User’s Guide
Please read this manual before operating your
phone, and keep it for future reference.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov
FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States
with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard
for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC
regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this
phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in
violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for
replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone
kept 1.8 cm. from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 1.8
cm. separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone, including
the antenna, whether extended or retracted. The use of third-party belt-clips, holsters
and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The
use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC
RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
WARNING! Read this information before using your phone

For example, to enter the word “ hello,” you can spell out the word by
pressing only five keys, 4-3-5-5-6. T9 Text Input knows the most
commonly used sequence for that numeric sequence is “hello” .
If two or more words share the same numeric sequence, T9 software
provides the most commonly used word, with the ability to scroll to the
next most commonly used word by pressing the [0 Next] key.
Press the [0 Next] key repeatedly to display all of the available words that T9
knows. When the word you want displays, continue to enter text in the
same way, or change to another text or character entry mode.
Note: To type words not found in the T9 mode, change the text input mode to
ABC (Alpha) mode. Words typed in this mode are automatically added to the T9
dictionary so you can type them using the T9 English mode the next time. You
can include numbers between letters without exiting the T9 input mode by
simply pressing and holding the desired numeric key.

Getting Started
Getting service
You must contact your service provider to obtain service for your Samsung N150
phone. It is suggested that you read this user guide to fully understand
the features that your phone supports.
Turning your phone on
When you are ready to turn your phone on, fully extend the antenna for
the clearest reception. Open the phone’s flip cover and select
the [END] key and hold down for more than one second to turn the
phone on:
Note: Your phone has a built-in antenna. As with any other radio-transmitting
device, do not touch the antenna as it affects call quality and can cause the
phone to operate at a higher power level than is necessary.
The service light in the top left of the phone flashes, and an alert
sounds. The phone begins searching for a network signal. When a
signal is found, the date, time and day display, and the phone enters
standby mode. You can now send and receive calls. The standby mode
screen is shown below:
. Signal strength icon .
. Battery strength icon
. Time and date.
. Roam
. Message
. Digital Mode
. Vibrate
Note: If the phone is out-of-service the icon displays. If this happens
you cannot place or receive calls. You can try later when service becomes
available. For further information see “ The top line of the display screen” on
page 36
Answering a call
When you receive a call, the phone will ring and a phone icon is
displayed on the screen. If the caller can be identified, the caller’s
phone number (or name if pre-stored in your Phone Book) is
displayed. If the caller cannot be identified, only the phone icon and “Number Unavailable” displays.
There are several ways to answer an incoming call (See Answer Mode on page 129?):
.Open the flip.
.Press the [SEND] key.
.Press any key.
You can also easily set your phone to automatically answer a call after 5 rings,
3 rings, or 1 ring by setting the Auto Answer feature (See page 129?). This can
be useful when driving around in a hands-free environment.
Turning your phone off
To turn your phone off, press and hold the [END] key for more than 2
seconds. Notice that when the phone is turned off, both the display
screen and backlight are off.
Note: If your phone is on and the [END] key is selected for less than one
second, the phone will not turn off. This feature stops your phone from being
turned off accidentally.

cannot make an outgoing call until the phone is unlocked. To unlock
the phone, press [MENU], navigation key, or [OK/Message] key and enter the
lock code. The phone will return to standby mode.
Power save mode
Your phone comes with a Power Save feature that automatically

‘In-Use Options’.
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 22
The top line of the display screen
Display indicators (or icons) appear across the top of your phone’s
display screen. The signal strength and battery strength icons are
always displayed, but the other icons appear based your phone’s
operating mode.
Signal strength: This icon always appears when your phone is on,
and shows your current signal strength. The more lines displayed, the
better the signal strength. Four lines indicate maximum strength.
Service indicator: This icon indicates a call is in progress. If there is
trouble with signal strength, this indicator will have a diagonal line
through it.
No service indicator: This icon indicates your phone cannot find a
signal because you are outside a service area. When displayed, you
cannot send or receive calls. Wait for a better signal or move into an
open area to regain service.
Note: The no service indicator always displays when you turn on your phone.
When service is located, the indicator disappears.
Roaming: This icon displays when the phone is outside your
carrier’s area and receiving service from another carrier’s network.
If you are:
. In your home service area, this indicator does not display.
. In a preferred analog or digital roaming area (where your service
provider has a roaming agreement in place), this indicator is on, but
not flashing.
. In an analog or digital area that is not covered by your phone’s
service provider, this indicator is on.
New Message: This icon appears when a new voice, text or page
message, or net alert is received.
Digital mode: This icon indicates your phone is operating in digital
mode. Your phone has some features that work only in a digital
service area; these services include the Web Browser and certain
other message(s) services. If this icon is not displayed, your phone is operating in
analog mode.
Vibrating mode: This icon indicates that an incoming call will make
the phone vibrate rather than ring. This feature is used for situations
where your normal ringer may disturb others, or for “ loud” situations
where a ringer cannot be heard.
Battery strength: This icon is displayed when your phone is active.
It displays your battery’s current charge level. The more bars, the
greater the charge. When the battery becomes very low, an empty
battery icon displays and the phone flashes an alert; this indicates that
your phone is about to turn itself off.
Using the battery
Note: Your phone comes packaged with a partially charged, rechargeable
standard Li-ion battery. The phone can be used while the battery is charging,
but must be fully charged the first time you use your phone otherwise the
battery could be damaged.
Installing the battery
The battery attaches to the phone very easily:
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 23
1. Insert the contact end on the bottom of the battery into the slots on the
bottom of the phone.
2. Slide the battery up until you hear it click into place.
Removing the battery
To remove the battery from your phone:
1. Turn the phone off (by pressing and holding [END] until the closing
animation sequence begins.)
2. Push the catch button up on the top of the battery on the back side of the
phone. (see illustration). The battery will easily slide out from the phone.
Charging the battery
Note: A standard battery is provided with your phone. The battery must be fully
charged before using your phone for the first time. The phone can be used
while the battery is charging.
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Only use
Samsung approved chargers and batteries. These chargers are
designed to maximize battery life. Using other chargers voids your
warranty and may cause damage.
When the phone has finished charging it can be disconnected from the charger.
Low battery indicator
You can tell whether or not your battery needs to be recharged by
checking the indicator (it’s located in the upper-right corner of
the display). The presence of all three bars indicates a full charge, two
bars indicates a medium charge, and one bar indicates a minimum
charge. No bars (the battery icon is empty) indicates the battery no
longer has any charge and must be recharged.
The empty battery icon
Two to three minutes before the battery charge level gets too low to
operate the phone, the battery sensor will let you know by blinking an
empty battery icon ( ), and sounding a tone. If you continue to
operate the phone without charging the battery, the phone will turn off
automatically. If this happens, your wireless call will be ended. But if
you plug into a charging device, you can continue your call. Be sure to
monitor the battery strength icon and make sure your battery is
sufficiently charged.
Charging with the travel adapter
The travel adapter allows you to charge your phone’s battery from any
standard 110 V AC wall outlet. Also, using the travel adapter allows you to
make a phone call while the battery is charging. The travel adapter will
fully charge an “ empty” standard battery in about three hours, and an
“ empty” extended battery in about four hours.
Follow these steps:
1. With the battery connected to the phone, connect the travel adapter to
the accessory connector on the bottom of the phone.
2. Connect the charger to a standard 110 V AC wall outlet. The battery begins charging.
3. The LED on the travel adapter indicates the status of the battery charge.
. Red indicates that the battery is charging.
. Green indicates that the battery is fully charged.
. Flashing Red indicates that the battery is operating at a temperature that is
too high or too low, or that the charger is not plugged in correctly.
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 24
Please check the adapter and battery.
4. The travel adapter continues charging the battery even when you are
making outgoing calls.
5. For the fastest charging time, turn the phone off while the battery is charging.
Note: The battery charges faster when the phone is off.
Caring for the battery

Pause dialing
When you call automated systems, you are some times required to
enter a password or account number. Instead of manually entering the
numbers each time, the numbers can be stored in your Phone Book
separated by special characters called pauses.
There are two kinds of pauses that can be entered on your phone:
Ÿ Hard pause (P pause) - A hard pause stops the dialing sequence until [SEND] is pressed.
Ÿ Two second pause (T pause) - A two second pause stops the dialing sequence for
two seconds and then automatically sends the remaining digits.
Your phone has two pause dialing methods: pause dialing from the
Phone Book (see “Pause dialing from a stored phone book entry” on
page 57), and manual pause dialing (see “ Manual pause dialing” on page 58).
Note: Multiple two second pauses can be entered to extend the length of a
pause. For example, two consecutive two second pauses cause a total pause
time of four seconds. However, keep in mind that pauses count as digits
towards the 32 digit dialing maximum.
Storing pauses in a phone book entry
To store a number in your Phone Book that contains pauses:
1. Enter the phone number you want to store.
2. Press [MENU] to display options. Press the navigation key to scroll and press
[OK/Message] to enter the desired pause.
Ÿ Select ‘P pause’ to insert a Hard Pause. The letter “P” displays within the
number, meaning that a hard pause will occur at that point in the dialing sequence.
Enter the digits that need to follow the pause (such as your account number).
Ÿ Select ‘T pause’ to insert a two second pause. The letter “T” displays within the
number, meaning that a “ Timed” pause will occur at that point in the
dialing sequence. Enter the digits that need to follow the pause (such as your account number).
3. Store the number in your Phone Book as you normally would by pressing
[OK/Message] and following the display prompts.
Pause dialing from a stored phone book entry
Pause dialing from the Phone Book:
1. If you stored the number using a two second pause(s), simply dial the
number from the Phone Book.
2. If you stored the number using a hard pause(s), simply dial the number
from the Phone Book and wait for the appropriate prompt from the
number you are calling (credit card number, bank account number,
etc.). When prompted, press [SEND] to send the number that
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 34
follows your hard pause. “SENDING DTMF” flashes on the screen (the
transmitted tones are audible).
Manual pause dialing
To perform manual pause dialing without first storing the number in
the Phone Book, enter pauses manually using the Digit Entry menu
during the dialing process.
To manually dial a number using a pause(s):
1. Enter the phone number of the service you want to call. For example,
your bank’s automated phone number might be an 800 number.
2. Press [MENU] to display digit dialing options.
− Scroll and press [OK/Message] for a Hard Pause (P pause). The screen displays a “ P”
indicating a hard pause. Enter the number to be sent after the pause by
pressing the digit keys, and then press [SEND]. After connecting, press [SEND]
again to transmit the additional number following the Hard Pause “P”.
− Scroll and press [OK/Message] for a 2 second Pause (T pause). The screen displays a “ T”
indicating a timed pause. The screen prompts for the number to be
sent after the pause. Enter the number to be sent after the pause by

number that follows the pause 2 seconds after connection.

Web/MiniBrowser
Your phone comes equipped with wireless Internet access by using the
MiniBrowser. The MiniBrowser allows you to access up-to-the-minute
information through your phone. View specially designed versions of
popular Internet sites which may include news, sports, weather, stock
quotes, etc. Browsing the web through your phone is unlike using your
personal computer since site providers have selected only the critical aspects of
the site to present to wireless phone users and have removed most graphics.
Each time you launch the MiniBrowser, the phone connects to the
Internet and the service indicator icon ( ) displays. Any time the
service indicator icon is visible on the display, you are connected to the
Internet and are invoiced accordingly. Rates and pricing vary
according to your service option.
The MiniBrowser disconnects an Internet connection after a certain
period of inactivity, however some information from your session
remains stored in the phone, and (if you leave your phone turned on)
you can access this information without reconnecting to the Internet. If
you are viewing this stored information, and you select a link to a site
that was not accessed in your last session, then you will be
automatically re-connected to the Internet. For this reason, you may
find that you are billed for several network connections within a single
session. This is normal and is designed to minimize your bill.
Note: The phone must be in a digital network to use the MiniBrowser.
When you are in a digital network, the icon is displayed.
Launching the MiniBrowser
Note: The first time you use the MiniBrowser, you will be required to go
through a security setup process that takes approximately three to five minutes.
Please follow the on-screen prompts to complete the security setup process.
This initial setup process occurs only the first time you access the service.
Note: When the security key is initially sent to the carrier, it creates a unique
value. If the phone is reset for any reason, you must contact the carrier to reset
the security key. The old key is no longer valid and will not allow the
MiniBrowser to operate correctly.
To launch the MiniBrowser:
1. From the standby mode, press the navigation key right, or press [MENU] [3 DEF].
2. Press [1 .-’] to launch the MiniBrowser.
Note: A reminder of the charge may appear (depending on your prompt
setting - see “ The MiniBrowser start and end prompts” on page 73). To
dismiss the prompt, simply choose yes or no. If no prompt is displayed, you
are immediately connected to the Internet.
3. Once connected, the Home page (or the last page visited) will be
displayed. To access the Home menu page from any other menu in the
MiniBrowser, press and hold [MENU].
An example of a Home Page is shown below:

Usage guidelines:
all about performance and safety
Understanding signal strength
The quality of each call you make or receive, is dependent upon the
signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the current
signal strength by displaying a icon. The more bars displayed, the
stronger the signal. The signal strength indicator ( ) displays in
the upper left corner of your display screen. The voice quality of your
phone is always clearest when the antenna is fully raised. If you’re
inside a building, reception may be better near a window.
Understanding the power save mode
If you are trying to use your phone in an area where the signal is too
weak, the Power Save feature automatically activates to conserve
battery power when you have been unable to pick up a signal for 15
minutes. If your phone is on, it periodically rechecks service
availability. To manually check, press any key. A message is displayed
on the screen any time Power Save has been activated. When a signal is
found, your phone returns to standby mode.
Understanding how your phone operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is
turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals.
When your phone is in use, the system handling your call controls the
power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in
digital mode.
Specifications are subject to change
The information contained in this manual is believed to be correct at
the time of printing, however, Samsung reserves the right to change or
modify any of the specifications without notice or obligation to update
existing units.
FCC RF Exposure information
The design of your Samsung Phone complies with updated NCRP
standards described below.
In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in
updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human
exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and
physicians from universities, government health agencies and
industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the
available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In
August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the
existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the
phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 72
contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.
The design of the phone complies with these updated standards. Of
course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated
standard, you can choose to control the duration of your calls and
operate your phone in the most power-efficient manner.
.You should not touch the antenna unnecessarily when using the phone.
.Touching the antenna may affect the call quality and may cause the unit to
operate at higher power than it would need otherwise.
.When using the handset, hold the handset just as you would hold any
other telephone, and keep the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.
.Use of hands-free devices will further limit RF exposure.
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT ONLY GENUINE SAMSUNG AUTHORIZED
ACCESSORIES BE UTILIZED WITH YOUR SAMSUNG PHONE. THIS IS BECAUSE
ACCESSORIES MIGHT APPEAR TO BE A PERFECT MATCH, AND LABELED
SUITABLE FOR YOUR SAMSUNG PHONE, BUT THEY CAN CHARGE AT
DIFFERENT CURRENT RATES. THE CURRENT PROVIDED THROUGH THE
ACCESSORY MAY NOT MATCH THE CURRENT THAT IS REQUIRED BY YOUR
SAMSUNG PHONE AND THE RESULT OF USING AN UNAUTHORIZED ACCESSORY
MAY BE A BATTERY OR PHONE MELT DOWN. YOUR WARRANTY OF COURSE,
WOULD BE NULL AND VOID.
Body-worn operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use a Samsung supplied or approved carrying
case, holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn
accessory, ensure the antenna is at least one inch (2.5
centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Samsung
approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Vehicle mounted external antenna (if available)
A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20 cm) must be
maintained between a person and the vehicle mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.
Note: For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov..154
How to order accessories
Most Samsung accessories can be purchased by visiting our web site at
www.samsungtelecom.com.
The accessories available for this phone include:
.Travel charger (TCH020JBE).
.Desktop charger (DCH039ADE).
.Cigarette lighter adapter (CLC020).
.Standard (BST0399DE), and Extended-life batteries (BEX039DDE).
.Hands-free car kit (HSH020SBE).
.Data cable (DC020).
.Leather case (LC-N150).
.Holster (HC070).
The use of any other power accessory will invalidate any approval or
warranty applying to the phone, and may be dangerous.
When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull
the connector, not the cord.

Operating a motor vehicle
IMPORTANT NOTICE! PLEASE READ!
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE.
You should never use a hand-held phone while operating a motor
vehicle. It may divert your attention away from driving and may be
illegal in some cities, states, and jurisdictions. You should park your
vehicle legally before using your hand-held phone. Remember, safety
comes first.
.Your hand-held phone should be stored in a secure place so that, in the
event of a sudden stop or collision with another vehicle, the phone will
not damage property or injure anyone. For example, airbags inflate very
quickly and with great force. Serious injury may result if you have placed
your phone in the area of deployment of an air bag and the bag inflates.
Park your vehicle legally before using your hand-held phone.
.Dial to report serious emergencies. There
are no charges from your carrier.
.Use your phone to help others in emergencies.
.Call roadside assistance or a special non-wireless number when necessary.
Following safety guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special
regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is
forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger. All wireless
phones may be subject to radio interference, which may affect their
performance.
Turning off your phone in dangerous areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your phone when
in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating that two-way
radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control
RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn off your phone when you’re in any area that has a potentially
explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone or its accessories
could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include:
.Fueling areas such as gas stations
.Below deck on boats
.Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities
.Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or
metal powders
.Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine
Restricting children’s access to your phone
Your Samsung phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to
play with it because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the
phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.
Turning off your phone before flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible
interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 74
a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To
prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your
phone while the plane is in the air.
Emergency calls
IMPORTANT NOTICE! PLEASE READ!
Because of various transmission methods, network parameters, and
user settings used to complete a call from your wireless phone, a
connection cannot always be guaranteed.
Therefore, emergency calling may not be available on all wireless
networks at all times.
DO NOT depend on this phone as a primary method of dialing 911 or
any other essential or emergency communications.
Remember to always turn your phone on and check for adequate
signal strength before placing a call.
Maintaining your phone’s peak performance
To operate your phone properly — that is, to maintain safe and
satisfactory service — you should follow these rules:
.For best reception, extend the antenna fully.
.Hold the phone with the antenna up and over your shoulder.
.Do not hold, bend, or twist the phone antenna at any time.
.Close the phone antenna when not on a call.
.Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna.
.Speak directly into the microphone.
.Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid. If your
phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.
.Only Samsung authorized personnel should service your phone and
accessories.
Using your phone near other electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency
(RF) signals. However, some electronic equipment may not be
shielded, or adequately shielded, from RF signals. RF signals from
wireless telephones may affect such equipment.
RF signals from your phone may affect systems in your vehicle,
including improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles (such as
electronic ignition systems, electronic speed control systems,
electronic anti-skid or anti-lock braking systems, and air bag systems).
You should check with the manufacturer of your vehicle (and the
manufacturers of any equipment added to your vehicle) to determine
whether its systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals
and to determine appropriate safety precautions.
You must consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices
(such as pacemakers and hearing aids) to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF signals and the appropriate safety
precautions to take with such devices. For example, safety instructions
for pacemakers may include minimum distances that the phone should
be kept from the pacemaker, areas where the phone should not be
kept (for example, the breast pocket), use of the ear opposite the
pacemaker, and other such safety instructions. The advice from the
manufacturers may change from time to time. If at any time you
suspect any such interference, turn off your phone immediately.
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 75
Turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission
before using the phone near medical equipment.
Storing your phone
You must not store or carry your phone, its parts, or accessories in the
same compartment or other area where there flammable liquids,
gases, or explosive or flammable materials.
Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in
this document could void your warranty for this equipment and void
your authority to operate this equipment.
Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of any
unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate the
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of hardware
and can be broken. Use common-sense guidelines to avoid dropping,
hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
Information to user

will display. In some service areas, an operator may come on the line
asking you how you would like to pay for the call.
To make all of the features available to you, your phone is designed by
SCH-N150 User Guide Draft Rev 1.2 3/16/01 76
Samsung and your service provider to allow your service provider to
send (at any time) a variety or information and messages to your
phone. You may think of this as an over-the-air service to your phone.
During an over-the-air programming session, your phone may display
the following messages:
. “ Programming in progress …” - this message means the phone is
downloading data. Do not turn your phone off while this is
occurring. See the CAUTION below.
. “ Programming successful!” – If this message displays after a series of other messages, then it means
that your phone
has been successfully reprogrammed. You can now continue to use your phone as you normally do.
. “ Programming unsuccessful!” - if this message appears contact your
service provider.
CAUTION: If you turn off your phone during a programming session, your
phone (or some features) may not work properly in the network. If
this happens don’t worry, contact your service provider for help in
correcting the problem.
