30The Basics

Getting started with your AndroidTM phone

The first time you power on your phone, you’re

prompted to touch the Android logo to begin using your phone.

You will be offered a chance to learn about your
phone, you will be prompted to create or to sign
into your Google Account, and you will be asked
to make some initial decisions about how you
want to use Android and Google features.	Touch to begin.

Your Google account

You must sign into a Google Account to use GmailTM, Google TalkTM, Google CalendarTM, and other Google Apps; to download applications from Android MarketTM; to back up your settings to Google servers; and to take advantage of other Google services on your phone.

If you don’t have a Google Account, you will be prompted to create one. If you have an enterprise account through your company or other organization, your IT department may have special instructions on how to sign into that account.

IMPORTANT

•Some applications, such as Calendar, work only with the first Google Account you add. If you plan to use more than one Google Account with your phone, be sure to sign into the one you want to use with such applications first.

When you sign in, your contacts, Gmail messages, Calendar events, and other information from these applications and services on the web are synchronized with your phone.

If you don’t sign into a Google Account during setup, you will be prompted to sign in or to create a Google Account the first time you start an application that requires one, such as Gmail or Android Market.

•If you want to use the backup feature to restore your settings to this phone from another phone that was running Android release 2.0 or later, you must sign into your Google Account now, during setup. If you wait until after setup is complete, your settings will not be restored.
