Your T-Mobile device is designed so you can set up many of its features to suit your preferences. Learn how in
this chapter:
The Settings Screens
All customization options are on the settings screens. There’s two types of settings screens:
•Customize device settings using the Jump Settings screens: From the Jump screen, open the menu
and select Settings to open these screens.
•Customize application-specific settings using the application Settings screens: From the Jump
screen, select any application (Web Browser, AOL Instant Messenger, Email, etc.). Then open the menu
and select Settings to open these screens.
We recommend you step through the device Settings screens and the application-specific Settings screens to
completely customize your device for your personal use. Use the tables below to guide you through the screens.
For more details on each screen, follow the links in the first column.
