This type is made up of three sets of digits separated by asterisks (for example, 444*5555*111). When calling a person or storing a contact with this type of number, be sure to include the asterisks in the number. ● A single number – Some Direct Connect numbers use the same numbers as the wireless number for the phone (for example, 555-555-1234). If the person you are calling has a single number for both voice calls and for Direct Connect, use that ten-digit phone number to make Direct Connect calls. You do not need to add any asterisks (*) to the number. Your Direct Connect Number Your Direct Connect number is the same as your wireless phone number (for example, 555-555-1234). Sprint Direct Connect Now is compatible with this type of Direct Connect number as well as Direct Connect-specific numbers separated by asterisks (for example, 444*5555*111). Tip: Users with a Nextel phone must always add asterisks (*) between sets of numbers to dial Direct Connect numbers. If you use a single number, make sure to tell your contacts with Nextel phones to dial the number using asterisks (*) in place of hyphens (for example, 555*555*1234). Tip: One way to easily ensure that your contacts have your correct number is to call them so that they can save your number from their Call Log or Recent calls list. Ask them for their contact information. Remember you will need all digits of the number to make a successful call. Also, if they have a Nextel phone or a separate number for Direct Connect, you will need to enter asterisks (*) between sets of numbers.

Connectivity The following topics address your phone’s connectivity options, including USB file transfer and tethering, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth®, and more. Connections Optimizer The Connections Optimizer is a tool that automatically selects the best mobile network for your phone, including “remembered” Wi-Fi networks. About Connections Optimizer The Connections Optimizer helps you manage and enhance your data experience by finding and connecting to “remembered” Wi-Fi networks on your phone. Remembered Wi-Fi networks are networks with which you have previously chosen to connect. Active Wi-Fi connections may offer improved performance and generally improve battery life while allowing you to talk on the phone and use data at the same time. The Connections Optimizer works by searching for available “remembered” Wi-Fi networks. If you do not leave your Wi-Fi antenna on all the time, you will only notice the Connections Optimizer operating at certain times of the day in a small number of locations on the network. Your Wi-Fi antenna will conserve battery by scanning for connections periodically (not continuously), and if no connection is achieved, the antennas will be turned off. You may also manually turn the antennas off during the scan period. To facilitate quality assurance and enable feature enhancements, information is collected about your battery levels, Wi-Fi and network connections and usage. No personal information is collected. Connectivity 267
