Turning Data Roaming ON

You can connect to the partners of your mobile operator and have access to data services even when you are not inside your mobile operator’s coverage zone. But, keep in mind that using data services when roaming can be costly.

1. Open the Notification panel.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Select Mobile Network and then tap Data roaming.
4. And if you want your smartphone to play a sound whenever it’s connecting to a roaming network, tap Data roaming sound.

Connecting to Wi-Fi

In order to connect to Wi-Fi you either need a hotspot or a wireless access point.

1. Open the Notification panel -> then tap Settings.
2. Turn the Wi-Fi switch On .
3. Then tap Wi-Fi. A list with the detected Wi-Fi networks will appear.
4. In case the network that you were searching for doesn’t appear here, try to add it manually by tapping the Menu icon and then selecting Add network.
5. Now tap the network you wish to connect to.
6. In case the network is protected by a password, enter the necessary passkey.
7. Then tap Connect.

Note: The next time you turn the Wi-Fi on and connect to a network you’ve been connected to in the past you won’t be required to enter the password once more. You’ll be required to enter the password again only in the event you hard reset the HTC One SV.

Use the HTC One SV as a Mobile Hotspot
