Navigation Pad – Key Mapping
When you turn on the phone for the first time,
UpStageTM begins an onscreen tutorial session which
helps you better understand how to use the
touch-sensitive Navigation Pad.
Key Map functions (see image at left) are activated
with a single press:
• Left/Right Softkeys allow you to select softkey actions or
menu items corresponding to the bottom left and right text
on the display screen.
Each successful step takes you to additional screens where
you’ll learn another skill. Press
and continue to the next page.

Navigation Pad – Sweeping
Using the Virtual Keypad
The Navigation Pad allows you to use both single press
activation (previous page) and a scrolling/sweeping
motion.
UpStageTM gives you the ability to choose how you
would like to enter information.
Although most phones only let you use the keypad to enter text and
numbers, UpStage goes one step beyond by giving you the choice
(on certain data entry screens) to use either the phone’s keypad or a
Virtual Keypad, which is driven by the Navigation Pad.
This “sweeping”action across either the Horizontal or Vertical area
of the Navigation Pad (similar to that of a notebook’s touchpad)
allows you to scroll by a set interval.
Examples of sweeping:
To use the Virtual Keypad:
• Half Sweep allows you to scroll through a menu or list by one
selection at a time with each half sweep. This dragging action only
covers a small section of the pad.
Each version of the Virtual Keypad contains a vertical selection at the
left of the screen. To use this feature, just press the Up or Down keys
to make a selection.

• Use your Navigation Pad to scroll down the column and highlight
your selection. Entering text using the Virtual Keypad is made easier
as the phone implements a smart dictionary to help determine the
correct word.

• Full Sweep allows you to scroll by two selections at a time with
each full sweep. This dragging action covers an entire side of the

Locking Your Phone
The Lock button allows you to lock both the phone’s
keypad and Navigation Pad.
To quickly lock the phone:
• Slide the Lock button in the direction of the arrow to lock the
phone’s keypad and Navigation Pad. Locking the phone in this
manner activates the power save mode. All incoming calls are still
received, any assigned ring tones

the phone is locked.
To quickly unlock the phone:
• Slide the Lock button back towards the FLIP button (seen above)
to unlock both the phone’s keypad and Navigation Pad. The phone
returns to the previously active screen.
Note: When the phone is locked, press the Volume key to view the
Time and Date. Locking the phone reduces battery consumption,
extends phone usage, and prevents inadvertent dialing.
Switching Between Screens
Note: When one side of the phone is active, its corresponding
input hardware (keypad or Navigation Pad) can be used to make
selections and enter data. When one side is active, the input
hardware on the other side remains inactive.
The FLIP button allows you switch between the Main
LCD and the smaller Phone Display screen.
This toggling between the two screens also activates/deactivates
certain side-specific features.
Note: As a general rule, most alpha-numeric entry is done via the
Phone’s keypad (except for those instances where the Virtual Keypad
can be used), and access of the main menu options is done via the
Main LCD on the MP3 side.
To navigate between the two screens:
• Press the FLIP button to toggle between the Main LCD (large LCD)
and the Phone Display screen (small LCD).
As the phone switches between the two screens, the currently
active LCD displays a “Flip the phone”image, turns off,
and then power-up the other LCD screen. The unused
screen stays inactive while the other screen remains
active and in use.

UpStageTM lets you use the Sprint Music Manager
