Can I sign out of data services?
You can sign out without turning off your device; however, you will not be able to browse the
Web or use other data services (unless you establish a Wi-Fi connection.) While signed out, you
can still place or receive phone calls, check voicemail, and use other voice services. You may
sign in again at any time. To sign out, go to Settings > Wireless & networks and clear the
Mobile network check box.

Virtual Private Networks (VPN)

From your device, you can add, set up, and manage virtual private networks (VPNs) that allow
you to connect and access resources inside a secured local network, such as your corporate
network.

Prepare Your Device for VPN Connection

Depending on the type of VPN you are using at work, you may be required to enter your login
credentials or install security certificates before you can connect to your company's local
network. You can get this information from your network administrator.
Before you can initiate a VPN connection, your device must first establish a Wi-Fi or data
connection. For information about setting up and using these connections on your device, see
Launch a Web Connection

Set Up Secure Credential Storage

first set up the device's secure credential storage.
1. From the Home screen, touch
2. Set up a screen lock.
Tip:
If using a PIN or password screen lock, use at least eight characters without any spaces.
You can then download and install the certificates needed to access your local network. Your
network administrator can tell you how to do this.

Add a VPN Connection

1. From the Home screen, touch
2. Touch Add VPN network, and then touch the type of VPN you want to add.
