Quick Start Guide
Transferring your Address Book
If switching from a Digital (TDMA) phone to a Nokia 6820
You will need to manually transfer numbers from one phone’s address book to another by following the
instructions in your phone’s User Guide.
If switching from a Next Generation (GSM/GPRS) phone to a Nokia 6820
Next Generation phones, such as the Nokia 6820, allow you to save contacts to your phone or to your SIM
card (which is a memory chip that you can remove and insert into future next generation phones that you
use). If you decide to change phones (to another Next Generation phone) at any time, be sure to save your
contacts to your SIM card so that you can simply take your address book with you. To copy your contacts to
your SIM, select Menu→Contacts→Copy→From Phone to SIM Card→All→Move Original. You’ll be asked
“Move Entries?” and you should select “Yes”. When your phone is finished moving the entries, you can exit
by pressing the key with the red swoosh. Note: SIM cards are only able to save 200 numbers, and only
one number per name.
Setting Up VoiceMail
Please to refer to the User Guide, which you received with your phone, for full instructions on how to set up your
VoiceMail service. For the Nokia 6820, be sure to follow the “Next Generation” phone instructions and use 1111
as your temporary VoiceMail password. You’ll want to set up your VoiceMail as soon as possible, since this
service is active immediately and callers may be leaving messages for you.
Using Text Messaging
Have you wanted to reach someone, but know that they are in a place where they can’t receive a phone call, or
have you just wanted to pass a quick comment along without making it into a long voice conversation? Text
Messaging may just be for you.
Text messaging is already active on your phone, and any messages that you receive are FREE. This is
especially handy because it means you may be able to receive info alerts for free from sites such as CNN.com,
or the Weather Channel, etc. PC users can also send 150 character-long emails to your phone using your 10
digit telephone number@gocbw.com as the email address. To illustrate, the format of the address would look
something like this:
5135551212@gocbw.com
To respond to text messages, it’s just a dime per message that you send, or you can get a money-saving text
messaging plan if you become a frequent user. To switch to a text messaging plan at any time, simply call
#TXT from your wireless phone and add the service using our automated ordering line. Using text messaging is
easy. See the following instructions, which can be used on virtually any Nokia phone.
