How Does It Work?Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:• Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with. • Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person you're calling hears only your voice, without disturbing background noise.• Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to speak louder to overcome surrounding noise. The noise suppression technology is built-in and already enabled in your new mobile phone.  So it's ready to provide unsurpassed voice clarity with every call.

11Charging the BatteryYour phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A wall charger, which is used for charging the battery, is included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.Before using your phone for the first time, you must fully charge the battery. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.Note: Verify that the battery is installed prior to connecting the wall charger. If both the wall charger is connected and the battery is not installed, the handset will power cycle continuously and prevent proper operation. Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can cause the phone to become damaged.Important!: It is recommended you fully charge the battery before using your device for the first time.1. Connect the USB cable to the charging head.2. Locate the Charger/Accessory jack (1).3. Insert the USB cable into the device’s Charger/Accessory jack (2).4. Plug the charging head into a standard AC power outlet. The device turns on with the screen locked and indicates both its charge state and percent of charge.Warning!: While the device is charging, if the touch screen does not function due to an unstable power supply unplug the USB power adapter from the power outlet or unplug the USB cable from the device.CorrectIncorrectCharging HeadUSB Cable
Getting Started       12 Note: This illustration displays both the correct and incorrect orientation for connecting the charger. If the charger is incorrectly connected, damage to the accessory port will occur therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.5. When charging is finished, first unplug the charger’s power plug from the AC wall outlet, then disconnect the charger’s connector from the phone.Important!: If your handset has a touch screen display, please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For more information, refer to “Standard Limited Warranty”  on page 252.Low Battery IndicatorWhen the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time remain, a warning tone sounds and the “Low battery” message repeats at regular intervals on the display.

13Extending Your Battery LifeActive applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and GPS functionality all act to drain your battery. The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:• Reduce your backlight on time. • Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.• Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. • Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most applications using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your battery. • Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before charging your device. Repeating this process of a complete discharge and recharge can over time reduce the storage capacity of any battery. • Turn off Automatic application sync. • Use the Power Savings Widget to deactivate hardware functions such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, or LCD brightness setting. • Check the Battery use screen to review what features or functions have been consuming your battery resources.• Check the Running Services and close any unnecessary applications.• Use the Task Manager feature to end/shutdown background applications that are still running. These minimized applications can, over time, cause your device to “slow down”. • Turn off any streaming services after use (see Running Services).• Animated wallpapers use processing power, memory, and more power. Change your Live Wallpaper to a non-animated Wallpaper gallery or Gallery image.

91Joining Contact InformationMost people now maintain multiple email accounts, social networking logins, and other similar account information. For example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a corporate email account login because they are maintained separately and for different groups of people.This device can synchronize with multiple accounts (such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, Google, or T-Mobile). When you synchronize your phone with those accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Video! chat account, when you merge those accounts into your Contacts list you can join all of her entries and view the information in one record.Joining contact information makes sending messages easy. You can select any account email address or information all from one screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate the desired account information.Next time you synchronize your phone with your accounts, any updates contacts make to email account names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.1. From the Home screen, tap  .2. Tap a contact name (the name you want to link to another entry) to reveal the Contact entry’s Overview Screen.Note: Typically this is the same contact with a different name or account information.3.

Julie appears to disappear and only Amy remains. Tap the Amy entry (showing the Julie image) to view both.

Tap   next to the entry you want to unjoin. The contacts are “unjoined” or separated and no longer display in the merged record screen. Both contacts now go back to being separately displayed.Marking a Contact as DefaultWhen you use applications such as the Voice Dialer or other messaging type applications, the application needs to know which information is primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example, when you say “Call John Smith”, if you have three phone records for John Smith, the Voice dialer is looking for the “default” number or entry.The Mark as default option marks one entry in a contact record to use as the default. This comes in handy when you have multiple entries for the same person.1. From the Home screen, tap  .2. Tap a Contact entry.3. Press   and then tap Mark as default. The Mark as default screen displays radio buttons next to the contact name, phone number, or other contact information.4.
