Get your Home screen looking the way you want.
By putting the things you need on the Home screen, you get quick access to important information and applications.
You have 8 screens to work with. It should be plenty to add the widgets and shortcuts you want.
We've included a host of widgets on your phone. The hard thing will be picking the widgets you want to add.
Let's add a widget. Tap and hold the screen, and then tap widget.
There's a lot to choose from.
If you’re like me, I want to see my email messages right away.
Let's add the Mail widget.
Most of the widgets offer different styles so choose one that you like.
This one looks cool.
Select the account you want to show and that's it.
It's also easy to rearrange the items on your Home screen.
Just drag an item to where you want it. The other items in the area will automatically adjust their positions.
You can also move items to a different screen by dragging it to the edge of the screen.
Or, if you want to remove it from your Home screen, just drag it to the Remove button.
You can also pinch the center Home screen to go to Leap view.
In leap view, you can quickly jump to a home screen panel by tapping it.
Or, if you want, you can also rearrange the home screen panels.
And to really make the Home screen yours, use one of your photos as the wallpaper.
Press menu, tap wallpaper, then Gallery.
Choose the picture you want to use,
crop if needed,
then tap Save.
Voila! Now you have a Home screen that's uniquely yours.
