The top of the Home screen displays icons for the programs that you
have most recently used. The center of the Home screen can display
your next appointment, the number of new messages (voice mail, text,
email or MMS) that you have received and other important information.
When you click an icon or item on the Home Screen, the associated
program opens.

Tip You have three ways to set up the background image:
• Use ActiveSync to copy your favorite picture file to the directory in your
phone: My Device\Application Data\Home. Then, you can select the
picture as the background image through Start > Settings > Home
Screen > Background image.
• Capture a photo using the phone’s Camera(Optional). When viewing
the photo in the Review screen, click Menu > Use as Home Screen
and then follow the on-screen instructions to set the captured photo as
the background image.
• Use the Pictures & Videos program to set up the background image.
See “To set a picture as the Home screen background” in Chapter 7 for
