Online services
Online services are customized services
offered by network operators, independently
of mobile phones and mobile phone
manufacturers.
A SIM card which supports Online services works
in the same way as a normal SIM card. When you have
inserted your SIM card and turned on your phone, your
network operator can download data to your SIM card.
After the first data download and after restarting your
phone, a new menu appears in your phone as the first
submenu under the Connect menu.
•To enter your new menu system, scroll to Connect/
Online services.
Note: This menu only appears if your SIM card
supports this service. Some operators may not use the
name “Online services”. Your phone may not support
all of the services offered.
