Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger  
Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved  
batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use  
a Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved battery and  
charger may increase the risk that your phone will  
overheat, catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily  
injury, death, or property damage.  
Warning!  
Sprint- or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories  
can be found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s  
manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also  
available at www.sprint.com – click the Wireless link under  
“Personal,” and then click Accessories under  
“Shop Sprint PCS Online.”  
Battery Capacity  
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It  
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.  
The battery provides up to three hours of continuous digital  
talk time.  
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon  
blinks. When there are approximately two minutes of talk  
time left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers  
down.  
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,  
Bluetooth, and browser use affect the battery’s talk and  
standby times.  
Note:  
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and  
charge the battery before it runs out of power.  
Tip:  
21  
     
Installing the Battery

Charging the Battery  
Your phone’s Li-Ion battery is rechargeable and should be  
charged as soon as possible so you can begin using your  
phone.  
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your  
battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically  
turns off and you will lose all the information you were just  
working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level,  
glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-  
right corner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery  
charge is getting too low, the low battery icon (  
) is  
displayed, a popup warning message is displayed, and the  
phone sounds a warning tone.  
Always use a Sprint-approved desktop charger, travel charger,  
or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.  
Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to  
your phone and void the warranty.  
Warning!

The transcriber option is similar to the letter recognizer, but  
instead of entering characters in a designated area, you can  
enter entire words and sentences using your own  
handwriting. Transcriber supports both printing and cursive  
writing styles and then automatically displays the  
information on the screen. The following general options are

which the writing sample is analyzed. The faster the  
setting the less likely to get all words correct. Better  
quality is achieved with longer processing.  
Recognition start time - Allows you to set the time you can  
pause before the device will assume you have finished  
one word and are ready to enter a new one.

quality of mono and stereo audio,  
creating improved dynamics and  
bass performance in your phone’s  
internal speakers (or optional  
headphones, if attached), WOW  
provides a panoramic three-  
dimensional audio image that  
extends the sound in both the  
horizontal and vertical planes well  
beyond the speakers or headphones  
themselves. These enriching effects are especially noticeable  
on digitally compressed audio formats such as MP3 and  
WMA.  
WOW is comprised of SRS®, TruBass® and Focus®  
technologies, and adds the following features to your audio  
listening experience.  
Sound EQ - allows you to select an automatic equalizer  
setting based on music genre or set up customized  
settings. The current settings are Normal, Classic, Jazz,  
Rock, Pop, Dance, or Custom.  
SRS 3D Effect - restores the spatial information that is  
masked by traditional recording and playback techniques.  
SRS Focus - elevates the sound image field to create the  
perception of image height. When used in combination  
with SRS 3D, it delivers an enlarged sound image while  
improving the clarity in the high frequencies in your  
audio.  
47  
SRS TruBass - enhances bass performance by utilizing  
psychoacoustic techniques to restore the perception of  
low frequency tones, delivering deep rich bass to your

and right channels.  
SRS Focus – This setting influences the brightness or  
amount of treble in the audio signal. Increasing this  
setting enhances vocals and dialog.  
SRS TruBass – This setting influences the amount of  
TruBass processing performed on your audio signal.

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode  
Using Call Guard  
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the  
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Your new digital dual-band  
IP-830W by Samsung works anywhere on the Nationwide  
Sprint PCS Network and allows you to roam on other 1900  
and 800 MHz digital networks where we’ve implemented  
roaming agreements with other carriers.  
This section explains how roaming works as well as special  
features that let you manage your roaming experience.  
61  
     
Understanding Roaming  
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Roaming Options  
The following roaming options are available:  
Sprint only - Only allows you to access the Nationwide  
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on other  
networks.  
Roaming Only - forces the phone to seek a roaming

Guard feature. When this feature is enabled, a pop up  
message is displayed if you try to make a call outside your  
local network. You can also select these roaming options of  
Sprint, Roaming Only, or Automatic.  
Data Roam Guard  
Data Roam Guard allows you to see if you are roaming or in  
your local service area. If you are outside of your local  
network, a pop-up screen is displayed. The pop-up screen can

TTY  
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a  
telecommunications device that allows people who are  
deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language  
disabilities to communicate by telephone.  
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please  
check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure  
that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and  
TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your  
phone’s headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your  
TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase  
the connector cable.  
63  
   
When establishing your Sprint PCS Service, please call Sprint  
Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay  
Service (TRS) by first dialing 7-1-1 and tap Talk. Then provide  
the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.  
1. Tap the Start menu bar, and then select Settings > Phone.  
2. Tap the Option tab, then select On or Off from the TTY

when a headset or TTY device is plugged in.  
Note:  
If TTY mode is enabled, the audio quality of non-TTY  
devices connected to the headset jack may be impaired.  
911 Emergency Calling  
WARNING  
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency  
calls by other means, including Telecommunications  
Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline  
communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be  
corrupted when received by public safety answering  
points (PSAPs), rendering some communications  
unintelligible. The problem encountered appears  
related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs.  
This matter has been brought to the attention of the  
FCC, and the wireless industry and PSAP community  
are currently working to resolve this.

Picsel Browser  
Picsel Browser allows you to view documents on your device  
without converting files. The document display environment  
brings new levels of satisfaction to your browsing and  
document viewing experience by supporting popular file  
formats from your desktop environment in their native form  
without any conversion.  
The interface also allows you to navigate your documents by  
simply touching your stylus to the screen, and then panning  
documents or zooming in or out to view every detail of your  
documents.  
84  
   
Launching the Picsel Browser  
To launch the Picsel Browser, follow these steps:  
1. Tap the Start menu bar located in the upper left corner

3. To view the main menu, tap on the Picsel logo  
in  
the lower right of your screen to display the program’s  
carousel.  
4. Choose the function you want by selecting the  
appropriate icon.  
Navigating in Picsel Browser  
To pan (or “scroll”) to a different part of the document, simply  
stroke your pen across the screen in the direction you would  
like the page to move. To pan the page up, touch and hold  
your pen somewhere near the middle of the screen and draw  
a line towards the top, and then take your pen off the screen.  
You can do this repeatedly so that you can view any size  
document.  
Further, you can “throw” the  
document across the screen, and it  
will continue moving after you have  
released the pen. This gives you time  
to start another stroke. This inertia  
can be used to save time while you  
pan around the document.  
You can also zoom the size of the  
document, so that more or less of it  
is visible on the display. The tap-and-  
stroke gesture for this is to tap your  
pen briefly near the middle of the  
85  
screen then touch and hold it again in the same place (a  
“double-tap”). Now, stroke your pen up to zoom in, or down  
to zoom out. Release your pen when you reach the scale you  
like. Using this, you can view small print details on diagrams,  
or can get an overview of a whole page.  
There is a menu of options available for Picsel Browser by  
tapping the icon in the bottom right corner of your screen.  
Using the menu, you can open new documents, adjust the  
screen, configure the settings for Picsel Browser, or exit from  
the application. To find out what each option does, press and  
hold your stylus on an icon to display a tool-tip that explains  
the highlighted option.

stroking your pen along the bottom of the screen, as if you  
were turning the pages of a book. You can also rotate the  
document view between “landscape” and “portrait” formats  
to suit your reading style.  
Folder View  
The Folder view allows you to explore documents stored on  
your device or memory cards, as you would on a desktop  
computer. You can look inside folders for more documents, or  
you can reorganize the ordering and appearance of the list

file again. You can also adjust the amount of time the history  
is recorded for, or delete everything from it by using  
Preferences.

VoiceSignal  
VoiceSignal is advanced speech recognition software that can  
be used to activate a wide-variety of functions on your phone.  
VoiceSignal software automatically voice activates all  
numbers in your Contacts for voice dialing or searching, and  
no prerecording or training is needed.  
VoiceSignal commands allow you to dial numbers, look up  
contact information, and open applications using your voice.  
Simply say a command at the prompt to open your contacts,  
the launcher, the Picsel Browser, and more.  
1. Tap the Start menu bar and then tap Programs. Tap the  
Voice Signal icon.  
2. After a brief pause, “Say a command” at the top center  
of the screen is announced through the speaker.  
3. After the phone beeps, say the name of the command  
that you want to execute. The VoiceSignal commands  
are:  
Call: Lets you dial a phone number by saying a name  
saved in your Contacts list or by saying the digits in  
the telephone number.  
Lookup: Lets you retrieve contact information for  
any entry in your Contacts list.  
Open: Provides you with one-step access to many of  
your phone’s applications such as the Calendar.  
The following sections provide more information about the  
VoiceSignal commands.  
128  
   
Call a Name or Number  
The Call command lets you dial a person by saying the name  
you’ve stored for that person in your Contacts list or by saying  
a telephone number, even if you have not saved the number  
in contacts.  
Voice Dialing Tips  
Voice dialing works best in quieter environments.  
When pronouncing a name or number, speak at a normal  
speed, there is no need to pause between digits.  
The phone recognizes the digits one, two, three, four, five,  
six, seven, eight, nine, zero, and oh (zero). It doesn’t  
recognize numbers such as “one eight hundred” for  
“1—800.” Instead, say “one eight zero zero,” or “one eight  
oh oh.”  
The phone recognizes only valid seven or ten-digit North  
American phone numbers, optionally preceded by the  
digit “1.”  
If you are experiencing frequent problems with Voice Dial  
recognizing your commands, try adapting it to your voice,  
which greatly improves its accuracy. See Adapting Digits”  
on page 131 for more information.

voice characteristics may receive better results after adapting  
the system to match their voices.  
You should adapt Digit Dial only if the system is frequently  
unable to recognize your speech. After you adapt Digit Dial,  
your phone is customized to your voice, and your voice only.  
Others will not be able to use it unless they reset the phone to  
factory defaults.  
Note:  
Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to  
adapt the system to the unique properties of your voice. The  
adaptation process takes about three minutes.  
131  
   
Tips for Adapting Digit Dial  
Adapt digits in a quiet place.  
Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.  
Speak clearly, and say each digit distinctly.  
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of  
digits, or if there is an unexpected noise that spoils the  
recording, rerecord that sequence.  
Adapt digit dialing only if you regularly have problems  
with digit dialing. Once adapted, digit dialing will not  
work as well for other people using your phone.

Section 2H  
Using Bluetooth Wireless Technology  
In This Section  
Your phone features built-in Bluetooth wireless technology,  
allowing you to share information more easily than ever before.  
Bluetooth is a short-range communications technology that  
allows you to connect wirelessly to a number of Bluetooth-  
enabled devices, such as headsets, hands-free car kits,  
handhelds, PCs, printers, and wireless phones. The Bluetooth  
communication range is usually up to approximately 10  
meters (30 feet).  
139  
     
About Bluetooth Wireless Technology  
Bluetooth wireless technology provides short range wireless  
communication exchange over a distance of about 30 feet  
without requiring a physical connection.  
Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam  
information using Bluetooth. If the devices are within range  
of one another, you can exchange information between them  
even if they are located in different rooms.  
Your phone allows you to beam files, appointments, tasks,  
and contact cards between common devices or you can use  
Bluetooth wireless technology enabled peripherals to  
integrate with your device.  
140  
   
Bluetooth Service Profiles  
The Bluetooth wireless technology specification is a protocol  
that describes how the short-range wireless technology  
works, whereas individual profiles describe the services  
supported by individual devices like your phone. Profiles  
reduce the chance that different devices will not work  
together.  
Your phone supports the following profile services:  
SDAP (Service Discovery Application Profile) - This  
mandatory profile is used to find out which profiles are  
offered by the Server device.  
FTP (File Transfer profile) - Provides access to the file  
system on another device. This includes support for  
getting folder listings, changing to different folders,  
getting files, putting files and deleting files. It uses OBEX  
as a transport and is based on GOEP.  
GAP (Generic Access Profile) - Provides the basis for all  
other profiles.  
HFP (Hands Free Profile) - This is commonly used to allow  
hands-free car kits to communicate with wireless phones  
within a vehicle.  
HSP (Headset Profile) - This is the most commonly used  
profile, providing support for the popular Bluetooth  
headsets to be used with mobile phones. It relies on SCO  
for audio and a subset of AT commands from GSM 07.07  
for minimal controls including the ability to ring, answer  
a call, hang up, and adjust the volume. (Note: This device  
does not support the stereo headset profile.)  
HID (Human Interface Device Profile - [Bluetooth  
keyboard only]) - Provides support for devices such as  
mice, joysticks, keyboards, etc.  
141  
 
OBEX (Object Exchange Profile) - A communications  
protocol that facilitates the exchange of binary objects  
between devices.  
SPP (Serial Port Profile) - This profile is based on the ETSI  
TS07.10 specification and uses the RFCOMM protocol. It  
emulates a serial cable to provide a simply implemented  
wireless replacement for existing RS-232 based serial  
communications applications, including familiar control  
signals. It provides the basis for DUN, FAX, HSP, and AVRCP  
profiles.  
ActiveSync – Uses SPP to connect to ActiveSync on a  
computer.  
SYNCH (Synchronisation Profile) - This profile allows  
synchronization of Personal Information Manager (PIM)  
items. As this profile originated as part of the infrared  
specifications but has been adopted by the Bluetooth SIG  
to form part of the main Bluetooth specification, it is also  
commonly referred to as IrMC Synchronization.  
GOEP (Generic Object Exchange Profile ) - Provides a basis  
for other data transfer profiles. Based on OBEX.  
SDAP (Service Discovery Application Profile ) - This  
mandatory profile is used to find out which profiles are  
offered by the Server device.  
OPP (Object Push Profile ) - A basic profile for sending  
“objects” such as pictures, virtual business cards, or  
appointment details. It is called push because the  
transfers are always instigated by the sender (client), not  
the receiver (server).  
142  
Bluetooth Modes  
Bluetooth operates in two modes:  
On/Off Mode  
When the Bluetooth radio is turned on, you can use the  
Bluetooth wireless technology features available in your  
phone. When the Bluetooth radio is turned off, you cannot  
send or receive information via Bluetooth. To save battery life

Make this device discoverable to other devices check  
box.  
Note:  
144  
Bluetooth Bonds  
A bond is a relationship that you create between your phone  
and another Bluetooth-enabled device to exchange  
information in a secure manner. Creating a bond involves  
entering the same passkey on the two devices sharing a  
bond. Once a bond is created between devices, the devices do  
not have to be discoverable to exchange information;  
however, each device must have its Bluetooth radio on.  
Bonds are created only once between devices. Once a bond is  
created, devices can exchange information as soon the bond  
is recognized, eliminating the need to discover one another or  
to enter security features like a common passkey.  
Creating Bluetooth Bonds  
You can create a bond between your device and another  
device that has Bluetooth-enabled. Once you do this,  
Bluetooth doesn't need to be in discoverable mode in order  
for you to beam information between the two devices; the

Section 4A  
Important Safety Information  
In This Section  
This phone guide contains important operational and safety  
information that will help you safely use your phone. Failure to  
read and follow the information provided in this phone guide  
may result in serious bodily injury, death, or property  
damage.  
211  
     
General Precautions  
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and  
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.  
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If  
your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove  
the battery.  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or  
sitting on it.  
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.  
For the best care of your phone, only Sprint authorized  
personnel should service your phone and accessories. Failure  
to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.  
Note:  
212  
 
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to  
Your Phone  
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls  
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee  
connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon  
any mobile phone for essential communication (e.g., medical  
emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks  
or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in use.  
Check with your local service provider for details.  
Using Your Phone While Driving  
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a  
hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to  
specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.  
Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint  
Store, or call the Sprint PCS Accessory Hotline at 1-800-974-  
Tip:  
®
2221 or by dialing #222 on your phone.  
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.  
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)  
signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately  
shielded electronic equipment.  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded  
electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor  
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to determine  
if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also  
check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been  
added to your vehicle.  
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.  
213  
 
Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request  
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.  
Note:  
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 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.  
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in  
a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios  
should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF  
devices to set off explosives.  
Turn your phone off when you're in any area that has a potentially  
explosive atmosphere. Although “it's” rare, your phone and accessories  
could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or 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’s engine.  
Never transport or store flammable gas or liquids or  
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains  
your phone or accessories.  
Note:  
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone  
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could  
hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase  
your Sprint PCS invoice.  
214  
Caring for the Battery  
Protecting Your Battery  
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s  
performance.  
Recently, there have been some public reports of wireless phone  
batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It appears that  
many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive,  
aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable  
manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with  
Sprint PCS® phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and  
accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone.  
Use only Sprint-or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories  
found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call  
1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com –  
click the Wireless link under “Personal,” and then click Accessories  
under "Shop Sprint PCS Online.” Buying the right batteries and  
accessories is the best way to ensure they’re genuine and safe.  
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that  
range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).  
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity  
areas, such as the bathroom.  
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.  
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.  
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long  
period of time.  
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable  
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs  
replacing.  
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of  
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:  
Less than one month:  
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)  
More than one month:  
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)  
215  
 
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries  
For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest  
Sprint authorized service center.  
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas,  
the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.  
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy  
Understanding How Your Phone Operates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned  
on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use  
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This  
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.  
Knowing Radiofrequency Safety  
The design of your 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).  
Body-Worn Operation  
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a  
handset on your body, use the Sprint supplied or approved carrying case,  
holster or other body-worn accessory. Use of non-Sprint approved  
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at  
216  
 
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones  
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy  
absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.  
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring,  
and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone  
emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict  
laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be  
substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a  
variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone  
design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each  
phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a  
variation in safety.  
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a  
substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values  
between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR  
values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for  
use by the public.  
The highest reported SAR values of the IP-830w are:  
CDMA mode (Part 22):  
Head: 1.17 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.367 W/kg  
FCC Radiofrequency Emission  
This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines.  
FCC ID number: A3LSPHIP-830w.
