Lock key to lock and unlock the phone.

Use a brief touch to select items on the display or to enter text on
the virtual QWERTY keyboard. For example: touch an Application icon
to open the application. A light touch works best.

options, or to access a pop-up menu. For example: press and hold from
the Home screen to access a menu of customization options.

Flick -
Move your finger in lighter, quicker strokes than swiping. This
finger gesture is always used in a vertical motion, such as when flicking

Quickly drag your finger vertically or horizontally across
the screen. This allows you to move the area of focus or to scroll
through a list. For example: slide your finger left or right on the Home
screen to scroll among the seven panels.

Drag -
Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to
move it. Do not release your finger until you have reached the target
position.
