To search for a contact, tap
in the lower right corner of
the screen. Enter the search words.
To be able to communicate with a contact, you must define
account settings for the Internet call and instant messaging
services. For more information, see "Accounts", p. 26.
Before you can start to communicate with your contacts,
you need to send an authorization request or response.
An authorization request is normally sent automatically
when you add a new contact. When a recipient receives
an authorization request and accepts it, you can see the
recipient’s presence status and can start communication.
When you remove a contact from your address book, the
authorization is also removed.
To get in contact, select a contact from the list and, in the
contact dialog, tap an available channel for communication:
to call the contact,
to chat with the contact, and
to send an e-mail message to the contact.
