If you don’t see a display or the screen doesn’t respond to taps, press 
and hold 

power

 

 and slide the 

ringer

 switch three times to restart 

your phone. Then wait until your phone completes startup. 

An application does not respond to taps

Tap the center of the gesture area. If the application screen minimizes to a 
card, do the following: 

Open

 

Device Info

 

 and restart your phone (see 

Restart your phone

).

If the screen does not respond to taps at all, press and hold 

power

  

and 

slide the 

ringer

 switch three times to restart your phone. Then wait until 

your phone completes startup.

Applications are running slowly

NOTE

Be sure that any third-party applications you install are compatible with 

the Palm

®

 webOS™ platform. Applications written for Palm smartphones using the 

Palm OS operating system or Windows Mobile are not compatible with your Pre 
Plus phone. If you can try a free version of the software before purchasing it, you 
can test it first to make sure it works properly. In App Catalog, you can purchase 
the Classic application from MotionApps to run Palm OS applications on your Pre 
Plus phone.

1

Tap the center of the gesture area to display Card view.

2

Scroll through the cards and note how many applications are open.

3

Close any application you are not using by throwing its card off the top 
of the screen.

If the problem persists after you close apps you are not using, restart your 
phone (see 

Restart your phone

).

My gestures in the gesture area aren’t working

Some gestures begin in the gesture area and end in the touchscreen, and 
vice versa. Crossing the border between the two areas with your finger is 
crucial to making the gesture successfully. Likewise, the drag gesture for 
opening a menu begins at the top of the phone, above the screen, and 
crosses down onto the screen.

*

Gesture area

If you cannot make the back gesture, check to see if you have the next/
previous app gestures turned on (see 

Turn advanced gestures on/off

). If so, 

you need to make a short swipe left for the back gesture, and a full swipe 
right or left for the next or previous open app. 

Likewise, you can’t use the next/previous app gestures unless you turn 
them on (see 

Turn advanced gestures on/off

).

You can see animations of many gestures: 

Open

 

Help

 

 and tap 

Clips

Or go to 

palm.com/support

 to watch the animations on your desktop 

computer. Also, see 

Use gestures: tap, swipe, drag, flick, pinch

.

There are small icons in the lower-right corner of the screen

Those icons represent notifications that you have not opened or dismissed. 
For most types of notifications, if you do not tap a notification after a few 
seconds, it becomes an icon in the lower-right portion of the screen. If you 
see one or more icons, tap anywhere on the bottom of the screen to display 
your notifications.
