Enabling or Disabling Airplane Mode
Another way to turn off the phone function is to switch your device to Airplane Mode.
1. Tap
Start > Settings > Communications to open the Comm Manager.
2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap
Airplane Mode to enable or disable Airplane Mode.
When enabled, the
ON indicator is activated.
When you enable Airplane Mode, all wireless radios on your device are turned off, including
the phone function, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. When you disable Airplane Mode, the phone
function is turned back on and the previous states of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are restored.
Note
When you return from an international trip and you disable Airplane Mode after landing in the
United States, your device will first search for GSM networks if your device has been set to Global
mode and was connected to a GSM network before. A “No Service” status message may first
appear on your device. Please wait for your device to scan for CDMA service and connect to the
Nationwide Sprint Network or a CDMA roaming network.
