Problem 7

: I can’t send MMS

.

 

Answer:

 Depending on your service provider (wireless carrier) you may have a limit 

on the MMS file size. Contact your carrier for details on the maximum file size 

allotted. 

 

Problem 8

: Difficulty hearing during call. 

Answer 1

: Check your wireless signal to make sure you are in a strong signal area.  

Answer 2

: Adjust you call volume if using the speaker phone.  

Answer 3: If you are using hearing aids, confirm they are compatible with this FR150 

Flip Phone. Note that this device is M4/T3 rated. 

 

Problem 9

: I am hearing a popping sound momentarily during a call. 

Answer

: If you are moving or traveling from one location to another, the popping 

sound might indicate a network change.  

 

Problem 10

: Call does not connect. 

Answer 1

: Ensure the number dialed included the area code. If not, try re-dialing 

using the full 10-digit number (including the area code). 

Answer 2

: Are you in an area with poor wireless coverage? Try calling again from an 

area with stronger wireless signal.  

 

Problem 11

: I pressed the SOS button accidentally and called E9-1-1. 

Answer

: Don’t panic and don’t hang up. Explain to the emergency call dispatcher 

that you are safe, and the call was made by mistake. 

 

Problem 12:

 Can I change the SOS emergency call number to an emergency service 

outside of the U.S.? 

Answer:

 Currently, the emergency number function only works within the U.S. for 

911 services. ATEL USA and R3Di are not responsible for misplaced emergency calls to 

911 or any other emergency services.
