Basics

Notification area

displays icons associated with

end-user notifications such as: email messages,
calls (missed, call in progress), new voicemail,
upcoming events, a USB connection, and text/MMS
messages. (See “Using the Notifications Panel” on
page 41.)

These notifications appear at the top-left of the
screen (within the Status bar) and display
important user information.

.

Status area

displays icons associated with the status

of the device such as communication, coverage,
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi communication, battery levels,
GPS, etc.

Main Home Screen

is a customizable screen that

provides information about notifications and device
status, and allows access to application Widgets.

Extended Home Screens

allow you to see the rest of

the Home screen. The device’s screen extends
beyond the current visible screen width to provide
more space for adding icons, widgets, and more.

There are five available screens, each of which
may be populated with its own shortcuts or
widgets.

Press

to access the main Home screen (1)

which appears as the default “page” on the
device and then slide your finger horizontally
across the screen to go to the left or right
extended screens (2). There are four additional
screens on either side of the main Home screen.

Think of it as having a desktop so wide that your
screen can only display a portion at a time.

Tip:

While on an extended Home screen, press

to

return to the main Home screen.

Note:

The Status bar and Application tab are visible across all
Home screens.
