Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Basic troubleshooting If you experience any difficulty with the phone, try to resolve the problem by performing the following troubleshooting tips. Perform each operation one by one until the problem is resolved. – Turn the phone off and then on again. – Turn the phone off, remove and re-insert the SIM card, and then turn the phone on again. – Update the phone. See page “Updating the phone” (page 77) for more information.
Troubleshooting Problem Battery performance is poor Cause and/or solution • Try using eco mode to save battery power. See “eco mode” • • • • • (page 21). Check all connections and charge the battery again. Ambient temperature is too hot or too cold. If the phone is out of range of a mobile network, the phone continuously searches for an available mobile network and therefore consumes more battery power. Battery performance varies by usage conditions and degrades over time.
Troubleshooting Problem Other party cannot hear your voice Cause and/or solution • Make sure you are not covering the microphone. • Make sure that you are speaking into the microphone and that the microphone is not too far from your mouth. • If you are using a headset, make sure the headset is connected properly. • Reception may be poor in the current location. Move to another area and try again.
Troubleshooting Problem Phone does not recognise my NFC card (NFC tag) Cause and/or solution • The phone cannot register or detect NFC cards if the phone’s NFC feature is turned off. To confirm the setting, tap in the Home screen and then tap [Settings] ® [More…], and then make sure the [NFC] checkbox is turned on. • An NFC card registered for use with the screen lock feature cannot be registered for use with [NFC Starter], and vice versa. • Certain NFC cards may not be able to be registered.
