The Basics
To unlock the phone
If you don’t use the phone for a while, the screen and backlight will turn off
to conserve battery power. To unlock the phone’s default Lock screen:
1. Turn the screen on.
Press the Power/Lock Key (on the back of the phone). The default
Lock screen will appear.
NOTE
Avoid covering the proximity sensor when turning the screen on. Doing so, immediately
turns the screen off.
OR
Quickly double-tap the center of the screen (KnockON).
NOTE
If you set up a Knock Code in the Screen lock setting, you can tap your sequence to turn
the screen on and unlock the screen at the same time.
2. From the center of the screen, swipe in any direction
to unlock it.
To use a shortcut, swipe the shortcut icon (at the
bottom of the screen) in any direction. The screen
will unlock and launch the app.
NOTE
The default Lock screen simply locks the screen to prevent
unintentional actions. For more security to guard against
unauthorized use, you can set an unlock requirement (such as
a knock code, pattern, PIN, password, or face recognition) that
will need to be entered to unlock it.
To turn the phone sounds off
If you’re in a place where your phone sounds may disturb others, you can
quickly silence your phone from the Home screen.
From the Home screen, press and hold the Power/Lock Key (on
the back of the phone), then tap the Silent mode icon
.
NOTE
Only one mode can be selected at a time. The currently activated mode (Silent
,
Vibration
, or Sounds
) is underlined in blue. Tap any of the sounds mode icons to
switch to that mode.
