In Flight Mode, you can use your Sony Ericsson K800i to do tasks that don't involve the sending or receiving of information. Hence you can't make calls, send an SMS, use the Internet or Bluetooth, or the FM radio.

However, you can listen to music, play videos, access your calendar information, and write text messages or emails to send later.

When you turn on your Sony Ericsson K800i, you will be given the option of using your phone either in Normal Mode (With all functions turned on), or Flight Mode.

To view Flight Mode options:

On the Menu Screen select Settings (Figure 1).
On the General tab, scroll down to Flight Mode (Figure 2).
Select one of two options: Don’t Show or Show At Start-Up (Figure 3).
If you selected the second option, when you turn your phone on you will have the option of using the phone in Flight Mode.
