15 Your first week with your new phone Rich and seamless browsing experience Enjoy HTML5 and Flash® content on the go. And no more panning left and right. The web browser's text reflow automatically adjusts text to the width of your screen. To find out more about using the web browser, see Browsing the Web on page 51. You can also keep a copy of what you're browsing so you can read it later even without an Internet connection. See Saving web content for later on page 54. Smart dial The phone dialer's Smart dial feature makes it quick and easy for you to place a call. Just enter the phone number or first few letters of the contact name. See Making a call with Smart dial on page 37. Home screen Your Home screen is where you make HTC One V your own. You can add your favorite applications, shortcuts, folders and widgets so they're always just a tap away. To find out how, see Personalizing on page 30. Extended Home screen As you start to do more things with HTC One V, you might find that one Home screen is not enough. No problem. Slide your finger horizontally to the left or right on the screen and you'll discover more space for adding icons, widgets, and more. Press to return to the main Home screen. Touch gestures Tap Press and hold Swipe or slide Drag Flick When you want to type using the keyboard, select items onscreen such as application and settings icons, or press onscreen buttons, simply tap them with your finger. To open the available options for an item (for example, a contact or link in a webpage), simply press and hold the item. To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically or horizontally across the screen. Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to drag. While dragging, do not release your finger until you have reached the target position. Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe your finger in light, quicker strokes. This finger gesture is always in a vertical direction, such as when flicking the contacts or message list.
