Setting up HTC Sensation 4G for the first time

When you switch on HTC Sensation 4G for the first time, you’ll be asked to set it up.

Just follow the onscreen instructions and you’ll be up and running in no time.

Some features that need to connect to the Internet such as location-based services and auto-sync of your online accounts may incur extra data fees. Don’t worry. You can enable or disable them in settings later on.

Finger gestures

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.

hold

link in a webpage), simply press and hold the item.

To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically or

slide

horizontally across the screen.

Drag

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.

Flick

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.

Rotate

For most screens, you can automatically change the screen orientation

 

from portrait to landscape by turning HTC Sensation 4G sideways.

 

When entering text, you can turn HTC Sensation 4G sideways to bring

 

up a bigger keyboard.

Pinch

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 webpage.

Two-finger

In some apps that have sorting, like Mail or Contacts, you can use two

scrolling

fingers to scroll the screen. The screen displays the sorting order, and

 

you can easily scroll to the information you want.
