Troubleshooting for Nokia Asha 303

Yes, Nokia Asha 303 does support USB charging. To charge your device when you do not have a charger with you or a wall outlet is not available you can use a compatible USB cable to connect to a compatible device, such as a computer.

Data can be transferred while charging the device. The efficiency of USB charging power varies significantly, and if your battery is completely drained it may take a long time for charging to start and the device to start functioning.

To make sure that Chat is always easily accessible, add it to your home screen (see instructions for personalising the home screen in your user guide).

When you open Chat for the first time, you are required to type your user name or e-mail address and password to access your internet IM community. If you do not already have a registered account with an IM community, you can create a Nokia account by selecting Sign up for Nokia Chat. You can also sign up for another IM community online, using either your PC or your phone's browser. When you have created your account, you can access Chat.

•  Use default: Use the Chat application's default avatar.

The ability to use Chat with different communities depends on your phone model. If your phone comes with the Nokia standard service level, you can access only Nokia Chat. If your phone has the Nokia premium service, you can access many of the most popular IM communities.

• Sign out all and close: When you select Options > Exit > Sign out all and close, you are signed out of all currently open accounts and taken back to the home screen.
