The retractable antenna on your i580 phone is
designed to be extended during calls and is
essential to attain the hearing aid compatibility
rating on applicable models.
To extend the antenna, pull gently on the tip until
the antenna is fully extended and clicks into

Memory Card
Your i870 phone comes with a memory card,
memory card adaptor, and memory card reader*.
Ensuring Files on the Memory
Card Are Compatible With
Your Phone
A memory card is a removable flash memory card
that you can use to store pictures, videos, and
audio files. The memory card can be inserted in
your phone or connected to your computer using
the memory card reader.
When your memory card is connected to your
computer, your computer lets you save files to your
memory card in ways that may not allow you to
access these files when the memory card is in your
i580 phone.
When the memory card is in your phone, many
types of pictures, videos, and audio files stored on
the memory card can be viewed or played using
your phone's media center. MP3 audio files stored
on the memory card can be played using your
phone's audio player.
To ensure the files on your memory card are
compatible with your i580 phone, use the folder
structure, filename rules, and formats described in
the following sections.
A memory card reader connects to your
computer’s USB port and lets you access the
memory card from your computer. This lets you
save files from your computer to your memory card
or save files from your memory card to your
computer.
The first time you insert the memory card into your
phone, three folders are created: Audio, Images,
and Video. In order to access files stored on the
memory card, you must store the given file in its
corresponding format folder: audio files to the
Audio folder, pictures to the Images folder, and
videos to the Video folder.
The memory card adaptor makes the memory card
compatible with the memory card reader.
* Depending on your service provider, the memory card, memory
card adaptor, and memory card reader may not be include with
your phone. Your i580 phone can be used with a Transflash or
MicroSD memory card.
Folder Structure
Because your phone creates these folders the first
time the memory card is inserted, you should insert
the memory card into your phone at least once
before using it with your computer.
