GSM Services Usage
Call Barring Allows you to block certain types of incoming and outgoing calls on your

your device for a short period of time. (See “Using Call Barring (GSM)”
below for details.)
Caller ID Allows you to set caller ID options. (See “Caller ID” on page 199 for details.)
Call Waiting Allows you to enable or disable call waiting. (See “Call Waiting” on page
199 for details.)
Call Forwarding Allows you to divert incoming calls to another specified phone number.
Voice Mail and Text
Messages
Shows the text messages service center phone number and your voicemail
number for accessing voicemail messages when you are roaming on GSM
networks. (See “Voicemail and Text Messages” on page 199 for details.)
Location Setting Allows the GSM network to detect your current location via your device’s
built-in GPS chip. This is especially useful in emergencies.
