Home screen
1. Earpiece Lets you hear callers and automated prompts.
2. Proximity sensor Senses proximity toward other objects (such as your
head) so that tap commands are not accidentally activated during a call.
It also employs an ambient sensor which measures the surrounding light
and adjusts the LCD brightness to provide a vivid screen.
NOTES sDo not block the sensor or near the sensor to avoid problems with the
touchscreen.
sWhen receiving and making calls, the proximity sensor automatically turns the
backlight off and locks the touchscreen by sensing when the phone is near your
ear. This extends battery life and prevents you from unintentionally activating the
touchscreen during calls.
3. QuickTap bar Provides icons for quick, one-touch access to the apps you
use most often.
NOTE You can change the icons in the QuickTap Bar to suit your needs. To reposition, add, or
remove an icon, see page 17.
