Profiles

A profile is a group of settings saved together so that you can apply them to your phone easily.

A profile contains these settings:

Ring Tones — sets all options described in “Ring Tones” on page 67, except assigning ring tones to Contacts.

Display/Info — sets Wallpaper, Color Palette, Text Size, and Backlight options. See “Display/Info Features” on page 139.

Phone Calls — sets Set Line and Auto Ans options. See “Phone Calls Features” on page 140.

Volume — sets all options described in “Volume Features” on page 141.

Call Filter — controls which calls, call alerts, and message notifications your phone responds to. See “Setting Call Filtering” on page 147.

Advanced — sets headset option. See “Using a Headset” on page 151.

Your phone arrives with pre-set profiles. You can also create your own profiles.
