Data Services FAQs
How will I know when my device is ready for data service?
Your user name (for example, bsmith0[email protected]) will be displayed when you access
Settings > About phone > Network > Current username
.
How do I sign in for the first time?
You are automatically signed in to access data services when you turn on your device.
How do I know when my device is connected to data services?
Your device automatically connects when you use data service or an incoming message arrives. You will
also see the or indicator.
Can I make calls and use data services at the same time?
You cannot use voice and data services simultaneously. If you receive a call while data service is active, your
device forwards the call to voicemail. You can place an outgoing call anytime, but it will interrupt any
in-progress data session.
When is my data connection active?
Your connection is active when data is being transferred. Outgoing calls are allowed; incoming calls go
directly to voicemail. When active, the or indicator animates on your device’s display screen.
When is my data connection dormant?
If your device receives no data for ten seconds, the connection goes dormant. When the connection is
dormant, you can make and receive voice calls. (The connection may become active again quickly.) If your
device receives no data for an extended period of time, the connection will terminate.
Can I sign out of data services?
You can sign out without turning off your device; however, you will not be able to browse the Web or use
other data services (unless you establish a Wi-Fi connection.) While signed out, you can still place or receive
phone calls, check voicemail, and use other voice services. You may sign in again at any time. To sign out,
go to
Settings > Wireless & networks and clear the Mobile network check box.
Note: You need to install HTC Sync before you can use your phone as a modem. See “HTC Sync” on page 65 for details.
Make sure that your device has an active connection with the Sprint 1xRTT data network or the Sprint 3G network.
