When the Power options menu appears, tap Power off. Entering your PIN Most SIM cards come with a PIN (personal identification number) set by your mobile operator. If you're asked for a PIN, enter it and then tap OK. If you enter the wrong PIN three times, your SIM card is blocked. No problem. Just contact your mobile operator and ask for the PUK (PIN Unblocking Key). Finger gestures Tap Press and hold Swipe or slide Drag Flick Rotate Pinch When you want to press onscreen buttons or select items onscreen such as application and settings icons, simply tap them with your finger. To open the available options for an item (for example, a contact or link in a web page), 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. For some screens, you can automatically change the screen orientation from landscape to portrait by turning HTC Status sideways. In some apps, like Gallery or the web browser, you can "pinch" the screen using two fingers (for example, thumb and index finger) to zoom in or zoom out when viewing a picture or a web page.
