High speed data call (High Speed Circuit Switched Data, HSCSD)

Glossary: High-speed data enables data transmission rates to a maximum of 43.2

kbps, which is three times faster than the standard data rates of the GSM network.
HSCSD is comparable to the speed of many computer modems that communicate
with today's fixed telephone networks.

For availability and subscription to high-speed data services, please contact your network
operator or service provider.

Note: Sending data in HSCSD mode may drain the phone’s battery faster than

normal voice or data calls, as the phone may send data more frequently to the
network.

Packet data (General Packet Radio Service, GPRS)

Glossary: Packet data, or General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), uses packet data

technology where information is sent in short bursts of data over the mobile
network. The benefit of sending data in packets is that the network is occupied
only when sending or receiving data. Because GPRS uses the network efficiently,
it allows for quick data connection set up and fast data transmission speeds.

Minimum settings needed to make a packet data connection
• You need to subscribe to the GPRS service. For availability and subscription to GPRS,

contact your network operator or service provider.
