Question

I just got a pearl from a friend so it is not new and I am trying to see all the things it can do.. I started looking up question on the internet and it has been a great help until now.... update you OS to the latest verison, Make sure you are running the right software ? OMG !!!! it is a phone *lol* Please help WHERE do I find which OS i am running? and is there anything else that I really should know... I can't even get a game to play that I download because it asks if I want sound and I can't figure out what buttin to push to say no or YES..... I had a 6133 Life was much easier.. I'm almost thinking of going back.,,, (PS , how to I get my T9 back on??)

Answer 1

Go to the Options icon, then About. This will give you the software version installed on your device.

Typically to "select" the option is chosen by simply pressing down the trackball.

T9 is automatically turned on.

I have a Pearl and this device, while fascinating, certainly takes some getting used to. I would recommend trying it out for 2 weeks before reverting back to your old device.
