What if charging fails?
If your phone displays Not charging, charging is
suspended. Make sure the battery is connected to an
approved charging device and that the battery is at room
temperature. Extreme temperatures, hot or cold, can
affect your battery's performance and prevent charging.
If charging still fails, disconnect the charger from your
phone. Then reconnect the charger to
retry. If you still experience charging problems, contact
your service provider and, if necessary, bring your phone
in to have it serviced. Also remember to bring in your
battery and charger.
No service
If you're outside the wireless service area, No service will
display on your phone. No calls can be made or received,
including emergency calls.
What if the call doesn't go through?
Your phone can make and receive calls only when it's
switched on and in the wireless network's service area.
No service means that you're probably outside the
wireless service area. No calls can be made or received.
See "Checking signal strength" on page 14.
Check call restrictions means calls to the phone number
you tried to call are restricted (
), or your phone is locked (
page 55
).
