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
1. Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.
2. 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.
Changing the phone name
The phone name identifies your phone to other devices.
1. Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.
2. If the Bluetooth check box is not selected, select it to turn Bluetooth on.
3. Tap Bluetooth settings > Device name.
4. Enter the name for your phone in the dialog box, and then tap OK.
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.
