What is Android™?
Android is your device's operating system. Since Android is developed by Google™, your device is preloaded with several Google™ services, such as Google Maps™ and Google™ web search. To use some of the services provided by Google™, you need a Google account.
What is different about Android?
Android™ is an open system, which means that you're not limited to using applications and services from only one provider.
Google™ account
With a Google™ account, you can use Gmail™ to send emails, Google Talk™ to chat with friends, and Google Play™ to download applications and games, music, movies and books.

.
2
Find and tap Settings > Add account > Google.
3
Follow the registration wizard to create a Google™ account, or sign in if you already have an account.
You can also sign in to or create a Google™ account from the setup guide the first time you start your device. Or you can go online and create an account at www.google.com/accounts.

Finding your way
Home screen
The Home screen of your device is the equivalent of the desktop on a computer. You can customise your Home screen with widgets, shortcuts, folders, themes, wallpaper and other items. The Home screen extends beyond the regular screen display width, so you need to flick left or right to view content in one of the screen's four extensions.
The items in the bar at the bottom of the screen are always available for quick access.
To go to the Home screen
Press .
To browse the Home screen
Flick right or left.
To change your Home screen wallpaper
1
Tap an empty area on your Home screen.
2
Tap Wallpaper and select an option.
Widgets
Widgets are small applications that you can use directly on your Home screen. For example, the Music player widget allows you to start playing music directly. Some widgets are resizable, so you can expand them to view more content or shrink them to save space on your Home screen.
Application screen
The Application screen, which you open from your Home screen, contains the applications that come pre-installed on your device as well as the applications you download. The Application screen extends beyond the regular screen width, so you need to flick left and right to view all content.
To open the Application screen
From your Home screen, tap .
