Common Questions

When I connect my handheld to the power adapter,

• Confirm that your handheld is firmly connected to the power adapter.

the indicator light will function normally.

My handheld is frozen.

On rare occasions your handheld may not respond when you press a button or tap the screen. In
this case, you need to reset your handheld. A soft reset tells your handheld to stop and start over
again. This does not affect any of the information or applications on your handheld.

If you had a network connection that was cut off, your handheld may appear to be

frozen for up to 30 seconds. Wait 30 seconds before performing a soft reset.

If a soft reset does not unfreeze your handheld, you need to perform a hard reset.

If your handheld continues to freeze after a reset, check your third-party applications for
incompatible applications.
