Charging the battery

Your phone battery is partly charged when you buy the phone. It may take a few minutes before the battery icon appears on the screen when you connect the phone charger
cable to a power source, such as a USB port or a phone charger. You can still use your phone while it is charging.
The battery will start to discharge a little after it is fully charged and then it charges again after a certain time when the phone charger is connected. This is to extend battery life and may result in the charge status showing a level below 100 percent.

To charge the phone using the power adapter

Using the Home key

To go to the Home screen
Press the Home key.

Home screen

The Home screen is your gateway to the main features in your phone. You can customize it with different application icons, shortcuts, wallpaper, and more. The Home screen extends beyond the regular screen display width, giving you more room to play with.
Close your opened applications before going to the Home screen. Otherwise, these applications may stay running in the background and slow down your phone.

Application screen

The Application screen gives you quick access to applications in your phone. You can also customize this screen. Remember that the Application screen extends beyond the regular screen dimensions, so you might have to flick left or right to see everything.
An indicator at the top of the screen shows which part of the Application screen you are in. For example,
indicates that you are in the middle part of the screen.
