Social networking
my life, your life
Your MOTOBLUR account
The first time you turned on your phone, you registered for a MOTOBLUR account that manages your messages, contacts and more (“Set up & go” on page 4). You can log into this account from a computer to upload contacts, reset your password, get help or even locate your phone: www.motorola.com/mymotoblur
What is MOTOBLUR?
MOTOROLA BACKFLIP with MOTOBLUR is a phone with social skills.
Only MOTOBLUR syncs contacts, posts, feeds, messages, emails, photos and much more—from sources like Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, your work email, Picasa and Photobucket—and automatically serves it up just the way you want it. No need to open and close apps and menus, it’s all centre stage on your home screen and integrated throughout the entire phone so you can communicate anyway you like.
Update your status
After you add a social networking account, you can update and see your current status in a Social status widget on your home screen.
To update your status, just touch your Social status widget and enter text. If you have more than one account, you can use the pull-down menu to limit which accounts are updated. If you don’t see a Social status widget, flick your home screen left or right to check all panels.
To add a Social status widget:
1 Touch and hold an empty spot on your home screen to open the Add to Home screen menu.
2 Touch Widgets > Social status . The widget appears in the empty spot and will show your status the next time your phone updates from the network.
Add account
If you skipped setting up a MOTOBLUR account when you first turned on your phone, you’ll need to set up a MOTOBLUR account before you can add other accounts. On your home screen, touch Set up your
Blur account and follow the steps in “Set up & go” on page 4.
Social networking 11
Note: You can add your Facebook , MySpace , Twitter or other accounts to your phone. If you don’t have accounts, you can visit the relevant websites to set them up.

> Settings > Accounts > Add
To sign into your account, use the username or email address and password that you set up on that account
(the same as on your computer).
When you sign into social networking accounts, you’ll see your friends and contacts in your Contacts list.
Your status and updates can appear in Social status and Happenings widgets.
Twitter and MySpace messages will always appear as “read” on your phone, but your phone notifies you when you receive a new message. MySpace marks your messages as “read” online.
For email accounts , see “Set up messaging” on page 20.
Tip: To download updates faster, use “Wi-Fi” on page 44.
View account updates & features

Battery tips
Your phone is like a small computer, giving you a lot of information and apps, at 3G speed, with a touch display! Depending on what you use, that can take a lot of power. So, if you want to save battery life between charges, you could reduce:
• the number of videos you watch or record, the amount of music you listen to or the number of pictures you take.
• the number of widgets that stream information to your home screen, like news or weather (“Use & change your home screen” on page 9).
• unused online accounts that you registered with
MOTOBLUR (“Edit & delete accounts” on page 12).
• GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth™ use: Press and hold
Power to open the Power key menu, then touch items to turn them off or on.

Troubleshooting 53
Safety, regulatory & legal
Battery use & safety
Battery Use & Safety Important: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage.
Most battery issues arise from improper handling of batteries, and particularly from the continued use of damaged batteries.
DON’Ts
• Don’t disassemble, crush, puncture, shred or otherwise attempt to change the form of your battery.
• Don’t let the phone or battery come in contact with water. Water can get into the phone’s circuits, leading to corrosion. If the phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked by your service provider or contact Motorola, even if they appear to be working properly.*
• Don’t allow the battery to touch metal objects. If metal objects, such as jewellery, stay in prolonged contact with the battery contact points, the battery could become very hot.
• Don’t place your battery near a heat source. Excessive heat can damage the phone or the battery. High temperatures can cause the battery to swell, leak or malfunction. Therefore:
• Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
• Avoid leaving your phone in your car in high temperatures.*
DOs
• Do avoid dropping the battery or phone. Dropping these items, especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause damage.*
• Do contact your service provider or Motorola if your phone or battery has been damaged by being dropped or by high temperatures.
* Note: If the product guide expressly states that your phone is designed to resist damage from exposure to certain rugged conditions, such as water immersion, rain, dust, high and low temperatures, shock or other conditions, do not exceed the stated limits and ensure the stated precautions are taken. Always make sure that
54 the battery compartment is closed and secure to avoid direct exposure of the battery to any of these conditions.
Important: Use Motorola Original products for quality assurance and
safeguards. To aid consumers in identifying authentic Motorola batteries from non-original or counterfeit batteries (that may not have adequate safety protection),
Motorola provides holograms on its batteries. Consumers should confirm that any battery they purchase has a “Motorola Original” hologram.
Motorola recommends that you always use Motorola-branded batteries
and chargers. Motorola mobile devices are designed to work with Motorola batteries. If you see a message on your display such as Invalid battery or
Unable to charge , take the following steps:
• Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it has a “Motorola Original” hologram;
• If there is no hologram, the battery is not a Motorola battery;
• If there is a hologram, replace the battery and try charging it again;
• If the message remains, contact a Motorola authorised service centre.
Important: Motorola’s warranty does not cover damage to the phone caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
Warning: Use of a non-Motorola battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.
Proper and safe battery disposal and recycling: Proper battery disposal is not only important for safety, it benefits the environment. Consumers may recycle their used batteries in many retail or service provider locations. Additional information on proper disposal and recycling may be found on the Web:
• www.motorola.com/recycling
• www.rbrc.org/call2recycle/ (in English only)
Disposal: Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Contact your local recycling centre or national recycling organisations for more information on how to dispose of batteries.
032375o
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
Battery charging
Battery Charging Notes for charging your phone’s battery:
• When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature. Never expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F) when charging.
• New batteries are not fully charged.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
• Motorola batteries and charging systems have circuitry that protects the battery from damage from overcharging.
Specific Absorption Rate (ICNIRP)
SAR (ICNIRP)
Your model of wireless phone meets international guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines.
These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organisation ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR). The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobile devices used by the general public is 2 watts per kilogram (W/kg), and the highest SAR value for this mobile device when tested at the ear is 0.78 W/kg. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on the body as described in this guide. In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 0.42 W/kg. The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for testing. The SAR information includes the Motorola testing protocol, assessment procedure and measurement uncertainty range for this product.
As SAR is measured using the mobile device’s highest transmitting power, the actual SAR of this mobile device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the mobile device to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach the network.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various mobile devices and at various positions, they meet the governmental requirements for safe exposure. Please note that improvements to this product model could cause differences in the SAR value for later products; in all cases, products are designed to be within the guidelines.
The World Health Organisation has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce your exposure, then you can do so by limiting the length of calls or using a hands-free device to keep the mobile device away from the head and body.
Additional information can be found on the websites of the World Health
Organisation (http://www.who.int/emf) or Motorola, Inc.

GPS & AGPS
location-based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S. government that are subject to changes implemented in accordance with the Department of
Defense policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the performance of location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which obtains information from the mobile network to improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless service provider's network and therefore airtime, data charges and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact your wireless service provider for details.
Your location
Location-based information includes information that can be used to determine the approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile phones that are connected to a wireless network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with GPS or
AGPS technology also transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such
applications transmit location-based information. This location-based information may be shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider, applications providers, Motorola and other third parties providing services.
Emergency calls
When you make an emergency call, the mobile network may activate the AGPS technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area. Therefore:
• Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your ability; and
• Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder instructs you.
Performance tips
• Go outside and away from underground locations, covered vehicles, structures with metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings and foliage. Indoor performance might improve if you move closer to windows, but some window sun shielding films can block satellite signals.
• Move away from radios, entertainment equipment and other electronic devices.
Navigation
Motorola strives to provide complete and accurate mapping information, directions and other navigational data, using a combination of governmental and private location information sources. These sources may contain inaccurate or incomplete data. In some countries, complete information may not be available. Therefore, you should visually confirm that the navigational instructions are consistent with what you see. All drivers should pay attention to road conditions, closures, traffic and all other factors that may impact driving. Always obey posted road signs.

Privacy & data security
Privacy & Data Security Motorola understands that privacy and data security are important to everyone.
Because some features of your mobile device may affect your privacy or data security, please follow these recommendations to enhance protection of your information:
• Monitor access—Keep your mobile device with you and do not leave it where others may have unmonitored access. Lock your device’s keypad where this feature is available.
• Keep software up to date—If Motorola or a software/application vendor releases a patch or software fix for your mobile device that updates the device’s security, install it as soon as possible.
• Secure personal information—Your mobile device can store personal information in various locations including your SIM card, memory card and phone memory. Be sure to remove or clear all personal information before you recycle, return or give away your device. You can also back up your personal data to transfer to a new device.
Note: For information on how to back up or wipe data from your mobile device, go to www.motorola.com/support
• Online accounts—Some mobile devices provide a Motorola online account
(such as MOTOBLUR). Go to your account for information on how to manage the account and how to use security features such as remote wipe and device location (where available).
• Location-based information—Location-based information includes information that can be used to determine the approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile phones that are connected to a wireless network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with GPS or AGPS technology also transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such applications transmit location-based information. This location-based information may be shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider, applications providers, Motorola and other third parties providing services.
61
• Other information your device may transmit—Your device may also transmit testing and other diagnostic (including location-based) information, and other non-personal information to Motorola or other third-party servers. This information is used to help improve products and services offered by Motorola.
If you have further questions regarding how the use of your mobile device may impact your privacy or data security, please contact Motorola at [email protected] contact your service provider.
Smart practices while driving
Driving Safety
Drive Safe, Call Smart
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas—for
example, hands-free use only. Go to www.motorola.com/callsmart
(in English only) for more information.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless service is available and safe conditions allow. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile device while driving, remember the following tips:
• Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features such as speed
dial and redial. If available, these features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
• When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an additional layer of convenience to your mobile device with one of the many Motorola Original hands-free accessories available today.
• Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be able to access your mobile device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.
• Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
62
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a
“to do” list or going through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility—driving safely.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when your
car is not moving or before pulling into traffic. If you must make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be
distracting. Make people you are talking to aware you are driving and suspend conversations that can divert your attention away from the road.
• Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 999 or another local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergencies (wherever wireless phone service is available).
• Use your mobile device to help others in emergencies. If you see a road accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 999 or another local emergency number (wherever wireless phone service is available), as you would want others to do for you.
• Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or another special non-emergency wireless number (wherever wireless phone service is available).
