As with any mobile phone, if you are in
an area with no wireless coverage, your
Centro searches for a signal, which
consumes power. If you cannot move to
an area of better coverage, temporarily
turn off your phone. While your phone is
off, you can continue to use the
nonwireless features of your Centro.
•
Turn down the screen brightness (see
Adjusting the brightness).
•
Decrease the settings in Power
Preferences and turn off Beam Receive
(see Optimizing power settings).
•
Turn off the Bluetooth
®
feature if you’re
not using it. See Connecting to a

TIP
If Check SIM Card appears in the title bar,
see Inserting the SIM card and battery.
TIP
If a blank space appears in the title bar, the
phone is either searching for a network or
you’re outside a wireless coverage area. It
may take a few moments for the title bar to
display a network name. If you believe you are
in a wireless coverage area and this problem
persists, contact your network operator for
assistance.
