Data connection
When you turn on your phone for the first time, it will be automatically set up to use
the AT&T mobile network.
Turning the data connection on or off
Turning your data connection off can help save battery life and save money on data
charges. However, if you don’t have data connection turned on and you’re also not
connected to a Wi-Fi network, you won’t receive automatic updates to your email,
social network accounts, and other synchronized information.

Enabling data roaming
Connect to AT&T partner networks and access data services even when you’re out of
AT&T coverage area.
Using data services while roaming is not part of your subscribed monthly data
access allowance. Check with AT&T for data roaming rates before you enable data
roaming.
