Digitally signing or encrypting messages adds another level of security to email messages that you send from your device.Digital signatures are designed to help recipients verify the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. With S/MIME-protected messages, when you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients use your public key to verify that the message is from you and that the message hasn't been changed.Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. With S/MIME-protected messages, when you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message.If your device is associated with a CRL or an OCSP server, when you add recipients to an encrypted message, your device tries to retrieve a certificate status for each recipient. You are unable to send the message until certificate statuses are received for all recipients. When the certificate statuses are received, the recipients' names change color, and you can send your message.Color Certificate StatusBlue The certificate is being retrieved, validated, or the certificate is valid.Red No certificate is found, or the certificate is not valid.Purple The certificate can't be trusted, is unverified, or is unknown.Set up S/MIME-protected messagingYou need to store a private key and certificate on your BlackBerry device to send digitally signed or encrypted email messages using S/MIME-protected messaging.

A mobile network connection allows your BlackBerry device to make calls and, if you have a data plan, use data services such as Internet browsing. In some locations, such as in a hospital or on an airplane, you need to turn off your mobile network connection, but usually you can just leave your mobile network connection on.Wi-FiA Wi-Fi network connection is another way to get data services on your device, but unlike using the mobile network, using Wi-Fi doesn't add charges to your data plan. Your device is designed to try to use saved Wi-Fi networks before it tries to use the mobile network for basic data functions such as using the Internet or downloading apps. You can leave Wi-Fi on so that as soon as you're in range of a saved Wi-Fi network, your device connects to it automatically, but remember that if you leave Wi-Fi on all the time your battery can drain faster.Connections between devicesUSBYou can use a USB cable to create a two-way connection between your BlackBerry device and your computer. When you connect your device to your computer using a USB cable, your device appears on your computer as a removable storage device. Depending on the functionality of your computer, you can usually use a USB connection to drag files between your computer and your device.Wi-Fi Direct connectionWhen you connect your BlackBerry device to other devices using a Wi-Fi Direct connection, you can perform actions such as sharing a document without needing an Internet connection. Because a Wi-Fi Direct connection creates a network, you can connect to multiple devices at the same time.Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast connectionMiracast allows you to wirelessly show what's on the screen of your BlackBerry device on another device such as a TV or computer monitor. To display your screen on a device that isn't a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast device, you'll need to connect using a wireless display adaptor or use an HDMI cable to connect your BlackBerry device to the other device.Bluetooth technologyBluetooth wireless technology allows you to create a direct connection between your BlackBerry device and another Bluetooth enabled device. Although you can transfer files over a Bluetooth connection, because of its ability to stream content, Bluetooth connections are more commonly used for actions such as playing the music on your BlackBerry device through a separate speaker or making calls on a headset that is using your BlackBerry device's mobile network connection.NFCNFC is a short-range wireless technology that's used for quickly creating connections between your BlackBerry device and other NFC-enabled devices or NFC tags. With NFC you don't need to enter pairing information to make a connection, so it's useful for on-the-go actions such as transferring contact cards with people you meet, or grabbing information from a poster that SettingsUser Guide136STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
contains an NFC tag. Depending on your wireless service provider and the applications you have installed on your BlackBerry device, NFC can also be used to turn your device into a digital wallet to allow you to do things such as make payments with your BlackBerry device.Shared Internet connectionsYou can use your BlackBerry device's connection to the mobile network to allow other devices to access the Internet. This functionality is particularly useful if you want to browse the Internet on your laptop or Wi-Fi only tablet but you don't have access to a Wi-Fi network.Internet tetheringYou can use Internet tethering when you only have one device that you want to connect to the Internet through your BlackBerry device's mobile network connection. You can connect the device to your BlackBerry device using a USB cable or, if both devices are Bluetooth enabled, you can use Bluetooth technology instead.Mobile HotspotYou can use Mobile Hotspot mode to connect up to eight devices to your BlackBerry device. (The number of devices that you can connect depends on your wireless service provider.) Connecting your devices using Mobile Hotspot mode is like connecting to a Wi-Fi router; you can use the Wi-Fi connections on your devices, but you don't need access to a Wi-Fi network.VPN connectionsYou can connect your BlackBerry device to a virtual private network (VPN) over your mobile network or using a Wi-Fi connection. While your device is connected to the VPN, you can send data to and receive data from the private network across the public network.Turn on airplane modeIn some places, such as on an airplane or in a hospital, you need to turn off all the connections on your BlackBerry device.

In some cases, input methods give you a phonetic approximation of a word based on the keyboard layout you are using. Your device can then suggest a character or diacritic based on the sound you choose.In other cases, input methods provide you with gestures and key combinations for languages. Some keyboard input methods are common to all supported languages, such as word prediction or selecting accented characters by pressing and holding keys.All keyboard input methods also support using key to access symbols.You can use your BlackBerry device in many different languages, regardless of the default language you select. However, the differences between the languages you use may mean that you need specific tips to use your BlackBerry Keyboard with a language that is different than the default keyboard layout. For example, if you use a language that has more characters in the alphabet than the language that your keyboard supports, you need to know how to access those additional characters.Typing in other languagesYou can set your BlackBerry device to recognize three different input languages when you type. As you type, your device makes predictions based on each of the language families. For example, if you use a Latin-based display language, predictions appear for any of the configured Latin-based languages. Similarly, if your display language is Korean, it will not display Arabic or Latin-based suggestions. When you set more than one typing language, you may need to consider the following:SettingsUser Guide163STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
• Some languages, such as Thai and Arabic, have more characters in the alphabet than there are keys on the keyboard. You need to use a keystroke combination to access the second or third character on a particular key.

If you change to one of these languages from a left-to-right language in the middle of a sentence, your device automatically places the characters you type on the left side of the cursor. When you change back to the left-to-right language, you need to move your cursor back to the right side of the text.Typing in Arabic or FarsiThe Arabic and Farsi keyboard layouts support the following features:• The Arabic language has more characters in the alphabet than there are keys on the keyboard. As a result, more than one native character appears on one key. There may be alternate letters that are related to a primary letter or have a similar form. You can use the keyboard mapping guide that appears with the typing task to determine how to press and hold a letter or multi-press to access the second and third characters on each key.• The Farsi language has a few characters that are different from the basic Arabic alphabet.
