Bluetooth
Using Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology that allows devices to
exchange information over a distance of about eight meters without requiring a physical
connection.
Turning Bluetooth on or off
Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.
Select or clear the Bluetooth check box.
An even easier way to turn Bluetooth on or off is with the Bluetooth widget on the Home
screen. For instructions on adding a widget to the Home screen, see “Adding a widget to
your Home screen” in the Personalizing chapter.
Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in places where using a wireless
device is prohibited, such as on board an aircraft and in hospitals.
Changing the phone name
The phone name identifies your phone to other devices.
Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.
If the Bluetooth check box is not selected, select it to turn Bluetooth on.
Tap Bluetooth settings > Device name.
Enter the name for your phone in the dialog box, and then tap OK.
