new Samsung Galaxy Note II. It’s divided into four sections to help

you nd the information you need quickly and easily.

Using This Guide

need to do before you use your phone

the rst time, including inserting a

battery and activating Sprint service on

your phone.

Android Basics

Getting Around Your Phone

Move Around Your Phone’s Menus

and Screens

Your phone’s touchscreen lets you control

everything through various types of touches,

or gestures.

Tap: When you want to type using the

onscreen keyboard, select items such as

application and settings icons, or press

onscreen buttons, simply tap them with your

inger. A light touch works best.

Touch and hold: To display the available

options for an item simply touch and hold

the item.

Flick: Move your inger in lighter, quicker

strokes than swiping. This inger gesture is

always used in a vertical motion, such as when

licking through contacts or a message list.

Swipe: Quickly drag your inger vertically or

horizontally across the screen.

Drag: Press and hold your inger with some

pressure before you start to move it. Do not

release your inger until you have reached the

target position.

Rotate: Activate the auto-rotate feature to

automatically change the screen orientation

from portrait to landscape by turning the

phone sideways.

Slide: This feature allows you to enter text by

sliding a inger from letter to letter, lifting only

between words. See page 15 for instructions

on using this continuous input method with

the various keyboard types.

Your Home Screen

Viewing Your Home Screen

horizontally up to seven full screens. This

gives you room to customize your phone

and put the things you need front and

center, just a swipe away.

• To display the main (center) Home screen,

press from any screen.

• To view extended screens, swipe the

screen left or right. There are up to three

additional screens on each side of the

main Home screen.

• To display thumbnails of all available

screens, pinch any home screen. Tap a

thumbnail to display the screen.

screen lets you quickly see both your phone

status (connections, signal strength, battery,

location) and any current notiications.
