Connectivity

Your device offers several options to connect to the internet, a corporate

intranet, or to another device or computer.

Fast downloading

High-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA, also called 3.5G, indicated by

) is a network service in UMTS networks and provides high-speed data

downloads. When HSDPA support in the device is activated and the device is

connected to a UMTS network that supports HSDPA, downloading data such

as messages, e-mail, and browser pages through the cellular network may

be faster. An active HSDPA connection is indicated by . The icon may vary

between regions.
You can activate or deactivate support for HSDPA in the device settings.
For availability and subscription to data connection services, contact your

service provider.
HSDPA only affects the download speed; sending data to the network, such

as messages and e-mail, is not affected.

Nokia PC Suite

You can install Nokia PC Suite from the CD-ROM or from the web. Nokia PC

Suite can be used with Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista. With

Nokia PC Suite, you can make backups, synchronise your device with a

compatible computer, move files between your device and a compatible

computer, or use your device as a modem.
For more information about Nokia PC Suite, see the Nokia PC Suite guide.

Data cable

USB

.

Using a USB data cable, you can connect your device to a compatible

computer. Install Nokia PC Suite to your computer before you use a cable

connection, as Nokia PC Suite automatically installs the USB data cable driver

to your computer. You can use the

Data transfer

mode without installing

the USB data cable drivers.
Connect the cable to the USB connector of the device.
To change the USB mode you normally use with the data cable, select

USB

mode

>

PC Suite

or

Data transfer

.

To set the device to ask for the mode each time you connect the USB data

cable to the device, select

Ask on connection

>

Yes

.

Transfer data from a computer
1. Make sure that you have selected USB as a connection type in the Manage

connections settings in Nokia PC Suite.

2. Insert a memory card to your device and connect the device to a

compatible computer with the USB data cable.

3. When the device asks which mode is used, select

Data transfer

. In this

mode, you can see your device as a removable hard drive in your

computer.

4. End the connection from the computer (for example, from an Unplug or

Eject Hardware wizard in Windows) to avoid damaging the memory card.

Infrared

Do not point the infrared (IR) beam at anyone's eye or allow it to interfere

with other IR devices. This device is a Class 1 laser product.
Use infrared to connect two devices and transfer data between them. With

infrared, you can transfer data such as business cards, calendar notes, and

media files with a compatible device.
1. Ensure that the infrared ports of the devices face each other. The

positioning of the devices is more important than the angle or distance.

2. Select

Menu

>

Connectivity

>

Infrared

to switch on infrared on your

device.

3. Switch on infrared on the other device and wait a few seconds until the

infrared connection is established.

4. Locate the desired file in an application or File manager, and select

Options

>

Send

>

Via infrared

.

If the data transfer is not started within 1 minute after the activation of the

infrared port, the connection is cancelled and must be started again.
All items received through infrared are placed in the Inbox folder in

Messaging.
Positioning the devices away from each other breaks the connection, but the

infrared light beam remains active on your device until it deactivates.

About Bluetooth

Bluetooth technology enables wireless connections between electronic

devices within a range of 10 metres (33 feet). A Bluetooth connection can be

used to send images, videos, text, business cards, calendar notes, or to

connect wirelessly to devices that use Bluetooth technology.
Since devices using Bluetooth technology communicate using radio waves,

your device and the other devices do not need to be in direct line-of-sight.

The two devices only need to be within a maximum of 10 metres of each

other, although the connection can be subject to interference from

obstructions such as walls or other electronic devices.
Several Bluetooth connections can be active at a time. For example, if your

device is connected to a headset, you can also transfer files to another

compatible device at the same time.
This device is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 2.0 supporting the

following profiles: Dial-up Networking Profile, Object Push Profile, File

Transfer Profile, Handsfree Profile, Headset Profile, Basic Imaging Profile, SIM

Access Profile, Generic Object Exchange Profile, Generic Access Profile,

Generic Audio/Video Distribution Profile, Advanced Audio Distribution

Profile, and Audio/ Video Remote Control Profile. To ensure interoperability

between other devices supporting Bluetooth technology, use Nokia

approved enhancements for this model. Check with the manufacturers of

other devices to determine their compatibility with this device.
Features using Bluetooth technology, or allowing such features to run in the

background while using other features, increase the demand on battery

power and reduce the battery life.
There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in some locations.

Check with your local authorities or service provider.

Send and receive data with Bluetooth

1. When you activate Bluetooth for the first time, you are asked to give a

name to your device. Give your device a unique name to make it easy to

recognise if there are several Bluetooth devices in the vicinity.

2. Select

Bluetooth

>

On

.

3. Select

My phone's visibility

>

Shown to all

or

Define period

. If you

select

Define period

, you need to define the time during which your

device is visible to others. Your device and the name you entered can now

be seen by other users with devices using Bluetooth technology.

4. Open the application where the item you want to send is stored.
5. Select the item, and select

Options

>

Send

>

Via Bluetooth

. The device

searches for other devices using Bluetooth technology within range and

lists them.

Tip: If you have sent data using Bluetooth before, a list of the

previous search results is displayed. To search for more Bluetooth

devices, select

More devices

.

6. Select the device with which you want to connect. If the other device

requires pairing before data can be transmitted, you are asked to enter

a passcode.

When the connection has been established,

Sending data

is shown.

The Sent folder in the Messaging application does not store messages sent

using Bluetooth connectivity.
To receive data using Bluetooth, select

Bluetooth

>

to receive data from a non-paired device or

Hidden

to receive data from a paired device only. When you receive data

through Bluetooth, a tone sounds, and you are asked if you want to accept

the message in which the data is included. If you accept, the message is

placed in the Inbox folder in the Messaging application.

Tip: You can access the files in the device or on the memory card using

a compatible accessory that supports the File Transfer Profile Client

service (for example, a laptop computer).

A Bluetooth connection is disconnected automatically after sending or

receiving data. Only Nokia PC Suite and some enhancements such as headsets

may maintain a connection even if not actively used.

Pair devices

Open the paired devices tab.
Before pairing, create your own passcode (1-16 digits), and agree with the

user of the other device to use the same code. Devices that do not have a

user interface have a fixed passcode. You need the passcode only when you

connect the devices for the first time. After pairing, it is possible to authorise

the connection. Pairing and authorising the connection makes connecting
