Navigating on Your Device

You can use finger gestures or the stylus to navigate and interact with the interface of your device:

Finger gestures

You can use finger gestures to select, scroll and pan on the touch screen.

Touching or tapping

When selecting items on the screen, such as the Home screen tabs, Start screen, programs and settings icons, and large onscreen buttons, simply tap them with your finger. Apply some pressure with your finger pad when touching an item on the screen.

“Tapping” is touching the screen lightly and quickly with your finger pad or fingertip. On screens that display smaller-size items, you can more accurately select an item by tapping it with your fingertip.

Finger-scrolling

Finger-scrolling can be used to scroll up and down Web pages, documents, and lists such as the contacts list, file list, message list, calendar appointments list, and more.

To scroll up and down:

䢇 To scroll down, swipe your finger upward on the touch screen. To scroll up, swipe your finger downward

on the touch screen. (“Swiping” means dragging your finger vertically on the screen.)

䢇 To auto-scroll, flick your finger upward or downward on the touch screen. Touch the screen to stop

scrolling. (“Flicking” is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe your finger in light, quicker strokes.)

To scroll left and right:

䢇 To scroll towards the right, swipe your finger to the left. To scroll towards the left, swipe your finger to the

right.

䢇 To auto-scroll, flick your finger left or right. Touch the screen to stop scrolling.

For more information about using Opera Mobile, see “Using Opera Mobile” on page 151. For more information about using Albums, see “Viewing Photos and Videos” on page 112.

Finger-panning

You can use finger-panning to move to and view other parts of a zoomed photo, Web page, document, or an email message. To pan, touch and hold on the touch screen and then drag your finger in any direction.

Stylus

To use the stylus, pull it out from the stylus compartment at the bottom right of your device. If the backlight is off, removing the stylus automatically turns the backlight back on.

Tap with the stylus to open programs and select items on the screen, and touch and hold on the screen to open a shortcut menu. You can also use the stylus in a similar way to making finger gestures.

Device Basics

Using the Zoom Bar

The zoom bar located below the touch screen is a handy zoom control that is unique on your device. When you are viewing a Web page in Opera Mobile or a photo in Albums, you can zoom in by sliding your finger from left to right across the Zoom bar, or zoom out by sliding from right to left.

You can also instantly enlarge or shrink the text size when you are reading messages or Word documents.

䢇 Off: Disable TTY mode, and send and receive voice during an ongoing call.

Roaming To better control roaming costs, you can set your device to roam only on certain

networks. The Data Roam Guard also helps you to manage your roaming costs. For more information about roaming, see “Roaming” on page 143.

Time Synchronization Allows the system time on your device to be synchronized with the time

information of the mobile phone network.

Voicemail Allows you to delete voicemail messages and clear the voicemail icon if it

appears on the screen.

Roaming Alert Enables sound alerts on your device so that you can be notified when your

device enters or goes out of the network coverage area.

DDTM Mode By default, voice calls take precedence over data. If, for instance, you are

browsing the Web or streaming media, the data connection may be interrupted when you have an incoming call. To avoid interrupting the data connection, you can turn on DDTM Mode so that voice calls can be automatically sent to voicemail and the data connection will not be interrupted.
