Touch Settings
Touch Sensitivity
The Samsung Instinct s30’s touch screen requires a
small amount of pressure to operate. The smaller the
size of your contact point on the screen, the less the
amount of pressure required. The tip of your finger will
work better than the pad of your finger, and a fingernail
or stylus (not included) will require even less pressure.
Initially, your device's sensitivity is set to its highest
level. Once you have discovered your preferred method
for operating your touchscreen, you may find that it is
too sensitive for some applications. You can adjust how
sensitive the device is to touch actions on the screen.
1. Press and touch
General > Touch Sensitivity.
2. Touch and drag the slider left or right to adjust the
sensitivity level.
_ Touch the onscreen Touch Here button to gauge
the response of the new sensitivity level.
3. Once you are done, touch Done.
Screen Calibration
Use this menu to re-align the screen’s touch accuracy.
This should only be done if the device does not appear
to be responding properly to onscreen touches.
1. Press and touch
General > Calibration.
2. Touch OK and follow the onscreen instructions.
3. Use either your fingertip or stylus to touch the four
crosshair locations on the screen.
Airplane Mode
Airplane Mode allows you to use many of your device’s
features, such as Games and Notepad, when you are
in an airplane or in any other area where making or
receiving calls or data is prohibited. When you set your
device to Airplane Mode, it cannot send or receive any
calls or access online information.
1. Press and touch
General > Airplane Mode.
2. Move the slider to either On or Off.
3. Read the onscreen message and touch OK to
continue.
While in Airplane Mode, your device’s standby screen
will display “Phone off.”
TTY Use With Sprint Service
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a
telecommunications device that allows people who are
deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language
disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices.
Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device
to ensure that it is compatible with digital wireless
phones. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a
special cable that plugs into your phone’s headset
jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY
device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to
purchase the connector cable.
When establishing your Sprint service, please call
Sprint Customer Service via the state
Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first
dialing where the phone
number now appears.
