Receiving calls

To receive calls, your phone must be on. This is different from having only the screen turned on (see Turning your phone on and off). When your phone is off, your calls go to voicemail.

DID YOU KNOW? If you are playing music on your Centro and a call arrives, the music pauses automatically and resumes when you hang up or ignore the call.

TIP See a photo of the person calling you! Learn how to assign a caller ID photo in Assigning a caller ID photo.
