Personalization
G900 can be personalized by the user in one of the
following ways:
• Use of a computer-based utility application.
• Via Over the Air (OTA) configuration, initiated by
the Operator, user or IT helpdesk.
Alterations to the appearance of many of the
screens may be simply carried out through
changing the phone's Theme. New themes may be
loaded on to G900 from the Internet and other
sources.
Background and application shortcuts
Users can set a static image to be the background
'wallpaper' for the standby screen. The JPEG, GIF,
BMP, WBMP, MBM and PNG formats are
supported. Larger images will be resized to fit.
The application shortcut buttons may be
personalized by the user.
Screen saver
A 'screen saver' image can be displayed after a
period of inactivity. The user can switch this facility
on and off. Supported formats are the same as for
background images. Note that the use of animated
GIF increases power consumption.
When the screen saver is deactivated, G900 will
revert to the state it was in before the screen saver
was activated.
Picture phone book
The user may store a picture of each contact in the
Contacts application. When an incoming call is
received with a CLI (Calling Line Identification)
matching a phone contact, the contact's picture is
displayed together with the other information. The
contact's picture is also displayed when making a
call, or using the speed dial screen in picture view
mode. A copy of the picture is held in the Contacts
database. Therefore, the original picture may be
deleted or renamed without losing the copy stored
in Contacts.
Ringtones
The user can add as many ringtones as desired,
subject only to available file space. Ringtones may
be collected from many sources including MMS,
EMS, and a computer.
Any compatible audio file in the multimedia storage
(in the Phone memory or on a memory card)
including MP3 can be selected as a ringtone. G900
