Date & time • Set time, time zone, and date - Use Automatic unless you need to override the network values. • Time format - Select from 12- or 24-hour formats. • Date format - Select from a variety of formats. Text • Turn Auto-replace feature on/off - This feature is not a spell-checker, but automatically corrects commonly-mistyped words when selected. • Turn Auto-cap on/off - When selected, automatically capitalizes the first letter in a text field, or the first letter after a period (.), question mark (?), or exclamation point (!). • Turn Auto-punctuate on/off - When selected, automatically inserts a period (.) when you type two spaces in succession. About phone • View your phone Status. This screen lists a variety of information, including your phone number, the network you are currently using, the type of network, signal strength, whether you are roaming or not, any Wi-Fi addresses you're connected to, and more. • Select Legal information for copyright and licensing information, as well as the Google Terms of Service for the Google applications on your phone. • Read about the Contributors to the Android phone. • View the model number and version information for your phone. Data synchronization Some Google applications on your phone (Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts) give you access to the same personal information that you can add, view, and edit on your computer using Google Web applications. This means that when you add, change, or delete your information in any of these applications on the Web, the updated information also appears on your phone, and vice versa. Also, if you lose your phone or if your phone is destroyed, your personal information is not lost and will appear, as before, on a replacement phone. This mirroring of information happens through over-the-air data synchronization, or data "syncing". Data syncing occurs in the background and shouldn't ever get in your way. You'll know your data is being synchronized when you see this icon in the status bar: . Because sending large amounts of data back and forth over the air can take time and require considerable bandwidth, there are some settings on the phone that allow you to control data sync.
