide other
details.
When the configuration is complete, the account is added to the list on the
Accounts & sync settings
screen.
11.1.2 Removing an Account
You can remove an account and delete all the information associated with it from your
phone, including emails, contacts, settings, and the like. You cannot remove some
accounts, such as the first account you log in to on the phone. If you remove an
account, all your personal data associated with it is deleted from your phone.
You can remove a Gmail account only by resetting your phone to the factory
settings.
To remove an account:
1. On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen, touch the account you want to delete.
2. Touch
Remove account
.
3. Touch
0
to confirm that the account is deleted.
11.2 Customizing the Account
Synchronization Settings
You can configure background data synchronization for all the applications on your
phone. You can also configure the type of data you want to synchronize for each
account.
55
For some accounts, synchronization is two-directional. Data changes on your phone
are synchronized to the account servers, and vice versa. Some accounts only support
one-way synchronization. Data synchronized to your phone is read-only.
11.2.1 Configuring General Synchronization Settings
On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen:
• Select or clear the
Background data
check box to allow or forbid applications and
services on your phone to send and receive data when they are running in the
background.
If you clear the
Background data
check box,
Gmail
does not receive new emails
and
Calendar
does not synchronize events.
• Select or clear the
Auto-sync
check box to allow or forbid automatic data
synchronization between your phone and the account servers.
For example, if you select the
Auto-sync
check box, changes you make in
Contacts
on your phone are automatically synchronized to the account servers.
11.2.2 Changing an Account's Synchronization Settings
1. On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen, touch the account for which you want
to change the synchronization settings.
The
Data & synchronization
screen is displayed, listing the types of data you can

Certification Information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended by
international guidelines, the device is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to
radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific
organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) and include safety measures designed to ensure safety for all users,
regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of
radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device. The SAR value
is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the
actual SAR level of the device when being operated can be well below the value. This
is because the device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the
network.
The SAR limit adopted by USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the FCC and IC for this
device type when tested for use at the ear is 1.33 W/kg, and when properly worn on
the body is 1.36 W/kg.

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).
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 find 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.
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.
71
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.) Hearing devices may also be measured.
Your phone meets the M4/T4 level rating. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your
hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this
rating. 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.
