How can I see to make sure that I have correctly entered my phone number or email address?
Unfortunately you can't, you will have to backspace everything and enter it in again. The little arrow pointing to the left is the delete, so you can press "OK" on that to delete character.

I see that when I am setting up my camera it has a flashing red light in the front. Is that going to flash when it takes pictures?
No- it only flashes red when you are in the set up mode. Once you switch it to "ON" it will not flash.

What if my camera is reading "No Sims"?
Turn the camera off and remove the Sims card. (The SIM card is located in the upper left hand corner, when you are looking at the set up screen) Put a small piece of scotch tape on the non metallic side of the care and reinsert it. This improves the contact between the card and the card reader in the camera. If one layer of scotch tape does not work- try a second layer. Let us know if this does not work.

What if my camera quit sending me pictures?
There are a few different reasons this might have happened. The most common is that you have run out of data. You can log onto my.simhero.com to check if you still have data. Also try checking your batteries. Next, your SD care might be full. There is a setting on the camera that will allow you to have the oldest pictures on your SD card over written by the new picture, making it so that your SD card will never be full. To turn this setting on follow these steps. First be in the setup screen. Now hit the "Menu" button- scroll across the top to "other", now scroll down to "SD cycle", press ok and now scroll down to the on and select on.
