This mirroring of information happens through over-the-air data
synchronization, or data “syncing”. Data syncing occurs in the
background and shouldn‟t ever get in your way. You‟ll know your
data is being synchronized when you see this icon in the status bar:
Because sending large amounts of data back and forth over the air
can take time and require considerable bandwidth, there are some
settings on the phone that allow you to control data sync.
Sync by application
To control synchronization for Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts, you
can do the following:
1. On the Home screen, then touch
and select Settings.
2. Select Accounts & sync. When any of the applications are
synchronizing, you will see the “sync” icon
. You will also see
the last time your data was synchronized.
3. By default, the personal information in Gmail, Calendar, and
Contacts will sync whenever you make a change or receive a new
message. You can change this behavior:
Auto-sync: When selected, Auto-sync will sync Gmail, Calendar, and
Contacts automatically, as you make changes or receive new
messages. When OFF, information will not be synced automatically,
although you can force sync by using the individual application
check boxes described below.
Gmail: Clear this check box to exclude Gmail from auto-sync.
Calendar: Clear this check box to exclude Calendar from auto-sync.
Contacts: Clear this check box to exclude Contacts from auto-sync.
4. Sync problems:
If you see this icon
to the left of the sync check box, then there
was a temporary problem with the data synchronization. Check your
data connection and try again later.
4.2 Bluetooth
You can use Bluetooth to send and receive calls using a headset or
hands-free car kit.
Turn on Bluetooth services
1. On the Home screen, then touch
and select Settings.
2. Select „Bluetooth‟ check box to turn on Bluetooth services.
3. When on, the Bluetooth icon appears in the status bar.
