Selecting a network

Your phone will automatically detect your carrier/network settings when you insert a
new SIM card. However, you may prefer to manually select a network. This may be
a good idea when roaming.

Tip: When you are traveling, manually selecting a network may help to reduce
your roaming charges. Check with your home service provider for the network
offering the most competitive rates at your destination.

1. Open the Application menu and tap Settings > More... > Mobile networks >

Network operators.

2. Tap Select manually and your phone will search for available networks.
3. Select your preferred network from the list generated. You phone will attempt to

register on the selected network.

4. Tap Choose automatically to connect to the available network with the strongest

signal. This may lead to your phone jumping between networks when you move
around.

Note: Contact your service provider should you have any problems
obtaining voice mail and the text message service center numbers.
