Synchronization

Synchronize your calendar, contacts data, and notes with another compatible
device, for example, a mobile phone, a compatible PC, or a remote Internet server
(network service).

If you have saved data on the remote Internet server, you can synchronize your
phone by starting the synchronization from your phone. You can also synchronize
the data in your phone contacts, calendar and notes to correspond to the data of
your compatible PC by starting the synchronization from your PC. The contact
data in your SIM card is not synchronized.

Synchronize from your phone

Before synchronizing from your phone, you must subscribe to a synchronization
service and get the configuration settings from your provider. For more
information on availability and the synchronization service settings, contact your
