Create a player name
You can download, purchase, and play games
without a Player Name, but creating one is
recommended for the full N-Gage experience. A
Player Name enables you to participate in the N-
Gage community, connect with other players, and
share your gaming achievements,
recommendations, and reviews.
You also need a Player Name to transfer your profile
details and N-Gage Points to another device.
When you start the N-Gage application and connect
to the N-Gage service for the first time, you are
prompted to create an N-Gage Player Name. You can
connect to the network, for example, by setting
your availability by selecting 
Options
 > 
Set
Availability
 > 
Available to Play
.
If you already have an N-Gage Player Name, select I
have an account, and enter your user name and
password to log in.
To create a new Player Name:
1.
Select Register New User.
2.
In the registration screen, enter your date of
birth, desired Player Name, and password. If the
Player Name is already taken, N-Gage suggests a
list of available similar names.
3.
To register your Player Name, enter your details,
read and accept the Terms and Conditions, and
select 
Register
.
You can also create your Player Name on the N-Gage
web site at www.n-gage.com.
When you have created a Player Name, you can edit
your settings and personal information by going to
the Private tab of the My Profile module.
Data transfer charges may apply for Player Name
creation on your device. For more information
about data transfer plans, contact your mobile
service provider.
