CHAPTER
Turning your phone on and off
When your phone is on, it is connected to
the network (provided you are in a
coverage area) so that you can make and
receive phone calls and use wireless
services, such as email, messaging, and
the web browser. During initial setup, your
phone is automatically turned on, so you
can use wireless services right away.
If you turn off your phone, you can still use
the organizer features such as Calendar
and Contacts, as well as the media
features such as Pocket Tunes and Pictures
& Videos. You might hear this referred to as
flight mode because you must turn your
phone off when you’re on a plane.
1 Wake up the screen.
2 Press and hold Power/End to turn on
your phone.
When your smartphone locates a signal
(provided you are in a coverage area),
your wireless service provider’s name
and the signal-strength icon
appear at the top of the screen,
indicating that you can use the phone
and Internet features (if supported by
the mobile network). If you’re outside a
coverage area, No Service appears in
the upper–left corner of the screen.
3 Press and hold Power/End again to
turn off your phone.
When your phone is off, Phone Off and
the phone-off icon appear at the top
of the Phone application screen and
your smartphone is not connected to
any mobile network. You can still use
the nonwireless features of your
smartphone, such as Contacts,
Calendar, Tasks, and Memos.
TIP
If the Ringer switch is set to Sound On,
you hear a series of tones when you turn your
phone on and off (see Silencing sounds
).
