energy. Also if you could try these steps below and see if it connects. Select Bluetooth
options on R500, click search for devices

SD card, please tap on File Manager icon in
10. Why do I have less memory showing?
The R500 internal memory is 512MB and the reason why you have 170MB left is due to the
fact the rest is occupied by the Android OS.
11. Shortly after receiving my device SIM 1 slot stopped working?
When you insert the SIM into slot 1, do you push it in so there is no space around the edge
and when you check SIM card is working do you allow about 5 minutes to camp on to the
network? Also I would suggest you please check SIM APN settings have been configured
correctly. To do this follow below instructions
Go to Settings > Wireless and Network Settings > Mobile Networks > Select Subscription >
Subscription 1 > Access Point Names > Choose from list of networks according to SIM you
are using.
If you are still having issues then you will have to send device back to repair centre and they

We do support Mifare NFC tags, the fact it’s not working is very odd. Does any other tag
work on the device such as Jewel, Felica open tag, ISO/IEC 14443-4? If not then it could be
an NFC issue with the device, maybe the pins aren’t touching the NFC sensor. Please let me
know if other tags do work?
17. I’m trying to do is use an app called “Mobizen”; this app displays an image of the phone on
my laptop screen for use in product demos. The USB connection seems good as the R500
