Use phone settings and services

You can customize and set various options for an incoming or outgoing call on your phone, such as voice privacy, location setting, and more. You can also choose to activate and use optional phone services on your phone. Contact your wireless service provider first to ask about the availability of these services before you use them.

The following are some of the optional phone services that can be used on your phone:

Services

 

Auto Answer

Provide options to set how quickly incoming calls are automatically answered during hands-

 

free operation. Choose options as 3, 4, 6, 8, or 10 seconds. Choose Never to disable this

 

option. However, these settings do not apply when the ring type is Silent.

Automatic Prepend

Enable this option to automatically add “1” in front of the number for long distance calls, if

 

required.

Call Options

Provide options for setting any key answer to incoming calls, notifying when voice privacy is

 

unavailable, and setting your phone number, voice mail number, country code, and area code.

Location Setting

Turning Location Setting to On will allow the mobile network to detect your current location

 

via your phone’s built-in GPS chip, making some applications easier to use. This is especially

 

useful in times of emergency. Turning location off will hide your location from everyone

 

except 911. Even if Location Setting is turned on in your phone, no service may use your

 

location without your exclusive consent.

 

At the top right of the Phone screen and Home screen, one of these icons appears:

 

- when Location Setting is set to On

 

- when Location Setting is set to Emergency Only (E911)

Mode Preference

Provide options to select a connection mode for your phone. While there are options to

 

choose between 1x Only and EVDO Only, it is recommended that you select Automatic to

 

let your phone choose the connection mode on its own.

Network Service

Choose to accept roaming by selecting Standard. Otherwise restrict your device to phone

 

calls from your home network only (by selecting the Home only option).

Plus Code Dialing

Enable this option and enter the international dialing code in front of the number to make

 

international calls, if required.

Time Synchronization

Enable this option if you want your phone to automatically set its time according to changing

 

time zone and clock. Choose Disable if you want to change this manually.

TTY Mode

Allow the use of a TTY (teletypewriter) device with the phone for users who are visually or

 

hearing impaired. Choose Full mode or Off according to the need.
