inserted correctly. If you cannot activate your smartphone, contact
your wireless service provider for help.
2 The 3G icon?
No? Then move outside or go to a more built-up area until you see
the 3G icon. If you see a white triangle, you're roaming and setup
won't work. Move to a location where you are within coverage of
your wireless service provider network. Setup takes longer when
your smartphone has a 2G connection.

No? Then charge your smartphone: Plug the USB cable into the AC
charger, plug the charger into an electric socket and connect the
other end of the cable to the charger/microUSB connector on your
smartphone. Charge the smartphone for at least one hour.
