Home screen
After unlocking the screen, you first see the home
screen. There are actually five home screens, the main
(or “primary”) home screen and four more. Slide your
finger to the left or right to see the other home
screens. The four small dots at the bottom left and
right corner of the screen show which home screen
you’re currently on. You can also switch home screens
by tapping on the dots.
You can put shortcuts for apps you often use on the
home screen or create folders to contain further short-
cuts, favourite contacts or bookmarks from the brows-
er. You can also put widgets on the home screen.
Widgets are simple apps. You can get widgets to show
the weather or the time, for example. Some apps also
contain one or more widgets. Your home screen
comes pre-installed with the takwak widget (see
“takwak Outdoor widget” on page 19).
To add a shortcut to the home screen press and hold
on a blank part of the home screen to get a menu.
Then choose Shortcuts » Applications and the app you
want. See also
“Widgets” on page 88.
The following three buttons are always shown at the
bottom of the home screen:
►
Phone - to make a phone call.
► Applications - to open the Launcher,
which lists all of the apps currently installed on
the device - slide your finger up and down to
see all of them.
Press and hold

views of the five home screens. You can then

with icons on the right side for the status (such as the
battery charge level or phone network signal strength)

e-mail or download).
