Push to Talk (PTT)

Welcome to PTT

Push to Talk (PTT) from AT&T lets you see whether your family, friends, and co-workers are available to talk before you call. You can reach them individually or all at once via a group call, all in an instant. Read on to hear about all of the features AT&T Push to Talk has to offer.

Initialize your PTT Service

Begin initializing your PTT service by pressing the PTT Key (black button on left side of phone) or by entering Push to Talk(1) from the Main Menu.

You will then register your name and, once initialization completes, begin adding your family, friends, and co-workers who are also AT&T PTT subscribers.

PTT Tips

PTT is a great way of communicating instantly with the people who are important to you. Here are a few tips to help you.

1.Make sure you are holding the PTT Key down while you talk.

2.Make sure you don't start talking until AFTER you hear the tone.

3.Note the location of the speakerphone and microphone to make sure you aren't covering either with your grip.

4.PTT calls can be easily started with the flip closed. During a PTT call with the flip open and speaker OFF, the call will be terminated when the flip is closed. When the speaker is ON, closing the flip will not terminate the call.

5.Turn the volume up high to more clearly hear your PTT calls.

Users could capture images and videos, making it convenient for social sharing. While the camera quality may not meet modern expectations, it provided essential functionality for documenting everyday moments.

Connectivity was another important aspect of the CU515. Equipped with Bluetooth technology, users could pair the phone with headsets and other devices, enhancing hands-free calling and media sharing. The phone also supported text messaging and multimedia messaging, facilitating communication in various formats.

Perhaps one of the most significant characteristics of the LG CU515 is its user-friendly interface.
