User's Manual Part 3

Appendix/External Devices/Troubleshooting
Regarding data and programs downloaded or obtained from sites,
i-mode mail messages or SMS messages to the FOMA phone, you can
detect data that might cause failure, can delete it, and can stop starting
an application program.
Use the pattern data for checking. Update the pattern data, because it is upgraded
each time new trouble is found. (See page 534)
The scan function is for filtering out the data that causes failure to mobile phones at the
time of browsing web pages or receiving mail messages. Note that this function works
only when the pattern data for each failure has been downloaded to your mobile phone
and when the pattern data for each failure is found.
The data contained in the pattern data varies depending on the mobile phone model.
Therefore, note that we may stop distributing the pattern data to mobile phones that
have been on the market for three years or more.
If you set “Scan” to “Valid”, data or a program can be automatically
checked when you try to run it.
In addition, if you set “Message scan” to “Valid”, a received SMS
message can be automatically checked when you display it.

Information
When updating the pattern data, the proper information about your FOMA phone
(model name, serial number, etc.) is automatically sent to the server (DoCoMo-
managed server for the scanning function). We at DoCoMo never use the sent
information for other purposes than for the scanning function.
Set the date (year/month/date) for the FOMA phone correctly in advance.
The pattern data is not updated in the following cases:
・When the date/time is not set ・During a call ・Out of the service area
・When the UIM is not inserted ・During Lock All
・While another function is working
・When connecting to external devices such as personal computers
・While Self Mode is activated
If you cancel downloading midway, the data downloaded up to that point is deleted.
