Staying Close
ꢆ.1 It’s All About People
Bringing people who matter most closer to you – that’s what your
phone is all about.
Add everyone you know to your phone to keep them within reach.
For even faster communication, you can put people you keep in touch
with often up front on your Home screen’s People tab. You can also
add your own personal details to your phone and easily send this
information to others.
Since your phone organizes text and multimedia messages, email
conversations, and phone logs of a person all in one place, you get to
see at a glance all communications with that person. Your phone also
keeps you in tune with your social circles by integrating Facebook
information into the contact details of people on your phone.
In this chapter, learn how to share your personal details, add people’s
contact details to your phone, and put your favorite contacts on the
Home screen’s People tab. Also learn how to view the exchange of
messages and conversations with a contact.
To find out how you can reach out to people and share your thoughts,

Meeting Requests
ꢃ.1 Synchronizing With the Exchange Server
To keep up-to-date with your work email and meeting schedules and
still have access to the Company Directory while you’re out of the
office, you can connect your phone to the Internet through Wi-Fi or a
data connection and sync with your company’s Exchange Server.
Setting up an Exchange Server connection
To access your Outlook work email and meeting schedules from your
phone, you need to set up an Exchange Server connection on your
phone. You can set this up from the Home screen’s Mail tab. See “Mail”
in Chapter 3 for instructions.
Starting synchronization
Before you start synchronizing with the Exchange Server, make sure
your phone has been set up with a Wi-Fi or data connection to the
Internet so that you can sync over the air. For more information about
connections, see Chapter 9.
After you finish setting up an Exchange Server connection, your
phone automatically starts synchronization.

services.
2. Tap ActiveSync.
ꢅ. Tap Sync now.
ꢃ.2 Working With Company Email Messages
Your phone gives you instant access to your company email messages
and lets you manage your messages easier. Direct Push, Fetch Mail,
Remote email search, and email flags are just some of the tools you
can use to manage your email messages.
Note
Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server
version used in your company. Check with your network administrator
for the availability of these features.
Automatic synchronization through Direct Push
Direct Push technology (push email feature) enables you to receive
new email messages on your phone as soon as they arrive in your Inbox
on the Exchange Server. Items such as contacts, calendar and tasks
are also immediately updated onto your phone when these items have
been changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange Server.
To make Direct Push work, you need to have a Wi-Fi or data connection
on your phone. If this is your first time to use Direct Push, you also
need to perform a full synchronization between your phone and the
Exchange Server before Direct Push can be enabled.
Requirement
The Direct Push feature works for your phone only if your
company is using Microsoft Exchange Server 200ꢅ Service
Pack 2 (SP2) with Exchange ActiveSync or later.
Chapter ꢃ Working With Company Email and Meeting Requests 1ꢀꢄ

controls.
2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap the Off/On slider at the right

services.
2. Tap ActiveSync.
ꢅ. Tap Peak time and Non-peak time to select different sync
schedules for each.
ꢆ. Tap OK.
Instant download through Fetch Mail
The Fetch Mail feature downloads an entire email immediately without
the need for you to perform a full Send/Receive action. This limits the
download to just the email message that you want and helps save
data cost.
Requirement
Fetch Mail works for your phone only if your company is using
Microsoft Exchange Server 200ꢂ or later.

Finding and Recording Places
11.1 Guidelines and Preparation for Using GPS
To ensure safety on the road, follow these guidelines before and when
using your phone for GPS navigation.
•
When using GPS navigation software in the car, always plot your
GPS route before starting to drive. Do not try to configure the
GPS navigation software while driving.
•
•
The plotted GPS route is only for driving reference. It should not
interfere with actual driving behavior.
When using the phone inside a vehicle, use the car holder to
mount the phone securely in place. Avoid placing the phone in
the areas shown in the following diagram:
1. Do not place where
it will block the
driver’s vision.
2. Do not place where
air bags could
deploy.
3. Do not place
anywhere in the
vehicle without
securing the phone
in the holder.
200 Chapter 11 Finding and Recording Places
•
Use the GPS system cautiously. Users shall be liable for any
damages resulting from negligent operation of the system.
•
Do not leave your phone in a vehicle or expose the phone to
direct sunlight to avoid overheating the battery, which could
pose damage to the phone or risk to the vehicle.
•
The GPS signal cannot pass through solid non-transparent
objects. Signal reception may be affected by obstructions such
as high-rise buildings, tunnels, bridges, forests, weather (rainy or
cloudy days), etc. If the vehicle’s visor contains metal, it will be
difficult for the GPS signal to pass through.
•
•
Other nearby wireless communication products (such as mobile
phones or radar-detecting devices) may interfere with the
satellite signal, resulting in unstable signal reception.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the
US Defense Department. The Department is responsible for the
accuracy and maintenance of the system. Any changes that the
Department makes may affect the accuracy and function of the
GPS system.
Chapter 11 Finding and Recording Places 201
11.2 Downloading Location Data via QuickGPS
Before using your phone for GPS navigation, open QuickGPS to

Performing a hard reset
If a normal reset does not solve a system problem, you can perform a
hard (full) reset. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default
settings—the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it
on. You will lose any programs you installed, data you entered, and
settings you customized on your device, and only Windows Mobile®
software and other pre-installed programs will remain.
Warning!
Your device will be set back to factory default settings. Make sure
that any additional installed programs and/or user data have been
backed up before you perform a hard reset.
Important
If Encrypt files when placed on a storage card is enabled, back up
all files from the storage card before performing a factory reset
(Clear Storage or hard reset) or updating the operating system.
Otherwise, you will no longer be able to access the encrypted files
on the storage card. Use ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device
Center to transfer files between your storage card and computer.
After the procedure, copy your files back to the storage card.

Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications
made to the device that are not expressly approved by HTC Corporation may
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
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 industry has developed a rating system for wireless
phones, to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with
their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated
have the rating on their box or 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. RHOD300 is rated M3.
Hearing devices may also 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 rating values are then added together.
Appendix 2ꢁꢂ
A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for
better use. A sum of 8 is considered for best use.
In the above example, 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 is 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 HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output power
is far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy
for the general population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards
previously set by international standards bodies:
2ꢁꢃ Appendix
•
•
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).
Report 86. 1986
•
•
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
1996
Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in usage.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to
the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use
of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the
phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended
limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in
your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy
is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your
device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area
unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna
area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power
level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN
USE optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the
FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operation can be well below the
maximum value.
Appendix 2ꢁꢄ
This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so
as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer
you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before
a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified
to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-
adopted requirement for safe exposure. This phone has been tested and meets
the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no
metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. For
body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines,
use only HTC Corporation approved accessories. When carrying the phone while
it is on, use the HTC Corporation supplied or approved carrying case, holster, or
other body-worn accessory. Use of non HTC Corporation approved accessories
may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Safety Information
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:
•
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
•
•
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn the phone OFF immediately.
2ꢂ0 Appendix
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event
of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the
customer service line to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
