How do I set up and use my HTC S620?

Please follow these steps in the order that they appear.

1. Before you start

Ensure that you have the following from the box:

  • HTC S620 handset.
  • AC mains adaptor or USB cable to charge the battery.
  • A fully charged battery and battery cover. Charging times are 8 hours for standard batteries or 10 hours for Extended Life battery. When fully charged, the Image battery icon is displayed and the LED indicator above the screen changes from orange to green.
  • BT Office Anywhere SIM card (packed separately in the outer box), if applicable.

We recommend that you are in range of a working BT Business Hub or Home Hub when setting up your handset for the first time.

Note: Remember to transfer your phonebook to your BT Office Anywhere SIM from your old phone by following manufacturer’s instructions. The Office Anywhere SIM card can store up to 200 entries.


2. Starting your handset

Note: Do not use the USB cable to connect to your PC at this stage.

To start your handset:

  1. Insert the SIM card into the slot at the top-left corner with its gold plated contacts facing down. Follow the diagram etched into the phone back. Push the SIM card all the way in until the SIM card locks into place:

  5. Follow instructions in your welcome letter. You may need to dial the activation number given.

    After the SIM is activated, a Image in the toolbar means that GPRS is available. Make sure you are in an area with good mobile coverage. Check that signal strength has at least three bars: Image

To get connected:

  1. Press and hold the Image button on the left side of the HTC S620 handset.

  5. Click on Yes to restart your handset.

    If you get an error message that it was unable to receive an SMS from BT servers in the allotted time, check you are in a good signal strength area and repeat the above steps. If error repeats again, please call Customer Services.

4. Setting the date and time

To set the date and time:

  1. Click on Home.
  2. Click on Start and select Settings > Clock & Alarm > Date and Time.
  3. Scroll down from Date and Time to Automatic Time/Time Zone and click on RIGHT to display Enable.

5. Registering the handset to a BT Hub or compatible wireless router

Note: BT hubs use WEP security. Other makes of hub or wireless router might not use WEP security. Your phone will usually recognise this. Please refer to the manufacturer’s guide or call their helpline for more information.

You need to register to a BT Hub to start emailing or browsing using wi-fi and, if you ordered it, making calls using Internet Calling.

To register:

  1. Move close to a BT Home or Business Hub that is switched on and working correctly.
  2. Click on Start and use the Navigation control to scroll to Comm Manager menu.
  3. Click on Select.
  4. Scroll to the Image box and click on Select. The orange cross on the button will disappear and the wi-fi icon will show Searching/Connecting then Wi-fi Available.
  5. Click on Settings:

    Image
  6. Select WLAN settings > Wi-fi. All detectable wireless hubs are displayed.
  7. Select your BT hub or compatible wireless router from the list.
  8. Click on Menu and select Wi-fi Settings:

    Image
  9. Ensure the Available network notification is on:

    Image
  10. Click on Done.
  11. Select your BT Hub or compatible wireless router from the list.
  12. Click on Connect.
  13. Click on Next until the Network Key screen is displayed:

  14. Scroll DOWN to highlight The key is automatically provided box.
  15. Click on Select to remove the tick from the box.
  16. Scroll DOWN to Network Key.
  17. Enter the network key for the hub. On BT Hubs this is called the Wireless Key or WEP key and the code may be pre-entered. Use the FN button to switch from alpha to numeric entry if required.

    The network key is displayed as follows on the BT hubs:

    • BT Business Hub

      Image
    • BT Home Hub 1.0 and 1.5

      Image
    • BT Home Hub 2.0

      Image
  18. Click on Next.

    Image

With wi-fi on, you can browse the Internet or check email using wi-fi when in range of any Hub to which you have registered. To use at BT Openzone hotspots, please see Using BT Openzone for email or Internet browsing. If you ordered Internet Calling you can also make calls straight away over wi-fi (including at BT Openzone hotspots).

With wi-fi off or if you are out of range of the Hub or hotspot, calls are connected via GSM and usage charges may apply.

Note: Wi-fi connection requires more battery power than GSM/mobile connection. If using wi-fi for long periods we recommend inserting the extended use battery.


6. Setting up your office email

Note: Do not connect to your PC. This is carried out over the air.

If you've ordered BT Business hosted email together with your BT Office Anywhere package, you should only need to enter your email account password during setup. The other details will be entered automatically. If your email address ends in btconnect.com, you have BT hosted email.

If your email is hosted by another provider, you may have to enter details when prompted. Check what these are with your IT manager.

To set up your office email:

  1. From the Home screen, click on Start/ActiveSync.
  2. Click on Menu using right soft key and select Add Server Source:
