The Basics

Adding application icons to the Home screen

Customize your Home screen with the applications you use most often.

1. Open the Applications screen.

2. Touch and hold the application icon you want to add to your Home

screen. The Applications screen will close so that you can place the icon
on the Home screen.

3. Lift your finger to place it or drag the icon to where you want it on the

screen, then lift your finger.

Moving applications to other Home screen canvases

You can place application icons on any of the Home screen canvases.

 Drag: Touch and hold, then drag the icon to the left or right edge of the

screen to advance to the other screen canvases before lifting your finger.

 Tilt: Touch and hold an item, then tilt the device to move it to one of the

Home screen canvases in that direction, then lift your finger.

NOTE

To be able to use the Tilt method, the Move home screen items function needs to
be activated. From the Home screen, touch the Menu Key

> System settings >

Gestures > Move home screen items checkbox.

Working with Menus

There are two kinds of Android menus: Options menus and Context menus.

Options menus

Options menus contain tools that apply to the activities of the current
screen or application, not to any specific item on the screen. To open the
available options menu, touch the Menu Key

. Not all applications have

Options menus; if you touch the Menu Key

on a screen that has no

Options menu, nothing will happen.
