Charge the Battery
Your device is powered by a rechargeable, standard 
Li-Ion battery. A Wall/USB Charger (charging head 
and USB cable) is included with the device for 
charging the battery from any standard outlet. 
The battery comes partially charged. A fully 
discharged battery requires up to four hours of 
charge time. You can use the device while charging.
Caution: Use only Samsung-approved charging 
devices and batteries. Samsung accessories are 
designed to maximize battery life. Using other 
accessories may invalidate your warranty and may 
cause damage.
1. Open the side slot and plug the connector of the 
travel adapter jack into the jack on the side of 
the phone. 
2.  Insert the USB cable into the port.
3. Connect the USB cable to the charging head, 
and then plug the charging head into a standard 
outlet.
4. When charging is complete, unplug the charging 
head from the outlet and remove the USB cable 
from the device.
Caution: Failure to unplug the wall charger before you 
remove the battery can cause damage to the device.
When to Charge the Battery
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes 
of operation remain, the battery icon (   )  blinks 
and the device sounds a warning tone at regular 
intervals. 
In this condition, your device conserves its 
remaining battery power by dimming the screen. 
When the battery level becomes too low, the device 
automatically turns off.
 ►For a quick check of your battery level, view the 
battery charge indicator located in the Status Bar 
of the display. A full blue icon (  ) indicates a 
full charge.
You can also choose to display a percentage 
value. Viewing a percentage value can provide 
a better idea of the remaining charge on the 
battery.
MicroUSB to 3.5mm Converter

microUSB-to-3.5mm converter that is included with 
your phone.
1.  Open the slot on the side of the phone.
2.  Plug the connector of the converter into the USB 
jack.
3. Plug the 3.5mm headset jack into the converter.

							16Entering TextKnow Your Device
Learn how to select the desired 
text input method when entering 
text and characters. This section 
also describes how to use the 
T9 predictive text system to 
reduce the key strokes required 
to enter text.
Text Input Methods
Text input can either be Alphabetic or Predictive. To 
switch between the two methods while entering text, 
press Options > Predictive text on/off.
Note: The Predictive text option indicates the input 
method you wish to switch to, not the current method. 
For example, Predictive text on means that you are 
currently using Alphabetic input and want to switch to 
Predictive text.
ABC (Alphabetic) Input Method (abc, Abc, 
and ABC)
Use this input method to enter letters by pressing 
the key labeled with the letter you want. Press the 
key repeatedly until the desired letter, character, or 
number displays.
The abc mode makes all characters of the word 
lowercase. The Abc mode makes the initial 
character an uppercase while the remaining 
characters are lowercase. The ABC mode makes all 
characters of the word uppercase. The 123 mode 
only allows numbers to be entered.
T9 Predictive Text Input Method (T9Eab, 
T9EAb, and T9EAB)
Use this input method to enter words with only 
one keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad 
has more than one letter; for example, pressing 
the  5 key can enter J, K, or L. However, the 
T9 method automatically compares the series of 
keystrokes you make with an internal linguistic 
dictionary to determine the most likely word or 
words, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the 
Alphabetic method.
The T9Eab mode makes all characters lowercase. 
The T9EAb mode makes the initial character an 
uppercase while the remaining characters are left as 
lowercase. The T9EAB mode makes all characters 
uppercase. The 123 mode only allows numbers to 
be entered.
Note: The E in T9E indicates English and F is for 
French. 
Changing the Text Input Method
When you are in a field that holds characters 
(such as in a text message) , the text input method 
indicator displays. Use the following steps to change 
the text input method:
1. Press Options > Predictive text on/off.
2.  After you have selected an input method, press 
the  Pound key to switch between the 
capitalization and numeric modes.
