How to Connect a Bluetooth to an HTC Phone
1. Turn on your headset. Make sure the Bluetooth device is fully charged before attempting to pair. Press the power button on your Bluetooth device to turn it on.
2. Open the Bluetooth settings menu. On your Windows Mobile-based HTC phone, Bluetooth settings are found under the 'Start' menu. Open the 'Settings' folder, then the 'Connections' folder, followed by 'Bluetooth.' On an Android phone, Bluetooth settings are found under 'Wireless Controls.' This can be accessed by pressing the 'Menu' key and touching 'Settings.' Touch the Bluetooth logo to turn on the Bluetooth radio (HTC Mobile Phone Support: HTC Magic).
3. Add a new device. Highlight the 'Add a new device...' option and press the center or 'OK' button on your HTC phone. If the HTC device has a touch screen, click on the 'Add a new device...' text.
4. Complete the pairing process. Your HTC Windows Mobile phone will search for Bluetooth devices that are within range of communicating with the phone. When you see the name of your Bluetooth device appear on the screen, press 'Next.' If you are pairing a headset to the Windows Mobile device, no passcode number is needed to complete pairing. At this point, the pairing process is complete. However, if your device is not a headset, continue to Step 5.
5. Enter the Bluetooth device passcode. The passcode can be found in the device owner's manual. If you are connecting to a Bluetooth system in a car, the necessary passcode may be displayed on the radio screen or read aloud over the car radio. Once the passcode is entered, click 'Next.' If the passcode is accepted, press 'Done.' The pairing process between your HTC phone and a Bluetooth device is complete.
How to Make Free Phone Calls With Cell Phones
1. Download a software program that allows the you to make free calls on your phone. Skype.com and Fring.com offer free applications that are used by businesses and consumers worldwide. These applications use your Wi-Fi-enabled mobile device to transfer call data over the Internet. Don’t expect the voice quality of these calls to be excellent, though. They are, however, free and allow you connectivity throughout the world.
2. Register to receive a unique user ID at Skype.com or Fring.com. As the application loads on the phone, it displays a keypad to make calls. The system works for free as long as you make calls within its domain–that is, Skype to Skype or Fring to Fring. This works for calls to a basic telephone as well when the account is prepaid for non-Skype or non-Fring calls.
3. Access your Skype or Fring account through your phone to start using the service. The Skype and Fring services will ask for your user name and password when logging in.
4. Choose a number to dial and begin calling.
