FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

• How can I install a Java application on this phone?
  Search the internet for Java files that have the extension .jar (these are executable Java files). Not all of them will work. Some are especially for Nokia or other brand phones. Transfer it to your phone's microSD card as you would normally transfer a file. From the FILE icon, locate your file and select it. Java will take over and ask you if you want to install it. Agree and the application will be installed for you. Enjoy!
• This phone has an accelerometer, what exactly is that?
  This is a built-in motion sensor that tracks when the electronic device has been tilted or swiveled. It is a feature most commonly used to change images in a photo viewer or to change tracks in an audio player.

How long should I charge the battery before first use?
Before you use the battery for the first time, please charge it for 12 hours.

Should I load MP3's or WAV music files into my phone to listen to?
It's a trade off really. With MP3's, you get lower audio quality, but because of its small file size you can fit more into memory. With WAV files, you get CD quality music, but on average, one WAV file is equivalent in size to ten MP3 files.

Great to hear that the phone comes with 2 batteries. What if I need more batteries, what should I do?
Simply contact our customer support department to order replacement accessories. Easy peasy.
