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 arrows on the or icon light up.
When is my data connection dormant?
If your phone receives no data for ten 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 your phone receives no data 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 (unless you establish a Wi-Fi connection.) 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, go to Settings, and then touch the On/Off switch next to
Mobile data.
Manage Your Data Usage
If you’re on a limited data allowance, it’s important to keep track of the activities and apps that
usually send and receive data, such as browsing the Web, syncing online accounts, and
sending email or sharing status updates.
Here are some other examples:
● Streaming Web videos and music
● Tuning in to Internet radio
● Playing online games
● Downloading apps, maps, and files
● Refreshing apps to update info and feeds
● Uploading and backing up your files to your online storage account
To help you save on data usage, connect to a Wi‑Fi network whenever possible and set your
online accounts and emails to sync less frequently.
Keep Track of Your Data Usage
Monitor your data usage to help prevent going over your monthly data allowance.
Note: Data usage measured by your phone may differ from, and be less than, your actual data
usage.
