Using Your Device in GSM Mode
Entering GSM Mode
By default, your device operates in Global mode. With a SIM card installed, Global mode
allows your device to seamlessly switch from a CDMA network to a GSM network when you
are traveling in another country and there is no CDMA service available in your location.
If necessary, you can also manually change the network mode setting of your device to
GSM-only mode.
To change the network mode to GSM:
1. Tap Start > Settings > Menu > Phone Network Mode.
2. From the Mode of operation list, select GSM only.
3. Tap ok.
While in the United States, your device will operate only in CDMA mode; domestic GSM networks
will not be accessible via this device.
Note

When traveling on international GSM networks while in GSM mode, you can place and
answer calls the same as in CDMA mode. Certain features and services are not available in
all countries.
Calling Emergency Numbers in GSM Mode

networks. If a data service is available on a CDMA network, you do not need to manually
set your device to CDMA mode. You also do not need to select the specific carrier.
Selecting a specific carrier is necessary only for providers on the GSM network.

Using Your SIM Card’s PhoneBook
Your SIM card contains its own phone book that is separate from your device’s internal
Contacts list. You can update and maintain the SIM PhoneBook whenever your SIM card is
installed on your device, even if you are not in a GSM service area.
When saving a Contacts entry to your SIM card, note that only the name and number are
saved. Entries stored on the card do not contain any detailed information that may be stored
in the device's internal memory. To store additional information for a particular contact, such
as email addresses or dates, it is important to save that information to your device’s onboard
memory.
When a SIM card is active, the All Contacts screen that can be accessed from the TouchFLO
3D People tab will then display two types of entries:
Contacts entry — SIM card
Contacts entry — Phone
Each Contacts entry stored on the SIM card can use only one phone number, and the entry’s
name can be a maximum of 12 characters.
