Extending Your Battery Life

Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and other functionality all act to drain your battery. The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:

e Reduce your Backlight on time. See “Changing the

Backlight Time Length” on page 42.

e Reduce the screen Brightness. See “Adjusting the

Screen's Brightness” on page 43.

e Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. See “Turning

Bluetooth On and Off” on page 104.
e Disconnect from Web services that are not in use (Facebook®, Twitter®, etc.) See “3C. Entertainment” on page 147.
Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before charging your phone. Repeating this process of a complete discharge and recharge, can over time reduced the storage capacity of any battery.

WARNING: 911 Emergency Calling

Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS),

analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points

Getting Started With Data Services

With your Sprint service, you are ready to start enjoying the advantages of data services. This section will help you learn the basics of using your data services, including managing your user name, launching a data connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.

Your User Name

When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you’re automatically assigned a user name, which is typically based on your name and a number, followed by “@sprintpcs.com.” (For example, the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint data services might have [email protected] as his user name.)
When you use data services, your user name is submitted to identify you to the Nationwide Sprint Network. Your user name will be automatically programmed into your phone. You don’t have to enter it.

Finding Your User Name

If you aren’t sure what your user name is, you can easily find it online or on your phone.
e At www.sprint.com. Sign on to your account using your phone number and password. To display your user name, click on the Settings & Passwords menu, then under the Account Admin Tools column, click on Phone Labels > Username.

e On your phone. You can find your user name under the Phone Information option in your phone’s Settings menu ( > Main > Settings > General >

Phone Information).

Updating Your User Name

If you choose to change your user name and select a new one online, you must then update the data profile on the phone to reflect the name change.
� Press and touch Main () > Settings > General > Update Data Profile. (To cancel, press

before completing the update.)

Data Restrictions

Parental Controls determine what features you have access to on your phone. (See “Using Parental Controls” on page 51.)

When you first connect to the Web, access is confirmed against the current Parental Restrictions. If data access has been restricted, you will be notified with an onscreen warning. This feature helps prevent any accidental data connections. You can disable the data restriction feature by changing the setting from within the Parental Controls menu.

Note: To access Parental Controls, the feature must first be active (page 51).

To change your Restriction settings:

1. Press and touch Main () > Settings > Parental Controls > Restriction.

2. Touch the Web Browser button to toggle it to either:

• On to activate the Data Restriction.

• Off to deactivate the Data Restriction.

Data Connection Status and Indicators

Your phone displays the current status of your data connection through indicators at the top of the screen. The following symbols are used:

Your phone is on and is connected to the Sprint
1xRTT data network. When the arrows are animated, data is being transferred (for example, when you are opening a Web page). When the arrows are gray, your phone is connected to the network but is not currently transferred data (for example, when you are viewing a Web page that is completely open), and you can receive calls.

If no indicator is displayed, your phone does not have a current data connection. To launch a connection, see “Launching a Web Connection” on page 124.

Navigating the Web

Navigating through menus and websites during a data session is easy once you’ve learned a few basics.
