1 Tap anywhere on the bottom of the screen to display your

2 Tap a notification to act on it.
Reorder notifications and other dashboard items
The area that displays all of your notifications (see View all your
notifications) is called the dashboard.
Tap and hold a dashboard item, and then drag it to a different location.
Throw a dashboard item off the side of the screen to dismiss it.
Update the software on your phone
Palm continually provides updates to your phone’s operating system. Update
notifications are sent to your phone automatically when a system update is
available (see Respond to a system software notification). When you update
your phone’s operating system, your personal information and files are not
affected. In addition to receiving update notifications, you can manually
check for operating system updates at any time (see Manually check for
system updates).
What’s more, both Palm and many application developers make updates
available for applications you have installed on your phone. You can check in
App Catalog at any time for application updates (see Update downloaded
applications).
Respond to a system software notification
When you get a notification that a system update is available, do one of the
following:
Ta p Install Now twice. When installation is complete and the phone
resets, tap Done. Installation may take around 15 minutes.
Ta p Install Later. The next time you charge your phone, you receive
another update notification. You can again choose whether to install the
update now or later. If you do not tap Install Later within 10 minutes of
receiving the notification, installation begins automatically.
NOTE You can use your phone while updates are being downloaded, but you
cannot use your phone while updates are being installed—including making
emergency calls.
IMPORTANT Do not remove the battery while updates are being installed.
Here is some additional information about system updates:
If you have Wi-Fi turned on and the battery has at least a 30% charge,
your phone automatically downloads a system update if one is available—
you don’t have to do anything. If Wi-Fi is not turned on when the update
becomes available, the Palm servers continue to check your phone for
Wi-Fi availability for two days.
If you do not have Wi-Fi turned on anytime within two days of an update’s
becoming available, your phone automatically downloads the update over
Verizon Wireless’s network as long as the battery has at least a 30%
charge and you have a data connection, as indicated by the or icon
at the top of the screen.
