WARNING:Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and chargers with your device.

Tip:Buy an extra battery as a spare for long trips or heavy data use. Visit www.palm.com to purchase batteries that are approved by Sprint and that are compatible with your device.

Charging the Battery

The battery comes with a sufficient charge to complete the setup process and activate your phone. After activation, we recommend charging your device for three and a half hours to give it a full charge. See “Maximizing Battery Life” on page 16 for tips on maximizing the life of your device’s battery.

  1. Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.
  2. Connect the charger cable to the charger jack on the bottom of the device. Make sure the arrow on the connector is facing up, toward your Treo device screen.
  3. To confirm that your device is charging, check the indicator light.

Tip:To see exactly how much power is left in your battery, tap the onscreen battery icon.

Using a Sprint Charger Adapter

If the connector on your Sprint-approved 1 Amp AC charger or vehicle charger doesn't fit into the connector on the bottom of your device, use the included Sprint charger adapter.

Warning:

Use only with 1 Amp AC chargers distributed by Sprint for your device. Using any unapproved AC charger may destroy the AC charger and cause a fire.

  1. Plug the AC charger into a power source.
  2. Connect the Sprint charger adapter to the charger jack on bottom of the Treo 700 P smart device.
  3. Connect the charger cable to the Sprint charger adapter.
  4. Charge your Treo 700p smart device as described earlier.

Sprint Charger Adapter

Battery Life

Battery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal strength, speakerphone use, and use of wireless features.

If the battery drains to the point where your device doesn't turn on, the device stores your information safely until you recharge the battery. To avoid draining the battery, we recommend that you charge and synchronize your device every day, especially if you use the wireless features of your phone often.

Note:

Using your device's phone has an effect on the battery life. You can extend the battery life by turning off your device's phone while using the organizer features. In any case, regular charging is recommended for optimal performance.

Maximizing Battery Life

You can increase the life of your Treo 700 P smart device battery by following a few easy guidelines. Remember that battery life depends on how you use your device.

  • Charge your device whenever you're at your desk, or charge it overnight each day. The Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is fully drained.
  • Your device's wireless features (phone, email, messaging, Web, and any applications that use a Sprint Power Vision SM connection, such as Sprint TV) and media features (camera, media players, eBooks, and games) consume more power than its organizer features. If you spend a lot of time using the wireless and media features, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.
  • If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your device for awhile, turn off your phone (see “Turning Your Device’s Phone On and Off” on page 55).

16 Section 1A: Device Setup

You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail (see “Call Forwarding” on page 73).

  • As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage, your device searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an area of better coverage, you may want to temporarily turn off your phone. While your phone is off, you can continue to use your device's nonwireless features.
  • Turn down the screen brightness (see “Adjusting the Brightness” on page 286).
  • Decrease the settings in Power Preferences and turn off Beam Receive (see "Optimizing Power Settings" on page 296).
  • Turn off the Bluetooth® feature if you are not using it (see “Connecting to a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device” on page 84).

Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer
♦ Synchronizing Information—The Basics

Why Connect My Device to My Computer?

You can enter or change information on your device or on your computer (using Palm® Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook for Windows), and then synchronize to automatically update the information in both places, so there's no need to enter it twice. We strongly recommend that you synchronize your device and your computer frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

Before you can synchronize, you need to install the desktop synchronization software on your computer and connect the sync cable to your computer.

System Requirements

Windows computers

● Windows 2000 or XP (or later)
- 32MB of available memory (RAM)
- 170MB of free hard disk space
CD drive
• Available USB port

Mac computers

• Mac OS X version 10.2 or later
•128MB of total memory (RAM)
- 190MB of free hard disk space
CD drive
• Available USB port

26 Section 1C: Connecting to Your Computer

Upgrading From Another Palm OS ® Device

Note:

If you are setting up your first Palm OS ® device, skip ahead to “Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer” on page 32.

You can transfer all compatible applications and information from your previous Palm OS ® device to your new Treo 700 P smart device. This includes your calendar events, contacts, memos, and tasks, as well as your application settings and any compatible third-party applications and files.

When you install Palm Desktop software, some third-party applications may be quarantined because they are not compatible with the Palm OS software version 5.4.9 on your new Treo device. Quarantined files are not installed on your device, nor are they deleted; these files are placed in a new folder on your computer:

C:\Program Files\Palm\\PalmOS5 Incompatible Apps. (On some systems, Palm may be replaced with palmOne.)

Note:

Some third-party utilities allow you to back up your old device's information onto an expansion card and then transfer the information to your Treo device. We do not recommend this method because any incompatible applications are also transferred.

  1. Calculate how much space your applications and information occupy on your previous Palm OS device:

■ From Applications view, open the menus 📄.
- Select Info on the App menu.
- At the bottom of the screen, select Size.

Section 1C: Connecting to Your Computer 27

- Look at the numbers on the Free Space line and subtract the number on the left from the number on the right to calculate the space used. For example, on the device shown here, 22.4 - 17.5 = 4.9. This means that 4.9MB of space is occupied on this device.

  1. If the space occupied on your old device is 60MB or less, go to step 3. If the space occupied is greater

than 60MB, then do any of the following to free up some space before you go to the next step:

Info Device: ▼ Phone Free Space: 17.5M of 22.4M Quick Tour 4K AboutBoxLib-abxL 17K Activation 80K ADPCMCodec 0K AglkglLib 45K AmrDecLib 56K AudioExt 0K Done Version Size Records

- Delete any third-party applications that you no longer use.

- Move large files, such as eBooks and images, to an expansion card.

- Move third-party applications to an expansion card.

- Purge old information in applications such as Calendar (Date Book), Tasks (To Do), and email. Refer to the documentation that came with your old device for instructions on these items.

  1. Synchronize your old device with your old desktop software to back up your information one last time.

  2. Connect your new smart device to your computer (see “Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer” on page 32).

  3. Install the new desktop synchronization software from the Palm Software Installation CD (see “Installing the Desktop Synchronization Software” on page 30).

Important:

Do not synchronize your new Treo 700p smart device with any previous versions of Palm Desktop software.

28 Section 1C: Connecting to Your Computer

  1. During the installation process, synchronize your new Treo device with your new desktop synchronization software as instructed. When prompted, do the following:

  2. Connect your new device to your computer (see “Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer” on page 32).

  3. Indicate whether you want to sync all applications or only PIM (personal information management) applications.
  4. Select a device name for your new device; be sure to select the same name that you used for your old device. (This is the name that appears in the User list in Palm Desktop software.)

  5. (Mac users only) If you have pictures on your old device, copy them from your old device to an expansion card or beam them to your new Treo device.

  6. If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset to remove its associated device name. (See the documentation that came with your old device for instructions on performing a hard reset.) Each device you synchronize with your computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize your old device with your computer, be sure to assign it a new name.

If any third-party applications are quarantined during the installation, do not manually install any of the quarantined files. Contact the third-party developer for software updates and information about compatibility with your new device.

Installing the Desktop Synchronization Software

Even if you already own a Palm OS device and have installed a previous version of the desktop software, you must install the software from the Palm Software Installation CD that comes with your Treo 700 P smart device.

Note:

If you are installing the software on a computer at work, make sure your company allows you to install new software. Contact your company's IT department for help.

  1. Close any applications that are currently running on your computer, including those that are minimized. Your computer must have all its resources available to install the software.
  2. Insert the Palm Software Installation CD into the CD drive on your computer.

PALM Treo 700p - Note: - 1

30 Section 1C: Connecting to Your Computer

  1. If you are installing the software on a Mac, double-click the CD icon on the desktop, and then double-click the PalmSoftware.pkg icon.
  2. When the installation wizard opens, follow the onscreen instructions. Please note these important points about the installation process:

- You can choose which desktop software you want to use for synchronization: Palm Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook (Windows only).

Note:

If you use Microsoft Outlook as your desktop email application, select Microsoft Outlook as your desktop synchronization software. If you select Microsoft Outlook, Palm Desktop software is still installed on your computer. When you enter information on your computer, be sure to enter your information in Microsoft Outlook, not in Palm Desktop software.

- When the install process prompts you to connect your device to your computer, go to “Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer” on page 32.

Tip:

If you want to sync information with applications other than Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook, you need to purchase additional third-party sync software. This sync software is sometimes called a conduit.

Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer

  1. Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.
  2. Plug the USB sync cable into an available USB port or a powered USB hub on your computer.
  3. With the sync button facing up, connect the sync cable to the bottom of your device. Do not press the sync button until you are instructed to do so.
  4. Connect the charger cable to the connector on the sync cable.

Sync Cable Sync Button

You are now ready to synchronize. Go to “Synchronizing Information—The Basics” on page 33.

32 Section 1C: Connecting to Your Computer

Synchronizing Information—The Basics

Synchronizing means that information that is entered or updated in one place (your device or your computer) is automatically updated in the other, so there's no need to enter the information twice. We strongly recommend that you synchronize your Treo device with your computer or corporate server frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in both locations.

Important:To sync your information, you must install the software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your Treo 700p smart device—even if you sync with Outlook or another third-party application. See “Installing the Desktop Synchronization Software” on page 30 for instructions.

Information from all the following applications is updated by default each time you synchronize your device with your desktop software:

PALM Treo 700p - Synchronizing Information—The Basics - 1

How each application syncs depends on your computer type and the desktop software you are using, as follows:

Computer Desktop What Syncs and Where
Windows Outlook●Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks sync with Outlook.●Pics&Videos syncs with Palm Desktop software.
Windows Palm Desktop software All applications sync with Palm Desktop.
Mac Palm Desktop software All applications sync with Palm Desktop.

Tip: For information on locating your pictures and videos on your computer, see “Viewing Pictures and Videos on Your Computer” on page 202.

  1. Connect your Treo 700p smart device to your computer as described in "Connecting Your Treo Device to Your Computer" on page 32.

Note: If you're performing initial setup, your device should already be connected to your computer.

  1. Press the sync button on the sync cable.

Moving Around the Device Screen

To move around the Treo™ 700p smart device screen, you can use the

5-way navigator for one-handed navigation, or you can tap items on the screen with the stylus. With use, you will find your own favorite way to scroll, highlight, and select menu items.

Note:

Some third-party applications may not work with the 5-way navigator, and you must use the stylus instead. In this guide, arrow icons are used to indicate directions on the 5-way navigator. These arrows are different from any onscreen scroll arrows or pick list arrows.

The 5-way 🔊 includes Right ▶, Left ◀, Up ▲, Down ▼, and Center 🔔 buttons.

Up Center Left Right Down

40 Section 2A: Moving Around on Your Smart Device

Scrolling Through Screens

As on a computer, you scroll on the Treo device to move from field to field or page to page, or in some cases to highlight an item or option in a list.

The behavior of the 5-way 📋 for list screens and entry screens varies by application. Here are some general scrolling tips that apply to most applications:

  • Press Right ▶, Left ◀, Up ▲, and Down ▼ on the 5-way 🔒 to move to the next field, button, or action in that direction.
    In list screens, press and hold Up ▲ or Down ▼ to scroll one screen at a time.

- Press Option 🔒 and Up ▲ or Down ▼ to scroll to the next page of information within the current record (see “Using the Keyboard” on page 45).

- When inside a text field, press Right ▶ or Left ▶ to scroll to the next character or word, and press Up ▲ or Down ▼ to scroll between lines.

You can also scroll using the stylus. Tap an onscreen scroll arrow, or drag the slider of an onscreen scroll bar.

Highlighting and Selecting Items

On most screens, one item—a button, a list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next action.

Use the 5-way 🔒 to move the highlight from one item to another before opening or selecting it.

Section 2A: Moving Around on Your Smart Device 41

The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:

- Border glow: When an onscreen button (OK, Cancel, etc.) or pick list is highlighted, the button acquires a glow around its border.

Colored background: When a phone number, text, an email address, or a Web link is highlighted, the item appears as white text against a colored background.

PALM Treo 700p - Highlighting and Selecting Items - 1

PALM Treo 700p - Highlighting and Selecting Items - 2

After highlighting an item, you can select or activate it by pressing Center 📄 or by tapping the item with the stylus.

Highlighting Text

You can use the stylus to highlight text on the screen.

  • Tap and drag the stylus across the text you want to highlight.
    • To highlight a word, double-tap it.
    • To highlight a paragraph, triple-tap it.

Accessing Command Buttons

In most applications, command buttons such as New, OK, and Details appear at the bottom of the screen. In many cases, you can jump directly to these buttons instead of scrolling to them. The 5-way 📋 controls vary according to the application, but here are some general rules that apply to most applications:

  • From a list screen, such as the Contacts list or Memos list, press Right ▶ or Down to jump to the first button.
  • From a screen where you create or edit entries, such as Edit Contacts, press Center 📋 to jump to the first button.

42 Section 2A: Moving Around on Your Smart Device

- From a dialog box, such as Edit Categories, press Up ▲, Down ▼, Right ▶ or Left to scroll to the buttons.

Selecting Menu Items

Many applications have menus to provide access to additional features. These menus are usually hidden from view, but they appear when you open the menus. To get the most out of your Treo device, it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the additional features available through the various application menus.

Selecting Options in a Pick List

A range of options is often presented in a type of menu called a pick list, which can be identified by a downward-pointing arrow. Pick lists are different from the application menus previously described. The application menus give you access to additional features, and pick lists enable you to select the contents for a particular field.

You can select an option from a pick list with the 5-way 📋 or the stylus:

- Use the 5-way 🔒 to highlight the pick list, and then press Center 🔒 to display the items in the list. Press Up ▲ and Down ▼ to highlight the item you want, and then press Center 🔒 to select the highlighted item. To exit the pick list without making a selection, press Left ◀ or Right ▶.

- Use your stylus to tap the pick list, and then tap the item you want from the list. To exit the pick list without making a selection, tap outside the list.

Sprint may preset favorite buttons on your device that are customized for their services. You can customize all favorite buttons except Voicemail—either delete and reassign existing favorite buttons or create new ones—to perform any of the supported tasks.

For each favorite button, you can also set up a Quick Key that gives you instant access to the phone number or corresponding screen. Quick Keys are optional and can be letters only, except for the Voicemail Quick Key, which is preprogrammed as 1. The letter equivalent for that key is E, so you cannot assign E as a Quick Key to another favorite button.

Tip:If you’re upgrading from a previous Treo device, your favorites might be transferred along with your other information. However, you may need to rearrange the order in which your favorite buttons appear by opening the Record menu and then selecting Edit Favorites Pages.

Using a Phone Headset

You can connect a phone headset for hands-free operation. If you need to use your device while driving and this is permitted in your area, we recommend using a phone headset (wired headset included) or a hands-free car kit (sold separately).

In addition to the stereo headset included with your Treo device, your device is compatible with the following types of headsets that are sold separately:

●Wired headsets with a 2.5mm connector (3-pin or 4-pin)
● Wireless headsets and car kits enabled with Bluetooth 1.1 or 1.2 wireless technology

Note:

For a list of compatible hands-free devices, go to www.palm.com/us/support/bluetooth/treo700p_bluetooth_compatibility.html.

Check the specifications for your headset or car kit to confirm compatibility. Please note that you cannot use stereo headphones with Bluetooth wireless technology to listen to music files.

Using a Wired Headset

Microphone Headset Button Speaker

When using the headset that is included with your device, you can press the headset button to perform any of the following tasks:

  • Answer an incoming call or a call waiting call.
  • Pick up a call that is on hold.
  • Switch between an active call and a call on hold (if the second call is incoming).
  • Join two calls in a conference (if the second call is outgoing).
  • Hang up a single call.

Note:

The headset designed for Treo™ 180, 270, and 300 devices is not compatible with your Treo 700 smart device. Standard headsets sold with other Sprint phones are compatible with your device. If you hear a headset buzz or experience poor microphone performance, your headset may be incompatible with your device.

Section 2B: Using Your Device's Phone Features 83

Connecting to a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device

Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth hands-free device such as a headset or car kit, you can communicate with that device whenever it is powered on and within range. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and range may be affected by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

Note:

In the documentation for the other device, a partnership might be referred to by a term such as trusted pair, trusted device, or pairing.

  1. Go to Applications 📄 and select Bluetooth 🔒, or tap the Bluetooth icon in the title bar.

  2. Select On.

  3. Enter a device name for your Treo device. This is the name that appears on the other Bluetooth device's screen when it connects to your Treo device.

  4. Prepare your hands-free device to accept a connection from another Bluetooth device. See the documentation that came with your hands-free device for instructions.

Bluetooth Bluetooth: On Off Bluetooth Wireless Technology is On Device Name: Palm Device Visibility: ▼ Visible Setup Devices Tips

  1. Select Setup Devices.
  2. Select Hands-free Setup.
  3. Follow the onscreen instructions to create a partnership with the specific hands-free device. When prompted, enter a passkey.

Setup Devices Hands-free Setup Configure a Bluetooth headset or car kit for your Treo. HotSync Setup Configure Bluetooth HotSync between your Treo and PC. Done Trusted Devices

Important:Some hands-free devices may have a built-in passkey; other devices may provide a screen where you enter the passkey. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your Treo device and your hands-free device. We recommend that you use a passkey of 16 digits, where possible, to improve the security of your Treo device. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered. If the hands-free device has a built-in passkey, see the device's documentation for the passkey.
  1. After you finish setting up the device, select Done to return to Applications view.

You can now use your Treo device with the Bluetooth hands-free device such as a headset or car kit.

Using a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device

If your Bluetooth hands-free device is turned on and within range (up to 30 feet in ideal conditions), the Treo device automatically routes all calls to the hands-free device instead of to the Treo device's earpiece. When a call comes in, your

device rings and the hands-free device beeps. Even if you answer the call on your Treo device, the call goes to the hands-free device.

The features available on your hands-free device vary by model. Check the documentation for your hands-free device for details on the supported features and how to use those features. Your Treo device can support the following features, provided that your hands-free device also supports them:

  • Answer an incoming call.
  • Answer a call waiting call.
  • Switch between an active call and a call on hold (if the second call is incoming).
  • Hang up a single call.

- Transfer an outgoing call from the Treo device's earpiece to the hands-free device.

- Ignore an incoming call.

- Redial the last number you called from the hands-free device.

- View a log of recently received, missed, and dialed calls, and dial numbers for these calls directly from the hands-free device.

Transfer speed-dial favorites and Contacts entries containing phone numbers from your Treo device to the hands-free device phone book, up to the maximum number of entries allowed in your hands-free device's phone book.

Tip:

Your Treo device transfers speed-dial favorites first, and then contacts in alphabetical order up to the maximum number of entries allowed in your hands-free device's phone book. So if you have important numbers that you want to show up in your hands-free device's phone book, be sure to create speed-dial favorites for them before you transfer the numbers.

TTY Use With Sprint PCS Service

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.

Your device is compatible with select TTY devices. You can connect a TTY/TDD machine, headset, or hands-free kit to your device through the headset jack while this mode is enabled. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device for connectivity information and to ensure that the TTY device supports digital wireless transmission.

When establishing your Sprint PCS Service, please call Sprint Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first pressing 711, and then pressing Talk. Then provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

WARNING 911 Emergency Calling

Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.

Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Your device is digital dual-band, which means you can make and receive calls while on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and you can also roam on other digital networks where Sprint has implemented roaming agreements with other carriers.

  • You can access voicemail while roaming.
  • Other features that are standard on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS Voice Command, and Sprint PCS Vision or Sprint Power Vision, may be available depending upon your roaming network.

Getting Messages From Your Corporate Microsoft Exchange Server Onto Your Device

Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync works with the Calendar, Contacts, and VersaMail applications on your device to directly access corporate groupware information on a Microsoft Exchange 2003 server. You can wirelessly synchronize information in these applications on the server from your device without using a desktop computer.

A Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account interacts with your desktop software as follows:

  • Microsoft Outlook: Information in Calendar, Contacts, and VersaMail on your device syncs with the server; it does not sync directly with Outlook on your desktop. However, if the server syncs with Outlook on your desktop, any information you enter in these applications on your device also appears in Outlook after the next server sync.
  • Palm® Desktop software: Information in Calendar, Contacts, and VersaMail on your device does not sync with and does not appear in Palm® Desktop software on your computer.

Information in other applications on your device, such as Tasks and Memos, continues to sync with and appear in the desktop software on your computer (Outlook or Palm Desktop).

For complete information on using a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account, see the User Guide for the VersaMail Application on the Palm Software Installation CD.

Using Bluetooth® Wireless Technology and Dial-Up Networking

In This Section

Connecting to Devices With Bluetooth® Wireless Technology
◆ Using Your Device as a Wireless Modem

Connecting to Devices With Bluetooth® Wireless Technology

With your Treo™ 700p smart device's built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can connect to a number of devices enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, such as a headset, car kit, printer, or GPS receiver, as well as to other phones and handhelds that are enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology. When you connect to another device, you create a partnership (also referred to by terms such as trusted pair, trusted device, or pairing) with that device. If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can also synchronize wirelessly or use your phone as a wireless modem.

You can create a list of Bluetooth devices that you trust to communicate with your Treo device. When communicating with trusted devices, your Treo device skips the discovery process and creates a secure link as long as the device is within range. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in ideal conditions. Performance and range are affected by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

When you configure a headset (see “Connecting to a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device” on page 84), the headset is automatically added to your trusted device list. Follow the steps in this section to add other devices to your trusted device list, such as your computer or GPS device enabled with Bluetooth technology.

Entering Basic Bluetooth Settings

To use your Treo device's Bluetooth functionality, you need to turn the Bluetooth feature on, and you may need to make your device either temporarily or permanently visible. You can also enter a name for your device.

174 Section 3F: Using Bluetooth® Wireless Technology and Dial-Up Networking

  1. Go to Applications 📋 and select Bluetooth

PALM Treo 700p - Entering Basic Bluetooth Settings - 1

  1. Select On.

  2. Enter a device name for your Treo device. (This is the name that appears on the other Bluetooth device's screen when it connects to your Treo device. You need to enter a device name only once.)

  3. Select the Visibility pick list and select one of the following:

Bluetooth Bluetooth: On Off Bluetooth Wireless Technology is On Device Name: Palm Device Visibility: ▼ Visible Setup Devices Tips

- Visible enables Bluetooth devices that are not on your Trusted Device list to request a connection with your device. Your device remains accessible to other devices until you turn this option off.

- Temporary enables Bluetooth devices that are not on your Trusted Device list to request a connection with your device during the next two minutes. Your device reverts to the Hidden setting and becomes inaccessible to other devices after two minutes.

Important:

For your Treo device to be visible to other Bluetooth devices, the Bluetooth setting must be set to On, and visibility must be set to Visible or Temporary. Your Treo device screen does not need to be turned on. If you are requesting a connection with another device, or if you are accepting a request from a trusted device, your Treo device can be set to any of the Visibility options.

- Hidden allows only devices with which you have previously formed a partnership to request a connection with your Treo device. New devices cannot request a connection.

Using Your Device as a Wireless Modem

Dial-up networking (DUN) is the feature that converts the phone on your Treo device into a modem so that you can access the Internet from your computer. You can set up DUN in one of two ways:

  • If you have signed up on a Sprint Power Vision with Phone as Modem plan, you can use the Sprint Connection Manager software on your computer and connect your Treo device to your computer using the USB sync cable; see “Using Your Device’s Phone as a Modem” on page 118 for information.
  • If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can set up your Treo device as a wireless modem using the built-in Bluetooth technology.

This section describes the process of setting up your device as a wireless modem using the built-in Bluetooth technology.

Creating a DUN Connection Using Bluetooth Technology

To configure DUN using Bluetooth technology, complete the following procedures:

  • “Creating a Partnership Between Your Device and Your Computer” on page 179.
  • “Setting Up Your Computer for a Bluetooth DUN Connection” on page 180.
  • “Accessing the Internet Using a Bluetooth DUN Connection” on page 180.

178 Section 3F: Using Bluetooth® Wireless Technology and Dial-Up Networking

Setting Up Your Computer for a Bluetooth DUN Connection

Dial-up networking must be enabled or installed on your computer. Follow the instructions from the manufacturer of your Bluetooth adapter to enable DUN. Your wireless service provider may provide customized software programs that walk you through the DUN setup process. Check with your wireless service provider to see if such a program is available.

Accessing the Internet Using a Bluetooth DUN Connection

The steps for accessing the Internet on your computer may vary depending on your operating system and how Bluetooth wireless technology is set up on your computer—for example, if it is built in versus if you are using a wireless Bluetooth adapter. If the following procedure does not work with your computer, check your computer’s documentation for how to set up Bluetooth technology to access the Internet using a DUN connection.

Note:

You may need to use a virtual private network (VPN) to access corporate email. Check with your system administrator for more information.

Before you begin, verify that DUN is enabled on both your computer and your device.

180 Section 3F: Using Bluetooth® Wireless Technology and Dial-Up Networking

  1. Open the Bluetooth screen on your computer and look for the option for paired devices. Check your computer's documentation for how to open this screen and for the name of the paired devices option.

  2. Double-click the icon or option representing your device. Your computer connects to your device and shows that DUN services are available.

  3. Double-click the DUN icon.

  4. Enter the following in the Dial field: #777. You do not need to enter anything in the User Name or Password field.

  5. Click Dial. Once the connection is successfully established, you can browse the Internet on your computer or download your email.

Tip:

You may be asked if you want to remember this dial text for this connection. We recommend that you choose to remember the dial text to avoid errors and the inconvenience of entering it for every session.

To verify that you are connected, look for a network connection icon in the taskbar at the bottom of your computer screen. To check the status of the connection, right-click the Bluetooth network icon.

Section 3F: Using Bluetooth® Wireless Technology and Dial-Up Networking 181

Note:

When a Bluetooth DUN connection is active, you cannot form a partnership with another device or discover another device. You also cannot send or receive information wirelessly directly from your device, browse the Web, or send or receive email messages, and any scheduled automatic email retrievals do not take place. Incoming calls are automatically sent to voicemail. You can make outgoing calls, but the DUN session will be terminated when you place the call.

If you have several appointments to enter, it's more efficient to use Palm Desktop software or MicrosoftOutlook on your computer and then synchronize information between the Treo 700 smart device and your computer. For more information, see “Synchronizing Information—The Basics” on page 33.

Note:

If you use Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®, your calendar information (as well as email and contacts information) synchronizes directly with your company's Exchange server. You retrieve calendar (and email and contacts) updates from the server; they are not updated when you synchronize directly with your computer. See “Getting Messages From Your Corporate Microsoft Exchange Server Onto Your Device” on page 141.

Displaying Your Calendar

226 Section 5A: Using Your Device's Organizer Features

Time Zones and Events

Here are some important points to keep in mind when assigning a time zone to an event:

  • Palm Desktop software does not recognize time zones. If you sync with Palm Desktop software, you can add time zones to your events, but the start and end times do not change in Palm Desktop if you go to a different time zone.
  • If you use Microsoft Outlook, you can use the time zone feature, but you must install the conduit that came with your Treo 700p smart device (that is, you must install the desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD and select to sync with Outlook) or a subsequent update on all the computers you synchronize your device with. Chapura PocketMirror and other earlier Microsoft Outlook conduits do not support time zones.

- To automatically assign a time zone to your events, open the Options menu, select Preferences, and check the New events use time zones box. All your new events will be assigned to your local time zone, and you can change this setting for individual events. In addition, if you sync with Outlook and you select the time zone option on the Calendar conduit sync screen, then time zones will sync for any new events you create in Outlook. Time zone settings are not added to any events that you created before you set these time zone settings.

- If you want your events with time zones to stay at the same time in Calendar, regardless of the time zone you are in, uncheck the Get time zone from mobile network box on the Date & Time Preferences screen. If the box is checked, the event time shifts if you travel to a different time zone. See “Setting the Date and Time” on page 294 for information.

Adding an Alarm to an Event

  1. In Calendar, select the event.
  2. Select Details.

Number of Time Units Event Details Time: 10:00 am - 11:00 am Date: Sun 2/11/07 Alarm: 30 Minutes Location: Conference room B Category: Unfiled Repeat: None Private: OK Cancel Delete... Type of Time Units

Note:

The alarm for untimed events (see “Creating an Untimed Event” on page 228) is defined by minutes, days, or hours before midnight of the date of the event.

4. Select OK.

When an alarm goes off, an alert is also displayed on the Alert screen. Select an alert's description to jump to that item, or check the box to clear that alert. See "Viewing and Using the Alert Screen" on page 103 for more information.

Creating an Untimed Event

An untimed event is an event that does not occur at a particular time of day—for example, a holiday or anniversary.

228 Section 5A: Using Your Device's Organizer Features

  1. Press Calendar 📄 until you are in Day view.
  2. Press Left ◀ or Right ▶ to go to the date of the event.

Installing Applications

Your Treo™ 700p smart device comes with several built-in and ready-to-use applications. You can also install additional applications, such as business software, games, and more. The Palm Software Installation CD includes several bonus software applications, and you can purchase other third-party Palm OS® applications as well. To learn about applications you can add to your device, go to www.palm.com/mytreo700pSprint.

The instructions in this section tell you how to install basic PRC (Palm OS application) and PDB (Palm OS database) files on your Treo device. Some Palm OS software uses an installer or wizard to guide you through the process. For details, consult the documentation that came with the software.

Installing Bonus Software From the CD

The Palm Software Installation CD includes several bonus software applications that you can install on your device. You can install these applications when you install the desktop software, or you can install them later.

  1. Insert the Palm Software Installation CD into the CD drive on your computer.
  2. Click Install bonus software.
  3. Click the name of the application you want to install.
  4. Click Install (on the right side of the screen).

You can use the Web browser on your device to install Palm OS files (PRC or PDB) directly from the Internet. When you wirelessly download a PRC or PDB file, it is automatically installed on your device. If a file is compressed (ZIP or SIT files), you need to download it to your computer and expand the file before installing it on your device.

  1. Open the Web browser (see "Viewing a Web Page" on page 160).
  2. Go to the page that contains the link to the application you want to download.
  3. Press Left ◀ or Right ▶ to highlight the link to the file, and then press Center to initiate the download process.
  4. Follow the onscreen instructions to accept and install the application.

Installing Applications From a Computer

To install an application from a computer, you must first install Palm ® Desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your Treo 700 smart device.

When you download an application to your computer, it is probably in a compressed format such as a ZIP or SIT file. If the file is compressed, you need to use a decompression utility on your computer, such as WinZip or Allume StuffIt Expander, before you install the application on your device.

  1. On a Windows computer, drag and drop the application file(s) onto the Palm™ Quick Install icon on the Windows desktop.

On a Mac computer, drag and drop the application file(s) onto the Send To Handheld droplet in the Palm folder.

Using Connection Settings

Connecting to a Virtual Private Network

If you want to use your Treo device to access your corporate email account or other files on your corporate server, you may need to set up a virtual private network (VPN) on your device. A VPN enables you to log in to your corporate server through the company's firewall (security layer). You need a VPN on your device if your device and your company's server are located on opposite sides of the firewall.

Check with your company's system administrator to see if a VPN is required for accessing the corporate server. If a VPN is necessary, you must purchase and install a third-party VPN client on your device to use this feature.

Note:

For information about third-party VPN client software, see the Palm Software Installation CD or visit www.palm.com/mytreo700pSprint.

  1. Install your third-party VPN client. See “Installing Applications” on page 255 for details.
  2. Go to Applications 📋 and select Prefs 📁.

Trouble Upgrading?

If you experience problems with your Treo™ 700p smart device after performing the upgrade steps described in “Upgrading From Another Palm OS® Device” on page 27, you may have incompatible applications or settings that were not quarantined during the installation process. These files reside in the Backup subfolder of your user folder. Incompatible applications or settings can lead to numerous issues, including system resets and freezes. If you experience problems after upgrading, follow these steps to correct the problem:

  1. Locate your user folder on your computer:

- Windows: If your device name is one word, your user folder name is the first six characters of your device name. If your device name is two words, your user folder name consists of the first six characters of the second word of your device name, followed by the first letter of the first word. For example, if your device name is John Smith, your user folder is named SmithJ. Your user folder is usually located inside one of the following folders:

C:\Program Files\Palm\

C:\Program Files\palmOne\

C:\Program Files\Handspring\

■ Mac: Your user folder name is the same as your device name and is usually found in this location:

: Users: : Documents: Palm: Users.

  1. Make a copy of your user folder and store it in a safe place.

- Windows: Copy the folder, and then paste it to your Windows desktop.

312 Section 7A: Help

- Mac: Select the folder, press and hold the Option key, and then drag the folder to your Mac desktop.

  1. Confirm that the copy of your user folder includes a subfolder named Backup, and that all the files in the original Backup subfolder are also in the copy of the Backup subfolder.
  2. Delete all files from the original Backup subfolder.
  3. Perform a hard reset on your device. See “Resetting Your Treo 700P Smart Device” on page 314 for instructions.
  4. Sync your Treo 700 P smart device with your new desktop software; be sure to select your existing device name from the User list.
  5. Reinstall third-party applications from the copy of your Backup subfolder (see “Installing Applications” on page 255 for instructions). We recommend that you install one application at a time to help you identify the application that caused the problem. We also recommend that you do not install any applications that do any of the following:

■ Modify phone functions, such as ringtones, dialing, or caller ID.
- Replace organizer applications, such as Contacts or Calendar.
- Set data connection features, such as activating or ending data connections.
■Provide Web-clipping applications or files, such as PQA files.
■Provide instant messaging features.

If you want to continue using these types of applications, please contact the third-party developer for software updates and information about compatibility with your Treo 700 P smart device.

Resetting Your Treo 700 P Smart Device

Soft Reset

Performing a soft reset is similar to restarting a computer. If your Treo 700p smart device is not responding or you're having trouble synchronizing with your computer, a soft reset may help. All your information is retained when you perform a soft reset.

  1. Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward to remove it from your Treo 700p smart device.
  2. Use the tip of the stylus to gently press the reset button on the back of your Treo 700 P smart device.

314 Section 7A: Help

System Reset

A system reset, also called a safe or warm reset, can be useful if your device loops or freezes during a soft reset. Performing a system reset allows you to get out of the loop and restores limited functionality to your device in order to uninstall a third-party application that's causing the problem. Note that after a system reset, you must perform a soft reset to restore full functionality, including the wireless features, to your device.

  1. Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward to remove it from your Treo 700 smart device.
  2. While pressing and holding Up ▲ on the 5-way navigator 📋, use the tip of the stylus to gently press the reset button on the back of your device.
  3. When the logo screen appears, release Up ▲.
  4. Delete the third-party application that you suspect is causing the problem.
  5. Perform a soft reset.

Hard Reset

A hard reset erases all information and third-party software on your Treo 700 P smart device. Never perform a hard reset without first trying a soft and a system reset. You can restore previously synchronized information the next time you synchronize.

Note:

Your device might not re-establish a Sprint PCS Vision® session after a hard reset. To manually establish a new Sprint PCS Vision session, open the Web browser to access a Web site.

A hard reset can tell you if a problem stems from your Treo 700 smart device or from an application installed on it. If you do not experience the problem after you perform a hard reset, the problem is related to software you installed. See “Third-Party Applications” on page 347 for suggestions on diagnosing third-party software issues.

Note:

Some third-party applications do not create a backup on your computer when you synchronize. If you perform a hard reset, you may lose data in these applications and you will need to reinstall these applications after the hard reset. Please contact the developer to find out which information is backed up during synchronization.

  1. Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward to remove it from your Treo 700p smart device.
  2. While pressing and holding Power/End 📋, use the tip of the stylus to gently press the reset button on the back of your Treo 700p smart device.
  3. Continue pressing and holding Power/End 📋. When the logo screen appears, release Power/End 📋
  4. When the "Erase all data?" prompt appears, press Up ▲ to confirm the hard reset.

Note:

If you do not see the “Erase all data?” message, the hard reset was not performed. Please retry the above steps, making sure to hold Power/End until the logo screen appears.

Replacing the Battery

Your Treo 700 P smart device comes with a replaceable battery. Be sure to use a battery that is approved by Sprint and that is compatible with your device. Failure to use the proper battery may result in a risk of personal injury or product damage, and it will void your device warranty.

  1. Press Power/End to turn off the screen.
  2. Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward to remove it from your Treo 700 smart device.
  3. Place a finger in the notch next to the battery and lift the battery up at a 45-degree angle to remove it from the compartment.

  3. Connect your device to the charger or sync cable.
  4. Wait for your Treo 700 P smart device to turn on, and then enable the network time or set the date and time when prompted.

Desktop Software Installation

If you are having trouble installing the desktop software, you may have the wrong version of the software or some of your computer's resources may be unavailable. Follow these steps to retry the installation:

Note:

The Palm Software Installation CD installs software that enables you to synchronize using Palm® Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook for Windows. If you want to synchronize using a different personal information manager (PIM), you must install a third-party solution. Contact the PIM's author or vendor to learn whether desktop software is available for your new Treo device.

  1. Make sure your computer profile includes administrator rights to install software. In large organizations, these are usually granted by the system administrator.
  2. Restart your computer.
  3. Quit any active applications, including virus scanners and Internet security applications.
  4. Make sure you're installing the software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your new Treo 700 smart device. (Other versions of the desktop software may not work with this device.)
  5. Insert the Palm Software Installation CD to restart the installation.

Important:

Always use the same language for your Treo device, your operating system, and your desktop software. Otherwise, you may lose information or have difficulty with synchronization. Support is not provided for mismatched language setups.

Phone

Signal Strength Is Weak

Become familiar with low coverage areas where you live, commute, work, and play. Then you will know when to expect signal strength issues.

  • If you're standing, move about 10 feet in any direction.
  • In a building, move near a window. Open any metal blinds.
  • In a building, move outdoors or to a more open area.
    ●Outdoors, move away from large buildings, trees, or electrical wires.
  • In a vehicle, move your Treo device so that it's level with a window.

My Treo Device Won't Connect to the Mobile Network

  • Try the suggestions in the preceding section for weak signals.
  • Turn off your phone and turn it on again (see “Turning Your Device’s Phone On and Off” on page 55).
  • Perform a soft reset (see "Soft Reset" on page 314).
  • If you have an active DUN session (that is, you are using your device's phone as a modem), terminate the session (see “Using Your Device’s Phone as a Modem” on page 118 or “Using Your Device as a Wireless Modem” on page 173).

The Other Person Hears an Echo

- Try decreasing the volume on your Treo device to avoid coupling or feedback on the other person's end. This applies to both the speakerphone and the earpiece.

  • Position the earpiece closer to your ear to prevent sound leaking back into the microphone. Keep your hand away from the microphone hole, which is on the bottom right side of the phone.
  • If you're using the speakerphone feature with your device lying on a flat surface, try turning the device face down (screen facing the surface).

I Hear My Own Voice Echo

Ask the person on the other end of the call to turn down the volume on his or her phone or to hold the phone closer to his or her ear.

My Voice Is Too Quiet on the Other End

  • Be sure to position the bottom of the Treo device, or the hands-free microphone, close to your mouth.
  • Check the signal-strength indicator. If the signal is weak, try to find an area with better coverage.

I Hear Static or Interference

Check the signal-strength indicator. If the signal is weak, try to find an area with better coverage.

If you're using a hands-free device enabled with Bluetooth® wireless technology, try the following:

  • Move your Treo device closer to the hands-free device. Audio quality degrades as the distance between your Treo device and hands-free device increases. The effective range for a hands-free device varies among manufacturers.

- Confirm that no obstructions, including your body, are between the Treo device and your hands-free device. For example, move your Treo device to the same side of your body as your hands-free device.

My Device Hangs Up When I Hold It to My Ear

You may be accidentally pressing the onscreen Hang Up All button with your cheek. Try holding the device so that your face doesn't press against the screen. If this is not convenient, you may want to disable the screen's touch-sensitive feature during active calls (see “Locking Your Screen” on page 299).

My Device Seems to Turn Off by Itself

If a system error and reset occur, the Treo device automatically turns the phone on if it was on before the reset. However, if the device can't determine if your phone was on before the reset, the phone does not automatically turn on (see "Turning Your Device's Phone On and Off" on page 55). If the problem persists and you're using third-party applications, see "Third-Party Applications" on page 347 for additional suggestions.

My Device Makes or Answers Calls When It's in a Bag or Pocket

Items in your bag or pocket may be pressing the onscreen Answer button or otherwise activating screen items. If this happens, be sure to press

Power/End 📋 to turn off the screen before placing it in your briefcase or pocket. You may also want to disable the screen’s touch-sensitive feature during incoming calls (see “Locking Your Screen” on page 299).

If you are using a Bluetooth hands-free device with your Treo device, you may have turned the auto-answer feature on in Handsfree Preferences. For information, see “Setting Up Your Hands-Free Device to Automatically Answer Calls” on page 87.

Hands-Free Devices

I Can't Make or Receive Calls Using a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device

Confirm all of the following:

The device with Bluetooth® wireless technology is compatible with your Treo device. Go to http://www.palm.com/us/support/bluetooth/treo700p_bluetooth_compatibility.html for a list of compatible devices.
- Go to Applications 📁 and select Bluetooth ⚙. Make sure the Bluetooth setting is turned on in the Bluetooth application.
- You have already formed a partnership between your Treo device and your hands-free device, and the hands-free device appears in the Trusted Devices list (see “Connecting to a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device” on page 84).
- Your hands-free device is charged and turned on.
- Your Treo device is within range of the hands-free device.

Note:

Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and range can be affected by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

I Hear Static or Interference When Using My Hands-Free Device

  • Try moving your Treo device closer to the hands-free device. Audio quality degrades as the distance between your Treo device and hands-free device increases. The effective range for a hands-free device varies among manufacturers.
  • Confirm that no obstructions, including your body, are between the Treo device and your hands-free device.

Some Features of My Hands-Free Device Don't Work With My Treo Device

  • Check the Palm compatibility list at http://www.palm.com/us/support/bluetooth/treo700p_bluetooth_compatibility.html to ensure that your device is compatible.
  • Not all hands-free features work with every hands-free device. Check the documentation that came with your hands-free device or the manufacturer's Web site for feature-compatibility information specific to your device.

Email

Note:

The following troubleshooting tips apply to the VersaMail® application only. If you are using Sprint PCS Business Connection SM Personal Edition or GoodLink TM as your email application, refer to the documentation included with those applications for troubleshooting tips.

I Have Problems Using My Account

Occasionally you may experience problems using an email account after you set it up. If you followed the account setup procedure and are experiencing problems using the account, verify that the account complies with your email provider's requirements by following these steps:

  • Verify both your password and your username for your email account.
  • Some wireless service providers require you to be on their network to use your email account. If this is the case, be sure to use your provider's network as the connection type for the account.
    Some email service providers have other requirements specific to their service. For example, Yahoo! requires you to pay for a POP account in order to

download email messages from your Yahoo! account to your device. Check with your service provider to see if any provider-specific requirements exist.

- Service provider settings change frequently. If your email account was working but you are currently experiencing problems, check with your wireless or email service provider to see if any of the account settings have changed.

I Have Problems Sending and Receiving Email

Short periods of time when email is unavailable are common due to server problems or poor wireless coverage. If you have problems sending or receiving mail for an extended period of time, check with your ISP or email service provider to verify that the service is working properly, and check with Sprint Customer Service for outage information in your area.

Auto Sync Is Not Working

If an Auto Sync operation is occurring and you turn your device's phone off or the connection to your email service provider is disconnected, the Auto Sync operation fails. If a scheduled Auto Sync doesn't take place or starts but does not finish, make sure your device's phone is on and that your data connection to your email service provider has not been interrupted.

I Have Problems Sending Email

If you are able to receive email messages but cannot send them, try these steps, in turn:

- Make sure your ISP or email provider allows you to access email on a wireless device. Several providers, like Hotmail, do not offer this option at all; other providers require an upgrade to access email on a wireless device.

- Turn on ESMTP. Many services require authenticated access, or ESMTP, to use their SMTP servers. See the User Guide for the VersaMail Application on the Palm Software Installation CD for information on turning ESMTP on.

- Enter the name of a different outgoing mail server for sending mail. Many ISPs, such as cable companies, require that you have an Internet connection to their network to send email through their servers. In this case, you can almost always receive email from these accounts, but if you want to send email, you must send it through another server. Check with your email service provider for the correct outgoing mail server name.

I Have Problems Synchronizing Messages on My Device With Messages on My Computer

Make sure you have chosen the same settings for the account on both your device and your computer. For example, if the account is set up on your device to use the POP protocol, check HotSync manager on your computer to make sure that POP is selected as the protocol for that account.

My vCard or vCal Email Attachment Isn't Forwarding Correctly

Palm Desktop software provides several features that work with email client software on a Windows computer. For these features to work correctly, the email client software must be properly set up. Follow these steps to check the settings:

  1. Click Start on your computer, and then select Settings.
  2. Select Control Panel.
  3. Select Internet Options, and then click the Programs tab.
  4. Make sure that the email field is set to the correct email client software.

  5. Click OK.

  6. Start the email client software and make sure it is configured as the default MAPI client. (Consult the documentation for your desktop email application for more information.)

After I Get Messages, Either Manually or Through Auto Sync, Messages Disappear From My Inbox

If you have an account that uses Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync ® , when you perform an Auto Sync, the last three days' worth of email messages are downloaded from your mail server to your Inbox. All messages older than three days are deleted from your Inbox; they are not deleted on the server, however.

You can change the setting in VersaMail ® preferences to download fewer than three days' worth of messages (in which case, more-recent messages are deleted from your Inbox), or to download all messages regardless of the date (in which case all messages continue to appear in your Inbox).

I Am Using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, But Email Messages, Calendar Events, and Contacts Information Are Not Downloading to My Device

Check with your system administrator to obtain the name of the mail server that offers you wireless access to the corporate mail system. If you cannot obtain the name of this server (some companies do not give it out, because they do not want wireless access to their servers), you cannot synchronize email messages, Calendar events, and Contacts information with the server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync.

I Can't Tell If Data Services Are Available

When your phone is on, icons appear in the title bar in the Main view of the Phone application to indicate whether data services are available and whether a data connection is active. See “Checking Signal Strength and Phone Status” on page 100 for a description of the icons that indicate that data services are available.

If your phone is on and you do not see any of the data icons, then data services are not available in your current location.

I Can't Send or Receive SMS Text Messages

  • Make sure your phone is turned on (see “Turning Your Device’s Phone On and Off” on page 55).
  • Contact Sprint to verify that your plan includes SMS messaging services, that these services have been correctly activated, and that they are available at your location. Sprint should be able to tell you if messaging services have been experiencing transmission delays. Delays can also occur between the time that a message is sent and the time it is received.
  • Verify with the recipient that the receiving device can handle text messages.
  • If a text message arrives but does not display an alert, perform a soft reset (see “Soft Reset” on page 314).

I Can't Send or Receive Sprint PCS® Picture Mail Messages

- Make sure your phone is turned on (see “Turning Your Device’s Phone On and Off” on page 55).

  • Contact Sprint to verify that your plan includes Sprint PCS Picture Mail messaging services, that these services have been correctly activated, and that they are available at your location. Sprint should be able to tell you if messaging services have been experiencing transmission delays. Delays can also occur between the time that a message is sent and the time it is received.
    Make sure that the Sprint PCS Vision icon or Sprint Power Vision SM icon

or ≈ appears in the title bar of the Main view of the Phone application. If you do not see one of these icons, data services are not available in your current location and you cannot exchange Picture Mail messages.

  • Verify with the recipient that the receiving device can handle Picture Mail messages.
  • If you have an active DUN session (that is, you are using your device's phone as a modem), terminate the session (see “Using Your Device’s Phone as a Modem” on page 118 or “Using Your Device as a Wireless Modem” on page 173).
  • If a Picture Mail message arrives but does not display an alert, perform a soft reset (see “Soft Reset” on page 314).

I Can't Tell If Data Services Are Available

When your phone is on, icons appear in the title bar in the Main view of the Phone application to indicate whether data services are available and whether a data connection is active. See “Checking Signal Strength and Phone Status” on page 100 for a description of the icons that indicate that data services are available.

If your phone is on and you do not see any of the data icons, then data services are not available in your current location.

The Device Won't Connect to the Internet

Your Treo 700 P smart device supports Sprint PCS Vision and Sprint Power Vision, two ways to connect to the Internet that are persistent and are faster and more reliable than a regular dial-up connection. All Sprint customers can connect to the Internet, but to avoid high per-minute charges, we recommend that you subscribe to a Sprint PCS Vision plan. Contact Sprint to verify that your subscription plan includes Sprint PCS Vision services and that these services have been correctly activated, and to confirm your username and password. Sprint should also be able to tell you if there are any outages in your area.

  1. Press and hold Power/End to turn off your phone. Then press and hold Power/End again to turn your phone back on.

  2. Press Phone 📄 and look for either the Sprint PCS Vision icon 📋 or Sprint Power Vision icon 📋 or 📋 in the title bar of the Main view.

  3. If you see one of these icons, you are in a data coverage area. Try connecting to the Internet again. If you do not see one of these icons, go to Applications ☐, select Prefs, and continue with the following steps.

  4. Select Network.
  5. Select the Service pick list and select PCS Vision. (If PCS Vision does not appear in the list, call Sprint for assistance.)
  6. Select Connect.
  7. If the connection is successful, go to the Web browser. If you still can't make a connection, perform a soft reset (see "Soft Reset" on page 314).

  10. Your subscription plan includes high-speed data services.

  11. Data services have been activated on your account.
  12. Data coverage is available in your location.
    There are no data service outages in your location.

I Can't Access a Web Page

First, make sure you have Internet access: Open the Web browser to see if you can view a Web page you’ve successfully viewed before. To ensure that you’re viewing the page directly from the Internet, open the menus ☐, select Go, and then select Refresh.

If you can view the page after you refresh it but you still can't access the page you were originally trying to view, the page may contain elements that are not

supported by the Web browser. These include Flash, Shockwave, VBScript, WMLScript, and other plug-ins.

Some Web sites use a redirector to their true home page. If the Web browser on your device can't follow the redirect, try using a desktop browser to see the landing page of the redirector, and then enter that address in the Web browser on your device.

It Takes a Long Time for a Web Page to Load

If it is taking longer than usual to load Web pages, you may have traveled from a high-speed Sprint Power Vision service area to a Sprint PCS Vision service area. Although Sprint PCS Vision data service is considered a high-speed data service, it can seem slow if you are used to Sprint Power Vision speed.

  1. Press Phone 📄 and look for the Sprint PCS Vision icon 🎯 or Sprint Power Vision icon 🌐 in the title bar of the Main view.

  2. If you see the Sprint Power Vision icon or, there may be a problem with the Web site you are trying to access. Try opening a different Web page to see if the problem persists.

I Get a Message That There Is an Error Creating a DUN Connection With My Treo Device

- Re-create the partnership between your Treo 700 P smart device and your computer (see “Accepting a Connection From Another Bluetooth Device” on page 177).

Camera

Here are some tips for taking good pictures with the built-in camera:

  • Clean the camera's lens with a soft, lint-free cloth.
    Take pictures in brighter lighting conditions. Low-light images may be grainy, due to the sensitivity of the camera.
  • Hold the device as still as possible. Try supporting your picture-taking arm up against your body or a stationary object (such as a wall).
  • Keep the subject of the pictures still. Exposure time is longer with lower light levels, so you may see a blur.
  • For best results, verify that you have the brightest light source coming from behind you, lighting the subject's face. Avoid taking indoor pictures with the subject in front of a window or light.

- Make sure the subject is at least 18 inches away from the camera to ensure good focus.

Remember that when you synchronize your device with your computer, your photos and videos are stored on your hard drive (see “Viewing Pictures and Videos on Your Computer” on page 202).

Making Room on Your Treo 700 P Smart Device

Keep in mind that your Treo 700 p smart device includes an expansion slot, and that you can store applications and information on expansion cards (sold separately). However, you still need free memory on the device itself to run applications from an expansion card.

If you store a large number of entries or install many third-party applications, the internal memory on your Treo 700p smart device may fill up. Here are some common ways to clear space on your device:

  • Email. Messages that have large attachments can quickly consume memory on your device. Delete emails with large attachments. If you have hundreds of messages with or without attachments, you may want to delete older messages to make room (see the User Guide for the VersaMail Application on the Palm Software Installation CD.)
  • Pics&Videos Pictures can consume excessive memory. Move your pictures to an expansion card, synchronize them to your computer (see “Viewing Pictures and Videos on Your Computer” on page 202), or upload them to your account on the Sprint PCS Picture Mail Web site, and then delete large files from your Treo 700 P smart device (see “Deleting a Picture or Video” on page 199).
  • Music. Music files often consume excessive memory. Move music files to an expansion card, or delete large files from your device.
  • Internet. If you have set a large Web browser cache, you may want to clear the cache (see “Customizing Your Web Browser Settings” on page 170).
  • Third-party applications. You can delete infrequently used applications (see “Removing Applications” on page 258) or move them to an expansion card (see “Using Expansion Cards” on page 276).

Third-Party Applications

Some third-party applications can cause conflicts with your Treo device. Third-party applications that modify the wireless features of your device may require extra troubleshooting. If you recently installed an application and your Treo 700 smart device seems to be stuck, try the following:

  1. Perform a soft reset (see "Soft Reset" on page 314).
  2. If the problem persists, perform a system reset (see "System Reset" on page 315).
  3. Delete the most recently installed application from your Treo 700 P smart device (see “Removing Applications” on page 258).
  4. If the problem persists, perform another system reset.

  5. If possible, synchronize your device with your computer to back up your most recent information.

  6. If you're unable to perform the steps above or the problem persists, locate your Backup folder on your computer and rename the folder (for example, BackupOld). Note that "Palm" in the following locations might be "Handspring" or "palmOne," based on the device you're upgrading from:

Windows: C:\Program Files\Palm\device name.
■ Mac: Mac HD\Applications\Palm\Users\device name.

  1. Perform a hard reset (see "Hard Reset" on page 315).

  2. Synchronize to restore your Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Memos, and Pics&Videos information. You may need to manually restore information in other applications.

  3. If the problem is resolved, begin reinstalling your third-party applications one at a time by double-clicking a single file in the original Backup folder that you renamed, and sync after each application you install.

  4. If the problem recurs, delete the last application you installed and report the problem to its developer.

Remember that not all third-party applications were written with the Treo 700 smart device keyboard and 5-way navigator in mind. You may encounter strange behavior or errors in these applications if you use the keyboard and

- Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device

This guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely use your Treo™ 700p smart device. Failure to read and follow the information provided in this guide may result in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

Section 8A: Important Safety Information 361

General Precautions

There are several simple guidelines to operating your device properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

  • Hold the device with the antenna over your shoulder.
  • Try not to hold, bend, or twist the device's antenna.
  • Don’t use the device if the antenna is damaged.
    Speak directly into the microphone.

  • Avoid exposing your device and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your device does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.
    Although your device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.

  • Any changes or modifications to your device not expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for this equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.

Note:

For the best care of your device, only Sprint authorized personnel should service your device and accessories. Failure to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device

Do Not Rely on Your Device's Phone for Emergency Calls

Wireless phones such as the one on your Treo device operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential communication (for example, medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider for details.

Using Your Phone While Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.

Tip:

Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or call the Sprint PCS Accessory Hotline at 1-800-974-2221 or by entering #222 on your Treo 700p smart device.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your device safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn your device's phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.

Using Your Device's Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.

Note:Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission before using the phone near medical equipment.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.

Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn your phone off when you're in any area that has a potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it's rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:

  • Fueling areas such as gas stations.
    Below deck on boats.
    ● Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
  • Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
  • Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle's engine.

Note:

Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.

Restricting Children's Access to Your Device

Your Treo device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could hurt themselves and others, damage the device and/or its phone, or make calls that increase your Sprint PCS Invoice.

Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device

Your Treo™ 700p smart device is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid

Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC information, including the HAC rating of this product, please refer to www.palm.com/treoHAC.

Your device has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been rated will have an “M3” or “M4” rating on the box. Your Treo 700 P smart device phone has an M3 rating.

Note:

Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and may generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

The M3/M4 ratings do not guarantee successful interoperation between your phone and hearing aid device. Results will vary depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and degree of your hearing loss.

The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating

of your aids. Most new hearing aids have at least an M2 immunity level. Add the "M" ratings of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable usability:

  • Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.
    ●Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
    ●Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.

Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a combined rating of six for “best use.”

Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3 or M4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store. With the Sprint 14-day Risk-Free Guarantee you may return the phone within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.

Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Treo 700 P Smart Device

To further minimize interference:

  • There is usually less interference on the microphone setting than the telecoil setting.
  • Set the phone's screen and keyboard backlight settings to ensure the minimum time interval. See “Optimizing Power Settings” on page 296 for instructions.
  • Position the phone so the antenna is farthest from your hearing aid.
  • Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery's performance.

  • Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with Sprint PCS® Treo devices resulting from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only Sprint or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your device’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available atwww.sprint.com — click the Wireless link under Personal, and then click Accessories under Shop the PCS Store Online. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they’re genuine and safe.
  • In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32ircF to 113ircF ( 0ircC to 45ircC ).
  • Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
    ● Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
  • Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
  • Don't attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
  • The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.

It's best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
- Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:

■Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
■More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (Lilon) Batteries

Do not handle a damaged or leaking Lilon battery as you can be burned.

For safe disposal options of your Lilon batteries, contact your nearest Sprint authorized service center.

Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.

Radiofrequency (RF) Energy

Understanding How Your Phone Operates

Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.

Knowing Radiofrequency Safety

The design of your Sprint PCS Treo device complies with updated NCRP standards described below.

In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI's 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use the Sprint-supplied or -approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.

For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at www.fcc.gov.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for Wireless Phones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.

The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring, and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design, and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.

All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.

The highest reported (FCC) SAR values of the Treo™ 700p smart device by Palm are:

Maximum SAR Values CDMA Cellular CDMA PCS
Held to Ear 1.48 (W/Kg) 1.13 (W/Kg)
Body-Worn .896 (W/Kg) .589 (W/Kg)

The highest reported (FCC) SAR values of the Treo™ 700p smart device by Palm on the Sprint Power Vision SM Network (EVDO mode) are:

Maximum SAR Values EVDO Cellular EVDO PCS
Body-Worn .801 (W/Kg) .678 (W/Kg)

FCC Radiofrequency Emission

FCC Radiofrequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines and is certified with the FCC as:

FCC ID number: O8F93001.

Static Electricity, ESD, and Your Device

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to electronic devices if discharged into the device, so you should take steps to avoid such an occurrence.

Description of ESD

Static electricity is an electrical charge caused by the buildup of excess electrons on the surface of a material. To most people, static electricity and ESD are nothing more than annoyances. For example, after walking over a carpet while scuffing your feet, building up electrons on your body, you may get a shock—the discharge event—when you touch a metal doorknob. This little shock discharges the built-up static electricity.

ESD-Susceptible Equipment

Even a small amount of ESD can harm circuitry, so when working with electronic devices, take measures to help protect your electronic devices, including your Palm® device, from ESD harm. While Palm has built protections against ESD into its products, ESD unfortunately exists and, unless neutralized, could build up to levels that could harm your equipment. Any electronic device that contains an external entry point for plugging in anything from cables to docking stations is susceptible to entry of ESD. Devices that you carry with you, such as your device, build up ESD in a unique way because the static electricity that may have built up on your body is automatically passed to the device. Then, when the device is connected to another device such as a docking station, a discharge event can occur.

Precautions Against ESD

Make sure to discharge any built-up static electricity from yourself and your electronic devices before touching an electronic device or connecting one device to another. The recommendation from Palm is that you take this precaution before connecting your device to your computer, placing the device in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device. You can do this in many ways, including the following:

  • Ground yourself when you're holding your mobile device by simultaneously touching a metal surface that is at earth ground. For example, if your computer has a metal case and is plugged into a standard three-prong grounded outlet, touching the case should discharge the ESD on your body.
  • Increase the relative humidity of your environment.
    • Install ESD-specific prevention items, such as grounding mats.

Conditions That Enhance ESD Occurrences

Conditions that can contribute to the buildup of static electricity in the environment include the following:

  • Low relative humidity.
    ●Material type (The type of material gathering the charge. For example, synthetics are more prone to static buildup than natural fibers like cotton.)
  • The rapidity with which you touch, connect, or disconnect electronic devices.

While you should always take appropriate precautions to discharge static electricity, if you are in an environment where you notice ESD events, you may want to take extra precautions to protect your electronic equipment against ESD.

Owner's Record
