Waking your smartphone
If the screen is off and the smartphone does not react to any
taps on the screen or front panel button, then it has been
locked and is in sleep mode.
Press the power button to wake your smartphone. Unlock
your smartphone by sliding your finger from one side of the
screen to the other (it works both ways).
The lock screen extends to the left of the screen, giving you
room to add widgets for quick access. To view the extended
lock screen, swipe in from the left edge of the display. Swipe
in from the right edge of the display to start the camera (see
).
Note: If you access the extended lock screen by accident while trying to unlock
the screen, you can disable it by tapping the bottom of the screen. Then, unlock
your smartphone as described above.
You may also directly enter the lock screen applications at the bottom of the screen.
Tap the icon and slide your finger to the left or right across to quickly access the
application. To change the lock screen applications, see "Managing the lock screen"
on page 17.
For additional security, you may set an unlock pattern, a set of dots that must be
touched in the correct order to access the phone. Open the Application menu and
then tap Settings > Security > Screen lock.
Note: If you forget your unlock pattern, please refer to "Unlock pattern" on
page 57.
