Connecting to Mobile Networks

When you buy your phone and sign up for service, your phone is conﬁgured

to use your provider’s mobile networks for voice calls and for transmitting

data.

Different locations may have different mobile networks available.

Initially, your phone is conﬁgured to use the fastest mobile network

available for data. You can also conﬁgure your phone to access a different

set of networks entirely, or to behave in speciﬁc ways when roaming.

The icons in the Status Bar indicate which kind of data network you’re

connected to and the network signal strength.

Connected to the 3G network (EVDO revA)

Connected to a 2G network (1x)

The more bars that are lit, the stronger the wireless signal

Connected to another wireless service provider’s network (roaming)

When connected to slower networks, you may want to postpone using

your phone for data-intensive tasks until you are connected to a faster

network again or ﬁnd a Wi-Fi network to connect to.

To disable data when roaming

You can prevent your phone from transmitting data over other carriers’

mobile networks when you leave an area that is covered by your carrier’s

networks. This is useful for controlling expenses if your cell plan doesn’t

include data roaming.

1. Touch the Apps Key

> Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile

networks > Data roaming.

2. Touch Data roaming to remove the checkmark from the box. With

Data roaming uncheckmarked, you can still transmit data with a Wi-Fi

connection.
