representative.
1. Phone memory

data, such as applications or messages, to
make more memory available.
To uninstall applications:
Touch > Apps tab > Settings >
Apps from the DEVICE category.
Once all applications appear, scroll to
and select the application you want to
uninstall.

having running constantly in the background.
You can monitor how applications and
system resources consume battery power.
Extending your phone's battery life:
Turn off radio communications you are not
using. If you are not using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
or GPS, turn them off.

Some applications you have downloaded
may reduce battery power.
To check the battery power level:
Touch > Apps tab > Settings >
About phone under SYSTEM > Status

and level (percentage charged) are
displayed.
To monitor and control how battery
power is being used:

> Power Saver from the DEVICE >
24
Battery use category under BATTERY
INFORMATION.
Battery usage time is displayed on the
screen. It tells you how long it has been
since you last connected your phone to a
power source or, if currently connected, how
long the phone was last running on battery
power. The screen shows the applications or
services using battery power, listed in order
from the greatest to smallest amount used.
3. Using folders

folder. Drop one app icon over another on
a Home screen, and the two icons will be
combined.

4. Before installing an open
source application and OS
WARNING
If you install and use an OS other than
the one provided by the manufacturer, it
may cause your phone to malfunction.
In addition, your phone will no longer be
covered by the warranty.
WARNING
To protect your phone and personal
data, only download applications from
trusted sources, such as Android
Market™. If there are improperly
installed applications on your phone, it
may not work normally or a serious error
may occur. You must uninstall those
applications and all associated data and
settings from the phone.

condition, use a hard reset (factory reset) to
initialise it.

1
2
still holding the Volume down and Power
keys. Then release the power key when the
phone begins to vibrate.
When the LG logo is displayed on the
screen, continue to hold the keys for
around two seconds, and then release
all them at the same time, before the LG
logo disappears.
Do not operate your phone for at least a
minute, while the hard reset is carried out.

back on.

WARNING
If you perform a hard reset, all user
applications, user data and DRM
licences will be deleted. Please
remember to back up any important
data before performing a Hard Reset.
6. Opening and switching
applications
Multitasking is easy with Android because
you can keep more than one application
running at the same time. There's no
need to quit an application before opening
another. Use and switch between several
open applications. Android manages each
application, stopping and starting them as
needed to ensure that idle applications don't
consume resources unnecessarily.
To view the list of recently used
applications:
Simply press and hold the Home key.
To stop applications:
Touch > Apps tab > Settings >
Apps from the DEVICE > RUNNING tab.
