    							Page 91  Removing a Book 
      
    • When you finish reading a book, you can delete it to conserve 
    space on your Pocket PC Phone. If a copy of the book is stored 
    on your desktop PC, you can download it again at any time.  
    • To remove a book from your Pocket PC Phone, tap and hold the 
    title in the Library list, and then tap Delete on the pop-up menu.
     
     Image Viewer 
     
     
      
    • Image Viewer allows you to conveniently view 
    high-resolution JPEG and BMP pictures, whether you 
    are at home or on the road. 
    • Download images to your PC, and then use 
    ActiveSync to copy the files to your Pocket PC Phone. 
    The images appear in 
    Image Viewer, where you can 
    tap them in the list to open them.  
      Pictures can also be stored on a MMC or SD memory 
    card to save memory on your Pocket PC Phone. Insert a 
    card into the memory card slot and then copy or drag 
    the pictures from your desktop PC to the My 
    Documents directory on the memory card. (If the 
    memory card does not have a My Documents 
    directory, you must create one first). 
    Image Viewer is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG group. 
    Transferring Images to your Pocket PC Phone 
     
    Pictures stored on your PC can be synchronized with 
    Image Viewer on your Pocket PC Phone. Picture synchronization is not 
    automatically selected in ActiveSync. For more information on synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop PC. 
     
    Changing your Image List Layout 
     
    You can choose to file your images in a list or as Viewer icons.

    Appendix A: Character Recognizer 
     
    Using Character Recognizer, you can write characters directly on your Pocket PC Phone screen with your stylus, just as you 
    would on a piece of paper. The characters you write are translated into typed text. Use Character Recognizer anywhere you want 
    to enter text - for example, to write a note or to fill in fields in a dialog box.  
     
     
    • The default writing mode for Character 
    Recognizer is lowercase (Jot-compatible) mode. 
    In this mode, you write characters in lowercase. 
    The chart at the end of this appendix contains 
    examples of how to write characters in lowercase 
    mode.  
    • You can also choose to write in uppercase 
    (Graffiti-compatible) mode. In this mode, you 
    write characters in uppercase. If you prefer to 
    write in uppercase mode, tap Uppercase Mode 
    in Options on the input method menu. Whether a 
    letter appears in uppercase or lowercase when it 
    is converted to typed text depends on where in 
    the input panel you write it - not on the mode you 
    have selected. 
    • The Character Recognizer input panel is divided 
    into three writing areas. Letters written in the left 
    area (labeled ABC) create uppercase letters, and 
    letters written in the middle area (labeled abc) 
    create lowercase letters. Use the right area 
    (labeled 123) for writing numbers, symbols, 
    special characters and punctuation.  
     
      
    • 
    The chart is a partial display of the characters you 
    can write while in lowercase mode (the dot on 
    each character is the starting point for writing). 
    Remember that even though you write a letter in 
    its lowercase form, the case of the text that is 
    displayed depends on where you write the letter. 
    For example, if you write a lowercase “a” in the 
    ABC area, an uppercase “A” is displayed on the 
    screen. 
    For more information on using Character Recognizer and for demos of all characters, tap 
     on the Character Recognizer input 
    panel.

    Appendix B: Troubleshooting 
    Resetting the Pocket PC Phone and Clearing Memory  
    You can perform a soft reset or a full reset, depending on the situation.   A full reset, in the sense that you will lose all data and any 
    software you have installed yourself, is similar to reinstalling your operating system (OS) on your desktop PC.  A soft reset is 
    similar to restarting your desktop PC. 
     
    If your Pocket PC Phone responds slowly, stops responding or freezes, try soft resetting it. A soft reset causes the Pocket PC 
    Phone to restart and re-adjust memory allocation. Unsaved data in open windows may be lost. 
    To perform a soft reset 
    • Use the stylus to press and hold the Reset button for about two seconds. (For details on finding soft reset, see “Chapter 2, 
    Bottom Edge Components.”) 
    To perform a full reset 
     
    War n in g :   Clearing memory deletes all data and restores the Pocket PC Phone to its default settings. Programs installed at the 
    factory remain, while data you have created and programs you have installed are erased. 
      
      
    1.  Unscrew the stylus and use the smaller point of the top-half.  
      
    2.  Press the battery switch once to turn it off, and then once more to 
    turn it back on. 
     Use ActiveSync to keep a backup of your Pocket PC Phone data so that if you need to clear memory, you 
    can restore the data on your Pocket PC Phone. For more information, see ActiveSync Help.  
    						
    							Page 95 
    Battery loses power 
    When the battery is low, you will see a battery icon ( - main battery low,  - main battery very low) in the status bar of the 
    screen, and a pop-up screen will tell you to recharge the battery as soon as possible. The battery is split into two portions: main 
    battery and backup battery. When the main battery portion is discharged, your Pocket PC Phone will power off.  However, the 
    backup battery portion will preserve your data for 72 hrs. If the backup battery portion is discharged, you run the risk of losing the 
    data on your Pocket PC Phone. 
     
    You want your Pocket PC Phone battery charge to last as long as possible, especially when you are on the road. Under normal 
    conditions, you can get many hours of use from a single set of batteries or from a full charge. Here are a few tips to help you get 
    the most from them. 
    Use external power whenever possible 
    Use the AC adapter to plug your Pocket PC Phone into external power whenever possible, especially when: 
    • Establishing a remote connection. 
    • 
    Using the front light feature of your Pocket PC Phone display. 
    • 
    Connecting to a PC. 
    • Letting the notification light flash for extended periods. 
    Shorten auto suspend time 
    While on battery power, your Pocket PC Phone automatically suspends operation if you have not touched the hardware buttons or 
    used the stylus for a specified period. Maximize battery life by shortening the time. Tap 
     and then Settings. On the System 
    tab, tap Power, and then adjust the On battery power setting. 
     
    To turn off sounds you do not need 
    The Pocket PC Phone produces sounds in response to a number of events, such as warnings, appointments, screen taps and 
    hardware button presses. To optimize battery life, turn off any sounds you do not need. Tap  
      and then 
    Settings. On the 
    Personal tab, tap Sounds & Notification and clear check boxes on the Vo l u m e  and Notifications tabs. 
    To turn off notification light 
    Ta p    and then Settings. On the Personal tab, tap Sounds & Reminders. On the Reminders tab, clear the Flash light for 
    check box. 
    If you forget your password 
    If you forget your password, you will need to clear memory on the Pocket PC Phone. See Resetting the Pocket PC Phone and 
    Clearing Memory earlier in this appendix. 
    If you run out of phone memory 
    Memory on your Pocket PC Phone is shared between storage memory and program memory. Storage memory is used to store the 
    information you create and programs you install. Program memory is used to run programs on your Pocket PC Phone. Your 
    Pocket PC Phone automatically manages the allocation between storage and program memory. However, in some situations, such 
    as when memory is low, your Pocket PC Phone may not be able to automatically adjust the allocation. If you receive a message 
    stating that storage or program memory is unavailable, try the following solutions. 
    Finding Space in Storage Memory 
    • Move data to a MMC/SD storage card. 
    • 
    Tap 
    , Programs, and then File Explorer. Tap and hold the file you want to move, and tap Cut. Browse to the My 
    Documents folder in the storage card folder, tap Edit and then tap Paste. Files stored in folders other than My Documents, or 
    stored in folders within folders in My Documents, may not show up in the list view of some programs. When using Notes, 
    Pocket Word, or Pocket Excel, you can also move files by opening the item and tapping Tools or Edit and then 
    Rename/Move.  
    						
    							Page 96 
    • Move e-mail attachments. In Inbox, tap Tools and then Options. On the Storage tab, select Store attachments on storage 
    card. All attachments are moved to the storage card, and new attachments are automatically stored on the storage card. 
    • 
    Set programs such as Notes, Pocket Word, and Pocket Excel to automatically save new items on the storage card. In the 
    program, tap To o l s and then Options. 
     
    • If you are copying files from your PC or another Pocket PC Phone to your Pocket PC Phone, try adjusting the slider in the 
    Memory setting. Tap 
     and then Settings. On the System tab, tap Memory and check whether the slider can be adjusted 
    manually before copying files. 
    • 
    Delete unnecessary files. Tap 
    , Programs and then File Explorer.  Tap and hold the file, and then tap Delete on the 
    pop-up menu. To find your larger files, tap 
     and then Find. In the Type list, tap Larger than 64 KB, and then tap Go.

     and then Settings. On the System tab, tap Remove Programs. Tap the 
    program you want to remove and then tap Remove. 
     
    • 
    Clear program memory as described in the following section. This will free some program memory so that it can be allocated 
    to storage memory. 
    Finding Space in Program Memory 
    • 
    Stop programs you are not currently using. In most cases, programs automatically stop to free needed memory. However, in 
    some situations, such as when confirmation dialog boxes are waiting for a user response, the program may not be able to 
    automatically stop. To check the state of your active programs, tap 
     and then Settings. On the System tab, tap Memory 
    and then the Running Programs tab. Tap the program you want to view and then tap Activate. Close any open windows or 
    messages and return the program to list view. If this does not work, you can stop the program manually. First, make sure that 
    closing open items and returning the program to list view saves your work. Then, stop the program by tapping Stop or St op  
    All on the 
    Running Programs tab.  
    • 
    Clear storage memory as described in the preceding section. This will free some storage memory so that it can be allocated to
