11 Your first week with your new phone

Finger gestures

Tap	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.
Press and	To open the available options for an item (for example, a contact or
hold	link in a web page), simply press and hold the item.
Swipe or	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 One X sideways. When
	entering text, you can turn HTC One X 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 web page.
Two-finger	In some apps that have sorting, like Mail or People, 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.

Sleep mode

Sleep mode saves battery power by putting HTC One X into a low power state while the display is off. It also stops accidental button presses when HTC One X is in your bag. You’ll still receive messages and calls though, and missed calls and messages appear on the lock screen.

To prevent missed calls or messages from appearing on the lock screen, slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Privacy.

Switching to Sleep mode

Briefly press the POWER button to turn off the display and switch to Sleep mode. HTC One X also automatically goes into Sleep mode when it’s idle for a while.
