Anti-Theft Guide

You can set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it’s been reset to factory settings without your permission. For example, if your device is lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone with your Google account or screen lock information can use the device.

All you need to make sure your device is protected is:

Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you have a screen



lock set, the device can’t be erased using the Settings menu unless your screen is unlocked.

Add your Google account on your device: If your device is wiped but



you have your Google account on it, the device can’t ﬁnish the setup process until your Google account information is entered again.

After your device is protected, you’ll need to either unlock your screen or enter your Google account password if you need to do a factory reset. This ensures that you or someone you trust is doing the reset.

NOTE Do not forget your Google account and password you had added to your device prior to

performing a factory reset. If you can't provide the account information during the setup process, you won't be able to use the device at all after performing the factory reset.

To u c h S c r e e n

Your touch screen provides an excellent way to interact with and use your Android™ phone. With the touch of your ﬁnger, you can download and use available apps, make menu selections, and access data saved to your phone.

Tou c h or t ap A single ﬁnger touch selects items. For example, tap an

icon (e.g., an app, widget, or folder), tap words (e.g., menu selection or to answer an on-screen question), or touch letters and numbers to type.

NOTE Don't press too hard on the screen. It's sensitive enough to detect a light, ﬁrm tap.

Tou c h an d ho ld Touch an item on the screen and don't lift your ﬁnger

until an action occurs. For example, to open a context menu for a contact, touch and hold the contact entry until the menu pops up.

The Basics

Drag Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your

ﬁnger, move your ﬁnger on the screen until you reach the target position. For example, you can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.

Swipe, slide, or ﬂick Move your ﬁnger quickly across the surface of the

screen, without pausing when you ﬁrst touch it (so you don’

t drag an item instead). For example, you can browse through the Home screens by swiping left and right, slide the screen up or down to scroll through a list, or remove an app from the Recent apps screen by ﬂicking its graphic off the screen.

Double-tap Tap the screen twice quickly to zoom, highlight text, or turn

the screen on/off. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a web page to zoom that section to ﬁt the width of the screen and control the zoom in Maps and in other apps. Double-tap a word to highlight it. Double-tap can also activate the KnockON feature to turn the screen on or off.

NOTE Certain Accessibility features (such as Touch zoom) use a triple-tap gesture to zoom or

activate functions. A triple-tap will also activate a new event in the Calendar app.

Pinch-to-zoom Use your index ﬁnger and thumb in a pinch motion (to

zoom out) or spread motion (to zoom in) when using Chrome, a map, photos, the rear camera lens, and in lists (e.g., Contacts, Favorites, the Messaging list, and a music list. Spread apart to make screen information larger (easier to see and read), or pinch together to view more area and information. The pinch gesture also changes the Home screen. Pinch in on the Home screen to change to mini panel view, then spread apart to return to the full screen view. Spread apart on the Home screen to hide all of your Home screen items, then pinch in to redisplay them.

Rotate the screen From many apps and menus, the orientation of the

screen adjusts to the phone’

s physical orientation by rotating the screen.
