Using the Multitasking Menu

This key (

) launches the Multitask menu that can be

activated from within any active window or page on the phone.
There is no need to stop what you are doing, if you quickly want
to jump out and activate another common feature.

The idea is to allow you to temporarily exit from your current
location to access a group of common functions such as: Call,
Messaging, Mobile Web, Music Player, Games, and End all. This
key keeps you from having to completely exit from your current
task or window, whether that be a text message, a web page, or
an active call, just to quickly do something else.

Here is an example:

You might be in the middle of typing up an email or text message,
when you suddenly realize that you need to make a quick call.
Typically, you would have to exit from your current message,
navigate to the Idle screen, make your call (page 27), after which
you would have to go back and re-create your message.

Using this same situation, all you would have to do is:

1.

Press

until the you see the Multitask menu screen.

2.

Touch Call, then enter your number and continue the call.

3.

Once you are done, hang up the call normally and you are

returned to the previous message screen.

Multitask Functions

Pressing the Multitasking key (

) on the right side of the

handset, allows you to choose from one of the following
functions:

Call: allows you to make a voice call while using the handset for other

tasks. If Music Player is active, it is muted during the call.

Displays when Bluetooth is activated.

Displays when a Bluetooth stereo headset has been
paired with the phone.

Displays when TTY device has been inserted.

Displays when browsing the web.
