Your Phone as a Network Device
Your telephone requires a service provider to send and receive calls. Your
phone is only one part of a system or “network” of devices that makes it
possible for you to send and receive calls, text messages, voice message, access
the Internet using the minibrowser, and to take advantage of all of the other
services and features available when your phone is used with your service
provider.
Your phone will always try your call using your home system, but if this is
unavailable, then the phone will use the preferred roaming system.
If you cannot roam, your call will not be connected and the icon is
displayed. In some service areas, an operator may come on the line asking you
how you would like to pay for the call.
To make all of the features available to you, your phone is designed by
Samsung and your service provider to allow your service provider to send (at
any time) a variety or information and messages to your phone. You may think
of this as an over the air service to your phone. During an over-the-air
programming session, your phone may display the following messages:
• “Search... Download” - this message means the phone is looking for the
data to download.
• “Progress Download” - this message means the phone is downloading
data. Do not turn your phone off while this is occurring. See the
CAUTION below.
• “Download Success” - this message means that your phone has been
successfully reprogrammed. You can now continue to use your phone as
you normally do.
• “Download Failed” - if this message appears contact your service
provider.
