Calibrate the device
Calibrating the touch screen involves tapping the centre of a cross with the stylus as the cross moves around
the screen. This process ensures that when you tap the screen with your stylus, the tapped item is activated.

1.
Tap
Start > Settings > System
tab
> Screen
.
2.
On the
General
tab, tap
Align Screen
, then follow the on-screen instructions to complete the
calibration.

Start > Settings > System
tab
> Screen

tab, select the

check box.

To increase the readability or to see more content on the screen, on the
Text Size
tab, adjust the text
size by moving the slider.

Rotate Screen
icon in HTC Home’s Launcher.

power. Your XV6900 also automatically goes into Sleep mode when you leave the device idle after a certain
amount of time.

button again or new incoming calls/messages will wake up your XV6900.
