Personalizing your P900

There are a number of ways you can give your P900 a personal touch and change its settings to suit your requirements.

Themes

Themes control the colour of screen and text, the icons, and the background picture. Sound themes control the notification alerts. Four themes are pre-loaded in the P900. Extra themes can be found on the Multimedia for P900 CD.

To change the theme, select Control panel > Device > Themes,

see ‘Themes’ on page 144.

Changing your application shortcuts

You can change and rearrange the five shortcuts to applications, shown in the standby screen when the Flip is closed, and the five first shortcuts in the Application picker area in Flip open (not the Application launcher ). The Flip closed shortcuts can even be hidden, if you wish.

Setting a background picture

You can change the background image for the standby screen in

Control panel > Device > Display. You can use any image stored

internally or on a Memory Stick Duo.

Tip More background images can be found on the Multimedia P900 CD, delivered with your P900.

You can obtain suitable background picture files by downloading, MMS, beaming using Bluetooth or infrared, or transferring them using a cable from your PC.

Background picture images are 208 x 144 pixels and the picture can be seen in the standby screen.(Any chosen picture will be scaled to fit the screen).The images can be JPEG, GIF, BMP, WBMP, MBM or PNG format.
