ActiveSync on your PC, then create a synchronization pairing
between your device and the PC. You can install ActiveSync from
the Getting Started disc that comes with your LG VS910.
Once you have installed ActiveSync and set up a synchronization
relationship, ActiveSync on the PC recognizes your device when you
connect it, and automatically transfers the synchronization settings
you specified on your device.
You may be able to synchronize your device with Exchange Server
through your companyor wireless service provider. If you plan to do
so, obtain e-mail address, Exchange Server address, user name,
password, and domain name from your administrator before starting

Connecting to Bluetooth Devices
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology that
devices can use to exchange information over a distance of about
30 feet. The most common Bluetooth devices are headphones for
making calls or listening to music, hands-free kits for cars, and other
portable devices, including laptops and cell phones.
There are several Bluetooth profiles that define the features and
communications standards for Bluetooth devices.
To connect to a Bluetooth device, you must turn on your phone's

Gmail
Gmail is Different
Gmail is web-based:Your messages are stored on-line, on
GoogleTM servers; but you can read, write, and organize messages
by using the Gmail application on your phone, or by using a web
browser on a computer. Because your mail is stored on Google
servers, you can search your entire message history, backed by
the speed and power of Google search.
Actions that you take in one place are reflected everywhere. For
example, if you read a message in Gmail on your phone, it will be
marked as read in a web browser. And a message that you send
using a browser, or even a draft of a message, is visible in Gmail
on the phone.
Gmail is conversation-based:Each message and all replies to it
are grouped in your Inboxas a single conversation. In other email
applications, replies to messages are spread across your Inbox,
typically by date received, so a message and the replies to it are
separated by other messages. Gmail makes it easy to follow the
thread of a conversation.
Gmail is organized by labels, not by folders:By tagging
messages with labels, you can organizeyour conversations in
many different ways. Whereas in other email applications, each
message can only be located in one folder. For example, with
Gmail you can label a conversation with your mother about your
brother's birthdaypresent with both
“
Mom
”
and
“
Dave.
”
Later, you
can look for all the messages containing either label. Using
folders, you'd haveto store the message in the
“
Mom
”
folder or
the
“
Dave
”
folder, not both.
Gmail for the phone is optimized for mobile use: Some features
are only accessible on your computer browser. The best place to
organize and learn about Gmail is the web. For example, you can't
use the Gmail application on the phone to create the labels and
Communication
filters that you use to organize your messages, but you can label a
message. Gmail on the web offers complete information about the
service, so it's the best place to learn about all of the features of
Gmail.
Gmail is for Gmail: Of course you can use Gmail to send email to
any email address, and anyone can send email to you at your
Gmail address. But if you want to read messages from another
email service provider (using your AOL, Yahoo!, or other email
account), you must use the Email application.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility
Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure
reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with
hearing disabilities.
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 industryhas developed a rating system for
wireless phones, to assist hearing device users to find phones that
may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have
been rated. Phones that are rated havethe rating on their boxor 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. M4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings.
Hearing devices mayalso be rated. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this
rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively
immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone
Safety
rating values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered
acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for best use.
In the example to the left, if a hearing aid meets
the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets
the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values
equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user
with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid
with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context
is defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T
mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T
marks are recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications
Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in
Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HACrating and measurement
procedure are described in the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
When you're talking on a cell phone, it's recommended that you
turn the BT (Bluetooth) mode off for HAC.
According to HACpolicy(KDB 285076), we state this handset has
not been rated for hearing aid compatibility with respect to the WiFi
capability.
