Applications

Visual Radio

You can use the Visual Radio application (network service) as a traditional FM radio with automatic tuning and saved stations. If you tune to stations that offer Visual Radio service, you can view visual information on the display related to the radio program. The Visual Radio service uses packet data (network service). You can listen to the FM radio while using other applications.

To use the Visual Radio service, the following conditions are required:

•The device must be switched on.

•The device must have a valid SIM card inserted.

•The station you listen to and the service provider you use must support this service.

•An IAP must be defined to access the service provider’s Visual Radio server. See "Access points", on page 99.

•The station must have the correct Visual Radio service ID defined and Visual Radio service enabled. See "Saved stations", on page 67.

If you do not have access to the Visual Radio service, the operators and radio stations in your area may not support Visual Radio.

The FM radio depends on an antenna other than the wireless device antenna. A compatible headset or enhancement needs to be attached to the device for the FM radio to function properly.

You can listen to the radio with the built-in loudspeaker or a compatible headset. When using the loudspeaker, keep the headset plugged in the device. The lead of the headset functions as the antenna of the radio, so let it hang freely.

Warning: Listen to music at a moderate level. Continuous exposure to high volume may damage your hearing. Do not hold the device near your ear when the loudspeaker is in use, because the volume may be extremely loud.

You can make a call or answer an incoming call while listening to the radio. The radio is turned off when there is an active call. When the call is finished, the radio is turned back on.
