.
How do I sign in for the first time?
You are automatically signed in to access data services when you
turn on your phone.
How do I know when my phone is connected to data services?
Your phone automatically connects when data service is used or
an incoming message arrives. You will also see the indicator.
Can I make calls and use data services at the same time?
You cannot use voice call and data services simultaneously. If you
receive a call while data service is active, your phone forwards the
call to voicemail. You can place an outgoing call anytime, but it
will interrupt any in-progress data session.
When is my data connection active?
Your connection is active when data is being transferred.
Outgoing calls are allowed; incoming calls go directly to
voicemail. When active, the indicator flashes on your phone’s
display screen.
When is my data connection dormant?
If your phone receives no data for 10 seconds, the connection
goes dormant. When the connection is dormant, you can make
and receive voice calls. (The connection may become active again
quickly.) If no data is received for an extended period of time, the
connection will terminate.
Can I sign out of data services?
You can sign out without turning off your phone; however, you will
not be able to browse the Web or use other data services. While
signed out, you can still place or receive phone calls, check
voicemail, and use other voice services. You may sign in again at
any time. To sign out, press
> Settings/Tools > Settings >
More... > Data > Disable Data
in your phone’s menu.
