What is Android?

Android is your phone's operating system. Since it's

developed by Google™, your phone 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. With a Google account you can

access Android Market™ – an application store

providing both free and paid applications for easy

download to your phone.

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

Use Gmail™ to send emails, Google Talk™ to chat

with friends, and Android Market™ to download

applications.

To add an account

1From your Home screen, tap .

2Tap Settings > Accounts & sync > Add

account.

3Tap the account type you want to add and then

follow the registration wizard.

explains basic phone functions and helps you enter

essential settings. You can also access the setup

guide later.

so already. You can only synchronise contacts

that are saved as Google™ account contacts.

2Set up your Google account to work in the new

phone. As part of the setup, your contacts get

downloaded to the phonebook application in the

then import them again and save them as

Google™ account contacts in your phone.
