Data Services FAQs
How do I sign in for the first time?
You are automatically signed in to access data services
when you turn on your device.
How do I know when my device is connected to data
services?
Your device automatically connects when you use data
service or an incoming message arrives. You will also
see the
or
indicator.
Can I make calls and use data services at the same time?
No, you cannot use voice and data services
simultaneously.
When is my data connection active?
Your connection is active when data is being
transferred. Outgoing calls are allowed; incoming calls
go directly to voicemail. When active, the
indicator is animated on the display screen.
When is my data connection dormant?
If your device receives no data for 10 seconds, the
connection goes dormant. When the connection is
dormant, you can make and receive voice calls. (The
connection may become active again quickly.) If your
device receives no data for an extended period, the
connection will terminate.
Can I re-download paid applications without being
charged again?
Your Market applications are associated to your
Google account login information. Even if your device
is reset and reinstalled with an update to Android, you
can log back into your Google account and reinstall
these applications. (See "Reinstalling a Google
Application" on page 161.)
