122Installing applicationsThis is the Internet version of the user’s guide. © Print only for private use. Installing applicationsIt is possible to install new applications in your P800. These applications can be obtained in several ways, for example: • from the Internet. •from a CD. • from a Memory Stick Duo. • as an e-mail attachment. • from other devices. There are two types of installation files for applications: • SIS (Symbian Standard Installation) made for P800 or other Sony Ericsson devices. • MIDP JAR (Mobile Information Device Profile Java Archive). Note SIS and JAR files are installation packages containing one or several files. This chapter also applies to other types of software to install, for example, system components and add-ons.Applications from developers outside Sony Ericsson, so called third-party developers, might be installed in the P800. Applications which are not approved by Sony Ericsson are not guaranteed to work correctly or securely, and users install them at their own risk. Product failures caused by applications not approved or made for Sony Ericsson will not be covered by your warranty. Installing applications on your P800Installation file securityInstallation files in SIS format are typically used for installation of Epoc or PersonalJava ™ applications or other content into the P800 file system.The vendor who prepared the SIS file decides where in the file system the various content of the SIS file will be installed. This means that you need to decide if you trust that the SIS file does not contain harmful content. If you know for sure who produced the SIS file then you can take an installation decision based on what you know about that vendor. Your P800 supports cryptographic verification of vendor identity.
Installing applications123This is the Internet version of the user’s guide. © Print only for private use. During installation the P800 verifies a digital signature and certificate in the SIS file against a root certificate in the phone. Successful verification means that you can trust who produced the SIS file and that the content has not been modified after it was created. If the SIS file does not contain a digital signature you will be given a warning about the problem but you can still decide to proceed with installation at your own risk. In general it is recommended that you install only from SIS files where the vendor identity and file integrity can be verified. Note Installation of uncertified applications may cause your system to crash and all your data will then be lost. MIDP applications run in a protected environment with no access to sensitive information so no signatures are required for MIDP JAR files.

Connecting to other devices127This is the Internet version of the user’s guide. © Print only for private use. Connection via Bluetooth wireless technologyYou can connect your P800 to other products equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology, for example PCs or other mobile phones, and exchange data. Since Bluetooth wireless technology is radio-based, there does not have to be a free line of sight between transmitting and receiving devices. This means that your P800 can stay in your pocket while communicating. However, objects between transmitting and receiving devices might weaken the signal. Connection to another device can be made within a range of up to 10 meters. Obstructions between the transmitting devices will have an effect on the performance. For all tasks, except beaming, it is necessary that you first set up a permanent and trusted relationship between your P800 and the other device. This process is called pairing (other documentation may refer to it as bonding). The paired devices are remembered by your P800 also after you have turned it off so you do not need to repeat the process for every connection with those devices. The reason for pairing is to simplify future connections and to make them secure – only paired devices can connect to your P800. Activating Bluetooth wireless technology Activate Bluetooth wireless technology on your P800 in Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Settings . Set Operation mode to Auto , On or Discoverable and set Receiving items to Always receive , Ask first or Never receive . See “Control panel” on page 137 for more information on Bluetooth wireless technology settings. The Bluetooth wireless technology operation mode is also possible to change with the flip closed, through the Connections application. When the Bluetooth wireless technology is activated, appears on the screen and the left indicator on top of your P800 blinks blue. PairingTo let your P800 initiate pairing with another device, such as a headset 1. In Control panel > Connections> Bluetooth > Settings , set Operation mode to Discoverable. 2. Set the other device to be discoverable. 3. In the Devices tab, tap Add . Your P800 searches for all devices in the vicinity and lists them. 4. Select the device you want your P800 to pair with and, enter a passkey when asked for it. When the passkey is accepted, the pairing process is complete, refer to “Passkeys” on page 128.

If you in the future want to allow a paired device to connect to your P800 without you explicitly approving each connection you should select Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Devices, then select a device and the check box Allow to connect without confirmation . To let another device initiate pairing with your P800 1. In Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Settings , set Operation mode to Discoverable . 2. Follow the other device’s manual to initiate pairing. 3. When asked for a passkey, enter the same on both devices. 4. If you in the future want to allow a paired device to connect to your P800 without you explicitly approving each connection you should select Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Devices, select a device and the check box Allow to connect without confirmation . TipYou can change the name of a paired device. When you pair with other Bluetooth wireless technology enabled phones, it is very useful to include the users name as part of the device name. This will make it very easy to beam information to the desired recipients. To let a headphone initiate pairing with your P800 1. In Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Settings , set Operation mode to Discoverable .2. Follow the headphone’s manual to initiate pairing on the headphone. 3. In the Devices tab tap Add . Your P800 searches for all devices in the vicinity and lists them. 4. When asked for a passkey, enter the headphone’s passkey on your P800. 5. If you in the future want to allow the headphone to connect to your P800 without you explicitly approving each connection, you should select Control panel > Connections > Bluetooth > Devices , select the headphone and the check box Allow to connect without confirmation . To remove a paired device from your P800 • Select a device in the list and select Remove . PasskeysPasskeys ensure that the device you pair with really is the device you think it is. A passkey is a set of numbers and/or letters (at least four characters) that you agree to exchange with the owner of the other device. Simply agree a passcode with the other user and each enter the same code into both devices when asked for it. The actual code is up to you; the important thing is that you both enter the same code. Accessories like headsets often have a default passkey, usually ‘0000’, see the specific user’s guide.

130Synchronization and backupThis is the Internet version of the user’s guide. © Print only for private use. Synchronization and backupWith PC Suite for P800 installed in your PC, your P800 can synchronize with the following PC applications, also called Personal Information Managers (PIMs): • Lotus® Organizer® 5 & 6 • Lotus® Notes® 4.6, 5.0 • Microsoft® Outlook® 98, 2000, 2002 Synchronization is divided into local and remote. Local synchronization is performed directly to a connected PC while remote synchronization is done over the air with a remote server in, for example, a corporate network. The manual describes the easiest way to perform the tasks but you can also carry out most of them by selecting Start > Programs > Sony Ericsson > P800 in the PC and then select the desired command. Refer to the online help find in Help in the menu bar in the PC software to get more information about synchronization and backup. Note If you have imported SIM phone book entries into Contacts in your P800, those entries will not be synchronized with the corresponding entries in your PC when synchronizing your P800 and PC. You will instead get duplicates in your P800. Local synchronizationLocal synchronization is done with either cable, infrared or Bluetooth wireless technology, the functionality is the same. E-mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Jotter notes (only text) can be synchronized locally.Local synchronization settingsLocal synchronization is initiated from the PC and all settings are made in the P800 PC software (included on the PC Suite for P800 CD).
