Your Phone as a Network Device

Your telephone requires a service provider to send and receive calls. Your phone is only one part of a system or “network” of devices that makes it possible for you to send and receive calls, text messages, voice message, access the Internet using the minibrowser, and to take advantage of all of the other services and features available when your phone is used with your service provider.

Your phone will always try your call using your home system, but if this is unavailable, then the phone will use the preferred roaming system.

If you cannot roam, your call will not be connected and the icon is displayed. In some service areas, an operator may come on the line asking you how you would like to pay for the call.

To make all of the features available to you, your phone is designed by Samsung and your service provider to allow your service provider to send (at any time) a variety or information and messages to your phone. You may think of this as an over the air service to your phone. During an over-the-air programming session, your phone may display the following messages:

￿￿￿“Search... Download” - this message means the phone is looking for the data to download.

￿￿￿“Progress Download” - this message means the phone is downloading data. Do not turn your phone off while this is occurring. See the CAUTION below.

￿￿￿“Download Success” - this message means that your phone has been successfully reprogrammed. You can now continue to use your phone as you normally do.

￿￿￿“Download Failed” - if this message appears contact your service provider.
