SIM Card, Memory Card, and Battery InformationYour SIM Card
Locating the SIM Card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is a small
card inserted into the SIM card holder within your
phone below the battery.
If no SIM card came with your phone, contact Sprint
Customer Service at 1-800-639-6111.
Most users will never need to remove or insert the SIM
card. However, if it becomes necessary, follow the
instructions in “Removing and Inserting the SIM Card”
on page 10.
Important: The SIM card is designed for optimal Contacts
storage and feature use. For SIM card
compatibility information, visit
www.nextel.com/sim.
In some cases, Contacts and Groups may not be
accessible if you move your SIM card to another
phone. Contacts and Groups created with your
MOTOROLA i886 may not be readable by an
older iDEN SIM-based phone.
Note: Your MOTOROLA i886 Contacts are managed and
stored on your phone rather than on the SIM card. If
you are using a SIM card from a previous phone, you
can import your existing contacts from the SIM card to
your MOTOROLA i886 using the SIM Manager.
Likewise, you can export your phone’s Contacts to your
SIM card. See “Import and Export Contacts” on
page 87 for details.
WARNING: The first time you turn on your phone, your SIM
card is linked to it. If you remove your SIM card
and replace it with a different SIM card, your
phone will perform a master clear when turned
on and all data on the phone will be erased.
