TTY Mode
A TTY (teletypewriter, also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows
people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by
telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to
ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect using a special
cable that plugs into your phone’s headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY device, contact
your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.
To turn TTY Mode on or off:
1. From app list, press Settings > Device > Accessibility > TTY.
2. Select Full, HCO, or VCO to turn TTY mode on.
– or –
Tap Off to turn TTY mode off.
Your phone’s TTY mode is set.
Note: When enabled, TTY mode may impair the audio quality of non-TTY devices connected to the
headset jack.
Warning: 9-1-1 Emergency Calling
It is recommended that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications
Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 9-1-1 may be
corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some communications
unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs.
This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP
community are currently working to resolve this.
