Q: How can I end the data connection when
the device starts a data connection again and
again?
A: The device may be trying to retrieve a multimedia
message from the multimedia message centre. To stop
the device from making a data connection, select
Menu > Communic. > Messaging > Options >
Settings > Multimedia message > Multimedia
retrieval > Manual to have the multimedia
messaging centre save messages to be retrieved later,
or Off to ignore all incoming multimedia messages. If
you select Manual, you receive a notification when
there is a new multimedia message that you can
retrieve in the multimedia message centre. If you select
Off, the device does not make any network connections
related to multimedia messaging.
To set the device to use a packet data connection only
if you start an application or action that needs it, select
Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Packet
data > Packet data connection > When needed.
If this does not help, switch the device off, and switch
it on again.
Q: How do I save battery power?
A: Many features in your device increase the demand
on battery power and reduce the battery life time. To
save battery power, do the following:
• Switch off Bluetooth when you do not need it.
• Stop the background scans for WLAN. Select Menu >
Tools > Settings > Connection > Wireless
LAN > Show WLAN availability > Never. You can
still manually scan for available WLAN networks and
connect to WLAN networks as usual.
• Set the device to use a packet data connection only
if you start an application or action that needs it.
Select Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection >
Packet data > Packet data connection > When
needed.
• Prevent the device from automatically downloading
new maps in the Maps application. Select Menu >
GPS > Maps > Options > Settings > Internet >
Use network > Off.
• Change the time-out after which the backlight is
switched off. Select Menu > Tools > Settings >
General > Personalisation > Display > Light
time-out.
• Close the applications you do not use. Press and hold
the home key. Scroll to the application, and press
the backspace key to close the application.
