Battery loses Power
When the battery is low, you will see a battery icon ( - main battery low, - main battery very low) in the status
bar of the screen and a Pop-up screen to tell you to recharge the battery as soon as possible. The battery is split into
two portions: main battery and backup battery. When the main battery portion is discharged your device will power off.
However, the backup battery portion for 72 hrs will preserve your data. If the backup battery portion is discharged, you
run the risk of losing the data on your Pocket PC Phone.
You want your Pocket PC Phone battery charge to last as long as possible, especially when you’re on the road. Under
normal conditions, you can get many hours of use from a single set of batteries or from a full charge. Here are a few
tips to help you get the most from them.
Use external power whenever possible
Use the AC adapter to plug your Pocket PC Phone into external power whenever possible, especially when:
Establishing a remote connection.
Using the backlight feature of your Pocket PC Phone display.
Connecting to a PC.
Letting the notification light flash for extended periods.
Shorten auto suspend time
While on battery power, your Pocket PC Phone automatically suspends operation if you haven’t touched the
hardware buttons or used the stylus for a specified period. Maximize battery life by shortening the time. Tap
and
then Settings. On the System tab, tap Power, and then adjust the On battery power setting.
Turning off sounds
The Pocket PC Phone produces sounds in response to a number of events, such as warnings, appointments, and
screen taps or hardware button presses. To optimize battery life, turn off any sounds you don’t need. Tap
and
then Settings. On the Personal tab, tap Sounds & Reminders and clear check boxes on the Volume and
Reminders tabs.
To turn off notification light:
Tap and then Settings. On the Personal tab, tap Sounds & Notifications. On the Reminders tab, clear the
Flash light for check box.
If you forget your password
If you forget your password, you’ll need to clear memory on the Pocket PC Phone. See Reset the device and clear
memory earlier in this appendix.
If you run out of Phone memory
Memory on your Pocket PC Phone is shared between storage memory and program memory. Storage memory is
used to store the information you create and programs you install. Program memory is used to run programs on your
Pocket PC Phone. Pocket PC Phone automatically manages the allocation between storage and program memory.
However, in some situations, such as when memory is low, Pocket PC Phone may not be able to automatically adjust
the allocation. If you receive a message stating that storage or program memory is unavailable, try the following
solutions.
Finding space in storage memory:
Move data to a MMC/ SD storage card.
