Battery  
Your phone uses a rechargeable battery. Please use only original batteries and  
accessories that came with your phone or replacements that we recommend.  
How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use  
your phone. Among these are the phone features and accessories you use  
(for example, leaving your Bluetooth connection always on uses more power). Long  
phone calls and frequent web browsing use up much battery. Also, consider your  
location: poor signal strength from your mobile network and extreme temperature  
make the battery work harder.  
Removing the battery  
Right after you take your phone out from the box for the first time, don’t forget to remove the  
thin film wrapped around the battery that’s inside your phone.  
1. Take the back cover off. See "Removing the back cover" to find out how.  
2. With your thumb or finger, lift the battery compartment cover off from the small  
opening on the left side of your phone.  
3. Pull the battery out from the battery compartment.

phone, SIM card, and online accounts such as Google Account and Exchange  
ActiveSync) and the phone numbers from the call log.  
For example, if you tap number “2” on the phone dialer, which is associated with [a, b,  
and c] on the phone dialer, contact names such as the following will be considered  
matches: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “John-Carter”, “Carter, Ellen”, “Dixon, Allan”,  
“Thomas_Clark”, “JaneCampbell”.  
If the matching list is long and you want to narrow down the search further, enter  
another letter. Using the same example above, if you continue to tap “3” which is  
associated with [d, e, f], the matching list will be narrowed down to the following  
names: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “Carter, Ellen”, “Dixon, Allan”.

Bluetooth  
Where sent information is saved  
When you send information from your phone using Bluetooth, the location where it’s  
saved depends on the type of information and the receiving device.  
If you send a calendar event or contact, it is normally added directly to the  
corresponding app on the receiving device. For example, if you send a calendar event  
to a compatible phone, the event is shown in that phone’s calendar app.  
If you send another file type to a Windows computer, it is normally saved in the  
Bluetooth Exchange folder within your personal document folders.  
On Windows XP, the path may be:  
C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\Bluetooth  
Exchange  
On Windows Vista, the path may be:  
C:\Users\[your username]\Documents  
On Windows 7, the path may be:  
C:\Users\[your username]\My Documents\Bluetooth Exchange Folder  
If you send a file to another device, the saved location may depend on the file type.  
For example, if you send an image file to another mobile phone, it may be saved in a  
folder named “Images.”  
Receiving information using Bluetooth  
Your phone is capable of receiving a wide variety of file types with Bluetooth,  
including photos, music tracks, and documents such as PDFs.  
The first time you transfer information between your phone and another device, you  
need to enter or confirm a security passcode. After that, your phone and the other  
device are paired, and you will not need to exchange passcodes to transfer  
information in the future.  
To receive files using Bluetooth, you need to have a microSD card on your phone.  
1. From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless &  
networks > Bluetooth settings.  
2. If the Bluetooth check box is not selected, select it to turn Bluetooth on.  
3. Select the Discoverable check box.  
4. On the sending device, send one or more files to your phone. Refer to the  
device’s documentation for instructions on sending information over Bluetooth.  
5. If prompted, accept the pairing request on your phone and the receiving device.  
Also enter the same passcode on both your phone and the other device, or  
confirm the auto-generated passcode.  
A Bluetooth authorization request is then displayed on your phone.  
6. If you want to automatically receive files from the sending device in the future,  
select the Always check box.  
7. Tap Accept or OK.  
8. When your phone receives a file transfer request notification, slide down the  
Notifications panel, tap the incoming file notification, and then tap Accept.  
9. When a file is transferred, a notification is displayed. To open the file  
immediately, slide down the Notifications panel, and then tap the relevant  
notification.

Bluetooth  
105  
When you open a received file, what happens next depends on the file type:  
 Media files and documents are usually opened directly in a compatible app.  
For example, if you open a music track, it starts playing in the Media Room  
app.  
 For a vCalendar file, choose the calendar where you want to save the event,  
and then tap Import. The vCalendar is added to your Calendar events.  
For information on using Calendar, see the Calendar chapter.  
 For a vCard contact file, if there are multiple vCard files on your storage  
card, you can choose to import one, several, or all of those contacts to your  
contacts list.  
Adding the Bluetooth received folder to the Home screen  
You can add a folder to the Home screen that shows all files you have received with  
Bluetooth.  
1. From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Add to Home.  
2. On the Add to Home screen, tap Folder > Bluetooth received.  
3. Press and hold the Bluetooth received folder icon, and drag it to the Home  
screen position you want.

Updating the phone software  
From time to time, software updates for your phone may be available. Your phone can  
check and then notify you if there’s a new update. You can then download and install  
the software update using your phone’s Wi-Fi or data connection.  
Checking and downloading phone software updates may incur additional data transfer  
fees from T-Mobile.  
Make sure your phone has a microSD card inserted. The update will be downloaded to the  
microSD card.  
Depending on the type of update, the update may erase all your personal data and  
customized settings, and also remove any applications you’ve installed. Make sure  
that you’ve backed up the information and files you want to keep.  
When there is an update available, the Install system software update dialog  
box will appear onscreen. Select Install now and then tap OK.  
If you’re in the middle of a call and there’s an update available, you’ll receive  
an update notification. After you end the call, slide open the Notifications  
panel (see "Opening the Notifications panel" in the Getting started chapter).  
Then tap the update notification to download and install the software  
update.  
Wait for the update process to finish. When the update is finished, the phone will  
automatically reset.  
Restarting or factory resetting your phone  
Restarting your phone (soft reset)  
If your phone is running slower than normal, an application is not performing properly,  
or your phone becomes unresponsive, try restarting your phone and see if that helps  
solve the problem.  
1. If the display is off, press the POWER button to turn it back on.  
2. Unlock your phone if the Lock screen is displayed. See "Unlocking the screen" in  
the Getting started chapter.  
3. Press and hold the POWER button, and then tap Restart.  
4. When asked to confirm, tap Restart.  
If you can’t restart the phone following the above steps, remove the battery, wait for a  
few seconds, reinsert the battery, and then turn the phone on.

Performing a factory reset (hard reset)  
If you’re passing your phone on to someone else or your phone has a persistent  
problem that cannot be solved, you can do a factory reset (also called a hard reset).  
This returns your phone to the state it was in before the first time you turned it on.  
Factory reset will not erase the data and files that are on the storage card.  
Factory reset is not a step to be taken lightly. It’ll permanently delete all your data and  
customized settings, and will remove any applications you’ve downloaded and  
installed. Be sure to back up any data and files you want to keep before you do a  
factory reset.  
Performing a factory reset via settings  
1. From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings.  
2. Tap SD & phone storage > Factory data reset.  
3. On the Factory data reset screen, tap Reset phone, and then tap Erase  
everything.  
Performing a factory reset using phone buttons  
If you can’t turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a  
factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.  
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then  
briefly press the POWER button.  
2. Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release  
the VOLUME DOWN button.  
3. Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER  
button.
