Network Selection
In order for the phone to make and receive phone calls, it must
register with one of the available networks.
Your phone automatically searches for the last network used. If,
for any reason, this network is unavailable, your phone will
attempt to register with a new network.
When your phone needs to register with a new network, it will
generate a sorted list of networks.The network list is sorted in the
following order:
• The Home network.
• Networks from a preferred list.
• A random list of other networks found above a certain signal
strength.
• All remaining networks in descending order of signal strength.
Any forbidden networks, stored in the SIM card, will not be
included in the sorted list.
Available Networks
When selected, this option will scan to see which networks are
operating in your current location. When the scan is complete,
press the
M key to scroll through the list. When you see a
network you wish to register with or store in your preferred list,
press the
O key. You will now enter the 'Register Now' and
'Make Preferred' sub-menu.
Register Now
Once selected, your phone will try to register with the selected
network. If the registration fails, your phone will try to register in
the normal way.
Make Preferred
Once selected, you will be asked where the selected network is to
be located in the preferred list.

These options determine how often your phone tries to register
with a network and how the attempt is made.

network.

Automatic Search Mode
In the automatic mode, the phone will try to register with the
first network in the sorted list. If this is successful, your phone will
display the network name and then enter the standby mode.
If registration is unsuccessful with one network in the list, your
phone will try the next listed network. If your phone fails to
register with any of the listed networks, it will start at the
beginning of the list after a preset period. The preset period is
determined by the 'Frequency Of Search' option.
