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.
